| Abstract: | The drug–serum albumin interaction plays a dominant role in drug efficacy and disposition. The glycation of serum albumin that occurs during diabetes may affect its drug‐binding properties in vivo. In order to evaluate the interactivity characteristics of cyanidin‐3‐O‐glucoside (C3G) with human serum albumin (HSA) and glycated human serum albumin (gHSA), this study was undertaken using multiple spectroscopic techniques and molecular modeling analysis. Time‐resolved fluorescence and the thermodynamic parameters indicated that the quenching mechanism was static quenching, and hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals force were the main forces. The protein fluorescence could be quenched by C3G, whereas the polarity of the fluorophore was not obviously changed. C3G significantly altered the secondary structure of the proteins. Furthermore, the interaction force that existed in the HSA–C3G system was greater than that in the gHSA–C3G system. Fluorescence excitation emission matrix spectra, red edge excitation shift, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectra provided further evidence that glycation could inhibit the binding between C3G and proteins. In addition, molecular modeling analysis supported the experimental results. The results provided more details for the application of C3G in the treatment of diabetes. |
