Abstract
Nuclear factor kappa beta (NF-κB) plays a pivotal role in breast cancer, particularly triple-negative breast cancer, by promoting inflammation, proliferation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, metastasis, and drug resistance. Upregulation of NF-κB boosts vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression, assisting angiogenesis. The Ru(II) complexes of methyl- and dimethylpyrazolyl-benzimidazole N,N donors inhibit phosphorylation of ser536 in p65 and translocation of the NF-κB heterodimer (p50/p65) to the nucleus, disabling transcription to upregulate inflammatory signaling. The methyl- and dimethylpyrazolyl-benzimidazole inhibit VEGFR2 phosphorylation at Y1175, disrupting downstream signaling through PLC-γ and ERK1/2, ultimately suppressing Ca(II)-signaling. Partial release of the antiangiogenic ligand in a reactive oxygen species-rich environment is possible as per our observation to inhibit both NF-κB and VEGFR2 by the complexes. The complexes are nontoxic to zebrafish embryos up to 50 μM, but the ligands show strong in vivo antiangiogenic activity at 3 μM during embryonic growth in Tg(fli1:GFP) zebrafish but no visible effect on the adult phase.

Abstract
The survival rates of many cancers have significantly improved due to recent advancements in cancer screening and therapeutics. Although better cancer outcomes are encouraging, additional health challenges have surfaced, the utmost of which is the burden imposed by various cardiovascular and renal toxicities of anticancer therapies. To improve the overall outcome of patients with cancer, it is essential to understand and manage these treatment-related adverse effects. The cardiovascular side effects of antineoplastic therapies are well-known and include left ventricular dysfunction, heart failure, myocardial ischaemia, QT prolongation, arrhythmia and hypertension. Among these, hypertension is the most common complication, prevalent in about 40% of all cancer patients, yet frequently overlooked and undertreated. This review explores the intricate connection between cancer and hypertension and provides distinct approaches to diagnosing, monitoring and managing hypertension in patients with cancer. We also outline the challenges and considerations that are relevant to the care of patients receiving anticancer drugs with prohypertensive potential.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteosarcoma is the most malignant and common primary bone tumor with a high rate of recurrence that mainly occurs in children and young adults. Therefore, it is vital to facilitate the development of novel effective therapeutic means and improve the overall prognosis of osteosarcoma patients via a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of chemoresistance in osteosarcoma progression. METHODS In this research, the relationship between ITGB3 and the clinical characteristics of patients was detected through analysis of publicly available clinical datasets. The expression of ITGB3 was analysis in collected human osteosarcoma tissues. In addition, the potential functions of ITGB3 in the cisplatin resistance of osteosarcoma cells were investigated in vitro and in tumor xenotransplantation. Finally, the molecular mechanism of ITGB3 in the progression and recurrence of osteosarcoma were explored via transcriptome analysis. RESULTS ITGB3 was identified as a potential regulator of tumorigenicity and cisplatin resistance in relapsed osteosarcoma. Furthermore, the decreased osteosarcoma cell proliferation and migration ability in ITGB3 knockout osteosarcoma cells were related to increased apoptosis and slowing cell cycle progression. In addition, ITGB3 had a positive correlation with cisplatin resistance in cells and tumor xenografts in mice. Accordingly, ITGB3 performed the functions of proliferation and cisplatin resistance in osteosarcoma through the MAPK and VEGF signaling pathways. CONCLUSION Our results will contribute to a better understanding of the function and mechanism of ITGB3 in osteosarcoma cisplatin resistance and provide a novel therapeutic target to decrease cisplatin resistance and tumor recurrence in osteosarcoma patients.

