Relaxation Dynamics of Piroxicam Structures within Human Serum Albumin Protein

Description
Summary:We report on steady-state and ps-time-resolved emission studies of piroxicam (1) drug within human serum albumin (HSA) protein in cyclodextrin and in neat solvents. The steady-state results indicate that 1 binds to HSA protein and that two binding sites are involved. The fluorescence decays corresponding to site I in subdomain IIA and to site II in subdomain IIIA have time constants of ∼60 ps and ∼360 ps, respectively. The results suggest that the anion forms bind to site I, whereas the zwitterionic ones bind to site II. The energy-transfer process from excited tryptophan to 1 can occur with moderate efficiency (50%). The rotational time of 1 encapsulated by HSA indicates diffusion within the protein. These findings can be used for a better understanding of piroxicam and HSA interactions.
