Shedding light on the use of graphene oxide-thiosemicarbazone hybrids towards the rapid immobilisation of methylene blue and functional coumarins. NANOSCALE ADVANCES 2024; 6:2287-2305.

Abstract
Coumarins, methylene blue derivatives, as well as related functional organic dyes have become prevalent tools in life sciences and biomedicine. Their intense blue fluorescence emission makes them ideal agents for a range of applications, yet an unwanted facet of the interesting biological properties of such probes presents a simultaneous environmental threat due to inherent toxicity and persistence in aqueous media. As such, significant research efforts now ought to focus on their removal from the environment, and the sustainable trapping onto widely available, water dispersible and processable adsorbent structures such as graphene oxides could be advantageous. Additionally, flat and aromatic bis(thiosemicarbazones) (BTSCs) have shown biocompatibility and chemotherapeutic potential, as well as intrinsic fluorescence, hence traceability in the environment and in living systems. A new palette of graphene oxide-based hierarchical supramolecular materials incorporating BTSCs were prepared, characterised, and reported hereby. We report on the supramolecular entrapping of several flat, aromatic fluorogenic molecules onto graphene oxide on basis of non-covalent interactions, by virtue of their structural features with potential to form aromatic stacks and H-bonds. The evaluations of the binding interactions in solution by between organic dyes (methylene blue and functional coumarins) and new graphene oxide-anchored Zn(ii) derivatised bis(thiosemicarbazones) nanohybrids were carried out by UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopies.

Abstract
Copper-organic compounds have gained momentum as potent antitumor drug candidates largely due to their ability to generate an oxidative burst upon the transition of Cu2+ to Cu1+ triggered by the exogenous-reducing agents. We have reported the differential potencies of a series of Cu(II)-organic complexes that produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell death after incubation with N-acetylcysteine (NAC). To get insight into the structural prerequisites for optimization of the organic ligands, we herein investigated the electrochemical properties and the cytotoxicity of Cu(II) complexes with pyridylmethylenethiohydantoins, pyridylbenzothiazole, pyridylbenzimidazole, thiosemicarbazones and porphyrins. We demonstrate that the ability of the complexes to kill cells in combination with NAC is determined by the potential of the Cu+2 → Cu+1 redox transition rather than by the spatial structure of the organic ligand. For cell sensitization to the copper-organic complex, the electrochemical potential of the metal reduction should be lower than the oxidation potential of the reducing agent. Generally, the structural optimization of copper-organic complexes for combinations with the reducing agents should include uncharged organic ligands that carry hard electronegative inorganic moieties.

Abstract
The overall mol-ecular configuration of the title compound, C12H16N6OS2·C3H7NO, is stabilized in the solid state by intra-molecular C-H⋯N, C-H⋯O, N-H⋯N and N-H⋯O inter-actions, forming S(5) ring motifs. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked to each other and solvent di-methyl-formamide mol-ecules by N-H⋯S, N-H⋯O, C-H⋯O and C-H⋯S hydrogen bonds, forming a three dimensional network. The phenyl ring of the title compound is disordered over two sites with an occupancy ratio of 0.57 (4):0.43 (4). A Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed to qu-antify the contributions of the different inter-molecular inter-actions, indicating that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (38.7%), S⋯H / H⋯S (24.0%), C⋯H / H⋯C (18.5%) and N⋯H / H⋯N (9.8%) inter-actions.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays important roles in brain pathophysiology. However, nuclear imaging probes for the in vivo detection of brain H2S in living animals have not been developed. Here, we report the first nuclear imaging probe that enables in vivo imaging of endogenous H2S in the brain of live mice. METHODS Utilizing a bis(thiosemicarbazone) backbone, a fluorescent ATSM-FITC conjugate was synthesized. Its copper complex, Cu(ATSM-FITC) was thoroughly tested as a biosensor for H2S. The same ATSM-FITC ligand was quantitatively labeled with [64Cu]CuCl2 to obtain a radioactive [64Cu][Cu(ATSM-FITC)] imaging probe. Biodistribution and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging studies were performed in healthy mice and neuroinflammation models. RESULTS The Cu(ATSM-FITC) complex reacts instantly with H2S to release CuS and becomes fluorescent. It showed excellent reactivity, sensitivity, and selectivity to H2S. Endogenous H2S levels in living cells were successfully detected by fluorescence microscopy. Exceptionally high brain uptake of [64Cu][Cu(ATSM-FITC)] (> 9% ID/g) was observed in biodistribution and PET imaging studies. Subtle changes in brain H2S concentrations in live mice were accurately detected by quantitative PET imaging. Due to its dual modality feature, increased H2S levels in neuroinflammation models were characterized at the subcellular level by fluorescence imaging and at the whole-body scale by PET imaging. CONCLUSION Our biosensor can be readily utilized to study brain H2S function in live animal models and shows great potential as a novel imaging agent for diagnosing brain diseases.

