Abstract
Myeloid leukemia denotes a hematologic malignancy characterized by aberrant proliferation and impaired differentiation of blood progenitor cells within the bone marrow. Despite the availability of several treatment options, the clinical outlook for individuals afflicted with myeloid leukemia continues to be unfavorable, making it a challenging disease to manage. Over the past, substantial endeavors have been dedicated to the identification of novel targets and the advancement of enhanced therapeutic modalities to ameliorate the management of this disease, resulting in the discovery of many clinically approved small-molecule drugs for myeloid leukemia, including histone deacetylase inhibitors, hypomethylating agents, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. This comprehensive review succinctly presents an up-to-date assessment of the application and synthetic routes of clinically sanctioned small-molecule drugs employed in the treatment of myeloid leukemia. Additionally, it provides a concise exploration of the pertinent challenges and prospects encompassing drug resistance and toxicity. Overall, this review effectively underscores the considerable promise exhibited by clinically endorsed small-molecule drugs in the therapeutic realm of myeloid leukemia, while concurrently shedding light on the prospective avenues that may shape the future landscape of drug development within this domain.

Abstract
A set each of new bivalent and trivalent ruthenium complexes, [Ru(III)(HL)Cl2(EPh3)2] and [Ru(II)(L)(CO)(EPh3)2] (E = P (complexes and ) or As (complexes and )) were synthesised from the reactions of [Ru(III)Cl3(EPh3)3] with 2-hydroxynaphthaldehyde benzoic acid hydrazone (H2L) in methanol-chloroform and characterized by elemental analysis, spectral data and XRD study. A suitable mechanism to account for the formation of bivalent ruthenium carbonyl complexes from the corresponding trivalent precursors is provided by considering the role of added base in the reaction. Interaction of complexes with CT-DNA/bovine serum albumin was analysed with absorption and emission spectral titration studies. In vitro cytotoxic potential of the above ruthenium hydrazone complexes assayed against the A549 cell line revealed a significant growth inhibition. The test complexes added in IC50 concentration into the cell culture medium enhanced the release of lactate dehydrogenase, NO and reactive oxygen species in comparison with the control. Cell death induced by the complexes was studied using a propidium iodide staining assay and showed noticeable changes in the cell morphology which resembled apoptosis.

Abstract
2- and 9-Anthracenecarboxamide labeled 2'-deoxyuridines were synthesized and their photophysical properties were examined. These oligonucleonucleotide probes are capable of detecting adenine base on a target DNA sequence. It was also found that 2-anthracene based oligonucleotide probe is more efficient than the corresponding 9-anthracene based oligonucleotide in the application for DNA chip based SNP detection, due to its longer emission wavelength and high fluorescence intensity.

Abstract
The binding properties of two anthracene derivatives with calf thymus DNA (CT DNA), poly(dA-dT), and poly(dG) x poly(dC) are reported. One contained bulky, cyclic cationic substituents at the 9 and 10 positions, and the other carried acylic, branched, cationic substituents. Binding of the probes to the DNA was examined by calorimetry, spectroscopy and helix melting studies. The cyclic derivative indicated exothermic binding, strong hypochromism, bathochromism, positive induced circular dichroism (CD, 300-400 nm), significant unwinding of the helix, large increases in the helix melting temperature, strong but negative linear dichroism (LD, 300-400 nm) and considerable stabilization of the helix. In contrast, the acyclic analog indicated thermoneutral binding, smaller hypochromism, no bathochromism, very weak induced CD, and no change in the helix melting temperature with any of the DNA polymers. A sharp distinction between the binding properties of the two probes is indicated, and both have intrinsic binding constants of approximately 10(6) M(-1) for the three polymers. However, when the ionic strength of the medium was lowered (10 mM NaCl), the absorption as well as CD spectral changes associated with the binding of the acyclic derivative corresponded with those of the cyclic derivative. The acyclic derivative showed large preference (10-fold) for poly(dG) x poly(dC) over poly(dA-dT), whereas the cyclic analog showed no preference. The characteristic spectroscopic signatures of the two distinct binding modes of these probes will be helpful in deciphering the interaction of other anthracene derivatives with DNA.

