In the mol-ecule of the title compound, [CdBr2(C14H12N2)(C2H6OS)], the Cd(II) atom is five-coordinated in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal configuration by two N atoms from a 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline ligand, one O atom from a dimethyl sulfoxide ligand and two Br atoms. In the crystal, π-π contacts between the pyridine and benzene rings [centroid-centroid distances = 3.710 (5), 3.711 (6) and 3.627 (5) Å] stabilize the structure.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the effectiveness of the telomerase inhibitor imetelstat in treating osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer, using pre-clinical models.
- Results showed that imetelstat alone decreased telomerase activity, caused telomere shortening, and inhibited growth in osteosarcoma cell lines, but didn't fully stop cell growth in bulk cultures.
- The combination of imetelstat and the HSP90 inhibitor alvespimycin led to increased DNA damage and complete growth arrest in cell cultures, and also significantly reduced tumor growth in xenograft models, suggesting that dual targeting is a promising therapeutic strategy.
Effect of allicin on the production of polysaccharide intercellular adhesin in Staphylococcus epidermidis.

Aims: Polysaccharide intercellular adhesin (PIA) is the main agglutination agent in the biofilm forming strain Staphylococcus epidermidis. To find an explanation for the observed inhibition of biofilm formation by allicin, we studied the effect of allicin on PIA production in samples treated with sub MIC doses of allicin and compared this with a control culture without allicin.

Co-treatment with heat shock protein 90 inhibitor 17-dimethylaminoethylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (DMAG) and vorinostat: a highly active combination against human mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cells.

Heat shock protein (hsp) 90 inhibitors promote proteasomal degradation of pro-growth and pro-survival hsp90 client proteins, including CDK4, c-RAF and AKT, and induce apoptosis of human lymphoma cells. The pan-histone deacetylase inhibitor vorinostat has also been shown to induce growth arrest and apoptosis of lymphoma cells. Here, we determined the effects of the more soluble, orally bio-available, geldanamycin analogue 17-NN-dimethyl ethylenediamine geldanamycin (DMAG, Kosan Biosciences Inc.
