ROS-Induced SIRT2 Upregulation Contributes to Cisplatin Sensitivity in Ovarian Cancer
Cisplatin resistance remains a significant obstacle for improving the clinical outcome of ovarian cancer patients. Recent studies have demonstrated that cisplatin is an important inducer of intracellullar reactive oxygen species (ROS), triggering cancer ...

In order to form a covalent complex with DNA inside human cells, cisplatin has to overcome the protective environment of a nucleosome, where DNA is complexed with histone proteins. Todd and Lippard (2010) expand our understanding of this process by describing the structure of a nucleosome containing a Pt-DNA adduct, which has important implications for

Treatment of unresectable or metastatic osteosarcoma with cisplatin or cisplatin–doxorubicin [PDF]
Responses and toxicity after treatment with cisplatin and cisplatin-doxorubicin were compared in two groups of patients with unresectable or metastatic osteosarcoma. Complete or partial responses developed in 3 of 18 individuals treated with cisplatin, and in 5 of 19 after the two-drug combination.

Controlling platinum, ruthenium, and osmium reactivity for anticancer drug design [PDF]
The main task of the medicinal chemist is to design molecules that interact specifically with derailed or degenerating processes in a diseased organism, translating the available knowledge of pathobiochemical and physiological data into chemically ...

Developing a highly stable PLGA-mPEG nanoparticle loaded with cisplatin for chemotherapy of ovarian cancer. [PDF]
Cisplatin is a potent anticancer drug, but its clinical application has been limited due to its undesirable physicochemical characteristics and severe side effects.

European mtDNA Variants Are Associated With Differential Responses to Cisplatin, an Anticancer Drug: Implications for Drug Resistance and Side Effects. [PDF]
Background: Cisplatin, a powerful antitumor agent, causes formation of DNA adducts, and activation of apoptotic pathways. Presently, cisplatin resistance develops in up to 70% of patients but the underlying molecular mechanism(s) are unclear and there ...

MCM8-9 complex promotes resection of double-strand break ends by MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 complex. [PDF]
MCM8-9 complex is required for homologous recombination (HR)-mediated repair of double-strand breaks (DSBs). Here we report that MCM8-9 is required for DNA resection by MRN (MRE11-RAD50-NBS1) at DSBs to generate ssDNA.

Trastuzumab‐deruxtecan, a HER2‐targeting antibody‐drug conjugate, shows promising antitumor activity in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma with low HER2 expression. In vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated dose‐dependent cell death and tumor growth reduction in low HER2‐expressing cell lines, which correlated with drug accumulation measured using a

Triplet Chemotherapy with Cisplatin, Docetaxel, and Irinotecan for Patients with Recurrent or Refractory Non-small Cell Lung Cancer [PDF]
We examined the feasibility of triplet chemotherapy using cisplatin, docetaxel, and irinotecan for patients with recurrent or refractory non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), retrospectively.

Human cytomegalovirus infection is common in normal prostate epithelium, prostate tumor tissue, and prostate cancer cell lines. CMV promotes cell survival, proliferation, and androgen receptor signaling. Anti‐CMV pharmaceutical compounds in clinical use inhibited cell expansion in prostate cancer models in vitro and in vivo, motivating investigation ...
