“…It was determined that some of these platinum complexes have in vitro cytotoxic activities on RD 9 , HeLa 12,[14][15][16] , MCF-7 10,12,[14][15][16] , and HEp-2 16 cell lines. In the present study, as an extension of the investigation on the probable anticancer activity of platinum complexes with 2-substituted benzimidazole ligands, four Pt(II) complexes with bulky, near-planar, hydrophobic amine ligands, including 2-ethyl (1), benzyl (2), p-chlorobenzyl (3), and phenoxymethyl (4) benzimidazoles, were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activities against the human HeLa cervix, oestrogen receptorpositive MCF-7 breast, and oestrogen receptor-negative MDA-MB 231 breast cancer cell lines.…”
