Highly promising antitumor agent of a novel Platinum(II) complex bearing a tetradentate chelating ligand
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2020)
A new mononuclear cationic platinum(II) coordination compound with 6,6'-bis(NH-benzimidazol-2-yl)-2,2'-bipyridine (L) ligand having N-4-tetradentate binding pocket [Pt(L)]-Cl-2.2H(2)O (Complex 1) was synthesized and ...
A promising therapeutic combination for metastatic prostate cancer: Chloroquine as autophagy inhibitor and palladium(II) barbiturate complex
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Autophagy is a catabolic process for cells that can provide energy sources and allows cancer cells to evade cell death. Therefore, studies on the combination of autophagy inhibitors with drugs are increasing as a new ...
Mixed ligand complexes of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) with quercetin and diimine ligands: synthesis, characterization, anti-cancer and anti-oxidant activity
(Springer, 2020)
In this work, mixed ligand complexes of Co(II) Ni(II) and Cu(II) were synthesized using quercetin and diimine (1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2 '-bipyiridine) ligands. The obtained Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes are new and the ...
Effective and new potent drug combination: histone deacetylase and Wnt/beta-catenin pathway inhibitors in lung carcinoma cells
(Wiley, 2019)
Lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide with a high mortality rate. In this study, the therapeutic effect of combination valproic acid and niclosamide was investigated on human lung cancer cell line. ...
Development of near-infrared region luminescent N-acetyl-L-cysteine-coated Ag2S quantum dots with differential therapeutic effect
(Future Medicine Ltd, 2019)
Aim: N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) is a free radical scavenger. We developed NAC-coated Ag2S (NAC-Ag2S) quantum dot (QD) as an optical imaging and therapeutic agent. Materials & methods: QDs were synthesized in water. Their ...
Synthesis, characterization, anticancer and antioxidant activity of new nickel(II) and copper(II) flavonoid complexes
(Elsevier, 2019)
Flavonoids are natural products which are known to have biological activity for human health. In this study, new mixed ligand complexes of Ni(II) and Cu(II) were synthesized by using flavonoid (quercetin or naringenin) and ...
Pd(II) and Pt(II) saccharinate complexes of bis(diphenylphosphino) propane/butane: synthesis, structure, antiproliferative activity and mechanism of action
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2018)
[M(sac)(2)(dppp)] (1 and 2), [M(dppp)(2)](sac)(2) (3 and 4) and [M(sac)(2)(dppb)] (5 and 6) complexes, where M = Pd-II (1, 3 and 5) and Pt-II (2, 4 and 6), sac = saccharinate, dppp = 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane and ...
Cancer stem cells : root of the evil
(Begell House Inc., 2019)
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been one of the most attractive research areas over the last two decades due to their important roles in aggressive tumor behaviors. Although CSCs are usually a small subpopulation of tumors ...
Lichens exerts an anti-proliferative effect on human breast and lung cancer cells through induction of apoptosis
(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2019)
Successful cancer treatment still requires new complexes or compounds from natural sources. Therefore, we investigated anti-growth/apoptotic effects of methanol extracts of the lichen species (Xanthoparmelia somloensis ...
Synthesis, structures and anticancer potentials of platinum(II) saccharinate complexes of tertiary phosphines with phenyl and cyclohexyl groups targeting mitochondria and DNA
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2018)
A series of new Pt(II) saccharinate complexes containing PR3 ligands (PPh3, PPh2Cy, PPhCy2 and PCy3) with progressive phenyl (Ph) replacement by cyclohexyl (Cy) were synthesized and structurally characterized by lR, NMR, ...