Abstract
AIM The present study investigated the potential protective effect of a selective Cannabinoid-2 (CB2) receptor agonist, 1-phenylisatin, in acute nephrotoxicity induced by cisplatin. MATERIALS AND METHODS Animals were arranged into 5 groups. Group I; normal saline, group II; 1-phenylisatin for 7 days, group III: received a single injection of cisplatin (20 mg/kg, i.p.) on day 5, group IV: 1-phenylisatin for 7 days and cisplatin on day 5 and group V: AM630, CB2 antagonist, 15 min before 1-phenylisatin for 7 days and a single injection of cisplatin on day 5. Mice were sacrificed 72 h after cisplatin injection. Kidneys were isolated for histopathological and biochemical analyses. Nephrotoxicity parameters including serum creatinine and urea were assessed as well as histopathological examination was done. Also, Oxidative stress markers; MDA and GSH, inflammatory markers; TNF-α, NF-κB (p65), MCP-1, MIP-2, and ICAM-1, along with apoptotic markers, Bax, Bcl2, and caspase-3 were studied. Further, CB2 receptor expression was investigated. KEY FINDINGS Cisplatin injection increased serum creatinine and urea levels, and increased lipid peroxidation, decreased glutathione level and increased the renal expression of pro-inflammatory markers, TNF-α, NF-κB, MCP-1, MIP-2, and ICAM-1, along with increased apoptotic markers and significantly reduced the expression of the anti-apoptotic Bcl2. Pretreatment with 1-phenylisatin significantly counteracted these effects. The CB2 receptor antagonist; AM630, increased the renal expression of caspase-3 and Bax whereas Bcl2 expression decreased. SIGNIFICANCE 1-Phenylisatin protected against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity owing to its anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. These actions were mostly mediated through CB2 receptor.

Abstract
Chemotherapy causes sensory disturbances in cancer patients that results in neuropathies and pain. As cancer survivorships has dramatically increased over the past 10 years, pain management of these patients is becoming clinically more important. Current analgesic strategies are mainly ineffective and long-term use is associated with severe side effects. The issue being that common analgesic strategies are based on ubiquitous pain mediator pathways, so when applied to clinically diverse neuropathic pain and neurological conditions, are unsuccessful. This is principally due to the lack of understanding of the driving forces that lead to chemotherapy induced neuropathies. It is well documented that chemotherapy causes sensory neurodegeneration through axonal atrophy and intraepidermal fibre degeneration causing alterations in pain perception. Despite the neuropathological alterations associated with chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain being extensively researched, underlying causes remain elusive. Resent evidence from patient and rodent studies have indicated a prominent inflammatory cell component in the peripheral sensory nervous system in effected areas post chemotherapeutic treatment. This is accompanied by modulation of auxiliary cells of the dorsal root ganglia sensory neurons such as activation of satellite glia and capillary dysfunction. The presence of a neuroinflammatory component was supported by transcriptomic analysis of dorsal root ganglia taken from mice treated with common chemotherapy agents. With key inflammatory mediators identified, having potent immunoregulatory effects that directly influences nociception. We aim to evaluate the current understanding of these immune-neuronal interactions across different cancer therapy drug classes. In the belief this may lead to better pain management approaches for cancer survivors.

Abstract
The role of imaging in cancer diagnosis and treatment has evolved at the same rapid pace as cancer management. Over the last twenty years, with the advancement of technology, oncology has become a multidisciplinary field that allows for researchers and clinicians not only to create individualized treatment options for cancer patients, but also to evaluate patients’ response to therapy with increasing precision. Familiarity with these concepts is a requisite for current and future radiologists, as cancer imaging studies represent a significant and growing component of any radiology practice, from tertiary cancer centers to community hospitals. In this review we provide the framework to teach cancer imaging in the era of genomic oncology. After reading this article, readers should be able to illustrate the basics cancer genomics, modern cancer genomics, to summarize the types of systemic oncologic therapies available, their patterns of response and their adverse events, to discuss the role of imaging in oncologic clinical trials and the role of tumor response criteria and to display the future directions of oncologic imaging.

Abstract
High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is characterized by a complex and dynamic tumor microenvironment (TME) composed of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), immune cells, endothelial cells, and adipocytes. Although most approved therapies target cancer cells, a growing body of evidence suggests that chemotherapeutic agents have an important role in regulating the biology of the diverse cells that compose the TME. Understanding how non-transformed cells respond and adapt to established therapeutics is necessary to completely comprehend their action and develop novel therapeutics that interrupt undesired tumor-stroma interactions. Here, we review the effects of chemotherapeutic agents on normal cellular components of the host-derived TME focusing on CAFs. We concentrate on therapies used in the treatment of HGSOC and synthesize findings from studies focusing on other cancer types and benign tissues. Agents such as platinum derivatives, taxanes, and PARP inhibitors broadly affect the TME and promote or inhibit the pro-tumorigenic roles of CAFs by modifying the bidirectional cross-talk between tumor and stromal cells in the tumor organ. While most chemotherapy research focuses on cancer cells, these studies emphasize the need to consider all cell types within the tumor organ when evaluating chemotherapeutics.

