Popis: Two rhodium(III) and iron(III) complexes of 4′-(3-thiophenecarboxaldehyde)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (tpatpy): [Rh(tpatpy)Cl3]·CH3OH (tpatpy-Rh) and [Fe(tpatpy)Cl3] (tpatpy-Fe) have been prepared and characterized. Tpatpy-Rh (5.03 ± 1.15 μM) and tpatpy-Fe (18.02 ± 0.45 μM) exhibited greater cytotoxicity than the tpatpy ligand (70.11 ± 0.28 μM) and cisplatin (61.21 ± 1.39 μM) against SK-OV-3/DDP cells. In addition, tpatpy-Rh inhibited telomerase by down-regulation of c-myc and hTERT, as well as induced SK-OV-3/DDP cell arrest in the S phase.
