The Symmetrical Urea Compounds as Chemotherapeutic Agents

Some nitrogen and sulfur containing compounds as chemotherapeutic agents.

Boron-containing compounds as preventive and chemotherapeutic agents for cancer.

In the last few years boron (B) compounds became increasingly frequent in the chemotherapy of some forms of cancer with high malignancy and of inoperable cancers. As more B-based therapy chemicals are developed it is necessary to review the correlation between B and the incidence of different forms of cancer, the biochemical and molecular mechanisms influenced by B and to explore the relevance ...

Enzymes as Chemotherapeutic Agents

Fullerenes as Agents for Chemotherapeutic Drug Delivery

In a world where the scale of technology is continuously shrinking, from phones to cars to solar panels, nanotechnology is seeing a rise in applications. Recently, increased use of nanotechnology in the medical industry brought fullerenes, sometimes referred to as Buckyballs, to the forefront. Fullerenes are currently being developed by engineers to encapsulate a chemotherapeutic drug and deliv...

Quinolines as chemotherapeutic agents for leishmaniasis.

The development of leishmanicidal quinolines and their in vitro (promastigote and amastigote) and, where applicable, in vivo activities are reviewed. This survey provides a direct comparison of bioactivity across different species(e.g. L. donovani, L. amazonensis, L. chagasi, L infantum), and in different animal models (e.g. L. donovani Balb/c mice and L. donovani infected hamsters). The progre...
