DpC is an iron-chelating agent.
DpC is an iron-chelating agent. In four separate human pancreatic tumor cell lines, DpC significantly increased the expression and phosphorylation of the growth and metastasis suppressor, N-myc down-stream regulated gene 1 (NDRG1) and the cdk inhibitpr p21CIP1/WAF. DpC completely blocked PANC-1 tumor growth in mouse xenografts.

The present study aimed to investigate the antitumor efficacy of di-2-pyridylketone-4-cyclohexyl-4-methyl-3-thiosemicarbazone (DpC) and di-2-pyridylketone-4,4,-dimethyl-3-thiosemicarbazone (Dp44mT) on head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cells. The proliferation and apoptosis of HNSCC cells treated with the iron chelators DpC and Dp44mT were
