Synthesis of novel heptaplatin derivatives and evaluation of their ability to inhibit proliferation of cancer cell lines

Аннотация

A series of novel heptaplatin derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit growth of two cancer cell lines: human colon carcinoma cell line HCT-8 and human hepatocarcinoma cell line Bel-7402. Majority of the synthesized compounds demonstrated superior activity against cancer cell lines compared to heptaplatin. Specifically, compounds 5a and 5b (5 µg/mL) had more pronounced efficacy against the HCT-8 cell line while 6b and 6c (0.5 µg/mL) had higher efficacy against Bel-7402 cell line.
