The study of the distribution of the cytostatic drugs cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin along the kidney may help to understand their different nephrotoxic behavior. Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) allows the acquisition of trace element images in biological tissues. However, results obtained are affected by several variations concerning the sample matrix and instrumental drifts. In this work, an internal standardization method based on printing an Ir-spiked ink onto the surface of the sample has been developed to evaluate the different distributions and accumulation levels of the aforementioned drugs along the kidney of a rat model. A conventional ink-jet printer was used to print fresh sagittal kidney tissue slices of 4 μm. A reproducible and homogenous deposition of the ink along the tissue was observed. The ink was partially absorbed on top of the tissue. Thus, this approach provides a pseudo-internal standardization, due to the fact that the ablation sample and internal standard take place subsequently and not simultaneously. A satisfactory normalization of LA-ICP-MS bioimages and therefore a reliable comparison of the kidney treated with different Pt-based drugs were achieved even for tissues analyzed on different days. Due to the complete ablation of the sample, the transport of the ablated internal standard and tissue to the inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is practically taking place at the same time. Pt accumulation in the kidney was observed in accordance to the dosages administered for each drug. Although the accumulation rate of cisplatin and oxaliplatin is high in both cases, their Pt distributions differ. The strong nephrotoxicity observed for cisplatin and the absence of such side effect in the case of oxaliplatin could explain these distribution differences. The homogeneous distribution of oxaliplatin in the cortical and medullar areas could be related with its higher affinity for cellular transporters such as MATE2-k.
Despite their immense and rapidly increasing
importance as analytical tools or therapeutic drugs, the detailed
structural features of particular monoclonal antibodies are
widely unknown. Here, an antibody already in use for diagnostic
purposes and for molecular dosimetry studies in cancer therapy
with very high affinity and specificity for cisplatin-induced DNA
modifications was studied extensively. The molecular structure
and modifications as well as the antigen specificity were
investigated mainly by mass spectrometry. Using nano electrospray
ionization mass spectrometry, it was possible to characterize the antibody in its native state. Tandem-MS experiments not
only revealed specific fragments but also gave information on the molecular structure. The detailed primary structure was further
elucidated by proteolytic treatment with a selection of enzymes and high resolution tandem-MS. The data were validated by
comparison with known antibody sequences. Then, the complex glycan structures bound to the antibody were characterized in
all detail. The Fc-bound oligosaccharides were released enzymatically and studied by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization
mass spectrometry. Overall 16 different major glycan structures were identified. The binding specificity of the antibody was
investigated by applying synthetic single and double stranded DNA oligomers harboring distinct Pt adducts. The antibody−
antigen complexes were analyzed by mass spectrometry under native conditions. The stability of the complex with double
stranded DNA was also investigated.