Abstract
DNA-processing enzymes, such as the topoisomerases (tops), represent major targets for potent anticancer (and antibacterial) agents. The drugs kill cells by poisoning the enzymes' catalytic cycle. Understanding the molecular details of top poisoning is a fundamental requisite for the rational development of novel, more effective antineoplastic drugs. In this connection, sequence-specific recognition of the top-DNA complex is a key step to preferentially direct the action of the drugs onto selected genomic sequences. In fact, the (reversible) interference of drugs with the top-DNA complex exhibits well-defined preferences for DNA bases in the proximity of the cleavage site, each drug showing peculiarities connected to its structural features. A second level of selectivity can be observed when chemically reactive groups are present in the structure of the top-directed drug. In this case, the enzyme recognizes or generates a unique site for covalent drug-DNA binding. This will further subtly modulate the drug's efficiency in stimulating DNA damage at selected sites. Finally, drugs can discriminate not only among different types of tops, but also among different isoenzymes, providing an additional level of specific selection. Once the molecular basis for DNA sequence-dependent recognition has been established, the above-mentioned modes to generate selectivity in drug poisoning can be rationally exploited, alone or in combination, to develop tailor-made drugs targeted at defined loci in cancer cells.

Abstract
Bis(hydroxy)salen.Fe complexes were designed as self-activated chemical nucleases. The presence of a hy-droxyl group on the two salicylidene moieties serve to form a hydroquinone system cooperating with the iron redox system to facilitate spontaneous formation of free radicals. We compared the DNA binding and cleaving properties of the ortho -, meta- and para -(bishydroxy) salen.Fe complexes with that of the corresponding chelate lacking the hydroxyl groups. DNA melting temperature studies indicated that the para complex exhibits the highest affinity for DNA. In addition, this para compound was considerably more potent at cleaving supercoiled plasmid DNA than the regio-isomeric ortho - and meta -hydroxy-salen.Fe complexes, even in the absence of a reducing agent, such as dithiothreitol used to activate the metal complex. The DNA cleaving activity of the para isomer is both time and concentration dependent and the complexed iron atom is absolutely essential for the sequence uniform cleavage of DNA. From a mechanistic point of view, electron spin resonance measurements suggest that DNA contributes positively to the activation of the semi-quinone system and the production of ligand radical species responsible for subsequent strand scission in the absence of a reducing agent. The para -hydroxy-salen.Fe complex has been used for detecting sequence-specific drug-DNA interactions. Specific binding of Hoechst 33258 to AT sequences and chromomycin to GC sequences were shown. The para -bis(hydroxy)salen.Fe derivative complements the tool box of footprinting reagents which can be utilised to produce efficient cleavage of DNA.

Abstract
The DNA sequence selectivity of topoisomerase II (top2)-DNA cleavage complexes was examined for the human (top2alpha), yeast, and Escherichia coli (i.e. gyrase) enzymes in the absence or presence of anticancer or antibacterial drugs. Species-specific differences were observed for calcium-promoted DNA cleavage. Similarities and differences in DNA cleavage patterns and nucleic acid sequence preferences were also observed between the human, yeast, and E. coli top2 enzymes in the presence of the non-intercalators fluoroquinolone CP-115,953, etoposide, and azatoxin and the intercalators amsacrine and mitoxantrone. Additional base preferences were generally observed for the yeast when compared with the human top2alpha enzyme. Preferences in the immediate flanks of the top2-mediated DNA cleavage sites are, however, consistent with the drug stacking model for both enzymes. We also analyzed and compared homologous mutations in yeast and human top2, i.e. Ser(740) --> Trp and Ser(763) --> Trp, respectively. Both mutations decreased the reversibility of the etoposide-stabilized cleavage sites and produced consistent base sequence preference changes. These data demonstrate similarities and differences between human and yeast top2 enzymes. They also indicate that the structure of the enzyme/DNA interface plays a key role in determining the specificity of top2 poisons and cleavage sites for both the intercalating and non-intercalating drugs.
