The water-soluble glycofullerenes GF1 and GF2 were synthesized using two-step modified Bingel-Hirsch methodology. Interestingly, we identified buckyballs as a novel class of non-receptor Src kinases inhibitors. The evaluated compounds were found to inhibit Fyn A and BTK proteins with IC50 values in the low micromolar range, with the most active compound at 39 mu M. Moreover, we have demonstrated that formation of protein corona on the surface of [60]fullerene derivatives is changing the landscape of their activity, tuning the selectivity of obtained carbon nanomaterials towards Fyn A and BTK kinases. The performed molecular biology studies revealed no cytotoxicity and no influence of engineered carbon nanomaterials on the cell cycle of PANC-1 and AsPC-1 cancer cell lines. Incubation with the tested compounds resulted in the cellular redox imbalance triggering the repair systems and influenced the changing of protein levels.
