Abstract
In recent years, extensive research has been directed towards understanding the interactions between various zinc complexes with DNA, specifically delving into their intercalation and binding behaviors. The binding of zinc complexes to DNA is particularly intriguing due to their distinctive intercalating capabilities. This study unveils a remarkable phenomenon observed with a specific Zn complex, ([B-Zn-N3], where B is a Schiff base ligand), during DNA intercalation investigations in the popular DMSO-Water binary solvent mixture. An unanticipated observation revealed time-dependent changes in the UV-visible absorption spectroscopic studies, coupled with the existence of an isosbestic point. This observation questions the stability of the intercalating agent itself during the intercalation process. The emergence of a decomposed product during the intercalation study has been confirmed through various analytical techniques, including CHN analysis, MALDI mass, XPS, Raman spectroscopy, and Powder XRD. The change in the chemical species on intercalation is further substantiated by theoretical studies, adding depth to our understanding of the intricate dynamics at play during DNA intercalation with the [B-Zn-N3] complex in the DMSO-Water system.

Abstract
After the discovery of cisplatin, many metal compounds were investigated for the therapy of diseases, especially cancer. The high therapeutic potential of metal-based compounds is related to the special properties of these compounds, such as their redox activity and ability to target vital biological sites. The overproduction of ROS and the consequent destruction of the membrane potential of mitochondria and/or the DNA helix is one of the known pathways leading to the induction of apoptosis by metal complexes. The apoptosis process can occur via the death receptor pathway and/or the mitochondrial pathway. The expression of Bcl2 proteins and the caspase family play critical roles in these pathways. In addition to apoptosis, autophagy is another process that regulates the suppression or promotion of various cancers through a dual action. On the other hand, the ability to interact with DNA is an important property found in several metal complexes with potent antiproliferative effects against cancer cells. These interactions were classified into two important categories: covalent/coordinated or subtle, and non-coordinated interactions. The anticancer activity of metal complexes is sometimes achieved by the simultaneous combination of several mechanisms. In this review, the anticancer effect of metal complexes is mechanistically discussed by different pathways, and some effective agents on their antiproliferative properties are explained.

Abstract
We have synthesized and characterized nine Ag(I) complexes of Schiff bases containing thiophene, furan, and pyridine moieties for in vitro antibacterial, antioxidant, anticancer activities, and DNA/bovine serum albumin (BSA) binding studies. Based on the analytical and spectral analyses, a linear geometry was proposed for all the Ag(I) complexes, except for one (with the furan moiety), which formed a distorted T-shaped geometry. UV-vis absorption studies on the interactions of calf thymus-DNA (CT-DNA) with the nine Ag(I) complexes pointed to an intercalative binding mode. With a binding constant Kb of 3.75 × 105 M-1 , the complex bearing a benzothiazole moiety (1) interacted stronger with CT-DNA than the rest of the complexes. Fluorescence spectroscopic data revealed that the complexes had a modest binding affinity for BSA through static quenching. The complexes displayed good antioxidant properties, especially those with a benzothiazole moiety. Notable antibacterial activities against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella pneumoniae were observed for complexes with the furan and thiophene moieties. The in vitro anticancer studies of selected complexes against three cancer cell lines showed that the complexes were more effective against the inhibition of the growth of cervical cancer cells relative to cisplatin.
