Mass spectrometric studies of cisplatin‐induced changes of hemoglobin
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study reports on structural changes of hemoglobin (Hb) that were induced by cisplatin binding. Two techniques, nanoelectrospray quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (nanoES-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC/ICPMS), were developed to facilitate this study. Nanospray MS analyses of cisplatin and Hb reaction mixtures demonstrated that the ion at m/z 616.5, the heme group, increased with an increase of cisplatin concentration, indicating the loss of heme groups from the intact protein. This conclusion was also supported by the increase of cisplatin-alpha or -beta complex formation. The change of the Hb-bound Fe was further investigated by monitoring Fe signals using size-exclusion HPLC/ICPMS. After incubation with cisplatin at clinically relevant concentrations, under physiological conditions, the amount of Fe bound to Hb was reduced while formation of cisplatin-Hb complexes increased. Flow-injection ICPMS analysis of the Fe contents in the low molecular weight fraction (<3000 Da) of the reaction mixtures after size fractionation further demonstrated a corresponding increase of Fe with the increase of cisplatin concentrations. HPLC/ICPMS detected three Hb-cisplatin complexes, one of which eluted at the same retention time as Hb while the other two complexes eluted later than Hb. With clinically relevant concentrations of cisplatin (0.05-1.0 microM) and 10 microM of Hb, the concentrations of the Hb-cisplatin complexes were determined in the range 0.1-64 nM. These results, obtained from nanoES-MS, HPLC/ICPMS, and FIA-ICPMS, demonstrate that cisplatin binding to Hb resulted in the dissociation of the heme group from the intact protein.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
