The Effects of the Stereochemistry of Ruthenium (II) Polypyridyl Complexes on Microtubules as Targets for Chemotherapy
(2019-05-16)Ruthenium polypyridyl complexes (RPCs) are promising anticancer agents due to their robustness and tunability of their polypyridyl ligands. Their axial chirality generally allows for more selective binding to biological ... -
The Role of HOTAIR in Skeletal Muscle Myogenesis
(2016-07-19)Skeletal muscle function is a vital requirement for an enriched healthy life. For years the molecular processes governing myogenesis and the development of skeletal muscle were primarily associated with proteins. In recent ... -
Towards Establishing The Mechanism Of DNA Cleavage By Redox-active Ruthenium(II) Polypyridyl Complexes
In earlier reports, it was established that ruthenium (II) polypyridyl complexes RPCs, [Ru(tatpp)]²⁺ (3²⁺) and [Ru(tatpp)Ru]⁴⁺ (4⁴⁺) show potent antitumor properties in vivo in nude mouse lung cancer models.² These RPC's ... -
Toxicity study of CaCe₂S₄
(2017-08-07)In recent years, rare earth sulfides have received attention for their interesting thermoelectric and optical properties.1 They exhibit a fairly wide range of colors, which makes them promising candidates as pigments.2 ... -
TUNING THE SOLUBILITY, CELLULAR-UPTAKE AND ACTIVITY OF MICROTUBULE STABILIZING RUTHENIUM POLYPYRIDYL COMPLEXES
(2021-08-06)Many Ru(II) Polypyridyl Complexes (RPCs) are being investigated as they show potent cytotoxicity and acceptable toleration in animals. Some of these RPCs are thought to target DNA and/or mitochondria in cells. Recently, ... -
Volatiles Characterization during Whiskey Production using Headspace - Solid Phase Microextraction - Gas Chromatography - Mass Spectrometry
(2021-12-21)Whiskey is the second most consumed distilled alcoholic beverage type, by brand, on the planet behind Chinese Baijiu. A prominent component in many varieties of whiskey, maize, contributes a wide profile of compounds that ...
