- Abstract
In the present study, the interaction of human serum albumin (HSA) with some cardiovascular drugs (CARs) under physiological conditions was investigated via the fluorescence spectroscopic and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The CAR included Captopril, Timolol, Propranolol, Atenolol, and Amiodarone. Cardiovascular drugs can effectively quench the endogenous fluorescence of HSA by static quenching mechanism. The fluorescence quenching of HSA is mainly caused by complex formation of HSA with CAR. The binding reaction of CAR with HSA can be concluded that hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions are the main binding forces in the CAR-HSA system. The results showed that CAR strongly quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA through a static quenching procedure, and nonradiation energy transfer happened within molecules. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy absorption studies showed that the secondary structure was changed according to the interaction of HSA and CAR. The binding reaction of CAR with HSA can be concluded that hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions are the main binding forces in the CAR-HSA system. The results obtained herein will be of biological significance in pharmacology and clinical medicines.
