Disease relevance of K2PtCl4

  • In contrast, K2PtCl4 and Rh-123 given i.p. produced very short growth delays at normal temperatures and these growth delays were not enhanced by hyperthermia [1].
  • When ascites cells collected from mice, pretreated in vivo with platinum compounds, were used, the enzyme assay showed that the inhibition is strongest in the case of cis-DDP and K2PtCl4 (about 90% inhibition) [2].
 

High impact information on K2PtCl4

  • The use of hyperthermia with CDDP, however, did not lower survivals in the SCC-25/CP cells even to the levels seen in the parent line at 37 degrees C. The cytotoxicities of K2PtCl4 and rhodamine 123 were essentially the same in the CDDP-sensitive and -resistant cells at all temperatures tested [3].
  • K2PtCl4 crosslinks CRE to CREB and TRE to JUN. The extent of crosslinking is about eight times greater than that observed with standard oligodeoxynucleotides and amounts to 30-50% of the efficiency of non-covalent association as estimated by gel-shift assays [4].
  • The crosslinking reaction is specific--a dumbbell oligonucleotide with six phosphorothioate groups introduced into the Sp1 recognition sequence could not be crosslinked efficiently to CREB or JUN proteins with K2PtCl4 [4].
  • The binding of TRE to CREB is not strong enough for effective detection by gel-shift assays, but the TRE-CREB complex is crosslinked efficiently by K2PtCl4 and can then readily be detected [4].
  • Potassium tetrachloroplatinate (K2PtCl4) inactivates dihydropteridine reductase from human brain in a time-dependent and irreversible manner [5].
 

Biological context of K2PtCl4

 

Anatomical context of K2PtCl4

  • The effect of the injection of K2PtCl4 into mice on gold-labelled concanavalin A (Con A) receptors on peritoneal macrophages was examined with an energy dispersive X-ray detector in an SEM [7].
  • Moreover, metallic dental drugs such as K2PtCl4 are used a dentine desensitizers [8].
