diamminebis(ursodeoxycholate(O,O'))platinum(II)

07/01/1997 - "The results point to the potential usefulness of Bamet-R2 in the antitumoral therapy of enterohepatic-derived neoplasias."
10/29/1998 - "In all 3 models, tumor growth was inhibited by Bamet-R2 and cisplatin to a similar degree. "
10/15/2000 - "Since both plain liposomes and Bamet-R2 have little toxicity, the formulation of this compound in liposomes may offer a substantial advantage over cisplatin in the treatment of tumors resistant to this anti-neoplastic agent."
10/29/1998 - "The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of the new liver organotropic complex of cisplatin with glycocholate (GC), Bamet-R2, to interact with DNA, inhibit its replication and hence reduce tumor-cell proliferation. "
04/01/2002 - "These results suggest a role for carriers of organic anions and cations in Bamet-R2 and Bamet-UD2 uptake, which may determine their ability to accumulate in liver tumor cells and/or be taken up and efficiently excreted by hepatocytes."

10/29/1998 - "This effect ranged from mild to strong, depending upon the sensitivity of the different cell types as follows: cisplatin, rat hepatocytes in primary culture < rat hepatoma McA-RH7777 cells (rH) < human colon carcinoma LS 174T cells (hCC) < mouse hepatoma Hepa 1-6 cells (mH); Bamet-R2, rat hepatocytes < mH approximately equal to hCC < rH. "
06/01/2001 - "Using orthotopically implanted mouse Hepa 1-6 hepatoma in the liver of Nude mice, the antitumor effect of Bamet-UD2 was compared with that of a previously characterized compound of this family, Bamet-R2 [cis-diamminebis-ursodeoxycholate platinum(II)], and cisplatin. "
03/01/2003 - "We have investigated the sensitivity of the cisplatin-resistant enterohepatic tumor cell lines LS174T/R (human colon adenocarcinoma), WIF-B9/R (rat hepatoma-human fibroblast hybrid), and Hepa 1-6/R (mouse hepatoma) to free and liposome-encapsulated cytostatic bile acid derivatives Bamet-R2 and bamet-UD2. "

07/01/1997 - "The cytostatic effect of Bamet-R2 was particularly strong against human colon adenocarcinoma LS174T cells. "
10/01/2005 - "The proapoptotic effect of cisplatin bile acid derivatives Bamet-R2 [cis-diamminechloro-cholylglycinate-platinum(II)] and Bamet-UD2 [cis-diammine-bisursodeoxycholate-platinum(II)], developed to treat liver and intestinal tumors, was investigated in vitro using human enterohepatic cells HepG2 (hepatoblastoma), LS 174T (colon adenocarcinoma), and its cisplatin-resistant subline LS 174T/R. "
03/01/2003 - "We have investigated the sensitivity of the cisplatin-resistant enterohepatic tumor cell lines LS174T/R (human colon adenocarcinoma), WIF-B9/R (rat hepatoma-human fibroblast hybrid), and Hepa 1-6/R (mouse hepatoma) to free and liposome-encapsulated cytostatic bile acid derivatives Bamet-R2 and bamet-UD2. "

09/01/1999 - "The amount of Bamet-R2 or cisplatin retained by GST-P-positive tissue after in vivo administration was progressively increased during carcinogenesis. "
09/01/1999 - "Thus, we investigated whether glycocholate (GC) derivatives such as the fluorescent FITC-GC and the cytostatic Bamet-R2 are taken up by neoplastic tissue at different stages of chemically-induced rat liver carcinogenesis. "

10/01/2005 - "The proapoptotic effect of cisplatin bile acid derivatives Bamet-R2 [cis-diamminechloro-cholylglycinate-platinum(II)] and Bamet-UD2 [cis-diammine-bisursodeoxycholate-platinum(II)], developed to treat liver and intestinal tumors, was investigated in vitro using human enterohepatic cells HepG2 (hepatoblastoma), LS 174T (colon adenocarcinoma), and its cisplatin-resistant subline LS 174T/R.