Abstract
Cyclotron‐produced copper‐64 radioisotope tracers offer the possibility to perform both diagnostic investigation by positron emission tomography (PET) and radiotherapy by a theranostic approach with bifunctional chelators. The versatile chemical properties of copper add to the importance of this isotope in medicinal investigation. [64Cu][Cu (ATSM)] has shown to be a viable candidate for imaging of tumor hypoxia; a critical tumor microenvironment characteristic that typically signifies tumor progression and resistance to chemo‐radiotherapy. Various production and radiosynthesis methods of [64Cu][Cu (ATSM)] exist in labs, but usually involved non‐standardized equipment with varying production qualities and may not be easily implemented in wider hospital settings. [64Cu][Cu (ATSM)] was synthesized on a modified GE TRACERlab FXN automated synthesis module. End‐of‐synthesis (EOS) molar activity of [64Cu][Cu (ATSM)] was 2.2–5.5 Ci/μmol (HPLC), 2.2–2.6 Ci/μmol (ATSM‐titration), and 3.0–4.4 Ci/μmol (ICP‐MS). Radiochemical purity was determined to be >99% based on radio‐HPLC. The final product maintained radiochemical purity after 20 h. We demonstrated a simple and feasible process development and quality control protocols for automated cyclotron production and synthesis of [64Cu][Cu (ATSM)] based on commercially distributed standardized synthesis modules suitable for PET imaging and theranostic studies.

Abstract
The new ligand HMeATSM, derived from condensation of 2-3-butanedione with 4-methyl-3-thiosemicarbazide and 2,4-dimethyl-3-thiosemicarbazide, has been synthesized. Its reactivity with nickel(II) and zinc(II) nitrates was explored and the resulting complexes were thoroughly characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity, mass spectrometry, IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopies and their structures were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The results showed that the complex [Ni(MeATSM)]NO3 1 is formed under every reaction condition. In contrast, the reaction with zinc(II) nitrate depends on the temperature and the presence of LiOH.H2O, leading to the obtaining of complexes [Zn(MeATSM)(OH2)](NO3) 2 and [Zn(Me2TS)2(OH2)](NO3)2 3. The crystal structures of complexes 1 and 2 show that the dissymmetric ligand acts as a N2S2 tetradentate monoanionic ligand. The structural preferences of the metals also determine the structure of the complexes: whereas nickel(II) is in a square-planar environment, the zinc atom prefers a distorted square-base pyramid geometry imposed by the coordination mode and the planarity of the bis(thiosemicarbazone) ligand. In contrast, in complex 3, containing two bidentate Me2TS ligands, the Zn(II) is in a trigonal bipyramid arrangement. In all the complexes, the nitrate ion is not coordinated to the metal and acts as a counterion.

