Targeting Estrogen Receptor Sites in Human Breast Cancer Cell Line T47D With Copper Conjugates of Nonsteriodal Anti-inflammatory Drug Derivatives: Antiproliferative Activity of Ketoprofen Derivative and its Copper Complex.

A square planar copper complex of derivatized NSAID drug (Ketoprofen thiosemicarbazone [3-benzoyl-alpha-methyl benzene acetic acid thiosemicarbazone]), is characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopy, electrochemistry and magnetic susceptibility studies which exhibits dose-dependent and enhanced antiproliferative effects on human breast cancer cell line T47D rich in progesterone receptors.