Abstract
The development of a wide range of novel antineoplastic therapies has improved the prognosis for patients with a wide range of malignancies, which has increased the number of cancer survivors substantially. Despite the oncological benefit, cancer survivors are exposed to short- and long-term adverse cardiovascular toxicities associated with anticancer therapies. Systemic hypertension, the most common comorbidity among cancer patients, is a major contributor to the increased risk for developing these adverse cardiovascular events. Cancer and hypertension have common risk factors, have overlapping pathophysiological mechanisms and hypertension may also be a risk factor for some tumor types. Many cancer therapies have prohypertensive effects. Although some of the mechanisms by which these antineoplastic agents lead to hypertension have been characterized, further preclinical and clinical studies are required to investigate the exact pathophysiology and the optimal management of hypertension associated with anticancer therapy. In this way, monitoring and management of hypertension before, during, and after cancer treatment can be improved to minimize cardiovascular risks. This is vital to optimize cardiovascular health in patients with cancer and survivors, and to ensure that advances in terms of cancer survivorship do not come at the expense of increased cardiovascular toxicities.

Abstract
Cisplatin upregulate the intercellular adhesion molecule expression on the surface of endothelium, which in turn mediates enhanced infiltration by monocytes or leukocytes, resulting in endothelial dysfunction. Here we examined changes induced by andrographolide, a diterpenoid lactone isolated from Andrographis paniculata on endothelial cell activation and hyperpermeability in cisplatin-stimulated endothelial cells. Cisplatin upregulated endothelial ICAM-1 expression, through an NF-κB dependent mechanism, that also required the enhanced translocation of Protein Kinase C-α (PKC) onto the plasma membrane, phosphorylation of transient receptor potential channel 1 (TRPC), leading to store-operated Ca2+-entry (SOCE), endothelial cell dysfunction and hyperadhesion of U937 monocytes. Pretreatment of endothelial cells with andrographolide prior to stimulation with cisplatin resulted in activation of PI3K/Akt and eNOS, production of nitric oxide (NO) and cGMP, with a consequential lowering of endothelial cell leakiness and improved transendothelial electrical resistance. Andrographolide-induced NO was essential for NF-κB inhibition, lowered ICAM-1 expression as well as prevention of SOCE and reduced the U937 binding to cisplatin-stimulated endothelial cells.

Gemcitabine and Platinum-Based Agents for the Prediction of Cancer-Associated Venous Thromboembolism: Results from the Vienna Cancer and Thrombosis Study. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12092493. [PMID: 32899157 PMCID: PMC7564761 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12092493] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2020] [Revised: 08/28/2020] [Accepted: 09/01/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Certain chemotherapy agents (gemcitabine, platinum-based agents) have been suggested to increase the risk of venous thromboembolism in cancer patients. Our aim was to evaluate, whether treatment with these agents can be used to better predict the risk of cancer-associated venous thromboembolism. Within a prospective observational cohort study, including 1409 patients, we found that treatment with gemcitabine and/or platinum-based agents is only of limited value in predicting the risk of venous thromboembolism beyond known risk factors included in an established risk prediction model (tumor type, blood levels of D-dimer). These findings suggest that a large part of the observed rate of venous thromboembolism in patients treated with these agents might be related to the underlying thrombotic risk rather than the agent itself. Abstract Gemcitabine and platinum-based agents could increase the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with cancer. We evaluated the additive predictive utility of these agents towards cancer-associated VTE beyond a recently developed and externally validated clinical prediction model, which was based on tumor entity and continuous D-dimer levels. Analysis was performed in the derivation cohort of this model, obtained from the Vienna Cancer and Thrombosis Study (CATS), a prospective observational cohort study (n = 1409). Patients were followed for the occurrence of VTE for a maximum of two years. Competing-risk analysis was performed to obtain cumulative incidences and to conduct between-group comparisons of VTE risk. Cumulative two-year incidences of VTE were not elevated with gemcitabine treatment (10.2% vs. 7.5%, p = 0.148), whereas they were higher for platinum-based therapy (11.6% vs. 5.9%, p < 0.001). In a multivariable analysis, adjusting for tumor site category and D-dimer, gemcitabine was not associated with increased risk of VTE (subdistribution hazard ratio (SHR) 0.82, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.53–1.28, p = 0.390), whereas platinum-based therapy predicted for a numerically increased VTE risk (SHR 1.44, 95% CI 0.96–2.17, p = 0.080). Similar results were obtained in a sensitivity analysis (updated cohort, n = 1870). Our findings suggest limited additional value of chemotherapy for the prediction of cancer-associated VTE, beyond a validated clinical prediction model.

