This work deals with studying a molecular mechanism of anticancer effect of a new platinum - based drug. The qualities of still unknow dinuclear platinum komplex (BBR3571-DACH) were parallelly studied together with clinically time-tested and used mononuclear platinum complex DACH. Earlier essays demostrated, that DNA is the critical target for the cytostatic activity of platinum compounds. Altered properties of DNA and binding characteristics of these two platinum compounds were monitored by several different bioanalytical methods (differential pulse polarography, UV-VIS spectrophotometry, fluorescence spectrophotometry, CD spectroscopy and electrophoresis) after modification of DNA by both of platinum complexes. For the compounds BBR3571-DACH and DACH it was determined that the DNA binding is rapid and bifunctional. The stabilizing effect on DNA was significant particularly after modification of DNA by dinuclear komplex, while denaturating effect wasn´t proved at all. The results also indicate that dinuclear platinum complex BBR3571-DACH probably does not participate on formation of long-range cross-links like other early studied polynuclear platinum complexes.
