Abstract
As an emerging anticancer strategy, ferroptosis has recently been developed in combination with current therapeutic modalities to overcome the existing limitations of conventional therapies. Herein, an ultraviolet (UV) upconversion luminescence-fueled nanoreactor is explored to combine ferroptosis and apoptosis through the UV-catalyzed Fenton reaction of an iron supplement (ferric ammonium citrate) loaded in a mesoporous silica layer in addition to the support of a chemotherapeutic agent (cisplatin) attached on the functionalized silica surface for the treatment of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). The nanoplatform can circumvent the low penetration depth typical of UV light by upconverting near-infrared irradiation and emitting UV photons that convert Fe3+ to Fe2+ to boost the generation of hydroxyl radicals (·OH), causing devastating lipid peroxidation. Apart from DNA damage-induced apoptosis, cisplatin can also catalyze Fenton-based therapy by its abundant production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). As a bioinspired lipid membrane, the folate receptor-targeted liposome as the coating layer offers high biocompatibility and colloidal stability for the upconversion nanoparticles, in addition to prevention of the premature release of encapsulated hydrophilic compounds, before driving the nanoformulation to the target tumor site. As a result, superior antitumor efficacy has been observed in a 4T1 tumor-bearing mouse model with negligible side effects, suggesting that such a nanoformulation could play a pivotal role in effective apoptosis-strengthened ferroptosis TNBC therapy.

Nephroprotective effect of exercise training in cisplatin-induced renal damage in mice: influence of training protocol. Braz J Med Biol Res 2022; 55:e12116. [PMID: 35976270 PMCID: PMC9377535 DOI: 10.1590/1414-431x2022e12116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Cisplatin is an effective antineoplastic agent, but its use is limited by its nephrotoxicity caused by the oxidative stress in tubular epithelium of nephrons. On the other hand, regular exercise provides beneficial adaptations in different tissues and organs. As with many drugs, dosing is extremely important to get the beneficial effects of exercise. Thus, we aimed to investigate the influence of exercise intensity and frequency on cisplatin-induced (20 mg/kg) renal damage in mice. Forty male Swiss mice were divided into five experimental groups (n=8 per group): 1) sedentary; 2) low-intensity forced swimming, three times per week; 3) high-intensity forced swimming, three times per week; 4) low-intensity forced swimming, five times per week; and 5) high-intensity forced swimming, five times per week. Body composition, renal structure, functional indicators (plasma urea), lipid peroxidation, antioxidant enzyme activity, expression of genes related to antioxidant defense, and inflammatory and apoptotic pathways were evaluated. Comparisons considered exercise intensity and frequency. High lipid peroxidation was observed in the sedentary group compared with trained mice, regardless of exercise intensity and frequency. Groups that trained three times per week showed more benefits, as reduced tubular necrosis, plasma urea, expression of CASP3 and Rela (NFkB subunit-p65) genes, and increased total glutathione peroxidase activity. No significant difference in Nfe2l2 (Nrf2) gene expression was observed between groups. Eight weeks of regular exercise training promoted nephroprotection against cisplatin-mediated oxidative injury. Exercise frequency was critical for nephroprotection.

Abstract
Cisplatin is one of the most commonly used drugs for the treatment of various solid cancers. However, its efficacy is restricted by severe side effects, especially dose-limiting nephrotoxicity. New platinum-based compounds are designed to overcome this limitation. Previous investigations showed that the platinum(IV)–nitroxyl complex PN149 is highly cytotoxic in various tumor cell lines. In the present study, investigations with PN149 were extended to normal human kidney tubule epithelia. Coincident with higher intracellular platinum accumulation, the cytotoxicity of PN149 in the proximal tubule epithelial cell line ciPTEC was more pronounced compared to the established platinum chemotherapeutics cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplatin. Quantitative gene expression profiling revealed the induction of ROS-inducible and anti-oxidative genes, suggesting an oxidative stress response by PN149. However, in contrast to cisplatin, no pro-inflammatory response was observed. Genes coding for distinct DNA damage response factors and genes related to apoptosis were up-regulated, indicating the activation of the DNA damage response system and induction of the apoptotic cascade by PN149. Altogether, a comparable transcriptional response was observed for PN149 and the platinum chemotherapeutics. However, the lack of inflammatory activity, which is a possible cause contributing to toxicity in human renal proximal tubule epithelia, might indicate the reduced nephrotoxic potential of PN149.

Abstract
Beta 2 microglobulin (Β2M) is expressed in all nucleated cells, it interplays with mediators to regulate and modulate cellular functions. Its role in aging associated disorders has been documented recently. Oxidative stress has been known to play a direct implication on these disorders. Therefore, there is a rationality to explore the function of Β2M in oxidative stress in elderly people. The aim of the study was to assess the Β2M levels in different group of age, and to study the correlation between Β2M and oxidative stress. Actually, the serum levels of Β2M increased significantly in old people comparing to youngers. In addition, there was a positive correlation between Β2M levels and the age of participants (p < 0.001). In addition, there was a positive correlation between Β2M levels and Malondialdehyde (MDA) (p < 0.001), which underscored the possible role of Β2M in oxidative stress. To confirm the previous result, the correlation between total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and Β2M was assessed. There was a negative correlation between them (p < 0.001). These results suggested a possible role of Β2M in oxidative stress status in elderly people; in addition, it suggested the ability of using Β2M as a novel biomarker for oxidative stress. However, further work should be conducted to explore the exact role of Β2M in oxidative stress, and to include large sample size to confirm the results before translating the findings to clinic.

