Entendiendo que actualmente no existe una verdadera adecuación entre la educación y la formación es decir que evidentemente hoy en día la relación es más distante, por lo que se requiere destacar la necesidad de una capacitación básica de calidad de toda la población, que aún no hemos sido capaces de ofrecer. Resulta interesante la concepción del trabajo como algo que no solamente produce bienes materiales, sino también servicios indispensables para el acceso a la calidad de vida, y cualidades de la convivencia tales como integración, cohesión social y democracia. De ahí que por formación en el trabajo está entendiendo una educación integral, que en algunas ocasiones, el mundo académico debe ofrecer una formación con aplicación de conocimientos en distintos campos. El trabajo, lejos de ser un factor de producción decisivo, ”se torna esencialmente la puesta en marcha de una competencia adquirida al precio de una formación relativamente larga y que debe ser actualizada sin cesar a lo largo de la vida, y esto para cada tipo de calificación” (Blanc, Boletín Cinterfor Jacques Gaude) Las diferencias de competitividad entre las naciones dependen de las diferencias de competencias del capital humano, en otras palabras, las claves de la competitividad residen, en gran parte, en la calidad del sistema de formación y de investigación, evidentemente crucial para la constitución de una existencia de competencias y en sus relaciones diversas con la inversión. Lo que no es posible lograr si no se dispone de una visión de futuro donde la inversión sea la necesaria para los requerimientos de una formación más amplia y continua en función de los imperativos del crecimiento de un país.

17 p.-8 fig.-1 tab., Allergic reactions to antibiotics are a major concern in the clinic. ß-lactam antibiotics are the class most frequently reported to cause hypersensitivity reactions. One of the mechanisms involved in this outcome is the modification of proteins by covalent binding of the drug (haptenation). Hence, interest in identifying the corresponding serum and cellular protein targets arises. Importantly, haptenation susceptibility and extent can be modulated by the context, including factors affecting protein conformation or the occurrence of other posttranslational modifications. We previously identified the glycolytic enzyme α-enolase as a target for haptenation by amoxicillin, both in cells and in the extracellular milieu. Here, we performed an in vitro study to analyze amoxicillin haptenation of α-enolase using gel-based and activity assays. Moreover, the possible interplay or interference between amoxicillin haptenation and acetylation of α-enolase was studied in 1D- and 2D-gels that showed decreased haptenation and displacement of the haptenation signal to lower pI spots after chemical acetylation of the protein, respectively. In addition, the peptide containing lysine 239 was identified by mass spectrometry as the amoxicillin target sequence on α-enolase, thus suggesting a selective haptenation under our conditions. The putative amoxicillin binding site and the surrounding interactions were investigated using the α-enolase crystal structure and molecular docking. Altogether, the results obtained provide the basis for the design of novel diagnostic tools or approaches in the study of amoxicillin-induced allergic reactions., This work was supported by grants from the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación cofunded by ERDF (SAF2015-68590-R and RTI2018-097624-B-I00 to DPS and PCI2019-111825-2 Proyectos de I+D+I “Programación Conjunta Internacional” EuroNanoMed 2019 and PID2019-104293GB-I00 to EI), the Instituto de Salud Carlos III ERDF (RETIC ARADyAL RD16/0006/0021 to DPS, RETIC ARADyAL RD16/0006/0001 to MS and MIM, CPII20/00028 to MIM and RETIC ARADyAL RD16/0006/0012 to EPI, and CPII20/00028 to MIM), Junta de Andalucía and Universidad de Málaga (UMA18-FEDERJA-007 to EPI), Consejería de Transformación Económica, Industria, Conocimiento y Universidades of Junta de Andalucía (PY20_00384 to EPI).

16 p.-6 fig., Clavulanic acid (CLV) and amoxicillin, frequently administered in combination, can be independently involved in allergic reactions. Protein haptenation with β-lactams is considered necessary to activate the immune system. The aim of this study was to assess the suitability of biotinylated analogues of CLV as probes to study protein haptenation by this β-lactam. Two synthetic approaches afforded the labeling of CLV through esterification of its carboxylic group with a biotin moiety, via either direct binding (CLV-B) or tetraethylenglycol linker (CLV-TEG-B). The second analogue offered advantages as solubility in aqueous solution and potential lower steric hindrance for both intended interactions, with the protein and with avidin. NMR reactivity studies showed that both CLV and CLV-TEG-B reacts through β-lactam ring opening by aliphatic amino nitrogen, however with different stability of resulting conjugates. Unlike CLV conjugates, that promoted the decomposition of clavulanate fragment, the conjugates obtained with the CLV-TEG-B remained linked, as a whole structure including biotin, to nucleophile and showed a better stability. This was a desired key feature to allow CLV-TEG-B conjugated protein detection at great sensitivity. We have used biotin detection and mass spectrometry (MS) to detect the haptenation of human serum albumin (HSA) and human serum proteins. MS of conjugates showed that HSA could be modified by CLV-TEG-B. Remarkably, HSA preincubation with CLV excess only reduced moderately the incorporation of CLV-TEG-B, which could be attributed to different protein interferences. The CLV-TEG-B fragment with opened β-lactam was detected bound to the 404–430HSA peptide of the treated protein. Incubation of human serum with CLV-TEG-B resulted in the haptenation of several proteins that were identified by 2D-electrophoresis and peptide mass fingerprinting as HSA, haptoglobin, and heavy and light chains of immunoglobulins. Taken together, our results show that tagged-CLV keeps some of the CLV features. Moreover, although we observe a different behavior in the conjugate stability and in the site of protein modification, the similar reactivity indicates that it could constitute a valuable tool to identify protein targets for haptenation by CLV with high sensitivity to get insights into the activation of the immune system by CLV and mechanisms involved in β-lactams allergy., Work at MJT and MIM laboratory was supported by Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) of MICINN (grants cofunded by ERDF: “Una manera de hacer Europa” (PI17/01237, PI18/00095, RETIC ARADYAL RD16/0006/0001 and Euronanomed Program AC19/00082), Miguel Servet I program (CP15/00103) and Sara Borrell program (CD17/00146)), Andalusian Regional Ministry of Health (PI-0179-2014, PE-0172-2018).

