Anticancer activity and computational modeling of ternary copper (II) complexes with 3-indolecarboxylic acid and 1,10-phenanthroline

Abstract excerpt

Metal-containing compounds have been extensively studied for many years as potent proteasome inhibitors. The 20S proteasome, the main component of the ubiquitin proteasome pathway, is one of the excellent targets in anticancer drug development. We recently reported that several copper complexes were able to inhibit cancer-special proteasome and induce cell death in human cancer cells. However, the involved...
