Abstract:

For investigation of in vitro DNA damage protection activity four novel dinucler cis- and transplatin-L-Zn(terpy), where bridging ligand L = pyrazine or 4,4’-bipyridyl, were synthesized. DNA protective effect of the complexes at various concentrations (25, 50, 100, 200 and 400 μg/mL) against the hydroxyl and peroxyl radicals-induced DNA damage were determined using two different in vitro antioxidant assays. Dinuclear complexes exhibited moderate to high DNA-protective effects which depend on the geometry of [PtCl₂(NH₃)₂] complexes as well as the type of the bridging ligand.

Keywords: cisplatin; transplatin, Zn(terpy) complexes; DNA damage; hydroxyl radical; peroxyl radical
