Gold(I) NHC Complexes: Antiproliferative Activity, Cellular Uptake, Inhibition of Mammalian and Bacterial Thioredoxin Reductases, and Gram‐Positive Directed Antibacterial Effects

TL;DR: Gold complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands represent a promising class of metallodrugs for the treatment of cancer or infectious diseases, and antibacterial screening of the gold complexes showed a particularly high activity against Gram-positive strains, reflecting their high dependence on an intact Trx/TrxR system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biscarbene gold(I) complexes: structure–activity-relationships regarding antibacterial effects, cytotoxicity, TrxR inhibition and cellular bioavailability

TL;DR: A series of gold(i) complexes with two N-heterocyclic carbene ligands (biscarbene gold complexes) were prepared and evaluated for their effects against cancer cells and pathogenic bacteria and indicated a strong correlation between cellular bioavailability and antiproliferative effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

A chemical-biological evaluation of rhodium(I) N-heterocyclic carbene complexes as prospective anticancer drugs.

TL;DR: Overall, these studies indicated that Rh(I)-NHC fragments could be used as partial structures of new antitumor agents, in particular in those drugs designed to address resistant malignant tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, Cellular Uptake and Biological Activity Against Pathogenic Microorganisms and Cancer Cells of Rhodium and Iridium N‐Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes Bearing Charged Substituents

TL;DR: Four new N-heterocyclic carbene rhodium and iridium complexes decorated with anionic or cationic pendant groups to increase their water solubility and biological activity have been synthesised and characterised and cellular uptake studies clearly confirmed that the cationIC phosphonium groups facilitated uptake, which was linked with higher biological activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A gold(I) biscarbene complex with improved activity as a TrxR inhibitor and cytotoxic drug: comparative studies with different gold metallodrugs

TL;DR: The novel (NHC)2Au+ complex exhibits substantially lower protein binding in combination with a strongly enhanced cytotoxic activity and represents a substantially improved and selective TrxR inhibitor compared to close structural analogues.