Abstract
Ruthenium(II) complexes offer the potential for lower toxicity compared with platinum(II) complexes. Our study aimed to compare cardiotoxicity of [Ru(Cl-tpy)(en)Cl][Cl], [Ru(Cl-tpy)(dach)Cl][Cl], [Ru(Cl-tpy)(bpy)Cl][Cl], cisplatin, and saline through assessment of redox status and relative expression of apoptosis-related genes. A total of 40 Wistar albino rats were divided into five groups. Ruthenium groups received a single dose of complexes intraperitoneally (4 mg/kg/week) for a 4-week period; cisplatin group received cisplatin (4 mg/kg/week) and control group received saline (4 mL/kg/week) in the same manner as ruthenium groups. In collected blood and heart tissue samples, spectrophotometric determination of oxidative stress biomarkers was performed. The relative expression of apoptosis-related genes (Bcl-2, Bax, and caspase-3) in hearts was examined by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Our results showed that systemic and cardiac pro-oxidative markers (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and nitrite) were significantly lower in ruthenium groups compared with cisplatin group, while concentrations of antioxidative parameters (catalase, superoxide dismutase, and oxidized glutathione) were significantly higher. Ruthenium administration led to significantly lower gene expression of Bax and caspase-3 compared with cisplatin-treated rats, while Bcl-2 remained unchanged. Applied ruthenium complexes have less pronounced potential for induction of oxidative stress-mediated cardiotoxicity compared with cisplatin. These findings may help for future studies that should clarify the mechanisms of cardiotoxicity of ruthenium-based metallodrugs.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effect of taxifolin on cisplatin-induced oxidative and proinflammatory optic nerve damage in rats. METHODS A total of 18 albino Wistar male rats were assigned into 3 groups, as follows; Group 1: Control group, Group 2: Only cisplatin administered group for 14 days (Cisplatin group), and Group 3: Taxifolin + cisplatin administered group for 14 days (CIS + TAX group). Serum malondialdehyde (MDA), total Glutathione (tGSH), Nuclear Factor-Kappa B (NF-ƘB), Total Oxidative Status (TOS) and Total Antioxidant Status (TAS) levels were collected from the left eyes of rats. Rats' right eyes were enucleated for histopathological evaluations of optic nerves. RESULTS NF-ƘB, MDA and TOS levels were statistically significantly higher (p < 0.001) in cisplatin group when compared to other 2 groups, the tGSH and TAS levels of which were statistically significantly lower (p < 0.001). Regarding these parameters, in cisplatin group NF-ƘB, MDA and TOS levels were statistically significantly increased with cisplatin administration and giving taxifolin concomitantly with cisplatin prevented this elevation. On the other hand, tGSH and TAS levels were statistically significantly decreased with cisplatin administration and routine simultaneous application of taxifolin with cisplatin prevented this decrease. In histopathological findings, haemorrhage was observed in the perineum of the injured optic nerves in the cisplatin treated group. And also edoema and degeneration in nerve fascicles in damaged optic nerves were seen in the cisplatin group. In the taxifolin treated group histopathological examinations were close to normal appearance, except mild edoema in nerve fascicles. CONCLUSION Cisplatin causes oxidative stress on the rat optic nerves, and these changes lead to significant histopathological damage. Taxifolin, which we used to prevent oxidative damage to the optic nerves caused by cisplatin, has been emphasized as a powerful antioxidant agent in many previous scientific investigations. Concomitant administration of taxifolin may prevent these adverse effects of cisplatin, as well as histopathological damage. Further studies are needed to fully determine the effects of cisplatin and taxifolin on the eye.

Abstract
RAS-RAF pathway presents a valuable target for the cancer treatment due to its important roles in the regulation of tumor proliferation, apoptosis and the obtained resistance. To explore such target a RAS/CRAF interference agent, was therefore conjugated with Pt(IV) prodrugs via ester bond, resulting in total eleven multifunctional Pt(IV) complexes. The complexes could target genomic DNA and disrupt the signaling transduction from RAS protein to CRAF so that block the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. Experiments in vitro indicated that all of the Pt(IV) complexes showed potent anti-tumor activity with IC50 values ranged from 8 nM to 22.55 μM, which were significantly improved as compared with cisplatin (CDDP) whose IC50 values ranged from 5.45 μM to 9.05 μM. Among them, 26 exerted the best anti-tumor activity in vitro, which not only exhibited excellent cytotoxicity against normal tumor cells, but also against CDDP-resistance cell lines (e.g. A549/CDDP and SKOV-3/CDDP). Importantly, 26 only showed little effect on normal cell lines such as HUEVC and LO2. Besides, the following biological mechanisms studies demonstrated that 26 could efficiently enter. A549 cells, significantly arrest cell cycle at G2/M phase, disrupt the signaling pathway and trigger endogenous caspase apoptosis pathway. Furthermore, results of a xenograft subcutaneous model of A549 tumor showed that 26 could effectively decrease tumor growth rates without causing loss of bodyweight.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Anti-neoplastic drug cisplatin is prescribed widely for treatment of a variety of malignancies. Its use has been restricted lately due to severe renal toxicity. The purpose of current study was to investigate the effect of pitavastatin (a hypolipidaemic drug) in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury in rats. METHOD Male Wistar rats (150-200 g) were treated with different doses of pitavastatin (0.16, 0.32 and 0.64 mg/kg per day p.o.; 10 days). On 7th day of the study, rats were administered cisplatin (8 mg/kg i.p.). Rats were euthanized (11th day), and blood and tissues were processed to evaluate biochemical, histopathological and ultrastructural parameters along with the analysis of immunohistochemistry and DNA-fragmentation studies. Protein expressions were analysed to demonstrate the underlying molecular mechanisms. KEY FINDINGS In the study group with cisplatin insult, KFT parameters were found to be elevated, concentration of apoptotic markers was found to be increased, histopathological and ultramicroscopical architecture was found to be distorted and the expression of MAPK proteins was also found to be elevated as compared to the normal group rats. Pitavastatin treatment alleviated all these anomalies. CONCLUSION Cisplatin-induced acute renal injury was improved on administration of pitavastatin via inhibition of MAPK and apoptotic pathway.

