Ruthenium Complexes With Piplartine Cause Apoptosis Through MAPK Signaling by a p53-Dependent Pathway in Human Colon Carcinoma Cells and Inhibit Tumor Development in a Xenograft Model

Ruthenium complexes with piplartine, [Ru(piplartine)(dppf)(bipy)](PF6)2 (1) and [Ru(piplartine)(dppb)(bipy)](PF6)2 (2) (dppf = 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino) ferrocene; dppb = 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane and bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine), were recently synthesized and displayed more potent cytotoxicity t...
