“…Nonetheless, many questions still remain open about what could occur to copper thiosemicarbazones in the complex intracellular environment: it is unclear if these compounds retain their structural integrity inside cell or if the metal ion is released from the ligand, after the reduction from Cu(II) to Cu(I) [23,25]. An increase of copper concentration inside cells results in general poisoning, inhibition of DNA synthesis and oxidative phosphorylation as well as widespread oxidation of thiols to disulfides [26].…”

“…They possess strong antineoplastic activity against a number of transplantable tumors, spontaneous murine tumors and human tumors. The mechanism of their antitumor action is thought to involve either inhibition of the enzyme ribonucleotide reductase, an obligatory enzyme in DNA synthesis [5][6][7], or creation of lesions in DNA strands [8]. The antifungal activity of Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes with 5-nitro-2-furfural thiosemicarbazone has been demonstrated [9,10].…”

“…The proposed method in current work consisted of making potentiometric measurments of hydrogen ion concentration solution of AMB in the presence and absence of the studied metal ions [30]. The titration was performed in the presence of 0.1 M sodium nitrate.…”
