AB  - The mechanism of action of most approved drugs in use today is based on their binding to specific proteins or DNA. One
of the achievements of this research is a new perspective for recognition of binding modes to DNA by monitoring of
changes in measured and stoichiometric values of absorbance at 260 nm. UV–Vis and IR spectroscopy, gel electrophoresis
and docking study were used for investigation of binding properties of three dinuclear platinum(II) complexes containing
different pyridine-based bridging ligands, [{Pt(en)Cl}2(μ-4,4’-bipy)]Cl2・2H2O (Pt1), [{Pt(en)Cl}2(μ-bpa)]Cl2・4H2O (Pt2)
and [{Pt(en)Cl}2(μ-bpe)]Cl2・4H2O (Pt3) to DNA (4,4’-bipy, bpa and bpe are 4,4′-bipyridine, 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane and
1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene, respectively). In contrast to the system with well-known intercalated ligand (EtBr), covalently bound
ligand (cis-Pt) and with minor groove binder (Hoechst 33258), which do not have significant differences in measured and
stoichiometric values, the most pronounced deviations are recorded for two dinuclear platinum(II) complexes (Pt1 and Pt2),
as a consequence of complex binding to the phosphate backbone and bending of DNA helix. The hydrolysis of complexes
and changes in DNA conformation were also analysed as phenomena that may have an impact on the changes in absorbance.

AB  - New anticancer platinum(II) compounds simultaneously targeting tumor cells and tumor-derived neoangiogenesis, with new DNA interacting mode and large therapeutic window are appealing alternative to improve efficacy of clinical platinum chemotherapeutics. Herein, we describe three novel dinuclear [{Pt(en)Cl}2(μ-L)]2+ complexes with different pyridine-like bridging ligands (L), 4,4′-bipyridine (Pt1), 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane (Pt2) and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene (Pt3), which highly, positively charged aqua derivatives, [{Pt(en)(H2O)}2(μ-L)]4+, interact with the phosphate backbone forming DNA-Pt adducts with an unique and previously undescribed binding mode, called a minor groove covering. The results of this study suggested that the new binding mode of the aqua-Pt(II) complexes with DNA could be attributed to the higher anticancer activities of their chloride analogues. All three compounds, particularly complex [{Pt(en)Cl}2(μ-4,4′-bipy)]Cl2·2H2O (4,4′-bipy is 4,4′-bipyridine) (Pt1), overcame cisplatin resistance in vivo in the zebrafish–mouse melanoma xenograft model, showed much higher therapeutic potential than antiangiogenic drug sunitinib malate, while effectively blocking tumor neovascularization and melanoma cell metastasis. Overall therapeutic profile showed new dinuclear Pt(II) complexes could be novel, effective and safe anticancer agents. Finally, the correlation with the structural characteristics of these complexes can serve as a useful tool for developing new and more effective anticancer drugs.

AB  - The synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, cytotoxic activity and DNA binding evaluation of seven new dinuclear platinum(ii) complexes Pt1-Pt7, with the general formula [{Pt(L)Cl}(2)(-1,5-nphe)](ClO4)(2) (1,5-nphe is 1,5-naphthyridine; while L is two ammines (Pt1) or one bidentate coordinated diamine: ethylenediamine (Pt2), (+/-)-1,2-propylenediamine (Pt3), trans-(+/-)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (Pt4), 1,3-propylenediamine (Pt5), 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propylenediamine (Pt6), and 1,3-pentanediamine (Pt7)), were reported. In vitro cytotoxic activity of these complexes was evaluated against three tumor cell lines, murine colon carcinoma (CT26), murine mammary carcinoma (4T1) and murine lung cancer (LLC1) and two normal cell lines, murine mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and human fibroblast (MRC-5) cells. The results of the MTT assay indicate that all investigated complexes have almost no cytotoxic effects on 4T1 and very low cytotoxicity toward LLC1 cell lines. In contrast to the effects on LLC1 and 4T1 cells, complexes Pt1 and Pt2 had significant cytotoxic activity toward CT26 cells. Complex Pt1 had a much lower IC50 value for activity on CT26 cells compared with cisplatin. In comparison with cisplatin, all dinuclear Pt1-Pt7 complexes showed lower cytotoxicity toward normal MSC and MRC-5 cells. In order to measure the amount of platinum(ii) complexes taken up by the cells, we quantified the cellular platinum content using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-QMS). Molecular docking studies performed to evaluate the potential binding mode of dinuclear platinum(ii) complexes Pt1-Pt7 and their aqua derivatives W1-W7, respectively, at the double stranded DNA showed that groove spanning and backbone tracking are the most stable binding modes.
