Abstract

Methotrexate (MTX) is a widely used anticancer agent whose DNA binding properties are well known. Despite its consolidated usage in the therapeutics of cancer, the physicochemical features of MTX binding to healthy and neoplastic DNA are still not fully understood. Therefore, this work showcases the electrochemical study of MTX binding to distinct DNA sequences through voltametric approaches.
Keywords: antineoplastic; diffusion coefficient; bioelectrochemistry; DNA; voltammetry antineoplastic; diffusion coefficient; bioelectrochemistry; DNA; voltammetry
