The interactions of novel mononuclear platinum-based complexes with DNA.

BMC cancer | 2018

Cisplatin has been widely used for the treatment of cancer and its antitumour activity is attributed to its capacity to form DNA adducts, predominantly at guanine residues, which impede cellular processes such as DNA replication and transcription. However, there are associated toxicity and drug resistance issues which plague its use. This has prompted the development and screening of a range of chemotherapeutic drug analogues towards improved efficacy. The biological properties of three novel platinum-based compounds consisting of varying cis-configured ligand groups, as well as a commercially supplied compound, were characterised in this study to determine their potential as anticancer agents.