Abstract
Treatment of testicular cancer (TC) has an exceptionally high success rate compared to other cancer types; even in case of metastasized disease, 80-90 % of TC patients can be cured. Consequently, attention has been drawn to a potential downside of this treatment success: late adverse treatment effects such as the accelerated development of otherwise age-associated features like cardiovascular disease and second malignancies. Underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Emerging data suggest that cytotoxic treatment induces cellular senescence, resulting in secretion of inflammatory factors contributing to this early ageing phenotype. Molecular and cellular characterization of this early ageing will enhance understanding the pathogenesis of TC treatment-induced morbidity and contribute to better recognition and prevention of late effects. In this review, we describe clinical manifestations of the early ageing phenotype among TC survivors, and subsequently focus on potential underlying mechanisms. We discuss the clinical implications and describe perspectives for future research and intervention strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE. This review describes the influence of histology and metastatic sites on prognosis in male patients with metastatic germ cell tumors (GCTs) and explains the role imaging in assessing therapeutic response, residual disease, recurrence, sand treatment-related toxicities. CONCLUSION. Seminomatous and nonseminomatous GCTs differ in imaging appearance, pattern of spread, and prognosis, and an organ-based approach is helpful in prognostication. Multimodality imaging aids in accurate staging, prognostication, characterization of treatment response, and identification of therapy-related toxicity.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequently encountered in clinical practice, particularly secondarily to cardiovascular surgery and administration of nephrotoxic agents, and is increasingly recognized for initiating a transition to chronic kidney disease. Clarifying the pathogenesis of AKI could facilitate the development of novel preventive strategies, because the occurrence of hospital-acquired AKI is often anticipated. Vasohibin-1 (VASH1) was initially identified as an antiangiogenic factor derived from endothelial cells. VASH1 expression in endothelial cells has subsequently been reported to enhance cellular stress tolerance. Considering the importance of maintaining peritubular capillaries in preventing the progression of AKI, the present study aimed to examine whether VASH1 deletion is involved in the pathogenesis of cisplatin-induced AKI. For this, we injected male C57BL/6J wild-type (WT) and VASH1 heterozygous knockout (VASH1+/-) mice intraperitoneally with either 20 mg/kg cisplatin or vehicle solution. Seventy-two hours after cisplatin injection, increased serum creatinine concentrations and renal tubular injury accompanied by apoptosis and oxidative stress were more prominent in VASH1+/- mice than in WT mice. Cisplatin-induced peritubular capillary loss was also accelerated by VASH1 deficiency. Moreover, the increased expression of ICAM-1 in the peritubular capillaries of cisplatin-treated VASH1+/- mice was associated with a more marked infiltration of macrophages into the kidney. Taken together, VASH1 expression could have protective effects on cisplatin-induced AKI probably by maintaining the number and function of peritubular capillaries.

