Development of a series of bis-triazoles as G-quadruplex ligands (2017)
Journal Article
Saleh, M., Laughton, C. A., Bradshaw, T. D., & Moody, C. J. (in press). Development of a series of bis-triazoles as G-quadruplex ligands. RSC Advances, 7, https://doi.org/10.1039/c7ra07257k

Maintenance of telomeres – specialized complexes that protect the ends of chromosomes – is provided by the enzyme complex telomerase, which is a key factor that is activated in more than 80% of cancer cells, but absent in most normal cells. Targeting... Read More about Development of a series of bis-triazoles as G-quadruplex ligands.

Using titanium complexes to defeat cancer: the view from the shoulders of titans (2017)
Journal Article
Cini, M., Bradshaw, T. D., & Woodward, S. (in press). Using titanium complexes to defeat cancer: the view from the shoulders of titans. Chemical Society Reviews, https://doi.org/10.1039/C6CS00860G

When the first titanium complex with anticancer activity was identified in the 1970s, it was attractive, based on the presence of the dichloride unit in TiCl2Cp2 (Cp = ?-C5H5)2, to assume its mode of biological action was closely aligned with cisplat...
