Ruthenium (II)[Ru (II)] polypyridyl complexes have been the focus of intense investigations
since work began exploring their supramolecular interactions with DNA. In recent years …

Due to the increasing impact of cancer on worldwide mortality, more and more attention is
being devoted to the investigation of novel anticancer strategies. Among these …

The DNA G-quadruplex is known for forming a range of topologies and for the observed
lability of the assembly, consistent with its transient formation in live cells. The stabilization of …

DNA is a strikingly flexible molecule and can form a variety of secondary structures,
including the triple helix, which is the subject of this review. The DNA triplex may be formed …

Lack of selectivity is one of the main issues with currently used chemotherapies, causing
damage not only to altered cells but also to healthy cells. Over the last decades …

The dinuclear photo-oxidizing RuII complex [{Ru (TAP2)} 2 (tpphz)] 4+(TAP= 1, 4, 5, 8-
tetraazaphenanthrene, tpphz= tetrapyrido [3, 2-a: 2′, 3′-c: 3 ″, 2′′-h: 2‴, 3′′′-j] …

The nitrile containing Ru (II) polypyridyl complex [Ru (phen) 2 (11, 12-dCN-dppz)] 2+(1) is
shown to act as a sensitive infrared probe of G-quadruplex (G4) structures. UV–visible …

Assessment of the DNA photo-oxidation and synthetic photocatalytic activity of chromium
polypyridyl complexes is dominated by consideration of their long-lived metal-centered …

The wide spread of drug-resistant bacteria, especially methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus
aureus (MRSA), poses a tremendous threat to global health. Of particular concern …

The properties of coordination complexes are dictated by both the metals and the ligands.
The use of molecular receptors as second-sphere ligands enables significant modulation of …