Abstract
Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) has an antioxidant effect by activating the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related transcription factor 2 (Nrf2). Cisplatin (CIS) has nephrotoxicity as a frequently associated side effect that is mainly mediated by oxidative stress. In this study, we investigated whether the DMF-mediated antioxidative mechanism activated by Nrf2 can ameliorate CIS-induced renal tubulointerstitial lesions in rats. In Experiments 1 and 2, 25 five-week-old male Wistar rats were divided into five groups: control, CIS, and 3 CIS+DMF groups (300, 1,500, and 7,500 ppm in Experiment 1; 2,000, 4,000, and 6,000 ppm in Experiment 2). Rats were fed their respective DMF-containing diet for 5 weeks. CIS was injected 1 week after starting DMF administration, and the same volume of saline was injected into the control group. CIS-induced severe tubular injury, such as necrosis and degeneration in the outer segment of the outer medulla, was inhibited in the 7,500 ppm DMF group and ameliorated in all DMF groups in Experiment 2. Increased interstitial mononuclear cell infiltration and increased Sirius red-positive areas were also observed in CIS-administered groups, and these increases tended to be dose-dependently inhibited by DMF co-administration in Experiments 1 and 2. The numbers of α-smooth muscle actin (SMA)-positive myofibroblasts, CD68-positive macrophages, and CD3-positive lymphocytes observed in the peritubular area also increased with CIS administration, and these increases were dose-dependently inhibited by DMF co-administration. Moreover, renal cortical mRNA expression of Nrf2-related genes such as NQO1 increased in DMF groups. This investigation showed that DMF ameliorates CIS-induced renal tubular injury via NQO1-mediated antioxidant mechanisms and reduces the consequent tubulointerstitial fibrosis.

The Investigation of the Antitumor Agent Toxicity and Capsaicin Effect on the Electron Transport Chain Enzymes, Catalase Activities and Lipid Peroxidation Levels in Lung, Heart and Brain Tissues of Rats. Molecules 2018; 23:E3267. [PMID: 30544766 PMCID: PMC6320812 DOI: 10.3390/molecules23123267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2018] [Revised: 11/12/2018] [Accepted: 11/19/2018] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Cisplatin is one of the most active cytotoxic agents in cancer treatment. To clarify the interaction with mitochondria, we hypothesize that the activities of mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) enzymes succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and cytochrome c oxidase (COX), nucleotide levels, as well as levels of catalase (CAT) enzyme and membrane lipid peroxidation (LPO) can be affected by cisplatin. There was a significant decrease of both SDH and COX activities in the lung, heart, and brain tissues at the 1st day after cisplatin exposure, and the observed decreased levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) in comparison with the control could be because of cisplatin-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. The investigations suggested that cisplatin inhibits SDH, COX, and ATP synthase. The higher LPO level in the studied tissues after 1 and 4 days post-exposure to cisplatin compared to control can be inferred to be a result of elevated electron leakage from the ETC, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) can lead to wide-ranging tissue damage such as membrane lipid damage. Consequently, it was observed that capsaicin may have a possible protective effect on ETC impairment caused by cisplatin. The activities of SDH and COX were higher in heart and brain exposed to cisplatin + capsaicin compared to cisplatin groups, while LPO levels were lower. The investigated results in the cisplatin + capsaicin groups suggested that the antioxidant capacity of capsaicin scavenges ROS and prevents membrane destruction.

Abstract
Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a maternally inherited mitochondrial disorder characterized by acute bilateral vision loss. The pathophysiology involves reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can be affected by medications. This article reviews the evidence for medications with demonstrated and theoretical effects on mitochondrial function, specifically in relation to increased ROS production. The data reviewed provides guidance when selecting medications for individuals with LHON mutations (carriers) and are susceptible to conversion to affected. However, as with all medications, the proven benefits of these therapies must be weighed against, in some cases, purely theoretical risks for this unique patient population.

