| Summary: | Two new mixed ligand-silver(
i
) complexes of the anti-inflammatory drug naproxen (naprH) and triphenylphosphine (tpp) or tri(
p
-tolyl)phosphine (tptp) of formulae {[Ag(tpp)
3
(napr)](H

O)} (
1
) and [Ag(tptp)
2
(napr)] (
2
) have been synthesized and characterized by m.p., vibrational spectroscopy (mid-FT-IR), Raman,
1
H-NMR, UV-Vis, ESI-MS spectroscopic techniques and X-ray crystallography. The complexes show high photo-sensitivity to UVC light. Photolysis of
1-2
was studied and the results showed monotonic degradation of the complexes with simultaneous triarylphosphine oxide formation. The complexes
1-2
were tested for their antiproliferative activity against human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) cells. Complexes
1-2
were more active than cisplatin against cells. UVC light increases the effectiveness of complexes
1-2
on MCF-7 cells by 13% and 38% respectively. Due to the morphology of the MCF-7 cells, which were incubated with the complexes
1-2
, the cell death was ascribed to apoptosis. Electrophoresis to genomic DNA of MCF-7 cells confirmed the apoptosis through DNA fragmentation. The binding affinity of
1-2
towards the intracellular molecules CT-DNA and lipoxygenase (LOX) was studied for the evaluation of the mechanism of cell death. Thus, the binding constants (
K
b
) of
1-2
towards CT-DNA calculated by UV-Vis spectra are 32.8 ± 8.5 × 10
4
(
1
) and 4.7 ± 1.8 × 10
4
(
2
) M
−1
, respectively. Changes in fluorescent emission light of ethidium bromide (EB) in the presence of DNA suggest intercalation or electrostatic interactions into DNA of both complexes
1-2
in the minor groove. The corresponding apparent binding constants (
K
app
) of
1-2
towards CT-DNA calculated through fluorescence spectra are 2.9 ± 0.3 × 10
4
(
1
) and 1.6 ± 0.4 × 10
4
(
2
) M
−1
respectively. Docking studies on DNA-complexes interactions show the binding of
1
in the major groove and the corresponding one of
2
in the minor one. Moreover, the influence of complexes
1-2
on the catalytic peroxidation of linoleic acid to hydroperoxylinoleic acid by the enzyme lipoxygenase (LOX) was kinetically and theoretically studied. Only
1
inhibits lipoxygenase activity (IC
50
= 5.1 (
1
), >30 (
2
) μM).
Silver(
i
) complexes (

) of the anti-inflammatory drug naproxen were evaluated for their binding properties towards lipoxygenase and CT-DNA and the results are compared with their
in vitro
cytotoxicity. UVC light increases the effectiveness of complexes

on MCF-7 cells by 15.3% and |