Abstract
In recent years, copper-64 and copper-67 have been considered as a useful theranostic pair in nuclear medicine, due to their favourable and complementary decay properties. As 67Cu and 64Cu are chemically identical, development of both existing and new bifunctional chelators for 64Cu imaging agents can be readily adapted for the 67Cu-radionuclide. In this study, we explored the use of photoactivatable copper chelators based on the asymmetric bis(thiosemicarbazone) scaffold, H2ATSM/en, for the photoradiolabelling of protein. Photoactivatable 64CuATSM-derivatives were prepared by both direct synthesis and transmetallation from the corresponding natZn complex. Then, irradiation with UV light in the presence of a protein of interest in a pH buffered aqueous solution afforded the 64Cu-labelled protein conjugates in decay-corrected radiochemical yield of 86.9 ± 1.0% via the transmetallation method and 35.3 ± 1.7% from the direct radiolabelling method. This study successfully demonstrates the viability of photochemically induced conjugation methods for the development of copper-based radiotracers for potential applications in diagnostic positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and targeted radionuclide therapy. In recent years, copper-64 and copper-67 have been considered as a useful theranostic pair in nuclear medicine. Here, we report a photochemically-mediated approach for radiolabelling biologically relevant protein with copper radionuclides.![]()

Abstract
Herein we demonstrate that copper(II)-diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone)(CuATSM), clinical candidate for the treatment of ALS and Parkinson's disease, is a highly potent radical-trapping antioxidant (RTA) and inhibitor of (phospho)lipid peroxidation. In THF autoxidations, CuATSM reacts with THF-derived peroxyl radicals with kinh = 2.2 × 106 M-1 s-1─roughly 10-fold greater than α-tocopherol (α-TOH), Nature's best RTA. Mechanistic studies reveal no H/D kinetic isotope effects and a lack of rate-suppressing effects from H-bonding interactions, implying a different mechanism from α-TOH and other canonical RTAs, which react by H-atom transfer (HAT). Similar reactivity was observed for the corresponding Ni2+ complex and complexes of both Cu2+ and Ni2+ with other bis(thiosemicarbazone) ligands. Computations corroborate the experimental finding that rate-limiting HAT cannot account for the observed RTA activity and instead suggest that the reversible addition of a peroxyl radical to the bis(thiosemicarbazone) ligand is responsible. Subsequent HAT or combination with another peroxyl radical drives the reaction forward, such that a maximum of four radicals are trapped per molecule of CuATSM. This sequence is supported by spectroscopic and mass spectrometric experiments on isolated intermediates. Importantly, the RTA activity of CuATSM (and its analogues) translates from organic solution to phospholipid bilayers, thereby accounting for its (their) ability to inhibit ferroptosis. Experiments in mouse embryonic fibroblasts and hippocampal cells reveal that lipophilicity as well as inherent RTA activity contribute to the potency of ferroptosis rescue, and that one compound (CuATSP) is almost 20-fold more potent than CuATSM and among the most potent ferroptosis inhibitors reported to date.

Abstract
Fungi are ubiquitous in nature, and typically cause little or no environmental or pathogenic damage to their plant, animal, and human hosts. However, a small but growing number of pathogenic fungi are spreading world-wide at an alarming rate threatening global ecosystem health and proliferation. Many of these emerging pathogens have developed multi-drug resistance to front line therapeutics increasing the urgency for the development of new antifungal agents. This review examines the development of thiosemicarbazones, bis(thiosemicarbazones), and their metal complexes as potential antifungal agents against more than 65 different fungal strains. The fungistatic activity of the compounds are quantified based on the zone of inhibition, minimum inhibitory concentration, or growth inhibition percentage. In this review, reported activities were standardized based on molar concentrations to simplify comparisons between different compounds. Of all the fungal strains reported in the review, A. niger in particular was very resistant towards a majority of tested compounds. Our analysis of the data shows that metal complexes are typically more active than non-coordinated ligands with copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes generally displaying the highest activity.

