Ruthenium polypyridyl complexes as inducer of ROS-mediated apoptosis in cancer cells by targeting thioredoxin reductase.
TrxR is an NADPH-dependent selenoenzyme upregulated in a number of cancers. It plays a pivotal role in cancer progression and represents an increasingly attractive target for anticancer drugs. The limitations of cisplatin in cancer treatment have motivated the extensive investigation to other metal complexes, especially ruthenium (Ru) complexes. In this study, we present the in vitro biological...
متن کاملResolution of oxidative stress by thioredoxin reductase: Cysteine versus selenocysteine
Thioredoxin reductase (TR) catalyzes the reduction of thioredoxin (TRX), which in turn reduces mammalian typical 2-Cys peroxiredoxins (PRXs 1-4), thiol peroxidases implicated in redox homeostasis and cell signaling. Typical 2-Cys PRXs are inactivated by hyperoxidation of the peroxidatic cysteine to cysteine-sulfinic acid, and regenerated in a two-step process involving retro-reduction by sulfir...
متن کاملCloning of thioredoxin h reductase and characterization of the thioredoxin reductase-thioredoxin h system from wheat.
Thioredoxins h are ubiquitous proteins reduced by NADPH- thioredoxin reductase (NTR). They are able to reduce disulphides in target proteins. In monocots, thioredoxins h accumulate at high level in seeds and show a predominant localization in the nucleus of seed cells. These results suggest that the NTR-thioredoxin h system probably plays an important role in seed physiology. To date, the study...
متن کاملDNA Binding and Antitumor Activity of α-Diimineplatinum(II) and Palladium(II) Dithiocarbamate Complexes
The two water-soluble designed platinum(II) complex, [Pt(Oct-dtc)(bpy)]NO(3) (Oct-dtc = Octyldithiocarbamate and bpy = 2,2' -bipyridine) and palladium(II) complex, [Pd(Oct-dtc)(bpy)]NO(3), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductivity measurements, IR, (1)H NMR, and electronic spectra studies. Studies of antitumor activity of these complexes against human cel...
متن کاملThe thioredoxin-thioredoxin reductase system: over-expression in human cancer.
Redox control has emerged as a fundamental biological control mechanism. One of the major redox control systems is the thioredoxin system comprised of thioredoxin (TRX) and thioredoxin reductase (TR). Together they form a powerful system involved in many central intracellular and extracellular processes including cell proliferation, the redox regulation of gene expression and signal transductio...
