Vanadium compounds have been primarily investigated as potential therapeutic agents for
the treatment of various major health issues, including cancer, atherosclerosis, and …

Background Vanadium (V) is an element with a wide range of effects on the mammalian
organism. The ability of this metal to form organometallic compounds has contributed to the …

The understanding of the role of vanadium enzymes and of vanadium compounds (VCs) in
biology, as well as the design of new vanadium-based species for catalysis, materials …

In the last 30 years, since the discovery that vanadium is a cofactor found in certain enzymes
of tunicates and possibly in mammals, different vanadium-based drugs have been …

The interpretation of in vitro cytotoxicity data of Cu (II)-1, 10-phenanthroline (phen)
complexes normally does not take into account the speciation that complexes undergo in …

Abstract V IV O-complexes formulated as [V IV O (OSO 3)(phen) 2](1)(phen= 1, 10-

The chemistry and short lifetimes of metal‐based anti‐cancer drugs can be turned into an
advantage for direct injections into tumors, which then allow the use of highly cytotoxic …

In aqueous media, VIV-and VV-ions and compounds undergo chemical changes such as
hydrolysis, ligand exchange and redox reactions that depend on pH and concentration of …

Anti-cancer activities of vanadium compounds have generated recent interest because of a
combination of desirable properties for chemotherapy, ie, strong cytotoxicities, anti …

Vanadium complexes (VCs) are promising agents for the treatment, among others, of
diabetes and cancer. The development of vanadium-based drugs is mainly limited by a …
