Abstract
- The in vitro inter- and intra-cellular distribution of an isotopically labelled ruthenium(ii)–arene (RAPTA) anti-metastatic compound in human ovarian cancer cells was imaged using nano-scale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS). Ultra-high resolution isotopic images of 13C, 15N, and Ru indicate that the phosphine ligand remains coordinated to the ruthenium(ii) ion whereas the arene detaches. The complex localizes mainly on the membrane or at the interface between cells which correlates with its anti-metastatic effects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
