Abstract
![]()
The
specific recognition of AT-rich DNA sequences opens up the
door to promising diagnostic and/or therapeutic strategies against
gene-related diseases. Here, we demonstrate that amphiphilic PtII complexes of the type [Pt(dmba)(N∧N)]NO3 (dmba = N,N-dimethylbenzylamine-κN, κC; N∧N = dpq (3), dppz (4), and dppn (5)) recognize AT-rich
oligonucleotides over other types of DNA, RNA, and model proteins.
The crystal structure of 4 shows the presence of significant
π-stacking interactions and a distorted coordination sphere
of the d8 PtII atom. Complex 5,
containing the largest π-conjugated ligand, forms supramolecular
assemblies at high concentrations under aqueous environment. However,
its aggregation can be promoted in the presence of DNA at concentrations
as low as 10 μM in a process that “turns on” its
excimer emission around 600 nm. Viscometry, gel electrophoresis, and
theoretical calculations demonstrate that 5 binds to
minor groove when self-assembled, while the monomers of 3 and 4 intercalate into the DNA. The complexes also
inhibit cancer cell growth with low-micromolar IC50 values
in 2D tissue culture and suppress tumor growth in 3D tumor spheroids
with a multicellular resistance (MCR) index comparable to that of
cisplatin. Cyclometalated PtII complexes
containing π-conjugated
ligands form supramolecular assemblies under aqueous environment,
and DNA-induced aggregation occurs for the one containing the highest
conjugated N,N-diimine ligand. The complexes recognize
AT-rich DNA sequences over others in DNA, RNA, and proteins. Their
DNA binding mode switches from intercalation to minor groove binding
when self-assembled. The complexes suppress tumor growth in 3D tumor
spheroids.
