Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 13Novel Pt(ii) Complexes Containing Pyrrole Oxime, Synthesis, Characterization and Dna Binding Studies(Elsevier, 2014) Erdogan, Deniz Altunoz; Ozalp-Yaman, SenizSince the discovery of anticancer activity and subsequent clinical success of cisplatin (cis-[PtCl2(NH3)(2)]), platinum-based compounds have since been widely synthesized and studied as potential chemotherapeutic agents. In this sense, three novel nuclease active Pt(II) complexes with general formula; [Pt(NH3)CI(L)] (1), [Pt(L)(2)] (2), and K[PtCl2(L)] (3) in which L is 1-H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde oxime were synthesized. Characterization of complexes was performed by elemental analysis, FT-IR, H-1 NMR and mass spectroscopy measurements. Interaction of complexes (1-3) with calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (ct-DNA) was investigated by using electrochemical, spectroelectrochemical methods and cleavage studies. The hyperchromic change in the electronic absorption spectrum of the Pt(II) complexes indicates an electrostatic interaction between the complexes and ct-DNA. Binding constant values between 4.42 x 10(3) and 5.09 x 10(3) M-1 and binding side size values between 2 and 3 base pairs were determined from cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) studies.

The binding interaction of these compounds with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) and human serum albumin (HSA) of the complexes were assessed with UV titration, thermal decomposition, viscometric, and fluorometric measurements. The nature of the binding of the complexes on DNA were revealed as electrostatic interaction between the cationic metal complexes ion and the negative phosphate groups of CT-DNA upon removal of the counter ion, chloride. In addition, our complexes induced a surface contact through the hydrophobic region of protein. Antitumor activity of the complexes against human glioblastoma A172, LN229, and U87 cell lines and human lung A549, human breast MDA-231, human cervix HeLa, and human prostate PC-3 cell lines were investigated by examining cell viability, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and migration/invasion. Cytotoxicity of the complexes was evaluated by MTT test. The U87 and HeLa cells were investigated as the cancer cells most sensitive to our complexes. The exerted cytotoxic effect of dipyridlquinoxalino and dithienylquinoxalino copper(II)/platinum(II) complexes was attributed to the formation of the reactive oxygen species in vitro. It is clearly demonstrated that trans-[(dichloro)bisdithenylquinoxalino]copper (II) (Cu(dtq)) has the highest DNA degradation potential and anticancer effect among the tested complexes by leading apoptosis. Wound healing and invasion analysis results also supported the anticancer activity of Cu(dtq). (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
