Antitumor activity of synthetic three copper(II) complexes with terpyridine ligands

Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

Three new synthetic terpyridine copper(II) complexes were characterized. The copper(II) complexes induced apoptosis of three cancer cell lines and arrested T-24 cell cycle in G1 phase. The complexes were accumulated in mitochondria of T-24 cells and caused significant reduction of the mitochondrial membrane potential. The complexes increased both intracellular ROS and Ca2+ levels and activated the caspase-3/9 expression. The apoptosis was further confirmed by Western Blotting analysis. Bcl-2 was down-regulated and Bax was upregulated after treatment with complexes 1-3. The in vivo studies showed that complexes 1-3 obviously inhibited the growth of tumor without significant toxicity to other organs.
