What is Probing the Binding Reaction of Cytarabine to Human Serum Albumin Using Multispectroscopic Techniques with the Aid of Molecular Docking about?

Cytarabine is a kind of chemotherapy medication. In the present study, the molecular interaction between cytarabine and human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated via fluorescence, UV-vis absorption, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and molecular docking method under simulative physiological conditions. It was found that cytarabine could effectively quench the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA through a static quenching process. The apparent binding constants between drug and HSA at 288, 293 and 298K were estimated to be in the order of 10L·mol. The thermodynamic parameters ΔH°, ΔG°and ΔS° were calculated, in which the negative ΔG°suggested that the binding of cytarabine to HSA was spontaneous, moreover the negative ΔS°and negative ΔH°revealed that van der Waals force and hydrogen bonds were the major forces to stabilize the protein-cytarabine (1:1) complex. The competitive binding experiments showed that the primary binding site of cytarabine was located in the site I (subdomain IIA) of HSA. In addition, the binding distance was calculated to be 3.4nm according to the Förster no-radiation energy transfer theory. The analysis of CD and three-dimensional (3D) fluorescence spectra de
