Ancillary Ligand Effects On The Anticancer Activity Of Ruthenium(II) Piano Stool Complexes
(2011-01-17)The thesis “Ancillary Ligand Effects on the Anticancer Activity of Ruthenium (II) Piano Stool Complexes” is an effort to design better antitumor metallodrugs based on ruthenium(II) complexes with various H-bond donor/acceptor ... -
Aspects Of The Chemistry Of Oxovanadiulm(IV) Complexes Showing Photo-Induced Cytotoxicity And DNA Cleavage Activity
(2011-07-08)The present thesis deals with different aspects of the chemistry of oxovanadium(IV) complexes, their interaction with DNA and protein and photo-induced DNA and protein cleavage activity and photocytotoxicity. Chapter I ... -
Biomimetic Studies On Anti-Thyroid Drugs And Thyroid Hormone Synthesis
(2009-05-22)Thyroxine (T4), the main secretory hormone of the thyroid gland, is produced on thyroglobulin by thyroid peroxidase (TPO)/hydrogen peroxide/iodide system. The synthesis of T4 by TPO involves two independent steps: iodination ... -
Biomimetic Studies on Tyrosine- and Phenolate- Based Ligands and their Metal Complexes
(2017-11-14)Tyrosine (4-hydroxyphenylalanine) is one of the naturally occurring 22 amino acids. The importance of tyrosine is due to the presence of its phenolic side chain. In biological systems, the tyrosyl residue in proteins is ... -
Deiodination of Thyroid Hormones by Iodothyronine Deiodinase Mimics
(2018-03-26)Thyroxine is the main secretory hormone of thyroid gland and it is produced in thyroglobulin by thyroid peroxidase/hydrogen peroxide/iodide system. After biosynthesis and secretion of thyroxine, it undergoes multiple ... -
Modelling Stochasticity In Selected Biological Processes
(2010-08-16)Biological processes at the cellular level take place in heterogeneous environments, and usually involve only a small number of molecules. They tend to exhibit strong time dependent fluctuations, as a result, and are, ... -
Photocytotoxicity And DNA Cleavage Activity Of Metal Scorpionates And Terpyridine Complexes
(2011-08-22)Scorpionate and terpyridine ligands are of importance in inorganic chemistry for their metal-binding properties. Tris-pyrazolylborate (Scorpionate) ligands that show facial binding mode and steric protection have been ... -
Studies on BODIPY-conjugates of Copper and Zinc for Cellular Imaging and Photodynamic Therapy
Cancer is a dreadful disease that occurs due to the uncontrolled division of abnormal cells. Though there are different therapeutic modalities available for cancer, chemotherapy is considered as the most practiced method. ... -
Studies on Iron and Cobalt Complexes for Cellular Imaging and Photodynamic Therapy
Redox-active transition metal-based prodrug complexes hold great promise as drug delivery systems (DDS) to circumvent drug related toxicity and enhance the overall efficacy of the cytotoxic agents. In this context, ...