Abstract
The synthesis of two new hexadentate potentially tetra-anionic acyclic chelators, an N2O4-donor bis(semicarbazone) (H4bsc) and an N2O2S2-donor bis(thiosemicarbazone) (H4btsc), is described. Coordination reactions of the ligands with gallium and indium precursors were investigated and yielded the complexes [Ga(Hbsc)] (1) and [In(Hbtsc)] (2), respectively. Ligands and complexes structures were confirmed by several techniques, including FTIR, NMR (1H, 13C, COSY, HSQC), ESI(+)-MS and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The radioactive congeners [67Ga(Hbsc)] (1*) and [111In(Hbtsc)] (2*) were also synthesized and their radiolabeling yield and radiochemical purity were certified by HPLC and ITLC analyses. Biodistribution assays in groups of CD-1 mice showed a high uptake of both radiocomplexes in liver and intestine where 1* presented higher retention. In vitro and in vivo assays revealed higher stability of 1* compared with 2*, namely in the blood. The results suggest that radiocomplex 1* is a candidate for further investigation as it could be prepared in high yields (>95%), at low temperature (20-25 °C) and at fast reaction time (15 min), which are very desirable synthesis conditions for potential new radiopharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Early cancer detection and perfect understanding of the disease are imperative toward efficient treatments. It is straightforward that, for choosing a specific cancer treatment methodology, diagnostic agents undertake a critical role. Imaging is an extremely intriguing tool since it assumes a follow up to treatments to survey the accomplishment of the treatment and to recognize any conceivable repeating injuries. It also permits analysis of the disease, as well as to pursue treatment and monitor the possible changes that happen on the tumor. Likewise, it allows screening the adequacy of treatment and visualizing the state of the tumor. Additionally, when the treatment is finished, observing the patient is imperative to evaluate the treatment methodology and adjust the treatment if necessary. The goal of this review is to present an overview of conjugated photosensitizers for imaging and therapy.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the presence of extracellular amyloid-β plaques. Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with tracers radiolabeled with positron-emitting radionuclides that bind to amyloid-β plaques can assist in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. With the goal of designing new imaging agents radiolabeled with positron-emitting copper-64 radionuclides that bind to amyloid-β plaques, a family of bis(thiosemicarbazone) ligands with appended substituted stilbenyl functional groups has been prepared. The ligands form charge-neutral and stable complexes with copper(II). The new ligands can be radiolabeled with copper-64 at room temperature. Two lead complexes were demonstrated to bind to amyloid-β plaques present in post-mortem brain tissue from subjects with clinically diagnosed Alzheimer's disease and crossed the blood-brain barrier in mice. The work presented here provides strategies to prepare compounds with radionuclides of copper that can be used for targeted brain PET imaging.

Abstract
Glucose homeostasis plays a key role in numerous fundamental aspects of life, and its dysregulation is associated with many important diseases such as cancer. The atypical glucose metabolic phenomenon, known as the Warburg effect, has been recognized as a hallmark of cancer and serves as a promising target for tumor specific imaging. At present, 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-glucose (18F-FDG)-based positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) represented the state-of-the-art radionuclide imaging technique for this purpose. The powerful impact of 18F-FDG has prompted intensive research efforts into other glucose-based radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging. Currently, glucose and its analogues have been labeled with various radionuclides such as 99mTc, 111In, 18F, 68Ga, and 64Cu and have been successfully investigated for tumor metabolic imaging in many preclinical studies. Moreover, 99mTc-ECDG has advanced into its early clinical trials and brings a new era of tumor imaging beyond 18F-FDG. In this review, preclinical and early clinical development of glucose-based radiopharmaceuticals for tumor metabolic imaging will be summarized.