Abstract
One of the most neglected aspects of chemotherapy are changes, and possible consequences of these changes, that occur in normal somatic cells. In this review, we summarize effects of selected drugs used to treat ovarian cancer (platin derivatives-cisplatin and carboplatin; and taxanes-paclitaxel and docetaxel) on cellular metabolism, acquisition of reactive stroma features, cellular senescence, inflammatory reactions, apoptosis, autophagy, mitophagy, oxidative stress, DNA damage, and angiogenesis in various types of normal cells, including fibroblasts, epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and neurons. The activity of these drugs against the normal cells is presented from a broader perspective of their desirable anti-tumoral effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The early intervention is a rational approach to reduce the cardiovascular disease mortality in cancer patients. Here, we tried to identify potential biomarkers for the endothelial damage caused by cisplatin, a typical chemotherapy compound, and explore its underlying mechanisms. METHODS Microarray dataset GSE62523 were utilized to assess the gene differential expression from human micro-vascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1) treated with cisplatin. Then, the potential key genes were further validated by qRT-PCR and the γH2AX level was evaluated to monitor the DNA damages caused by cisplatin. RESULT For the 'acute-exposure' settings that HMEC-1 were treated with 12.9 μM cisplatin for 6, 24 and 48 h, ATF3, LRRTM2, VCAM1 and PAPPA were identified as potential key genes in endothelial damage, while for the 'chronic-exposure' settings that cells were exposed to 0.52 μM cisplatin twice a week, SULF2, ACTA2 and PRAP1 were identified. In addition, further in vitro validation showed that knockdown of ATF3 attenuated the γH2AX level in cells exposed to cisplatin for 6 or 24 h and knockdown of PRAP1 increased the γH2AX level in cells exposed to cisplatin for 2 days. Notably, ATF3 has the ability to regulate the expression of HIST1H1D, FBXO6, APP, MDM2, STAT1 and TRAF1, while PRAP1 regulates YWHAB, MDM2, ISG15, LYN and CUL1 during cisplatin-induced DNA damage repair process. CONCLUSION ATF3 and PRAP1 play important roles in cisplatin-induced DNA damage repair process. They may serve as potential early surrogate biomarkers of microvascular endothelial damage for cancer patients receiving chemotherapies.

Epigenetic silencing of miR-200b is associated with cisplatin resistance in bladder cancer. Oncotarget 2018; 9:24457-24469.

Abstract
In this study, we identified microRNAs (miRNAs) involved in cisplatin (CDDP) resistance in bladder cancer (BCa). After establishing CDDP-resistant BCa cell lines (T24RC and EJ138RC), TaqMan arrays revealed that members of the miR-200 family (miR-200b, miR-200a and miR-429) were downregulated in T24RC as compared to parental T24 cells. miR-200b was associated with CDDP sensitivity in BCa cells, and its downregulation was associated with CpG island hypermethylation. Pharmacological demethylation using 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine restored miR-200b expression, and the combination of 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine + CDDP strongly inhibited T24RC cell proliferation. Microarray analysis revealed that miR-200b + CDDP induced genes involved in CDDP sensitivity or cytotoxicity, including IGFBP3, ICAM1 and TNFSF10, in the resistant cells. Expression and DNA methylation of miR-200b were inversely associated in primary BCa, and low expression/high methylation was associated with poor overall survival. These results suggest downregulation of miR-200b is associated with CDDP resistance in BCa. Epigenetic silencing of miR-200b may be a marker of CDDP resistance and a useful therapeutic target for overcoming CDDP resistance in BCa.

Esophageal Metal Stents with Concurrent Chemoradiation Therapy for Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer: Safe or Not? Oncologist 2018; 23:1426-1435.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to review the risks and benefits of concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT) with esophageal self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) for the treatment of locally advanced esophageal cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2014 and December 2016, the data from 46 locally advanced esophageal cancer patients who received CCRT at our institution were retrospectively reviewed. Eight patients who received CCRT concomitant with SEMS placement (SEMS plus CCRT group) and thirty-eight patients who received CCRT without SEMS placement (CCRT group) were identified. The risk of developing esophageal fistula and the overall survival of the two groups were analyzed. RESULTS The rate of esophageal fistula formation during or after CCRT was 87.5% in the SEMS plus CCRT group and 2.6% in the CCRT group. The median doses of radiotherapy in the SEMS plus CCRT group and the CCRT group were 47.5 Gy and 50 Gy, respectively. SEMS combined with CCRT was associated with a greater risk of esophageal fistula formation than CCRT alone (hazard ratio [HR], 72.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 8.62-606.12; p < .001). The median overall survival times in the SEMS plus CCRT and CCRT groups were 6 months and 16 months, respectively. Overall survival was significantly worse in the SEMS plus CCRT group than in the CCRT group (HR, 5.72; 95% CI, 2.15-15.21; p < .001). CONCLUSION CCRT concomitant with SEMS for locally advanced esophageal cancer results in earlier life-threatening morbidity and a higher mortality rate than treatment with CCRT alone. Further prospective and randomized studies are warranted to confirm these observations. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Patients treated with SEMS placement followed by CCRT had higher risk of esophageal fistula formation and inferior overall survival rate compared with patients treated with CCRT alone. SEMS placement should be performed cautiously in patients who are scheduled to receive CCRT with curative intent.