16 p.-7 fig.-2 tab.-1 graph. abst., Serum and cellular proteins are targets for the formation of adducts with the β-lactam antibiotic amoxicillin. This process could be important for the development of adverse, and in particular, allergic reactions to this antibiotic. In studies exploring protein haptenation by amoxicillin, we observed that reducing agents influenced the extent of amoxicillin-protein adducts formation. Consequently, we show that several thiol-containing compounds, including dithiothreitol, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, and glutathione, perform a nucleophilic attack on the amoxicillin molecule that is followed by an internal rearrangement leading to amoxicillin diketopiperazine, a known amoxicillin metabolite with residual activity. Increased diketopiperazine conversion is also observed with human serum albumin but not with L-cysteine, which mainly forms the amoxicilloyl amide. The effect of thiols is catalytic and can render complete amoxicillin conversion. Interestingly, this process is dependent on the presence of an amino group in the antibiotic lateral chain, as in amoxicillin and ampicillin. Furthermore, it does not occur for other β-lactam antibiotics, including cefaclor or benzylpenicillin. Biological consequences of thiol-mediated amoxicillin transformation are exemplified by a reduced bacteriostatic action and a lower capacity of thiol-treated amoxicillin to form protein adducts. Finally, modulation of the intracellular redox status through inhibition of glutathione synthesis influenced the extent of amoxicillin adduct formation with cellular proteins. These results open novel perspectives for the understanding of amoxicillin metabolism and actions, including the formation of adducts involved in allergic reactions., This work was supported by grant SAF2015-68590-R from MINECO/FEDER, RTI2018-097624-B-I00 and RETIC Aradyal from ISCIII/FEDER RD16/0006/0021 to DP-S; RD16/0006/0001 to MT, RD16/0006/0024 to MB; grants CP15/00103 and PI17/ 01237 from ISCIII/ERDF and PI-0179-2014 from Andalusian Regional Ministry Health to MM.

12 p.-6 fig.-1 graf. abst., BACKGROUND: Selective reactions to clavulanic acid (CLV) account for around 30% of immediate reactions after administration of amoxicillin-CLV. Currently, no immunoassay is available for detecting specific IgE to CLV, and its specific recognition in patients with immediate reactions has only been demonstrated by basophil activation testing, however with suboptimal sensitivity. The lack of knowledge regarding the structure of the drug that remains bound to proteins (antigenic determinant) is hampering the development of in vitro diagnostics. We aimed to identify the antigenic determinants of CLV as well as to evaluate their specific IgE recognition and potential role for diagnosis., METHODS: Based on complex CLV degradation mechanisms, we hypothesized the formation of two antigenic determinants for CLV, AD-I (N-protein, 3-oxopropanamide) and AD-II (N-protein, 3-aminopropanamide), and designed different synthetic analogs to each one. IgE recognition of these structures was evaluated in basophils from patients with selective reactions to CLV and tolerant subjects. In parallel, the CLV fragments bound to proteins were identified by proteomic approaches., RESULTS: Two synthetic analogs of AD-I were found to activate basophils from allergic patients. This determinant was also detected bound to lysines 195 and 475 of CLV-treated human serum albumin. One of these analogs was able to activate basophils in 59% of patients whereas CLV only in 41%. Combining both results led to an increase in basophil activation in 69% of patients, and only in 12% of controls., CONCLUSION: We have identified AD-I as one CLV antigenic determinant, which is the drug fragment that remains protein-bound., The present study has been supported by Institute of Health “Carlos III” of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (grants cofunded by European Regional Development Fund (ERDF): PI12/02529, PI15/01206, CP15/00103, RETICs RIRAAF RD12/0013/0001, RD12/0013/0003 and RD12/0013/0008, RETIC ARADYAL RD16/0006/0001, RD16/0006/0012 and RD16/0006/0021, Biobank Network RD09/0076/00112, and Biobank platform PT13/0010/0006) and by State Secretariat for Research, Development and Innovation of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (grants cofunded by European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), “Una manera de hacer Europa”: MINECO SAF2012-36519, SAF2015-68590R, CTQ2013-41339P, and CTQ2016-75870P).
