The control of ion transport across membranes is a key function in living cells. Chloride, the<br />

most abundant anion in physiological solutions, is usually transported by a variety of <strong>di</strong>fferent<br />

anion transport proteins buried into the membranes, being the largest family of these the ClC<br />

proteins. Recently, numerous <strong>di</strong>seases have been associated with malfunction of anion<br />

channels, notably the cystic fibrosis, the most extended genetic <strong>di</strong>sease among Caucasians.<br />

Development of molecules or synthetic systems capable of alternative transport might have<br />

therapeutic potential if a <strong>di</strong>sease is due to malfunction of natural anion channels. Moreover,<br />

transport is expected to mo<strong>di</strong>fy the concentration gra<strong>di</strong>ents across cell membranes, thus<br />

potentially inducing physiological effects. 1<br />

We have synthesized a family of isophthalamide derivatives and stu<strong>di</strong>ed their anion bin<strong>di</strong>ng<br />

properties in solution and their chloride transport activity in model EYPC liposomes. 2 The<br />

presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonds in 4,6-<strong>di</strong>hydroxy-isophthalamides stabilizing a synsyn<br />

conformation of the amide groups resulted in an enhanced anion affinity and a remarkable<br />

transport activity. Noteworthy, this activity can be modulated as function of the pH. A detailed<br />

account of this work will be presented within this communication.<br />

Geminal <strong>di</strong>phosphonates are strongly adsorbed on surfaces of many inorganic oxides and<br />

salts.[1,2] Their strong sorption on the surface of hydroxyapatite (HA) – a main inorganic<br />

component of bones predeterminates their most important application – treatment of <strong>di</strong>seases<br />

connected with <strong>di</strong>sorder of calcium metabolism (osteoporosis, Paget <strong>di</strong>sease and others).<br />

We have synthesized and stu<strong>di</strong>ed three ligands, combining a <strong>di</strong>phosphonic acid group with a<br />

DOTA-core – BPAMD [3], BPAPD and BPPED. Presence of a DOTA core makes these<br />

compounds extremely suitable for ra<strong>di</strong>ochemical stu<strong>di</strong>es as ra<strong>di</strong>olabeling proceeds via<br />

complexation. Ra<strong>di</strong>olabeled Tb(III) complexes of the ligands were used for study of an<br />

interaction between bisphosphonate acid group and HA surface.<br />

Tb(III)-BPAPD complex has also been used as a probe for a study of the interaction between<br />

HA and a group of other <strong>di</strong>phosphonates via competitive sorption. To describe the competition<br />

of two <strong>di</strong>phosphonates during sorption, a physicochemical model based on the Langmuir and on<br />

the Langmuir–Freundlich adsorption isotherm was evaluated and successfully applied.<br />
