چکیده
The water-soluble gold(III) complex [Au(III)(butyl-C^N)biguanide]Cl (butyl-HC^N = 2-(4-n-butylphenyl)pyridine, BCN) displays cytotoxicity through S-phase cell cycle arrest and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) damage in HeLa cells, and shows a promising anti-angiogenic effect at sub-cytotoxic concentrations.

Dual anti-angiogenic and cytotoxic properties of ruthenium(III) complexes containing pyrazolato and/or pyrazole ligands.
An oxo-bridged diruthenium(III) complex containing pyrazolato and pyrazole ligands is stable against ascorbic-acid reduction, induces apoptosis (60%, 48 h) against HeLa cells at 10 microM level and exhibits promising anti-angiogenic activity at its sub-cytotoxic concentrations. Other mononuclear ruthenium(III) complexes containing pyrazole ligands [Ru(pz)(4)X(2)](+) exhibit dual anti-angiogenic...
متن کاملEffect of Peptide Derived from Scorpion Toxin on Enhanced Permeability of Doxorubicin Conjugated Gold Nanoparticles in HeLa and MDA-MB-231 Cells
Background: Cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) can enter a cell through the cell membrane, and used in the fields of drug delivery, gene therapy, and cancer therapy by their property transporting various molecules into cytoplasm. Gold nanospheres (GNSs) are a useful tool for molecular imaging, because they are not cytotoxic and have high solubility, excellent light scattering property and ease of...
متن کاملThe Cytotoxic and Synergistic Effects of Flavonoid Derivatives on Doxorubicin Cytotoxicity in Hela, MDA-MB-231, and HT-29 Cancer Cells
Background: Flavonoids have a variety of biological activities, such as anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, free radical scavenging, and anti-mutagenic. Methods: The cytotoxic effects of three synthesized flavonoid derivatives (K3, K4 and K5) were evaluated against Hela , MDA-MB -231 and HT-29 cancer cells using MTT assay. Results: The results showed that these flavonoids were n...
متن کاملElectron Microscopy of Hela Cells after the Ingestion of Colloidal Gold
Tissue cultures of HeLa cells were grown in media containing colloidal gold, and after various intervals, the cells were fixed, embedded, and sectioned for electron microscopy. Uncoated grids with small holes were used in many of the experiments. Intracellular particles of gold were identified in areas surrounded by single membranes, in moderately dense granules, in globoid bodies, and in the c...
متن کاملEncapsulation of dual cytotoxic and anti-angiogenic gold(III) complexes by gelatin-acacia microcapsules: in vitro and in vivo studies.
Encapsulation of the anticancer gold(III) complexes bearing porphyrin or Schiff-base ligands by gelatin-acacia microcapsules confers both sustained-release and rapid-release properties, improved solution stability and/or in vivo efficacy compared to that using the unencapsulated complexes alone.
