Anti-angiogenic activity of palladium (Pd)(II)-based complexes is unknown despite their quite powerful anticancer activity. This study was therefore carried out to evaluate both in vivo anti-angiogenic effect and in vitro cytotoxic activity of a Pd(II)-based complex. ([Pd(sac)(terpy)](sac)·4HO(sac=saccharinate and terpy=2,2':6',2″-terpyridine)) on HUVEC cells.

Background/aim: New compounds for cancer treatment are needed due to persistenly unsatisfactory management of cancer. [PdCl(terpy)](sac)·2H2O] (sac=saccharinate, and terpy=2,2':6',2"-terpyridine) is a compound synthesized for this purpose. We investigated its anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects on Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma (EAC) in vivo.

Background/aim: [Pd(sac)(terpy)](sac)•4H2O (sac=saccharinate and terpy=2,2':6',2"-terpyridine) is newly-synthesized palladium(II) (Pd) complex. We investigated the antiproliferative and apoptotic effects of this complex on Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC).

Materials And Methods: EAC cells were administered to 33 Balb/c mice.
