Ruthenium Complex HB324 Induces Apoptosis via Mitochondrial Pathway with an Upregulation of Harakiri and Overcomes Cisplatin Resistance in Neuroblastoma Cells In Vitro

Ruthenium(II) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have recently attracted attention as novel chemotherapeutic agents. The complex HB324 was intensively studied as an apoptosis-inducing compound in resistant cell lines. HB324 induced apoptosis via mitochondrial pathways. Of particular...
