Abstract

A rationally designed Pt(IV) anticancer compound is described, employing the novel concept of tethering an inhibitor of glutathione-S-transferase, an enzyme associated with Pt-based drug-resistance, to cisplatin. Its enzyme inhibition activity, investigated using spectrophotometric and mass spectrometry-based techniques, and cytotoxic profile in resistant cancer cells are described.
