The effects of a few cytotoxic organogold(III) compounds on ovarian A2780 human cancer cells were investigated in comparison to cisplatin and oxaliplatin. The tested compounds produced significant antiproliferative effects and promoted apoptosis to a greater extent than platinum drugs while causing only modest cell cycle modifications. The mechanistic implications of these findings are discussed: mitochondrial pathways are proposed to be directly involved in the apoptotic process in relation to selective inhibition of thioredoxin reductase.