Abstract
A malignant tumor can cause hypercoagulation and it also often coexists with thrombosis. Cisplatin-based chemotherapy can also induce adverse vascular effects, including arterial thrombosis. We herein report a case of acute arterial thrombosis in a patient undergoing postoperative adjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy for completely resected lung cancer. The patient complained of acute leg pain after chemotherapy, and computed tomography revealed multiple thrombi from the thoracic to popliteal arteries. Arterial thrombosis during adjuvant chemotherapy is extremely rare; however, careful clinical observation of patients receiving cisplatin-based chemotherapy is important, because arterial thrombosis, even in the absence of the primary malignant tumor, is possible.

Abstract
We report on platinum(ii) complexes with different cinnamic acid derivatives as ligands with cytotoxic activity against Cisplatin resistant ovarian cancer cell line subcultures of SKOV3 and A2780. A typical mechanism of action for platinum(ii) complexes as Cisplatin itself is binding to the DNA and inducing double-strand breaks. We examined the biological behavior of these potential drugs with 9-methylguanine using NMR spectroscopic methods and their DNA damage potential including γH2AX-foci analyses. X-ray diffraction methods have been used to elucidate the molecular structures of the platinum(ii) complexes. Interactions with the model protein lysozyme have been evaluated by different techniques including UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence and X-ray crystallography.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE It is thought that the mechanism of action of anticancer chemotherapeutic agents is mainly due to a direct inhibition of tumour cell proliferation. In tumour specimens, the endothelial cell proliferation rate increases, suggesting that the therapeutic effects of anticancer agents could also be attributed to inhibition of tumour angiogenesis. Hence, we investigated the potential effects of [Pt(O,O'-acac)(γ-acac)(DMS)] ([Pt(DMS)]), a new platinum drug for non-genomic targets, on human renal carcinoma and compared them with those of the well-established anticancer drug, cisplatin. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Tumour growth, tumour cell proliferation and microvessel density were investigated in a xenograft model of renal cell carcinoma, developed by injecting Caki-1 cells into BALB/c nude mice. The antiangiogenic potential of compounds was also investigated using HUVECs. KEY RESULTS Treatment of the Caki-1 cells with cisplatin or [Pt(DMS)] resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of cell survival, but the cytotoxicity of [Pt(DMS)] was approximately fivefold greater than that of cisplatin. [Pt(DMS)] was much more effective than cisplatin at inhibiting tumour growth, proliferation and angiogenesis in vivo, as well as migration, tube formation and MMP1, MMP2 and MMP9 secretion of endothelial cells in vitro. Whereas, cisplatin exerted a greater cytotoxic effect on HUVECs, but did not affect tube formation or the migration of endothelial cells. In addition, treatment of the xenograft mice with [Pt(DMS)] decreased VEGF, MMP1 and MMP2 expressions in tumours. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS The antiangiogenic and antitumour activities of [Pt(DMS)] provide a solid starting point for its validation as a suitable candidate for further pharmacological testing.

Abstract
Background: Recent studies have revealed that the disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) might contribute to the induction of neurodegeneration in the progressive stage of multiple sclerosis (MS). Objective: We investigated a potential target for the serum auto-antibodies responsible for the BBB impairment in patients with secondary progressive MS (SPMS). Methods: We identified undetermined target antigens in human brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) that reacted with auto-antibodies in sera from SPMS patients using a proteomic approach. In addition, we examined how the identified auto-antibodies compromise the BBB integrity. Results: We found that 10 of 11 SPMS sera had auto-antibodies against galectin-3, although the patients with other neurological diseases did not have these antibodies. Downregulation of galectin-3 led to elevated intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and phospho-nuclear factor-kappa (NFκ) B p65 expression in the BMECs. Exposure to SPMS patients’ sera also increased the protein levels of ICAM-1 and phospho-NFκB p65 in BMECs, but these effects induced by anti-galectin-3 immunoreactivity were canceled by the downregulation of galectin-3. Conclusion: Galectin-3 is a possible immunological target molecule of the pathogenic auto-antibodies and contributes to the persistent BBB breakdown in patients with SPMS. These antibodies may also serve as a novel biomarker for SPMS.

