Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 4Characterization of Water Solubility and Binding of Spin Labeled Drugs in the Presence of Albumin Nanoparticles and Proteins by Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy(Wiley-Blackwell, 2022) Sözer, Sümeyra Çiğdem; Akdoğan, YaşarElectron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is an advantageous technique to monitor solubility of drugs in an aqueous solution. In the presence of a drug carrier, the bound and unbound drug fractions can be determined in the same sample simultaneously. To enhance the solubility of hydrophobic drugs, a transporter protein of bovine serum albumin (BSA) can be used directly or in the form of nanoparticle. Moreover, a cationic BSA can be used to enhance anionic drug loading. Here, drugs with different water solubility, salicylic acid (high), ibuprofen (low) and chlorambucil (none) were spin labeled and studied with EPR spectroscopy. Remarkably, it has been shown that albumin nanoparticles are much more effective than albumin proteins in dissolving hydrophobic drugs in water. Furthermore, different drug loading methods were compared, and different from other techniques drug release can be monitored directly from the NPs pellet dissolution by EPR spectroscopy.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Increasing Spontaneous Wet Adhesion of Dopa With Gelation Characterized by Epr Spectroscopy(Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Göksel, Yaman; Akdoğan, YaşarThe presence of water molecules around both adhesive materials and surface results in the hydration barriers that weaken adhesion. In nature, mussels attach to various types of surfaces by using 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) containing mussel foot proteins. DOPA shows wet adhesive properties before and after contribution in the hydrogel formation. Here, the wet adhesive properties of DOPA modified four armed poly (ethylene glycol) polymer (PEG-(DOPA)(4)) and its hydrogels induced by (IO4)(-) or (Cr2O7)(2-) ions are compared by using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy in terms of their surface coverages. In water, spin labeled hydrophobic polystyrene (SL-PS) and hydrophilic silica (SL-SiO2) nanoparticles are prepared, and the percentages of their covered surface values are obtained. Without applying force, the adhesion to SL-PS increases in the order of PEG-(DOPA)(4) < PEG-(DOPA)(4) + (IO4)(-) hydrogel < PEG-(DOPA)(4) + (Cr2O7)(2-) hydrogel with the percentages of surface coverages 65%, 76% and 93%, respectively. Although, neither of PEG-(DOPA)(4) polymer and (IO4)(-) induced PEG-(DOPA)(4) hydrogel adhere to SL-SiO2 nanoparticle spontaneously, (Cr2O7)(2-) induced PEG-(DOPA)(4) hydrogel adhere to SL-SiO2 with a 59% of surface coverage. These results show that gelation mechanisms of DOPA have effect on the spontaneous adhesion of DOPA to the wet surfaces even for the hydrophilic silica surface.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 12The Effect of Dopa Hydroxyl Groups on Wet Adhesion To Polystyrene Surface: an Experimental and Theoretical Study(Elsevier, 2020) Yıldız, Remziye; Özen, Sercan; Şahin, Hasan; Akdoğan, YaşarMussels wet adhesive performance has been arousing curiosity for a long time. It is found that 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) is responsible for adhesive properties of mussels. Despite a large body of research characterizing the interactions DOPA with hydrophilic surfaces, relatively few works have addressed the mechanism of interactions with hydrophobic surfaces. The benzene ring of DOPA is the main attributor to the adhesion on hydrophobic polystyrene (PS) surface. However, here we showed that two hydroxyl groups of catechol have also effects on wet adhesion. We studied wet adhesive properties of DOPA, tyrosine and phenylalanine functionalized PEG polymers, PEG-(N-Boc-L-DOPA)(4), PEG-(N-Boc-L-Tyrosine)(4), PEG-(N-Boc-L-Phenylalanine)(4), on spin labeled PS nanobeads (SL-PS) by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. Surface coverage ratio of SL-PS upon additions of PEG-(N-Boc-L-DOPA)(4), PEG-(N-Boc-L-Tyrosine)(4) and PEG-(N-Boc-L-Phenylalanine)(4) showed that SL-PS was covered with 70%, 50% and 0%, respectively. This showed that spontaneous wet adhesion on PS increases with the number of amino acids hydroxyl groups. This is also supported with the density functional theory (DFT) energy calculations and ab-initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. In water, interactions between water molecules and hydroxyl groups on the catechol induce catechol adhesion via 7C-7C stacking between the catechol and double styrene rings which were already tilted out with water.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Spontaneous Adhesion of Dopa and Tryptophan Functionalized Peg To Polystyrene Nanobeads: an Epr Study(Trans Tech Publications, 2018) Göksel, Yaman; Kırpat, İklima; Akdoğan, YaşarWet adhesion is achieved by mussels so naturally. Their adhesion mechanism has inspired scientists to obtain wet adhesives for a long time. The amino acid 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) produced by mussels adheres to different types of surfaces and also contributes to cohesive interactions. Here, we showed the spontaneous adhesion of DOPA functionalized four armed poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) polymer to spin labeled polystyrene (SL-PS) nanosurfaces by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. In addition to DOPA, adhesion property of another amino acid of tryptophan (Trp) was studied. Trp attached four armed PEG polymers did not adhere to the surface of SL-PS in the force free condition. However, two armed DOPA and two armed Trp functionalized PEG adhere to the PS.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Determination of Force-Free Wet Adhesion of Mussel-Inspired Polymers To Spin Labeled Surface(Elsevier, 2017) Kırpat, İklima; Göksel, Yaman; Karakuş, Erman; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; Akdoğan, YaşarHydration repulsive forces oppose the adhesive interactions, especially in the force-free conditions. Here, we studied spontaneous wet adhesion of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) polymers inspired by marine mussels. Using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, we can monitor spontaneous adhesion of DOPA containing polymer to suspended spin labeled hydrophobic polystyrene nanobeads at molecular level. The surface coverage up to 82% is obtained from EPR measurements. However, in the force-free condition, EPR measurements do not show any detectable DOPA based adhesion to hydrophilic silica nanobead.Article Citation - WoS: 58Citation - Scopus: 86Intrinsic Surface-Drying Properties of Bioadhesive Proteins(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2014) Akdoğan, Yaşar; Wei, Wei; Huang, Kuo-Ying; Kageyama, Yoshiyuki; Danner, Eric W.; Miller, Dusty R.; Martinez Rodriguez, Nadine R.; Waite, J. Herbert; Han, SongiSessile marine mussels must "dry" underwater surfaces before adhering to them. Synthetic adhesives have yet to overcome this fundamental challenge. Previous studies of bioinspired adhesion have largely been performed under applied compressive forces, but such studies are poor predictors of the ability of an adhesive to spontaneously penetrate surface hydration layers. In a force-free approach to measuring molecular-level interaction through surface-water diffusivity, different mussel foot proteins were found to have different abilities to evict hydration layers from surfaces - a necessary step for adsorption and adhesion. It was anticipated that DOPA would mediate dehydration owing to its efficacy in bioinspired wet adhesion. Instead, hydrophobic side chains were found to be a critical component for protein-surface intimacy. This direct measurement of interfacial water dynamics during force-free adsorptive interactions at solid surfaces offers guidance for the engineering of wet adhesives and coatings. Home and dry underwater: Repulsive hydration forces hinder wet adhesion in the absence of applied external forces. The direct measurement of hydration-water dynamics by NMR relaxometry at 10 GHz revealed that the most hydrophobic mussel adhesive protein, and not the most enriched with 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, effectively dries the surface and overcomes repulsive hydration forces to adsorb spontaneously to surfaces in preparation for adhesion.
