A series of luminescent Ir(III) dipyrrinato complexes were synthesized having various aromatic chromophores on the C-5 position of dipyrrin ligand. The presence of different chromophores on the Ir(III) dipyrrinato complexes...
The synthesis and biological studies of BODIPY-GPR peptide conjugate (BD-2) are reported. As compared to the parent BODIPY (BD-1), the peptide linked BD-2showed blue shifted absorption and emission with excellent Stokes shift of 201 nm. Molecular docking studies on EGFR protein kinase indicated very efficient binding affinity of BD-2 as compared to the standard drug (Erlotinib). The cell viability experiments of BD-2on normal (HEK293T) and lung cancer (A549) cell lines indicated 85–95% viability. Bioimaging studies showed that, BD-2was able to penetrate the lung cancer cell line.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
