The metallodendrons exhibit higher cytotoxic activity towards glioblastoma stem cells (BTSC233, JHH520, NCH644, and SF188 cell lines) and U87 glioblastoma cells (IC50 was 3–6 μM for copper‐containing dendron and 11–15 μM for gold‐containing dendron) in comparison with temozolomide (IC50 >100 μM)—the clinical standard of care for glioblastoma.