Abstract
Platinum-based chemotherapy has been associated with increased long-term cardiovascular events. Also noteworthy is the accumulating awareness of early vascular toxicity occurring at the time of chemotherapy or immediately thereafter. The objective of the study was to delineate the molecular mechanisms associated with the early vascular toxicity and test the molecular silencing approach towards attenuating the endothelial dysfunction during platinum-based chemotherapy. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with varying concentrations of cisplatin (1.0-10.0μg/ml) or vehicle control (0.1% dimethyl sulfoxide) for monitoring the changes in Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) mRNA and protein expression viz. a viz. altered activation of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms, transient receptor potential channel (TRPC) 1 expression, Nuclear factor 'kappa-light-chain-enhancer' of activated B-cells (NF-κB), Store Operated Ca(2+) Entry (SOCE) in cisplatin-induced endothelial permeability and adherence of the activated endothelial cells to human monocyte-like U937 cells. Silencing of either PKC-α, TRPC1 or p65 subunit of NF-κB, all resulted in significant alleviation of cisplatin-induced endothelial dysfunction. At concentrations ≥8μg/ml, cisplatin induced a significant increase in the expression of ICAM-1 mRNA as well as protein. This was mediated by changes in PKC-α membrane translocation, NF-κB activation, increased expression as well as phosphorylation of TRPC1 and enhanced SOCE, leading to hyperpermeability and leakage of albumin. Increased adherence of U937 monocytes to cisplatin-activated endothelial cells was evident. Cisplatin challenge activates PKC-α, which in turn phosphorylated TRPC1 resulting in enhanced Ca(2+) entry. Increased Ca(2+) flux is required for activation of NF-κB and ICAM-1 expression. Enhanced ICAM-1 expression promotes monocyte binding to endothelial cells and increased endothelial hyperpermeability.

Abstract
Introduction Chemotherapy-related endothelial damage contributes to the early development of cardiovascular morbidity in testicular cancer patients. We aimed to identify relevant mechanisms of and search for candidate biomarkers for this endothelial damage. Methods Human micro-vascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1) were exposed to bleomycin or cisplatin with untreated samples as control. 18k cDNA microarrays were used. Gene expression differences were analysed at single gene level and in gene sets clustered in biological pathways and validated by qRT-PCR. Protein levels of a candidate biomarker were measured in testicular cancer patient plasma before, during and after bleomycin-etoposide-cisplatin chemotherapy, and related to endothelial damage biomarkers (von Willebrand Factor (vWF), high-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP)). Results Microarray data identified several genes with highly differential expression; e.g. Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF-15), Activating Transcription Factor 3 (ATF3) and Amphiregulin (AREG). Pathway analysis revealed strong associations with ‘p53’ and ‘Diabetes Mellitus’ gene sets. Based on known function, we measured GDF-15 protein levels in 41 testicular patients during clinical follow-up. Pre-chemotherapy GDF-15 levels equalled controls. Throughout chemotherapy GDF-15, vWF and hsCRP levels increased, and were correlated at different time-points. Conclusion An unbiased approach in a preclinical model revealed genes related to chemotherapy-induced endothelial damage, like GDF-15. The increases in plasma GDF-15 levels in testicular cancer patients during chemotherapy and its association with vWF and hsCRP suggest that GDF-15 is a potentially useful biomarker related to endothelial damage.