Abstract
The synthesis of new bis(thiosemicarbazonato)copper(II) complexes featuring polyamine substituents via selective transamination reactions is presented. Polyamines of different lengths, with different ionizable substituent groups, were used to modify and adjust the hydrophilic/lipophilic balance of the copper complexes. The new analogues were radiolabeled with copper-64 and their lipophilicities estimated using distribution coefficients. The cell uptake of the new polyamine complexes was investigated with preliminary in vitro biological studies using a neuroblastoma cancer cell line. The in vivo biodistribution of three of the new analogues was investigated in vivo in mice using positron-emission tomography imaging, and one of the new complexes was compared to [64Cu]Cu(atsm) in an A431 squamous cell carcinoma xenograft model. Modification of the copper complexes with various amine-containing functional groups alters the biodistribution of the complexes in mice. One complex, with a pendent ( N, N-dimethylamino)ethane functional group, displayed tumor uptake similar to that of [64Cu]Cu(atsm) but higher brain uptake, suggesting that this compound has the potential to be of use in the diagnostic brain imaging of tumors and neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Amyloid-β plaques, consisting of aggregated amyloid-β peptides, are one of the pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease. Copper complexes formed using positron-emitting copper radionuclides that cross the blood-brain barrier and bind to specific molecular targets offer the possibility of noninvasive diagnostic imaging using positron emission tomography. New thiosemicarbazone-pyridylhydrazone based ligands that incorporate pyridyl-benzofuran functional groups designed to bind amyloid-β plaques have been synthesized. The ligands form stable complexes with copper(II) ( Kd = 10-18 M) and can be radiolabeled with copper-64 at room temperature. Subtle changes to the periphery of the ligand backbone alter the metabolic stability of the complexes in mouse and human liver microsomes, and influenced the ability of the complexes to cross the blood-brain barrier in mice. A lead complex was selected based on possessing the best metabolic stability and brain uptake in mice. Synthesis of this lead complex with isotopically enriched copper-65 allowed us to show that the complex bound to amyloid-β plaques present in post-mortem human brain tissue using laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. This work provides insight into strategies to target metal complexes to amyloid-β plaques, and how small modifications to ligands can dramatically alter the metabolic stability of metal complexes as well as their ability to cross the blood-brain barrier.

Abstract
Zinc is a biocompatible element that exists as the second most abundant transition metal ion and an indispensable trace element in the human body. Compared to traditional metal-organic complexes systems, d10 metal ZnII complexes not only exhibit a large Stokes shift and good photon stability but also possess strong emission and low cytotoxicity with a relatively small molecular weight. The use of ZnII complexes has emerged in the last decade as a versatile and convenient tool for numerous biological applications, including bioimaging, molecular and protein recognition, as well as photodynamic therapy. Herein, we review recent developments involving ZnII metal complexes applied as specific subcellular compartment imaging probes and their correlated utilizations.

Abstract
Radiometals are becoming increasingly accessible and are utilized frequently in the design of radiotracers for imaging and therapy. Nuclear properties ranging from the emission of γ-rays and β+ -particles (imaging) to Auger electron and β- and α-particles (therapy) in combination with long half-lives are ideally matched with the relatively long biological half-life of monoclonal antibodies in vivo. Radiometal labeling of antibodies requires the incorporation of a metal chelate onto the monoclonal antibody. This chelate must coordinate the metal under mild conditions required for the handling of antibodies, as well as provide high kinetic, thermodynamic, and metabolic stability once the metal ion is coordinated to prevent release of the radionuclide before the target site is reached in vivo. Herein, we review the role of different radiometals that have found applications of the design of radiolabeled antibodies for imaging and radioimmunotherapy. Each radionuclide is described regarding its nuclear synthesis, coordinative preference, and radiolabeling properties with commonly used and novel chelates, as well as examples of their preclinical and clinical applications. An overview of recent trends in antibody-based radiopharmaceuticals is provided to spur continued development of the chemistry and application of radiometals for imaging and therapy.

Abstract
Molecular imaging has become a powerful technique in preclinical and clinical research aiming towards the diagnosis of many diseases. In this work, we address the synthetic challenges in achieving lab-scale, batch-to-batch reproducible copper-64- and gallium-68-radiolabelled metal nanoparticles (MNPs) for cellular imaging purposes. Composite NPs incorporating magnetic iron oxide cores with luminescent quantum dots were simultaneously encapsulated within a thin silica shell, yielding water-dispersible, biocompatible and luminescent NPs. Scalable surface modification protocols to attach the radioisotopes 64Cu (t1/2=12.7 h) and 68Ga (t1/2=68 min) in high yields are reported, and are compatible with the time frame of radiolabelling. Confocal and fluorescence lifetime imaging studies confirm the uptake of the encapsulated imaging agents and their cytoplasmic localisation in prostate cancer (PC-3) cells. Cellular viability assays show that the biocompatibility of the system is improved when the fluorophores are encapsulated within a silica shell. The functional and biocompatible SiO2 matrix represents an ideal platform for the incorporation of 64Cu and 68Ga radioisotopes with high radiolabelling incorporation.