Abstract
Redox regulation has been proposed to control various aspects of carcinogenesis, cancer cell growth, metabolism, migration, invasion, metastasis and cancer vascularization. As cancer has many faces, the role of redox control in different cancers and in the numerous cancer-related processes often point in different directions. In this review, we focus on the redox control mechanisms of tumor cell destruction. The review covers the tumor-intrinsic role of oxidants derived from the reduction of oxygen and nitrogen in the control of tumor cell proliferation as well as the roles of oxidants and antioxidant systems in cancer cell death caused by traditional anticancer weapons (chemotherapeutic agents, radiotherapy, photodynamic therapy). Emphasis is also put on the role of oxidants and redox status in the outcome following interactions between cancer cells, cytotoxic lymphocytes and tumor infiltrating macrophages.

Abstract
Proteins are constantly challenged by environmental stress conditions that threaten their structure and function. Especially problematic are oxidative, acid, and severe heat stress which induce very rapid and widespread protein unfolding and generate conditions that make canonical chaperones and/or transcriptional responses inadequate to protect the proteome. We review here recent advances in identifying and characterizing stress-activated chaperones which are inactive under non-stress conditions but become potent chaperones under specific protein-unfolding stress conditions. We discuss the post-translational mechanisms by which these chaperones sense stress, and consider the role that intrinsic disorder plays in their regulation and function. We examine their physiological roles under both non-stress and stress conditions, their integration into the cellular proteostasis network, and their potential as novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between the CYP450 enzyme family and cisplatin toxicity. METHODS This article examined a collection of studies suggesting that CYP450 enzymes may influence cisplatin toxicity. We performed a narrative mini-review. RESULTS The studies review showed that CYP450 enzymes have an important role in drug-induced hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity, mainly CYP2E1 and CYP4A11. The studies also suggested that the cisplatin and CYP2E1 interaction leads to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and other oxidants resulting in renal injury; and that ROS generated by both the use of cisplatin and by the CYP2E1 increases tissue damage, induces apoptosis, and causes liver failure. CONCLUSIONS We observed that there is an important relationship between CYP450 and cisplatin, involving increased toxicity. However, the possible mechanisms described for the involvement of CYP450 enzymes in nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity induced by cisplatin need to be confirmed by further studies. Therefore, there is a need for a deeper investigation focusing on cisplatin toxicity mediated by CYP450 enzymes, which would undoubtedly contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms that have been implicated so far.

Abstract
The role and reliable quantification of intracellular hydrogen peroxide during cancer therapy constitutes an unexplored and fascinating application. In this work, we report the fabrication of vertically aligned copper nanowires (v-CuNWs) using electrosynthesis on templates, and their application as a cut-and-paste exclusive and flexible electrochemical transducer. This easily adaptable electrodic platform is demonstrated for a fast, simple and free-enzyme selective quantification of intracellular hydrogen peroxide in Cisplatin-treated human renal HK-2 cells. The v-CuNWs sensor was compared with an HRP-enzyme-based biosensor showing excellent correlation and indicates the good selectivity and analytical performance of the v-CuNWs. This sensing approach opens novel avenues for monitoring cell death processes and shows the potential of H2O2 as a cellular damage biomarker, with a clear potency for further developments for in vitro diagnosis and its implication in cancer therapy.

Abstract
The literature on the anti-neoplastic effects of Pt drugs provides substantial evidence that free radical may be involved in the formation of Pt-DNA adducts and other cytotoxic effects. The conditions specific to cancerous tumours are more conducive to free radical mechanisms than the commonly accepted hydrolysis nucleophilic-electrophilic mechanism of Pt-DNA adduct formation. Molecular orbital studies of the adiabatic attachment of hydrated electrons to Pt drugs reveal that there is a significant lengthening of the Pt-X bond (where X is Cl, O in cisplatin, carboplatin and some pyrophosphate-Pt drugs but not oxaliplatin) in the anion radical species. This observation is consistent with a dissociative electron transfer (DET) mechanism for the formation of Pt-DNA adducts. A DET reaction mechanism is proposed for the reaction of Pt drugs with guanine which involves a quasi-inner sphere 2 electron transfer process involving a transient intermediate 5 co-ordinated activated anion radical species {R2Pt---Cl(G)(Cl)•}*(-) (where R is an ammine group, and G is guanine) and the complex has an elongated Pt---Cl (or Pt---O) bond. A DET mechanism is also proposed when Pt drugs are activated by reaction with free radicals such as HO•, CO3•(-), O2•(-) but do not react with DNA bases to form adducts, but form Pt-protein adducts with proteins such ezrin, FAS, DR5, TNFR1 etc. The DET mechanism may not occur with oxaliplatin.

Abstract
Exposure to environmental pollutants and drugs can result in pathophysiological situations in the body. Research in this area is essential as the knowledge on cellular survival and death would help in designing effective therapeutic strategies that are needed for the maintenance of the normal physiological functions of the body. In this regard, naturally occurring bio-molecules can be considered as potential therapeutic targets as they are normally available in commonly consumed foodstuffs and are thought to have minimum side effects. This review article describes the detailed mechanisms of oxidative stress-mediated organ pathophysiology and the ultimate fate of the cells either to survive or to undergo necrotic or apoptotic death. The mechanisms underlying the beneficial role of a number of naturally occurring bioactive molecules in oxidative stress-mediated organ pathophysiology have also been included in the review. The review provides useful information about the recent progress in understanding the mechanism(s) of various types of organ pathophysiology, the complex cross-talk between these pathways, as well as their modulation in stressed conditions. Additionally, it suggests possible therapeutic applications of a number of naturally occurring bioactive molecules in conditions involving oxidative stress.

