Anticancer Activity of New Copper(ii) Complexes Incorporating a Pyridoxal-Semicarbazone Ligand

Abstract: Three newly synthesized copper complexes with pyridoxal semicarbazone (PLSC), as ligand, after being subjected to biological tests, showed anticancer activity. As ligand PLSC is biologically active, the results of biological activity are as expected. Specifically, an activity was demonstrated in breast cancer cells (MCF7 and MDA MB 231) and proliferative cells (MCF7).

“…Most bacterial diseases can be treated with antibiotics, although antibiotic-resistant strains have started to emerge [22,23]. Cancer is undoubtedly one of the main health concerns facing our society and is a leading cause of death worldwide [24]. It is a disease characterised by the uncontrolled cell proliferation and the ability to invade other tissues and organs [25,26].…”
