Cationic monofunctional DNA-binding platinum (II) complex with significantly greater anticancer activity than cisplatin, oxaliplatin, and pyriplatin.
Phenanthriplatin is a cationic monofunctional DNA-binding platinum (II) complex with significantly greater anticancer activity (IC50 in μM = 0.035/Ntera2, 0.22/A549, 0.30/HeLa, 0.59/U2OS, 0.74/PC3, 0.94/MCF7, 2.02/HT29; 72 h, MTT assay) than cisplatin, oxaliplatin, and pyriplatin. Enhanced cellular uptake due to its hydrophobic phenanthridine ligand as well as more rapid DNA covalent-binding activity both contribute to its superior anticancer efficacy. Phenanthriplatin binds more effectively to 5′-deoxyguanosine monophosphate than to N-acetyl methionine, whereas pyriplatin reacts equally to both.

Cancer treatment with platinum compounds is an important achievement of modern chemotherapy. However, despite the beneficial effects, the clinical impact of these agents is hampered by the development of drug resistance as well as dose-limiting side effects. The efficacy but

A trans-DDP based monofunctional phenanthridine Pt(ii) complex was synthesized and characterized. Its anticancer activity was studied in vitro on a panel of human cancer cell lines and mouse intestinal cancer organoids. This complex displays significant antitumor properties, with a different

Using primary melanocytes and HEK293 cells, we found that cAMP signaling accelerates repair of bi- and mono-functional platinum-induced DNA damage. Elevating cAMP signaling either by the agonistic MC1R ligand melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH) or by pharmacologic cAMP induction by forskolin

Monofunctional platinum(II) complexes of general formula cis-[Pt(NH(3))(2)(N-heterocycle)Cl]Cl bind DNA at a single site, inducing little distortion in the double helix. Despite this behavior, these compounds display significant antitumor properties, with a different spectrum of activity than that of classic bifunctional

Unlike cisplatin, which forms bifunctional DNA adducts, monofunctional platinum(II) complexes bind only one strand of DNA and might target cancer without causing auditory side-effects associated with cisplatin treatment. We synthesized the monofunctional triamine-ligated platinum(II) complexes, Pt(diethylenetriamine)Cl, [Pt(dien)Cl]+, and Pt(N,N-diethyldiethylenetriamine)Cl, [Pt(Et2dien)Cl]+