Abstract
Cisplatin (CDDP) and mitomycin C (MMC), two alkylating agents used against various solid tumours, are a common source of acute kidney injury. Thus, strategies for minimizing CDDP and MMC toxicity are of a clinical interest. In this study, we aimed to investigate the protective role of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) against oxidative stress and genotoxicity induced by CDDP and MMC in cultured Vero cells. Three types of treatments were performed: (i) cells were treated with rhEPO 24 h before exposure to CDDP/MMC (pre-treatment), (ii) cells were treated with rhEPO and CDDP/MMC simultaneously (co-treatment), (iii) cells were treated with rhEPO 24 h after exposure to CDDP/MMC (post-treatment). Our results showed that rhEPO decreased the reactive oxygen species levels, the malondialdehyde levels and ameliorated glutathione (reduced and oxidized glutathione) modulation induced by CDDP and MMC in cultured Vero cells. Furthermore, rhEPO administration prevented alkylating agents-induced DNA damage accessed by comet test. Altogether, our results suggested a protective role of rhEPO, against CDDP- and MMC-induced oxidative stress and genotoxicity, especially in pre-treatment condition.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a byproduct of normal metabolism and have roles in cell signaling and homeostasis. Species include oxygen radicals and reactive nonradicals. Mechanisms exist that regulate cellular levels of ROS, as their reactive nature may otherwise cause damage to key cellular components including DNA, protein, and lipid. When the cellular antioxidant capacity is exceeded, oxidative stress can result. Pleiotropic deleterious effects of oxidative stress are observed in numerous disease states and are also implicated in a variety of drug-induced toxicities. In this paper, we examine the nature of ROS-induced damage on key cellular targets of oxidative stress. We also review evidence implicating ROS in clinically relevant, drug-related side effects including doxorubicin-induced cardiac damage, azidothymidine-induced myopathy, and cisplatin-induced ototoxicity.

Abstract
Apoptosis is an important physiological process. Normally, a healthy cell maintains a delicate balance between pro- and anti-apoptotic factors, allowing it to live and proliferate. It is thus not surprising that disturbance of this delicate balance may result in disease. It is a well known fact that apoptosis also contributes to several acquired forms of hearing impairment. Noise-induced hearing loss is the result of prolonged exposure to excessive noise, triggering apoptosis in terminally differentiated sensory hair cells. Moreover, hearing loss caused by the use of therapeutic drugs such as aminoglycoside antibiotics and cisplatin potentially may result in the activation of apoptosis in sensory hair cells leading to hearing loss due to the "ototoxicity" of the drugs. Finally, apoptosis is a key contributor to the development of presbycusis, age-related hearing loss. Recently, several mutations in apoptosis genes were identified as the cause of monogenic hearing impairment. These genes are TJP2, DFNA5 and MSRB3. This implies that apoptosis not only contributes to the pathology of acquired forms of hearing impairment, but also to genetic hearing impairment as well. We believe that these genes constitute a new functional class within the hearing loss field. Here, the contribution of apoptosis in the pathology of both acquired and genetic hearing impairment is reviewed.

Abstract
cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (cisplatin) is an important chemotherapeutic agent useful in the treatment of several cancers; however, it has several side effects such as nephrotoxicity. The role of the oxidative and nitrosative stress in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity is additionally supported by the protective effect of several free radical scavengers and antioxidants. Furthermore, in in vitro experiments, antioxidants or reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavengers have a cytoprotective effect on cells exposed to cisplatin. Recently, the participation of nitrosative stress has been more explored in cisplatin-induced renal damage. The use of a water-soluble Fe(III) porphyrin complex able to metabolize peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) has demonstrated that this anion contributes to both in vivo and in vitro cisplatin-induced toxicity. ONOO(-) is produced when nitric oxide (NO*) reacts with superoxide anion (O(2)(*-)); currently, there are evidences suggesting alterations in NO* production after cisplatin treatment and the evidence appear to NO* has a toxic effect. This article goes through current evidence of the mechanism by more than a few compounds have beneficial effects on cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, contribute to understanding the role of oxidative and nitrosative stress and suggest several points as part of the mechanism of cisplatin toxicity.

Abstract
FK506 (tacrolimus) is a widely used immunosuppressant first employed in the management of rejection in organ transplantation, but now used for autoimmune disease. However, the nephrotoxicity induced by FK506 remains a serious clinical problem. We previously demonstrated that FK506 caused a significant increase in apoptosis of LLC-PK1 cells, a porcine proximal tubule cell line, but the addition of green tea extract and its polyphenolic components suppressed the cell death. Here, we examined the synergistic effect of tea polyphenols on the protection of FK506-induced cell death. The combined treatment with 5 microM (-)-epigallocatechin-gallate (EGCG) and 5 microM of (+)-catechin (C), (-)-epicatechin (EC), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC) or (-)-epicatechin-gallate (ECG) reduced FK506-induced cytotoxicity in LLC-PK1. Similarly, the combined treatment with 5 microM EGC and 5 microM of C, EC, EGCG or ECG also reduced the cytotoxicity. These results showed that the co-treatments with EGCG and EGC, EGCG or ECG, and EGC and ECG have stronger synergistic effects on the protection of FK506-induced cell death. Furthermore, the combined treatment of EGCG (5 microM) and EGC (5 microM) showed a significant time-dependent suppression of the increased intracellular ROS levels 15 min after the addition of FK506, as well as on caspase activation. The results of these synergistic effects of the constituents of green tea extract suggest that its protective effects may reside in more than just one of its constituent.

