Abstract

Two homologous trinuclear polyamine chelates with either Pt(II) (Ia) or Pd(II) (Ib) were screened for their anticancer properties. Their growth-inhibition activity towards a human tongue epithelioma (HSC-3) was assessed in vitro, and the effect of the cation alteration was determined (IC50 =32 μM for Ib vs 66 μM for Ia).

Keywords: Pt(II), Pd(II), spermidine, anticancer drugs, squamous tongue epithelioma

Navigating the Frontier: Probiotics' Promising Path in Combatting Viral Respiratory Infections, Spotlight on Coronaviridae.

Probiotics, well-known for their role in gut health, show promise in preventing and managing respiratory virus infections, particularly in children and at-risk populations. However, the profound influence of novel pathogenic viral RTIs such as coronaviruses has reshaped perspectives on the potential of probiotics. Despite their potential, significant gaps remain in ...read more
