Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p> <bold>Invited for the cover</bold> of this issue are the groups of Jonathan Sessler at The University of Texas at Austin and Zahid Siddik at The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas. The cover picture depicts a tumor‐targeting texaphyrin platinum(IV) conjugate that undergoes controlled reduction and subsequent release of the platinum moiety that can then bind DNA. This conjugate is found to inhibit cell proliferation in ovarian cancer cell lines.
