Induction of apoptosis by Fe(salen)Cl through caspase-dependent pathway specifically in tumor cells
Iron-based compounds possess the capability of inducing cell death due to their reactivity with oxidant molecules, but their specificity towards cancer cells and the mechanism of action are hitherto less investigated. A Fe(salen)Cl derivative has been synthesized that remains active in monomer form....
