RESUMEN

The effect of three novel complexes of Pt(II) and three complexes of Pd(II) with 2-acetylpyridine thiosemicarbazone (HAcTsc) on sister chromatid exchange (SCE) rates and human lymphocyte proliferation kinetics on a molar basis was studied. Also, the effect of Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes against leukemia P388 was investigated. Among these compounds, the most effective in inducing antitumor and cytogenetic effects were the complexes [Pt(AcTsc)2] x H2O and [Pd(AcTsc)2] while the rest, i.e. (HAcTsc), [Pt(AcTsc)Cl], [Pt(HAcTsc)2]Cl2 x 2H2O, [Pd(AcTsc)Cl] and [Pd(HAcTsc)2]Cl2, displayed marginal cytogenetic and antitumor effects.
