Research Abstract |
TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) having a C3-symmetric homotrimeric structure induces the apoptosis in various tumor cells and tissues through the interaction with death receptor (DR) on cell surface. In this study, we have addressed the design and synthesis of new C3-symmetric tris-cyclometalated Ir complexes having dual activity both agonist activity for apoptosis induction and luminescent imaging of cancer cells.Staining experiments of Jurkat cell with Ir complex having the DR5 binding cyclic peptide suggested that green emission was localized on the cell membrane. Moreover, flow cytometer analysis suggested that the correlation between DR5 expressions of cancer cells (Jurkat cells, Molt-4 cells, K562 cells) and emission intensities derived from Ir complex. Optimizations of Ir complexes for improvement of their TRAIL-like activity are undergoing.
