In this communication, we demonstrate that two ruthenium complexes previously reported by our group for their chemotherapeutic potential against cancer, namely [Ru(DIP)2(sq)](PF6) and [Ru(DIP)2(3-methoxysq)](PF6), where DIP is 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline, sq = semiquinonate and 3-methoxysq = 3-methoxysemiquinonate, form colloids in water-DMSO (1% v/v) mixtures that are invisible to the naked eyes.

Autism candidate gene disconnected-interacting protein homolog 2 A (DIP2A) is known to be involved in acetylated coenzyme A (Ac-CoA) synthesis and is primarily expressed in the brain regions with abundant pyramidal neurons.
Control cats had higher pain scores than DIP3 cats by UNESP ( P = 0.0065), and DIP2 ( P = 0.0035) and DIP3 cats ( P = 0.0108) by VAS 3 h postoperatively.
Compared with some DD candidate genes that have been extensively studied (e.g., DYX1C1, DCDC2, KIAA0319, and ROBO1), very little is known about the association between candidate gene DIP2A and DD susceptibility.
The ruthenium polypyridyl complexes [Ru(dip)2(bpy/bpy-2-nitroIm)](2+) (dip = 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, bpy-2-nitroIm = 4-[3-(2-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)propyl]) were found to be ca. ten times more cytotoxic against breast cancer (4T1) and human lung adenocarcinoma epithelial cells (A549) than a well-known anticancer drug, cisplatin.

Altogether, our findings establish an initial link between DIP2A gene variations in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and highlight the contribution of synaptic protein acetylation to synaptic processing.
