History shows that metal-based drugs and remedies have been known and used since very
ancient times. For example, silver was employed in the treatment of wounds and ulcers …

Organometallic complexes: these two words jump to the mind of the chemist and are directly
associated with their utility in catalysis or as a pharmaceutical. Nevertheless, to be able to …

Cisplatin, a potent anticancer drug, is usually causing nephrotoxicity; limiting its therapeutic
application and efficiency. Maltol may be used to prevent such toxic effect. The aim of this …

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the hepatoprotective effect of maltol, a food-
flavoring agent, on alcohol-induced acute oxidative damage in mice. Maltol used in this …

Metal complexes in cancer therapy have attracted much interest mainly because metals
exhibit unique characteristics, such as redox activity, metal‐ligand interaction, structure and …

There are a number of uncertainties regarding plasma protein binding and blood distribution
of the active drugs favipiravir (FAVI), molnupiravir (MOLNU) and imatinib (IMA), which were …

The novel metal (II)-based complexes HA-Cu, HA-Co, and HA-Ni with phenanthroline,
sulfamethazine, and aromatic–aromatic coupled disulfamethazines as ligands were …

Various half-sandwich ruthenium (II) arene complexes and rhodium (III) arene complexes
have been intensively investigated due to their prominent anticancer activity. The interaction …

Platinum-based anticancer drugs are most likely the most successful group of bioinorganic
compounds. Their apparent disadvantages have led to the development of anticancer …

The purpose of this research was to evaluate whether maltol could protect from hepatic
injury induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in vivo by inhibition of apoptosis and …