Abstract
Cisplatin is frequently used to treat solid tumors; however, nephrotoxicity due to its reactive oxygen species-mediated effect limits its use. We tested the ability of cationized catalase, a catalase derivative, to inhibit nephrotoxicity in cisplatin-treated mice. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that the catalase derivative concentrated in the kidney more efficiently than native catalase. Repeated intravenous doses of cationized catalase significantly decreased cisplatin-induced changes in serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, nitrite/nitrate levels, lactic dehydrogenase activity, and renal total glutathione and malondialdehyde contents. In addition, cationized catalase effectively blunted cisplatin-induced proximal tubule necrosis but had no significant effect on the cisplatin-induced inhibition of subcutaneous tumor growth. Repeated doses of catalase, especially cationized catalase, significantly increased the survival of cisplatin-treated tumor-bearing mice preventing cisplatin-induced acute death. Our studies suggest that catalase and its derivatives inhibit cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, thus improving the efficiency of cisplatin to treat solid tumors.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent used in the treatment of several cancer tumors; however, nephrotoxicity has restricted its use. Reactive oxygen species and peroxynitrite, which is formed by the reaction between superoxide anion and nitric oxide (NO*), are implicated in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. In contrast, both toxic and beneficial effects of NO* have been suggested in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. Therefore, nowadays the role of NO* in this experimental model remains controversial. The aim of the present work was to elucidate the role of NO* in cisplatin-induced renal damage using N-[3-(aminomethyl)benzyl]acetamidine (1400W), a selective and irreversible inhibitor of iNOS. The mRNA levels of iNOS were increased in cisplatin-treated rats. The administration of 1400W reduced the cisplatin induced histological damage, renal dysfunction (increase in proteinuria and kidney injury molecule expression and decrease in creatinine clearance), tubulointerstitial infiltration, oxidative stress (increase in renal malondialdehyde and inmmunostaining for 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal) and nitrosative stress (immunostaining for 3-nitrotyrosine). In addition, the administration of 1400W was unable to modify systolic blood pressure in control rats. Our data demonstrate that selective iNOS inhibition reduces the cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity and nitrosative stress which strongly suggest that in this experimental model (1) the NO* production is toxic and (2) iNOS is the main source of NO*.

Abstract
The anti-cancer drug cisplatin induces apoptosis by damaging DNA. Since a stilbene-derivative blocker of Cl-/HCO3- exchangers and Cl- channels, SITS, is known to induce cisplatin resistance in a manner independent of intracellular pH and extracellular HCO3-, we investigated the relation between cisplatin-induced apoptosis and Cl- channel activity in human adenocarcinoma KB cells. A stilbene derivative, DIDS, reduced cisplatin-induced caspase-3 activation and cell death, which were detected over 18 h after treatment with cisplatin. DIDS was also found to reduce sensitivity of KB cells to 5-day exposure to cisplatin. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings showed that KB cells functionally express volume-sensitive outwardly rectifying (VSOR) Cl- channels which are activated by osmotic cell swelling and sensitive to DIDS. Pretreatment of the cells with cisplatin for 12 h augmented the magnitude of VSOR Cl- current. Thus, it is concluded that cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity in KB cells is associated with augmented activity of a DIDS-sensitive VSOR Cl- channel and that blockade of this channel is, at least in part, responsible for cisplatin resistance induced by a stilbene derivative.

