Bioactivity of Ionic Liquids Based on Valproate in SH-SY5Y Human Neuroblastoma ...
Dias, Ana Rita; Ferraz, Ricardo; Costa-Rodrigues, João; Santos, Andreia F. M.; Jacinto, Manuel L.; Prudêncio, Cristina; Noronha, João PauloThe search for alternative and effective therapies to fight cancer is one of the main goals of the pharmaceutical industry. Recently, ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as potential therapeutic agents with antitumor properties. The goal of this study was to synthesize and evaluate the bioactivity of different ILs coupled with the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) valproate (VPA) as an antitumor agent. The to...

Antitumor Activity of Ionic Liquids Based on Ampicillin
Ferraz, Ricardo; Costa-Rodrigues, João; Fernandes, Maria H.; Santos, Miguel; Marrucho, I. M.; Rebelo, Luis P. N.; Prudêncio, CristinaSignificant antiproliferative effects against various tumor cell lines were observed with novel ampicillin salts as ionic liquids. The combination of anionic ampicillin with appropriate ammonium, imidazolium, phosphonium, and pyridinium cations yielded active pharmaceutical ingredient ionic liquids (API-ILs) that show potent antiproliferative activities against five different human cancer cell lines: T47D (brea...
