  • defusion or diffusion?

  • so does cisplatin bound to DNA of "good" cells and kill them too?

  • @jasonchuu

    Yes! Cisplatin is one of the chemotherapeutic drug with most severe side effects!

  • If you are interested in the discovery of Cisplatin, look for the entry on Barnett Rosenberg at the Michigan State Sesquicentennial Oral History Project. In the mp3 audio of part 1/3, Rosenberg describes the discovery of Cisplatin around the 24 minute mark.

  • Cool this cleared up a few missing pieces of information for my chem study lol. But doesn't the cisplatin become hydrolysed upon entering the cell?

  • Actually cisplatin gets aquated which is where the charge on the Pt comes from, which is what enables it to bind to DNA

  • "Wild Cat" is the most ridiculous song for this movie possible.

  • this is very creative animation

    may i inquire about recent advances regarding nanoparticles of cisplatin

  • thats not how it works. Pt binds, mmr proteins attempt to repair the damage and when it proves impossible they trigger apoptosis. thats why it doesnt work on cancer cells that lack mmr machinery. there is no alkylation/kink creating step.

  • nice animation! However I have to agree with mforrest24 that the compuond that react with DNA is the diaqua compound. Also maybe you could improve the DNA-binding step. In the video the chlorine go away and then cisplatin react with the 2 Gs. Actually the reaction is more that the nitrogen on the G attacks the Pt atom displacing the OH2 groups. But again, is a very good job

  • Comment removed

  • What happens to the chlorine?

  • You misspelled "diffusion" in the video.

  • What's up with the song? lol

  • @AmokBR Its a song by Ratatat. I believe the song is called wildcat

  • @CarnalDiafragma Thx a bunch

  • Great video; however, cisplatin hydrolyzes after entering the cell in the aqua and diaqua, which is the form that attacks the DNA.

  • oh wonderful , thx really . nice job .

  • Very helpful!

  • Really good video, really help me understand how it word.