Abstract
We investigated the involvement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and intracellular calcium in nephrotoxicity related to an antitumor agent, cisplatin. In this study, we employed cultured renal epithelial cells (LLC-PK1). Cisplatin at 500 microM significantly increased the production of ROS 5 h and caused cell injury. This agent significantly increased the intracellular calcium level ([Ca2+]i) in a dose-dependent manner 1 h or more after exposure. DPPD (N,N'-diphenyl-p-phenylenediamine), an antioxidant, inhibited a cisplatin-related increase in active oxygen production and cell injury but did not inhibit an early increase in the [Ca2+]i level. An intracellular calcium-chelating compound BAPTA-AM (1,2-bis(O-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid tetra(acetoxymethyl) ester) inhibited an increase in ROS production and cell injury induced by cisplatin. Furthermore, BAPTA-AM suppressed the rise of [Ca2+]i level in 1 h after exposure; however, an extracellular calcium chelator EGTA and a calcium antagonist nicardipine did not inhibit the rise in [Ca2+]i level in the early phase. An NADPH oxidase inhibitor inhibited a cisplatin-related increase in ROS production and cell disorder. These results suggest that cisplatin-related calcium release from the site of intracellular calcium storage in the early phase causes oxidative stress in renal tubular epithelial cells. Cisplatin may increase the intracellular production of ROS via NADPH oxidase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Establishment of non-invasive urinary biomarkers for the prediction of acute renal failure (ARF) is important. We evaluated whether urinary oxidative stress markers reflect intrarenal oxidative stress in cisplatin (CDDP)-induced ARF, and whether these markers can be used for the prediction of future ARF. METHODS Urinary malondialdehyde (MDA) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were measured up to day 14 post-CDDP (6 mg/kg) injection in rats. MDA and 8-OHdG expressions were examined in kidneys. RESULTS CDDP induced an increase in serum creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and tubular damage at day 5, increased urinary MDA excretion and MDA expression in kidneys at day 1 (but returned to basal values by day 3), increased urinary excretion of 8-OHdG at day 5 till day 14 (though the number of 8-OHdG-positive tubular cells increased at day 5 and then gradually decreased). Urinary MDA levels at day 1 correlated significantly with Scr (rho = 0.721, P < 0.01) and tubular damage score (rho = 0.840, P < 0.01) at day 5. CONCLUSION Our findings demonstrated divergent changes of urinary oxidative stress markers in CDDP-induced ARF, and suggested that urinary MDA may be a useful marker for the prediction of the development of CDDP-induced ARF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Acute renal failure is a dose-limiting factor of cisplatin chemotherapy. Here, we show the protective effect of ozone oxidative preconditioning against cisplatin-induced renal dysfunction in rats. Ozone oxidative preconditioning is a prophylactic approach, which favors the antioxidant-pro-oxidant balance for preservation of the cell redox state by increasing antioxidant endogenous systems in various in vivo and in vitro experimental models. AIMS: To analyze the protective role of ozone oxidative preconditioning against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were pretreated with 15 intrarectal applications of ozone/oxygen mixture at 0.36, 0.72, 1.1, 1.8 and 2.5 mg/kg before cisplatin intraperitoneal injection (6 mg/kg). Serum and kidneys were extracted and analyzed 5 days after cisplatin treatment for determinations of the renal content of glutathione, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances, renal concentration and enzymatic activities of catalase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase. RESULTS: Ozone pretreatment prevented the increase in serum creatinine levels, the glutathione depletion and the inhibition of superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities induced by cisplatin in the rat kidney. Also, the renal content of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances was decreased by ozone therapy. These protective effects of ozone were dose dependent. CONCLUSIONS: Intrarectal ozone therapy prevented effectively the renal antioxidant unbalance induced by cisplatin treatment.

Abstract
Time-dependent changes in polyamine metabolism and c-Myc expression are reported in kidney of mice treated with cisplatin, a widely used anticancer drug. We show that cisplatin significantly induces the expression of two enzymes critical to proper homeostasis of cellular polyamines, ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase (SSAT). We also document the cross-talk between signalling pathway(s) induced by cisplatin injury to renal tubules and the testosterone/androgen receptor pathway. Their interaction results in a decrease in testosterone-induced ODC activity and ODC mRNA level, and in differential modulation of SSAT expression. Moreover, cisplatin and antifolate CB 3717, another nephrotoxic drug examined, severalfold up-regulate expression of c-Myc mRNA, albeit with different kinetics. However, cisplatin, contrary to CB 3717, does not induce renal hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/c-Met expression being without effect on HGF mRNA level and significantly down-regulating c-Met transmembrane receptor message. In conclusion, these in vivo studies document significant cisplatin-induced modulation of polyamine biosynthesis/degradation and up-regulation of c-Myc expression, and suggest that c-Myc transcription factor is involved in the induction of ODC in kidney injured with antifolate, but not with cisplatin.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been suggested as important mediators of cisplatin-induced acute renal failure in vivo. However, our previous studies have shown that cisplatin-induced cell death in vitro could not be prevented by scavengers of hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical in rabbit renal cortical slices. This discrepancy may be attributed to differential roles of ROS in necrotic and apoptotic cell death. We therefore examined, in this study, the roles of ROS in necrosis and apoptosis induced by cisplatin in primary cultured rabbit proximal tubule. Cisplatin induced necrosis at high concentrations over a few hours and apoptosis at much lower concentrations over longer periods. Necrosis induced by high concentration of cisplatin was prevented by a cell-permeable superoxide scavenger (tiron), hydrogen peroxide scavengers (catalase and pyruvate), and antioxidants (Trolox and deferoxamine), whereas hydroxyl radical scavengers (dimethythiourea and thiourea) did not affect the cisplatin-induced necrosis. However, apoptosis induced by lower concentration of cisplatin was partially prevented by tiron and hydroxyl radical scavengers but not by hydrogen peroxide scavengers and antioxidants. Cisplatin-induced apoptosis was mediated by the signaling pathway that is associated with cytochrome c release from mitochondria and caspase-3 activation. These effects were prevented by tiron and dimethylthiourea but not by catalase. Dimethylthiourea produced a significant protection against cisplatin-induced acute renal failure, and the effect was associated with an inhibition of apoptosis. These results suggest that hydrogen peroxide is involved in the cisplatin-induced necrosis, whereas hydroxyl radical is responsible for the cisplatin-induced apoptosis. The protective effects of hydroxyl radical scavengers are associated with an inhibition of cytochrome c release and caspase activation.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a potent chemotherapeutic agent that is used to treat many human malignancies. Unfortunately, in addition to side effects such as ototoxicity, anaphylaxis, and bone marrow suppression, a significant percentage of patients receiving cisplatin develop severe nephrotoxicity. Mitochondrial dysfunction that is mediated via the generation of reactive oxygen species has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cisplatin-induced renal injury. To address the mechanism, it was hypothesized that overexpression of antioxidant enzymes, such as mitochondria-localized manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) or mitochondria-targeted catalase (mito-Cat), would be cytoprotective in cisplatin-induced cell injury. To this end, human MnSOD or a mito-Cat vector were stably transfected into human embryonic kidney 293 cells. Cells that overexpressed MnSOD exhibited significantly less cell rounding and detachment compared with both mito-Cat and vector controls after exposure to 20 microM cisplatin. Cell injury as assessed by DNA fragmentation and annexin V binding assays was significantly decreased in the cells that overexpressed MnSOD compared with vector alone and mito-Cat. In addition, elevated levels of MnSOD were strongly associated with increased clonogenic potential after cisplatin challenge. Thus, overexpression of MnSOD, and not catalase, protects against cisplatin-induced renal epithelial cell injury. These results demonstrate the importance of reactive oxygen species in the mechanism that underlies cisplatin-induced renal injury and specifically implicate the superoxide radical, and not hydrogen peroxide, as the mediator.

