Exposure to metals can be therapeutic

Because of the widespread epigenetic changes ensuing from carcinogenesis, structural and chemical features of chromatin provide unique targets for developing safer and more effective anticancer drugs. Metal-based agents have a potential advantage over other small molecular species in that characteri...

Metal-based agents have a potential advantage over other small molecular species in that characteristics of coordination geometry, redox state and ligand exchange allow one to fine-tune reactivity and affinity properties in a distinct fashion.
