Cu(II)-Elesclomol is a Cu2+ complex of Elesclomol (HY-12040). Cu(II)-Elesclomol induces cuproptosis. Cu(II)-Elesclomol also inducesapoptosis, causes a G1 cell cycle block and induces DNA double strand breaks in K562 cells. Cu(II)-Elesclomol also weakly inhibits DNA topoisomerase I. Cu(II)-Elesclomol has anticancer activity[1].
