| Popis: | Exemestane is an irreversible steroidal aromatase inhibitor, typically used to treat breast cancer. As an anti-tumor drug, exemestane has more obvious side effects on the gastrointestinal tract. The purpose of this work is to investigate the combination of exemestane with three important digestive enzymes including pepsin (Pep), trypsin (Try) and α-Chymotrypsin (α-ChT) so as to analyze the mechanism of the gastrointestinal adverse effects causing by exemestane binding. Enzyme activity experiment showed that the enzyme activity of Pep was decreased in the presence of exemestane. Fluorescence spectra revealed that exemestane formed stable complexes with digestive enzymes, and the quenching mechanism of drug-digestive enzymes interaction were all static quenching. The binding constants of Pep, Try and α-ChT at 298 K were 2.34 × 105, 1.45 × 105, and 2.05 × 105 M−1, respectively. Synchronous fluorescence and 3D fluorescence spectroscopy showed that the conformation of exemestane was slightly changed after combining with digestive enzymes, and non-radiative energy transfer occurred. Circular dichroism results indicated that exemestane could change the secondary structure of digestive enzymes via increase the α-helix content and decrease in the β-sheet content. Thermodynamic parameters (ΔH0, ΔS0, and ΔG0) revealed that exemestane interacted with α-ChT through electrostatic force, and the binding force with Pep and Try was van der Waals interactions and hydrogen, which was basically consistent with the molecular docking results. |