Abstract
Since there are indications that iron influences cisplatin nephrotoxicity, we studied the role of iron in cisplatin ototoxicity in an in vitro model of the neurosensory epithelium of the guinea pig cochlea. Viability tests showed that Deiters and Hensen cells were not damaged and inner hair cells were only slightly damaged by cisplatin (50 microM). The outer hair cells were most sensitive to cisplatin toxicity. The iron chelator 2,2'-dipyridyl provided partial protection against cisplatin-induced cell death. In addition, we studied the influence of the iron chelators 2,2'-dipyridyl and deferoxamine on the chelatable iron pool in the various cells of the neurosensory epithelium using the fluorescent iron indicator Phen Green SK. Both chelators decreased the chelatable iron accessible to Phen Green SK, although the effect of deferoxamine was weaker because it entered the cells more slowly. The cellular concentration of the chelatable iron was measured using Phen Green SK and quantitative laser scanning microscopy. The concentration of chelatable iron in the inner ear cells ranged from 1.3 +/- 0.4 microM iron in inner hair cells to 3.7 +/- 1.7 microM iron in Hensen cells and did not correlate with the various cell types' susceptibility to cisplatin. Furthermore, cisplatin did not raise the intracellular chelatable iron concentration but enhanced the production of superoxide anions inside the neurosensory epithelium, especially inside the hair cells, as detected by the nitrotetrazolium blue reduction assay. Our conclusion is that cisplatin ototoxicity is partially mediated by an iron-dependent pathway and is associated with an enhanced formation of superoxide anions.

Abstract
A major obstacle to successful cancer chemotherapy is the development of multidrug resistance (MDR). The previous study revealed that a doxorubicin-resistant AML subline (AML-2/DX100) overexpressed an MDR-associated protein (MRP) but not P-glycoprotein. The AML-2/DX100 also showed various levels of resistance to daunorubicin and vincristine but was paradoxically sensitive to hydrogen peroxide (5-fold), t-butyl hydroperoxide (3-fold), and paraquat (2-fold) when compared to the drug-sensitive parental AML-2 cells (AML-2/WT). We compared the activities of antioxidant enzymes to detoxify reactive oxygen species (ROS), including superoxide dismutases, glutathione S-transferase, catalase, glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in both AML-2/WT and AML-2/DX100. Interestingly, of these antioxidant enzymes, catalase activity of AML-2/DX100 decreased significantly to about one-third that of AML-2/WT (P < 0.000005). The decreased activity of catalase was due to reduced expression of the catalase gene; confirmed by Western blot and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analyses. The decreased activity of catalase was maintained even in the absence of doxorubicin for 3 months as well as by the treatment of probenecid, an MRP inhibitor. In addition, there was no difference in catalase activity between HL-60 and another MRP-overexpressing subline HL-60/Adr. Taken together, the paradoxical increase in the sensitivity of an MRP-overexpressing AML-2/DX100 in response to peroxides and paraquat is due to the down-regulation of catalase gene expression, which totally independent of overexpression of MRP. It is therefore possible that decreased catalase activity could be exploited as an Achilles' heel in resistant cells such as this.

Abstract
Clinical observations suggest that anticancer drugs could contribute to the thrombotic complications of malignancy in treated patients. Thrombotic microangiopathy, myocardial infarction, and cerebrovascular thrombotic events have been reported for cisplatin, a drug widely used in the treatment of many solid tumours. The aim of this study is to explore in vitro cisplatin effect on human platelet reactivity in order to define the potentially active role of platelets in the pathogenesis of cisplatin-induced thrombotic complications. Our results demonstrate that cisplatin increases human platelet reactivity (onset of platelet aggregation wave and thromboxane production) to non-aggregating concentrations of the agonists involving arachidonic acid metabolism. Direct or indirect activation of platelet phospholipase A(2) appears to be implicated. This finding contributes to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of thrombotic complications occurring during cisplatin-based chemotherapy.