Abstract
An assessment study involving the use of the transglutaminase (TGase) conjugation method and the nitride-technetium-99m labelling on a bis(thiosemicarbazone) (BTS) bifunctional chelating agent is presented. The previously described chelator diacetyl-2-(N4-methyl-3-thiosemicarbazone)-3-(N4-amino-3-thiosemicarbazone), H2ATSM/A, has been functionalized with 6-aminohexanoic acid (ε-Ahx) to generate the bifunctional chelating agent diacetyl-2-(N4-methyl-3-thiosemicarbazone)-3-[N4-(amino)-(6-aminohexanoic acid)-3-thiosemicarbazone], H2ATSM/A-ε-Ahx (1), suitable for conjugation to glutamine (Gln) residues of bioactive molecules via TGase. The feasibility of the TGase reaction in the synthesis of a bioconjugate derivative was investigated using Substance P (SP) as model peptide. Compounds 1 and H2ATSM/A-ε-Ahx-SP (2) were labelled with nitride-technetium-99m, obtaining the complexes [99mTc][Tc(N)(ATSM/A-ε-Ahx)] (99mTc1) and [99mTc][Tc(N)(ATSM/A-ε-Ahx-SP)] (99mTc2). The chemical identity of 99mTc1 and 99mTc2 was confirmed by radio/UV-RP-HPLC combined with ESI-MS analysis on the respective carrier-added products 99g/99mTc1 and 99g/99mTc2. The stability of the radiolabelled complexes after incubation in various environments was investigated. All the results were compared with those obtained for the corresponding 64Cu-analogues, 64Cu1 and 64Cu2. The TGase reaction allows the conjugation of 1 with the peptide, but it is not highly efficient due to instability of the chelator in the required conditions. The SP-conjugated complexes are unstable in mouse and human sera. However, indeed the BTS system can be exploited as nitride-technetium-99m chelator for highly efficient technetium labelling, thus making compound 1 worthy of further investigations for new targeted technetium and copper radiopharmaceuticals encompassing Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography and Positron Emission Tomography imaging.

Abstract
Hypoxia has been identified as one of the hallmarks of tumor environments and a prognosis factor in many cancers. The development of ideal chemical probes for imaging and sensing of hypoxia remains elusive. Crucial characteristics would include a measurable response to subtle variations of pO2 in living systems and an ability to accumulate only in the areas of interest (e.g., targeting hypoxia tissues) whilst exhibiting kinetic stabilities in vitro and in vivo. A sensitive probe would comprise platforms for applications in imaging and therapy for non-communicable diseases (NCDs) relying on sensitive detection of pO2. Just a handful of probes for the in vivo imaging of hypoxia [mainly using positron emission tomography (PET)] have reached the clinical research stage. Many chemical compounds, whilst presenting promising in vitro results as oxygen-sensing probes, are facing considerable disadvantages regarding their general application in vivo. The mechanisms of action of many hypoxia tracers have not been entirely rationalized, especially in the case of metallo-probes. An insight into the hypoxia selectivity mechanisms can allow an optimization of current imaging probes candidates and this will be explored hereby. The mechanistic understanding of the modes of action of coordination compounds under oxygen concentration gradients in living cells allows an expansion of the scope of compounds toward in vivo applications which, in turn, would help translate these into clinical applications. We summarize hereby some of the recent research efforts made toward the discovery of new oxygen sensing molecules having a metal-ligand core. We discuss their applications in vitro and/or in vivo, with an appreciation of a plethora of molecular imaging techniques (mainly reliant on nuclear medicine techniques) currently applied in the detection and tracing of hypoxia in the preclinical and clinical setups. The design of imaging/sensing probe for early-stage diagnosis would longer term avoid invasive procedures providing platforms for therapy monitoring in a variety of NCDs and, particularly, in cancers.

