- W2557150912 abstract "Molecular inhibitors are commonly employed in natural, synthetic, and biological crystallization as a means of regulating crystal size and habit. In pathological crystallization, growth inhibitors are commonly employed as therapies to decrease the rate of crystal growth, thereby reducing the incidence rate of diseases. When designing inhibitors for such purposes, it is often unknown a priori what properties (e.g., structure, functionality) are critical for drug efficacy and specificity. Identification of lead candidates is often accomplished through brute force screening without knowledge of the molecular-level driving force(s) governing favorable inhibitor–crystal interactions. Here, we present a biomimetic assay to characterize the crystallization of hematin, a critical component of Plasmodium parasite survival in malaria. Many antimalarial drugs have been shown to function as inhibitors that suppress hematin crystal growth. The increasing resistance of malaria parasites to current antimalarials has created an impetus to design alternative drugs; however, current approaches to identify lead candidates rely on combinatorial methods employing parasite assays to screen compounds, which are incapable of elucidating the effect(s) of inhibitors on hematin crystallization. In this study, we use citric-buffer saturated octanol (CBSO) as a physiologically relevant growth medium to develop a facile, robust method of screening compounds that inhibit hematin crystal growth. As benchmarks, we selected antimalarials and antibiotics that are commonly used in combination therapies. We assessed drug solubility in CBSO and designed a biomimetic assay to quantify the relative efficiency of hematin growth inhibitors. We demonstrate that this assay can be used as a high-throughput platform to screen libraries of compounds as a more streamlined approach to identify inhibitors of pathological crystallization." @default.
