Journal ArticleDOI

Anticancer activity of metal complexes: involvement of redox processes.

TL;DR: The aim of this review is to highlight specific interactions of metal-based anticancer drugs with the cellular redox homeostasis and to explain this behavior by considering chemical properties of the respective anticancer metal complexes currently either in (pre)clinical development or in daily clinical routine in oncology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resistance against novel anticancer metal compounds: differences and similarities

TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge on drug resistance mechanisms against novel metal compounds (including platinum, arsenic, ruthenium, gallium, titanium, copper, and lanthanum drugs), and addresses the question whether there might exist a general metal-drug resistance phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intracellular protein binding patterns of the anticancer ruthenium drugs KP1019 and KP1339

TL;DR: The data indicate that KP1019 and KP1339 rapidly enter tumor cells, followed by binding to larger protein complexes/organelles, and consequently a unique mode of action for the ruthenium drugs investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Organometallic anticancer complexes of lapachol: metal centre-dependent formation of reactive oxygen species and correlation with cytotoxicity

TL;DR: Organometallic Ru(II), Os(II) and Rh(III) complexes of lapachol induce apoptosis in human tumour cell lines in the low μM range by a mode of action involving oxidative stress, especially in the case of the ruthenium compound.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ruthenium compound KP1339 potentiates the anticancer activity of sorafenib in vitro and in vivo.

TL;DR: The combination of KP1339 with sorafenib displays promising activity in vitro and in vivo especially against human hepatoma models, and several mechanisms were found to underlie these multifaceted synergistic activities.
