Rhenium–platinum antitumor systems

This review provides an overlook of design (in short), antitumor and other biological activity of quadruple-bonded cluster dirhenium(III) compounds and their synergism with cisplatin. In particular, we describe the work of the rhenium-platinum antitumor system (introduction of rhenium and platinum c...

description This review provides an overlook of design (in short), antitumor and other biological activity of quadruple-bonded cluster dirhenium(III) compounds and their synergism with cisplatin. In particular, we describe the work of the rhenium-platinum antitumor system (introduction of rhenium and platinum compounds). Among known metal-based anticancer drugs and drug candidates dirhenium(III) compounds differ profoundly due to their strong antiradical and antioxidant properties determined by quadruple bond unsaturation. Such advantages of metal complexes as more expressed redox chemical propertie should be exploited for creating more efficient anticancer drugs. Combination of drugs leads to synergistic effects and/or to lowe­ring toxicity of platinides and is very promising in cancer chemotherapy. The review covers the follo­wing items: design of quadruple bonded dirhenium(III) clusters, their spectral and antiradical properties (in short); interaction of the dirhenium(III) compounds with lipids and formation of liposomes; interaction of the dirhenium(III) compounds with erythrocytes and their antihemolytic activity in the models of hemolytic anemia; anticancer activity of dirhenium clusters and work of the rhenium-platinum antitumor system; antianemic and antioxidant properties of the dirhenium(III) compounds in the model of tumor growth; interaction of the dirhenium(III) compounds with nucleobases and DNA. Some modern trends in the field of bioinorganic and medicinal chemi­stry are also considered regarding their connection to the rhenium-platinum system efficiency: use of combinational therapy and nanomaterials; involvement of some biologically active ligands and redox-activation strategy, etc.
