Actin functions are crucial for the ability of the cell to execute dynamic cytoskeleton reorganization and movement. Nutraceuticals that form complexes with actin and reduce its polymerization can be used in cancer therapy to prevent cell migration and metastasis of tumors. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of isoflavones to form complexes with actin. Docking simulation and isothermal titration calorimetry were used for this purpose. The formation of complexes by hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic and π-π interactions was demonstrated. Interactions occurred at the ATP binding site, which may limit the rotation of the actin molecule observed during polymerization and also at the site responsible for contacts during polymerization, reducing the ability of the molecule to form filaments. The greatest therapeutic potential was demonstrated by isoflavones occurring in red clover sprouts, i.e., biochanin A and formononetin, being methoxy derivatives of genistein and daidzein.
肌动蛋白的功能对于细胞执行动态细胞骨架重组和运动的能力至关重要。与肌动蛋白形成复合物并减少其聚合的营养保健品可用于癌症治疗,以防止肿瘤细胞迁移和转移。本研究旨在评估异黄酮与肌动蛋白形成复合物的能力。为此目的,使用对接模拟和等温滴定量热法。通过氢键、疏水和π-π相互作用证明了复合物的形成。相互作用发生在 ATP 结合位点,这可能会限制聚合过程中观察到的肌动蛋白分子的旋转,也发生在聚合过程中负责接触的部位,从而降低分子形成纤维的能力。红三叶草芽中存在的异黄酮,即生物黄酮 A 和芒柄花素,是染料木黄酮和大豆苷元的甲氧基衍生物,表现出最大的治疗潜力。
