RESUMEN

Pancreatic cancer, is an aggressive type of cancer and the most common malignancy with a poor prognosis regarding metastatic disease (survival < 10 %). The development of Novel chemotherapeutic drugs holds significant prospects for practical applications. Here, this work focuses on the interaction between two lanthanide complexes, Yb-BZA and Er-BZA, with DNA, as well as their anticancer activity against pancreatic cancer. The relationship between complexes and DNA is revealed by fluorescence, absorption spectral titration, cyclic voltammetric (CV) experiments, indicating that the Yb-BZA and Er-BZA interact with FS-DNA by bind groove. Moreover, molecular docking technology was utilized to confirm the binding of Yb-BZA and Er-BZA with 1BNA and 4AV1. The cytotoxic effects of Yb-BZA and Er-BZA on cancer cells BxPC-3 were evaluated, Yb-BZA (IC50 = 6.459 µg/mL) is more effective than oxaliplatin (IC50 = 16.46 µg/mL) evaluated using cytotoxicity assay. Yb-BZA and Er-BZA has the potential to become a chemotherapy drug for pancreatic cancer cells.
