Resumo |
Two cationic octanuclear metalla-cubes [Ru(8)(η(6)-C(6)H(5)Me)(8)(tpp-H2)(2)(dhbq)(4)](8+) and [Ru(8)(η(6)-p-iPrC(6)H(4)Me)(8)(tpp-H2)(2)(dhbq)(4)](8+) were prepared and evaluated as dual photosensitizers and chemotherapeutics in cancer cells. In the dark, the complexes presented high cytotoxicity towards only melanoma and ovarian cancer cells. However, the complexes exhibited good phototoxicities toward all cancer cells (1μM concentration, LD(50)=2-7J/cm(2)), thus suggesting a dual synergistic effect with good properties of both the arene ruthenium chemotherapeutics and the porphyrin photosensitizers. |
