| Abstract | Platinum-complexes represent some of the most successful groups of clinically used anticancer drugs. Their mechanism of action relies on the formation of stable DNA adducts occurring at the nitrogen in position 7 of guanine (N7) and involving one or two spatially close residues. The formation of stable DNA adducts is recognized as a DNA damaging event and, ultimately, drives cells to death. Nevertheless, nucleobases are not the only reliable targets of these drugs and other biomolecules can be involved. Among them large interest has been devoted to proteins since they contain several potential reactive sites for platinum (His, Met, and Cys) and, in particular, because the reaction of the metal with sulfur containing groups is a kinetically favored process. As a result, the occurrence of protein adducts and DNA–protein cross-links must be further taken into account in order to fully define cisplatin mechanism of action. Herein, we will summarize the most recent experimental evidence collected so far on protein–cisplatin adduct formation to better dissect its correlation with the drug pharmacological profile. Indeed, in addition to modulation of drug bioavailability and toxicity, the potential role of proteins as reaction intermediates or reservoir systems in platinum drugs can be envisaged. Additionally, the effects of Pt-coordinating groups on the chemical reactivity of the metal complexes will be reviewed. From all these outcomes a general model for Pt-based drugs mechanism of action can be drawn which is more articulate than the one currently supported. It claims proteins as reactive intermediates for DNA platination and it defines them as relevant to fully describe the clinical potential of this class of anticancer drugs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
