Abstract

Coordination polymers have been a hot research topic in the field of biomedicine for their interesting bioactivities. To study the effects of metal ions on the bioactivity of the resulting coordination polymers, in this study, two novel coordination polymers, [Zn4(L)4(bix)4]·n(DMF)·4n(H2O) (1) and [Cd(L)(bix)(H2O)2]n·2n(H2O) (2) (H2L = 5-(1-oxoisoindolin-2-yl)isophthalic acid, bix = 5-(1-oxoisoindolin-2-yl)isophthalic acid, DMF =  N,N′-dimethylformide), have been synthesized by the reactions of H2L, bix and Zn(II) or Cd(II) salts under the solvothermal condition and further characterized via the single crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analyses. The CIE chromaticity diagram indicated that complexes 1 and 2 are excellent blue luminescent materials. Their therapeutic effect with synergistic curcumin on post-stroke depression was explored in the present work. First of all, the analysis of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was exploited for testing the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) content exists in brain. Next, the serotonin transporter relative expression was also analyzed with the detection of real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The experimental results show that the CP 1 could be a better candidate for synergistic curcumin for treating post-stroke depression by increasing 5-HT content and relative expression of serotonin transporter than CP 2.
