“…With the advancements in boron neutron capture therapy and the approval of the bortezomib (Velcade®), the first boron-containing therapeutic approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the interest in the potential applications of BCCs has exponentially increased in the last two decades. Boron containing compounds (BCC) can exhibit an extensive range of biological effects, including anticancer 21 , antiviral 14,22 , antifungal 23,24 , antibacterial 14,25 , antiprotozoal [26][27][28] , antibiotic 29 , anticancerogenic 30 , antimutagenic 31 , anti-inflammatory 32,33 , anti-oxidative 34,35 as well as antiangiogenic 36 . This is due to their stability, broad range of reactivity and low toxicity.…”
