Abstract
Copper homeostasis is strictly regulated by protein transporters and chaperones, to allow its correct distribution and avoid uncontrolled redox reactions. Several studies address copper as involved in cancer development and spreading (epithelial to mesenchymal transition, angiogenesis). However, being endogenous and displaying a tremendous potential to generate free radicals, copper is a perfect candidate, once opportunely complexed, to be used as a drug in cancer therapy with low adverse effects. Copper ions can be modulated by the organic counterpart, after complexed to their metalcore, either in redox potential or geometry and consequently reactivity. During the last four decades, many copper complexes were studied regarding their reactivity toward cancer cells, and many of them could be a drug choice for phase II and III in cancer therapy. Also, there is promising evidence of using 64Cu in nanoparticles as radiopharmaceuticals for both positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and treatment of hypoxic tumors. However, few compounds have gone beyond testing in animal models, and none of them got the status of a drug for cancer chemotherapy. The main challenge is their solubility in physiological buffers and their different and non-predictable mechanism of action. Moreover, it is difficult to rationalize a structure-based activity for drug design and delivery. In this review, we describe the role of copper in cancer, the effects of copper-complexes on tumor cell death mechanisms, and point to the new copper complexes applicable as drugs, suggesting that they may represent at least one component of a multi-action combination in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Abstract
A simple and rapid method for the preparation of benzopyranophenazines is presented, involving a one-pot four-component reaction of hydroxynaphthoquinone, o-phenylenediamine, benzaldehydes, and malononitrile with nano-Fe3O4@chitosan as an efficient heterogeneous solid acid catalyst under reflux conditions in ethanol. The catalyst is characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), magnetic susceptibility measurements, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Atom economy, high catalytic activity, a wide range of products, excellent yields in short reaction times, and low catalyst loading are some of the important features of this method.

Abstract
Push-pull dibenzodioxins and phenazines having ‘anthracene-like’ planar structures and good charge transfer character had been previously synthesised in our laboratory. The dibenzodioxins had earlier proven their anti-proliferative nature against HeLa tumor cell lines. Since phenazines are structural analogues of the former, these molecules were evaluated in course of the current study for their cytotoxic action against HeLa cell lines and they exhibited strong anti-tumor activity. This behavior could be related to their good DNA binding property. The DNA binding modes of molecules 1–4 (Fig. 1) were evaluated using various experimental techniques and they interacted with DNA in a non-covalently by both intercalative as well as groove binding mechanisms. Molecule 1 follows predominantly intercalative binding mode whereas molecules 2 and 3 have nearly equal and opposite preferences for both groove binding and intercalative modes. For molecule 4, groove binding is preferred mode of binding to DNA. A rationale for such differential binding behaviour is provided based on the subtle structural differences in our synthesised dibenzodioxins and phenazines. Elucidation of the mode of a molecule-DNA-binding event is relevant for understanding the mechanism of action of these molecules and will help promote further research into designing better DNA targeting small molecules. DNA binding modes of push-pull planar dibenzodioxins and phenazines were elucidated. DNA binding mechanistic details were obtained by spectroscopic and viscometric techniques. The molecular shape and geometry has a bearing on its choice of binding mode.

Abstract
Tea white scab (TWS) is a major disease affecting tea trees in mid-elevation regions and often occurs during rainy seasons with low temperatures. This disease is caused by the fungal pathogen Phoma sp. TWS can infect young stems, tender leaves, and tender shoots and lead to the production of low-quality tea. Owing to the absence of an effective control, TWS can result in substantial loss in tea production. In this study, we isolated and identified the pathogen from tea leaves infected by TWS and then evaluated in vitro the antifungal activity of Shenqinmycin, polyoxin, azoxystrobin, oligosaccharins, and tebuconazole against Phoma sp. Our results indicated that Shenqinmycin can inhibit the growth of Phoma sp. mycelia, with the EC50 value of 0.74μg/mL. After Phoma sp. being incubated in PDB liquid medium with Shenqinmycin, its mycelia were distorted and distended at 1.56μg/mL of minimum inhibitory concentration for 6h. Crucial genes associated with cell redox homeostasis, proteins synthesis, energy metabolism, and cytoskeleton were studied at mRNA and protein levels through RT-qPCR and Nano-LC-MS/MS. The results showed that the genes of 3-phosphate-glyceraldehyde dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit (NADH-subunit), ribosomal protein, eukaryotic initiation factor 4A-I, β-tubulin, and α-tubulin were up-regulated. Meanwhile, the genes of formate dehydrogenase (FDH), malate dehydrogenase, mitochondrial heat shock protein, and protein disulfide-isomerase (PDI) were up-regulated at mRNA level but down-regulated at protein level. These results indicated that Shenqinmycin contribute to cell redox homeostasis by up- or down-regulating NADH-subunit, FDH, and PDI.

Abstract
Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is the casual agent of bacterial blight, which is one of the most serious diseases of rice. The antibiotic phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA), which is primarily produced by Pseudomonas spp., was found and previously reported very effective against Xoo. However, the biological effects of PCA on Xoo remain unclear. In this study, we found that PCA increased the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reduced the activities of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in Xoo. Xoo was more sensitive to H2O2 than Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc), and had a much lower expression of CAT genes. In addition, proteomic analysis indicated that PCA inhibited carbohydrate metabolism and nutrient uptake in Xoo, and analysis of carbon source utilization further confirmed that carbohydrate metabolism in Xoo was repressed by PCA. In conclusion, PCA acted as a redox-cycling agent that disturbed the redox balance in Xoo and reduced CAT and SOD activities, resulting in higher accumulation of ROS, altered carbohydrate metabolism, and lower energy production and nutrient uptake. Moreover, a deficient antioxidant system in Xoo made it very sensitive to PCA.