Abstract
A novel water-soluble ionophore based on the thiocarbohydrazone moiety conjugated with glucose (GluTch) was synthesized through a simple two-step procedure. Structural elucidation was carried out in water solution by means of various spectroscopic techniques (NMR, UV-Vis, and CD), electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and density functional theory calculations. The flexible nature of the thiocarbohydrazone moiety of the new glycoderivative compound induced both different coordination motifs and stoichiometry towards copper and zinc. Cytotoxicity assays of the ligands on the human normal keratinocyte NCTC-2544, MDA-MB-231 breast cancer and PC-3 human prostate adenocarcinoma cell lines demonstrated that i) higher activity on cancer cells growth inhibition compared to a normal cell line; ii) the introduction of the glucose unit does not alter the cytotoxic activity of the underivatized ionophore ligand and iii) the presence of copper ion improves the activity of the thiocarbohydrazones.

Abstract
Copper(ii) bis(thiosemicarbazone) derivatives have been used extensively in positron emission tomography (PET) to image hypoxia and blood flow and to radiolabel cells for cell tracking. These applications depend on control of redox potentials and lipophilicity of the bis(thiosemicarbazone) complexes, which can be adjusted by altering peripheral ligand substituents. This paper reports the synthesis of a library of new dissymmetrically substituted bis(thiosemicarbazone) ligands by controlling the condensation reactions between dicarbonyl compounds and 4-substituted-3-thiosemicarbazides or using acetal protection. Copper complexes of the new ligands have been prepared by reaction with copper acetate or via transmetallation of the corresponding zinc complexes, which are convenient precursors for the rapid synthesis of radio-copper complexes. Well-defined structure-activity relationships linking ligand alkylation patterns with redox potential and lipophilicity of the complexes are reported.

Abstract
The synthesis and anticancer activity of a copper(II) diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) complex and its nanoconjugates are reported. The copper(II) complex is connected to a carboxylic acid group through a cleavable disulfide link to enable smart delivery. The copper complex is tethered to highly water-soluble 20 nm gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), stabilized by amine terminated lipoic acid-polyethylene glycol (PEG). The gold nanoparticle carrier was further decorated with biotin to achieve targeted action. The copper complex and the conjugates with and without biotin, were tested against HeLa and HaCaT cells. They show very good anticancer activity against HeLa cells, a cell line derived from cervical cancer and are less active against HaCaT cells. Slow and sustained release of the complex from conjugates is demonstrated through cleavage of disulfide linker in the presence of glutathione (GSH), a reducing agent intrinsically present in high concentrations within cancer cells. Biotin appended conjugates do not show greater activity than conjugates without biotin against HeLa cells. This is consistent with drug uptake studies, which suggests similar uptake profiles for both conjugates in vitro. However, in vivo studies using a HeLa cell xenograft tumor model shows 3.8-fold reduction in tumor volume for the biotin conjugated nanoparticle compared to the control whereas the conjugate without biotin shows only 2.3-fold reduction in the tumor volume suggesting significant targeting.

Abstract
Four novel ligands derived from 2,3-butanedione have been synthesized, two dissymmetric thiosemicarbazone/3-hydroxy-2-naphthohydrazone ligands, H2L1 (bearing 4-isopropyl-3-thiosemicarbazone) and H2L2 (containing 4-cyclohexyl-3-thiosemicarbazone) and the symmetric H2L3, diacetyl bis(3-hydroxy-2-naphthohydrazone), and H2L4, diacetyl bis(4-cyclohexyl-3-thiosemicarbazone). Their reactivity with SnR2Cl2 (R=methyl, n-butyl and phenyl) was explored and the resulting complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, mass spectrometry, IR, 1H, 13C and 119Sn NMR and seven of them also by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The results showed that the reactivity of the dissymmetric ligands is strongly different and while the cyclohexyl derivative is very stable, with isopropyl easily undergoes a symmetrization reaction to yield the corresponding symmetric ligands. The antimicrobial activity of the ligands and the corresponding diorganotin(IV) complexes was investigated in vitro against seven species of microorganisms and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined. The results showed that the ligand H2L2 and several of its derivatives, together with methyl and phenyl complexes of H2L1, have the ability of inhibiting the growth of tested bacteria and fungi to different extents. Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus Gram positive strains were the most sensitive microorganisms.

