Copper in cancer: friend or foe? Metabolism, dysregulation, and therapeutic opportunities
Cancer Communications, EarlyView.Abstract Copper, one of the essential nutrients for the human body, acts as an electron relay in multiple pathways due to its redox properties. Both deficiencies and excesses of copper lead to cellular fragility. Therefore, it can manifest pro‐ and anti‐cancer properties in tumors. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the copper activity within the cell.

Macrocycles of Saxitoxin: Insights into the Structure of Zetekitoxin AB
ChemBioChem, EarlyView.Synthetic macrocycles of (+)‐saxitoxin, the causative agent of paralytic shellfish poisoning, have been prepared. These are designed to mimic the macrocyclic core of the proposed structure for zetekitoxin AB. Interestingly, these synthetic macrocycles do not form the C12 hydrate as commonly observed in this family of toxins, casting doubt on the ...
