Tuning the reactivity of uranium towards small molecules in multimetallic complexes

One of the main goals of organometallic chemistry in the last decades was the activation of small molecule in mild reaction conditions. Even though multiple examples of catalytic cycles able to produce fine chemicals from cheap and abundant sources using t ...

Classification of Metal-Based Drugs according to Their Mechanisms of Action

Paul Joseph Dyson

Metal-based drugs and imaging agents are extensively used in the clinic for the treatment and diagnosis of cancers and a wide range of other diseases. The current clinical arsenal of compounds operate via a limited number of mechanisms, whereas new putativ ...

Application of imaging mass spectrometry approaches to facilitate metal-based anticancer drug research

Paul Joseph Dyson, Anders Meibom, Sarah Theiner

Mass spectrometry imaging is being increasingly used in metal-based anticancer drug development to study elemental and/or molecular drug distributions in different biological systems. The main analytical tools employed are SIMS (especially nanoSIMS), LA-IC ...

Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory-Organometallic Anticancer Compounds

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Emilia Paunescu, Mylène Soudani, Sarah Mcarthur

Compounds that combine metal-based drugs with covalently linked targeted organic agents have been shown, in some instances, to exhibit superior anticancer properties compared to the individual counterparts. Within this framework, we prepared a series of or ...

Metal-based drugs that break the rules

Paul Joseph Dyson, Claire Samantha Allardyce

Cisplatin and other platinum compounds have had a huge impact in the treatment of cancers and are applied in the majority of anticancer chemotherapeutic regimens. The success of these compounds has biased the approaches used to discover new metal-based ant ...

Dinuclear DOTA-Based Gd-III Chelates - Revisiting a Straightforward Strategy for Relaxivity Improvement

Lothar Helm, Shima Karimi

The need for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents with improved relaxivity maintains the development of new Gd-III chelates as an intensive and demanding field of research. In this work, we introduce the new dimeric chelators bis{1,4,7,10-tetra ...

Two-Dimensional Metal-Organic Networks as a New Class of Electrocatalysts

Benjamin Wurster

This thesis deals with the electrocatalytic properties of two-dimensional metal organic coordination networks (2D-MOCNs) self-assembled on electrode surfaces and catalytic activity of 2D-MOCNs is demonstrated for the first time. The low-coordinated metal c ...

Cell-wall-dependent effect of carboxyl-CdSe/ZnS quantum dots on lead and copper availability to green microalgae

Miguel Garcia

The present study examines the effect of carboxyl-CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) on Cu and PI) availability to microalgae with different cell wall characteristics: Chlorella kesslerii possessing a cellulosic cell wall and two strains of Chlamydomonas reinhard ...

Metal-based antitumour drugs in the post-genomic era: what comes next?

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gianni Sava

In our Dalton Transactions Perspective article entitled, 'Metal-based antitumour drugs in the post genomic era', (Dalton Trans., 2006, 1929-1933) we discussed metal-based drugs in light of past decades of research. We concluded that the post-genomic era wo ...

Structural, Spectroscopic, and Thermodynamic Consequences of Anti-Chelate Effect in Nine-Coordinate Lanthanide Podates

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Frédéric Gumy

The connection of three tridentate 2,6-bis(1-ethyl-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine binding units to an extended sulfurcontaining tripodal anchor in the ligand L9 yields nine-coordinate podates [Ln(L9)]3+ upon reaction with trivalent lanthanides, Ln(III). Struct ...

Emerging Protein Targets for Anticancer Metallodrugs: Inhibition of Thioredoxin Reductase and Cathepsin B by Antitumor Ruthenium(II)-Arene Compounds

Paul Joseph Dyson, Christian Hartinger, Angela Casini

A series of ruthenium(II)-arene (RAPTA) compds. were evaluated for their ability to inhibit thioredoxin reductase (either cytosolic or mitochondrial) and cathepsin B, two possible targets for anticancer metallodrugs. In general, inhibition of the thioredox ...

Metal-based antitumour drugs in the post genomic era

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gianni Sava

The discovery of new metal-based antitumor drugs, whether cisplatin derivs. or those based on other metals, has been largely based on cell viability assays (IC50 values) and compds. that bind to DNA. This approach has been applied for more than 30 years du ...
