Abstract

Control of breast cancer using metal-containing polymers based on cell line results

Highlights

  • Metal-containing polymers have shown good activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells

  • MDA-MB-231 cells are estrogen-independent; estrogen receptor negative while the MCF-7 cells are estrogen receptor (ER+) positive and the combination are used as a matched pair

  • The focus in the current paper is on Group 4 metallocene, Group 15 and organotin polymers and their ability to control breast cancer

Summary

Introduction

Metal-containing polymers have shown good activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells. Organotin polymers showed intermediate ability to inhibit breast cancer cell growth. In this paper we introduce cell line data related to the use of metal-containing polymers with reference to controlling the growth of two human breast cancer cell lines.
