Heavy metal compounds have toxic and medicinal potential through capacity to form strong specific bonds with macromolecules, and the interaction of platinum drugs at the major groove nitrogen atom of guanine bases primarily underlies their therapeutic acti ...
This thesis is divided in four independent parts related to four different research projects. Each chapter describes one of the multiple aspects covered by organic chemistry, such as the generation of functional interfaces, understanding of biological proc ...
Nowadays, gold compounds constitute a family of very promising experimental agents for cancer treatment. Indeed, several gold(I) and gold(III) compounds were shown to manifest outstanding antiproliferative properties in vitro against selected human tumor c ...
The antiproliferative properties of a group of 13 structurally diverse gold(III) compounds, including six mononuclear gold(III) complexes, five dinuclear oxo-bridged gold(III) complexes, and two organogold(III) compounds, toward several human tumor cell li ...
The design and synthesis of chem. probes to study and to elucidate complex biol. problems is becoming an increasingly important field in chem. We are interested in the repair of O6-alkylated guanines in DNA, a DNA lesion that results from alkylation by S-a ...
Gold(III) compds. constitute an emerging class of biol. active substances, of special interest as potential anticancer agents. During the past decade a no. of structurally diverse gold(III) complexes were reported to be acceptably stable under physiol.-lik ...
The discovery of the anticancer properties of cisplatin in 1965 heralded the development of metallopharmaceuticals and founded a revolution in cancer therapy. Platinum drugs are believed to induce cytotoxicity by cross-linking DNA, causing changes to the D ...
Cisplatin is one of the most important and widely used anticancer drug in clinical use. However, its effectiveness is limited by its high toxicity and incidence of drug resistance. This has provided motivation for the search for transition metal-based drug ...
The therapeutic index of drugs that target DNA, a ubiquitous target present in nearly all cells, is low. Nevertheless, DNA has remained the primary target for medicinal chemists developing metal-based anticancer drugs, although DNA has been essentially aba ...
The present invention relates to a method of treating cancers, especially those showing resistance to classical anti-pro liferative chemotherapy drugs. Further, the invention provides a specific interferon alpha sequential regimen for treating cancers, esp ...
