TLDR
There may be a relationship between cytotoxicity and interstrand cross-linking of cis- and trans-platinum(II) diamminedichloride on L1210 cells.Abstract:
The effects of cis- and trans-platinum(II) diamminedichloride on L1210 cells were investigated using the technique of DNA alkaline elution. Both agents produced reductions in alkaline elution rates which were partially or, in some cases, almost completely reversed by incubation of the cell lysates with proteinase K. The proteinase-sensitive component of this effect is taken to reflect DNA-protein cross-linking, while the proteinase-resistant component of this effect may include interstrand cross-links. The cytotoxicity of the two agents did not correlate with the extent of DNA-protein cross-linking but did appear to correlate with the extent of proteinase-resistant cross-linking; therefore, there may be a relationship between cytotoxicity and interstrand cross-linking.read more

Oxaliplatin: A review of preclinical and clinical studies
TL;DR: Its single agent and combination therapy data in ovarian cancer confirm its non-cross resistance with cisplatin/carboplatin and topoisomerase I inhibitors, and the absence of hematologic dose-limiting toxicity have made oxaliplatin an attractive compound for combinations.

TL;DR: The role of this protein in cancer development and progression is focused on, highlighting the potential role of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family, and an integrated scheme for MKP-1 and MAPK in cancer is proposed.

Mechanism of cytotoxicity of anticancer platinum drugs: evidence that cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) and cis-diammine-(1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylato)platinum(II) differ only in the kinetics of their interaction with DNA.
TL;DR: It was concluded that the CBDCA ligand becomes a more labile leaving group once carboplatin has been monoaquated, and both chloro-ligands of cisplatin were shown to leave at similar rates, while certain cell lines were showed to be much more sensitive to DNA bound platinum.