Abstract
The positron emitting radionuclide (64)Cu has a radioactive half-life of 12.7 hours. The decay characteristics of (64)Cu allow for PET images that are comparable in quality to those obtained using (18)F. Given the longer radioactive half-life of (64)Cu compared with (18)F and the versatility of copper chemistry, copper is an attractive alternative to the shorter-lived nuclides for PET imaging of peptides, antibodies, and small molecules that may require longer circulation times. This article discusses a number of copper radiopharmaceuticals, such as Cu-ATSM, that have been translated to the clinic and new developments in copper-based radiopharmaceuticals.

Abstract
The wide diversity of applications of thiosemicarbazones and bis(thiosemicarbazones) has seen them used as anticancer and antitubercular agents, and as ligands in metal complexes designed to act as site-specific radiopharmaceuticals. Molecules of 1,1'-({[(ethane-1,2-diyl)dioxy](1,2-phenylene)}bis(methanylylidene))bis(thiosemicarbazide) {alternative name: 2,2'-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(oxy)]dibenzaldehyde bis(thiosemicarbazide)}, C18H20N6O2S2, (I), lie across twofold rotation axes in the space group C2/c, with an O-C-C-O torsion angle of -59.62 (13)° and a trans-planar arrangement of the thiosemicarbazide fragments relative to the adjacent aryl rings. The molecules of (I) are linked by N-H...S hydrogen bonds to form sheets containing R(2)4(38) rings and two types of R(2)2(8) ring. In the N,N-dimethylformamide disolvate, C18H20N6O2S2·2C3H7NO, (II), the independent molecular components all lie in general positions, but one of the solvent molecules is disordered over two sets of atomic sites having occupancies of 0.839 (3) and 0.161 (3). The O-C-C-O torsion angle in the ArOCH2CH2OAr component is -75.91 (14)° and the independent thiosemicarbazide fragments both adopt a cis-planar arrangement relative to the adjacent aryl rings. The ArOCH2CH2OAr components in (II) are linked by N-H...S hydrogen bonds to form deeply puckered sheets containing R(2)2(8), R(2)4(8) and two types of R(2)2(38) rings, and which contain cavities which accommodate all of the solvent molecules in the interior of the sheets. Comparisons are made with some related compounds.

Abstract
Copper(II)bis(thiosemicarbazonato) complexes such as [(64)Cu]Cu-ATSM continue to be investigated for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of tumour hypoxia. However, the currently proposed mechanisms for the mode of action of these complexes are unable to account fully for their observed biological behaviour. In order to examine the roles of the copper metal and the ligand, we designed a pair of (123)I/(64)Cu-copper bis(thiosemicarbazonates), radiolabelled at either the metal or at the ligand. In vitro cellular retention studies of the orthogonal pair demonstrate for the first time that retention under hypoxia involves dissociation of the copper bis(thiosemicarbazone) complex, consistent with the previously suggested mechanism of reductive trapping of copper. In contrast, in vivo biodistribution and dynamic PET/SPECT imaging of the orthogonally labelled complexes underline our previous findings for [(64)Cu]Cu-ATSM and [(64)Cu]Cu-acetate, providing further support for the important contribution of copper metabolism in the in vivo hypoxia selectivity of Cu-ATSM. This dual radiolabelling approach may find applications for determining the speciation of other metal complexes in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
The neutral nickel(ii) complexes are chameleon pro-radical compounds: under their one-electron oxidized form they feature an iminosemiquinonate (or iminothiosemiquinonate) radical, while under their reduced form they are α-diimine π-radicals.

Abstract
Localized hypoxia, the physiological hallmark of many clinical pathologies, is the consequence of acute or chronic ischemia in the affected region or tissue. The versatility, sensitivity, quantitative nature, and increasing availability of positron emission tomography (PET) make it the preclinical and clinical method of choice for functional imaging of tissue hypoxia at the molecular level. The progress and current status of radiotracers for hypoxia-specific PET imaging are reviewed in this article including references mainly focused on radiochemistry and also relevant to molecular imaging of hypoxia in preclinical and clinical studies.
