Inhibition of Cell Division in Escherichia coli by Electrolysis Products from a Platinum Electrode

TL;DR: In E. coli, the presence of certain group VIIIb transition metal compounds in concentrations of about 1–10 parts per million of the metal in the culture medium causes an inhibition of the cell division process, which implies that the growth process is not markedly affected.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arene ruthenium(II) complexes formed by dehydrogenation of cyclohexadienes with ruthenium(III) trichloride

TL;DR: In this article, the same authors compared their results with available data on arene exchange in arenetricarbonylchromium complexes and discussed in terms of electronic and steric effects on metal-arene bonding.
Journal ArticleDOI

From bench to bedside – preclinical and early clinical development of the anticancer agent indazolium trans-[tetrachlorobis(1H-indazole)ruthenate(III)] (KP1019 or FFC14A)

TL;DR: The preclinical and early clinical development of KP1019 - from bench to bedside - is recapitulated and promising activity against certain types of tumors is observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Phase I and Pharmacological Study with Imidazolium-trans-DMSO-imidazole-tetrachlororuthenate, a Novel Ruthenium Anticancer Agent

TL;DR: The maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), profile of adverse events, and dose-limiting toxicity of NAMI-A in patients with solid tumors were determined and the ruthenium pharmacokinetic analysis revealed a linear relationship between dose and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of total and unbound rUThenium.
