Biomedical uses and applications of inorganic chemistry. An overview

Author: Farrell, N.

Description: This article serves as an overview of the topics covered in this special issue dealing with aspects of biomedical inorganic chemistry. Topics include metal ions in disease (the use of chelating agents), metalloproteins as drug targets, organelles as targets (the mitochondrion), metal–drug interactions, metal-based chemotherapuetic drugs, and radioisotopes in medicine. The current activity and topical importance of these various areas are briefly discussed.