Abstract
DNA-damaging agents have been reported to be associated with cardiovascular complications, however, the underlying mechanisms remain to be clarified. In the present study, the possible vascular effects of cisplatin was assessed by measuring its effects on the contractile function of thoracic aortic rings dissected from Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Contraction of the aortic ring was induced by 60 mM KCl or 10-6 M phenylephrine (PE) in an ex vivo perfusion system. Cisplatin (200 μM) counteracted KCl- and PE-induced contraction by 57.6 and 91.8%, respectively, in endothelium-intact aortic rings. Similar results were obtained in endothelium-denuded aortas. Electromicroscopy analysis revealed severe damage to blood vessel walls in vivo by cisplatin. In addition, cisplatin significantly inhibited adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-induced intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) increases in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). These results suggested that the DNA-damaging agent cisplatin can affect the contractile function of thoracic aortas. In addition, in accordance with its DNA-damaging properties, the cardiovascular toxicity of cisplatin may be the result of its direct cytotoxicity.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether a novel NF-κB inhibitor, KZ-41, can inhibit melphalan's actions on retinal endothelial cell (REC) inflammation and apoptosis, without eliminating the chemotherapeutic efficacy of melphalan on cell death of retinoblastoma cells (Y79). METHODS RECs were cultured in M131 medium supplemented with growth factors and antibiotics. Once cells reached confluence, they were treated with or without 10 μM KZ-41, following treatment with 4 μg/mL melphalan. Cell proteins were extracted and analyzed for intracellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) levels and Cell Death ELISA. RECs were also transfected with or without NF-κB siRNA or treated with SB202190 (p38 [mitogen activated protein kinase] MAPK inhibitor) before melphalan treatment to determine the involvement of NF-κB and p38 MAPK in REC apoptosis and ICAM-1 levels. We also cultured retinoblastoma cells (Y79) in RMPI-1640 medium supplemented with 20% fetal bovine serum and performed a Cell Death ELISA after melphalan + KZ-41 treatment to determine if the treatments altered melphalan's ability to promote cell death of Y79 cells. RESULTS KZ-41 inhibited melphalan-stimulation of ICAM-1 levels and REC apoptosis, whereas KZ-41 did not alter melphalan's effects on Y79 cells. KZ-41's protective effects on REC were mediated through p38 MAPK activation. Although KZ-41 blocked both NF-κB- and p38 MAPK-dependent ICAM-1 stimulation; the p38 MAPK/ICAM-1 pathway appears to be the primary pathway involved in melphalan-induced REC apoptosis. CONCLUSIONS KZ-41 protects REC against melphalan-induced upregulation of ICAM-1 and apoptosis through p38 MAPK-dependent pathways.

Abstract
Chemotherapy with platinum doublets, including cisplatin plus vinorelbine, is standard of care for non-small-cell lung cancer. Sublethal exposure to certain chemotherapeutic agents has been demonstrated to alter the phenotype or biology of human tumor cells, rendering them more susceptible to cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated lysis. The effects of cisplatin/vinorelbine on tumor sensitivity to T-cell cytotoxicity and its molecular mechanisms, however, have not been fully elucidated. We examined the effect of this chemotherapy on growth, cell-surface phenotype, and CTL-mediated lysis of five distinct human lung carcinoma cell lines in vitro and examined the molecular mechanisms associated with enhanced CTL sensitivity. These studies demonstrate that sublethal exposure of human lung tumor cells to the platinum doublet modulates tumor cell phenotype and increases sensitivity to major histocompatibility complex-restricted perforin/granzyme-mediated CTL killing. These studies also demonstrate that exposure to chemotherapy markedly decreased the protein secretion ratio of transforming growth factor-β/interleukin (IL)-8. We examined the gene expression profile of two lung tumor cell lines to identify a shared gene signature in response to sublethal cisplatin/vinorelbine and found coordinate expression of only 16 transcripts, including those for cytokine/chemokine expression and apoptosis such as tumor necrosis factor-α, IL8, CXCL5, and B cell lymphoma-2-like genes (BCL-2). Overall, these results suggest that sublethal exposure to cisplatin/vinorelbine increases sensitivity to perforin/granzyme-mediated CTL killing by modulation of (a) tumor phenotype, (b) cytokine/chemokine milieu, and (c) the proapoptotic/antiapoptotic gene ratio. The data presented here propose a complex mechanism that is distinct from and complementary to that of immunogenic cell death. This molecular signature may be useful in predicting responses to immunotherapy as well as provide the rationale for the potential clinical benefit of the combined use of vaccine with cisplatin/vinorelbine regimens.

Abstract
Cannabinoids inhibit cancer cell invasion via increasing tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1). This study investigates the role of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) within this action. In the lung cancer cell lines A549, H358, and H460, cannabidiol (CBD; 0.001-3 μM) elicited concentration-dependent ICAM-1 up-regulation compared to vehicle via cannabinoid receptors, transient receptor potential vanilloid 1, and p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase. Up-regulation of ICAM-1 mRNA by CBD in A549 was 4-fold at 3 μM, with significant effects already evident at 0.01 μM. ICAM-1 induction became significant after 2 h, whereas significant TIMP-1 mRNA increases were observed only after 48 h. Inhibition of ICAM-1 by antibody or siRNA approaches reversed the anti-invasive and TIMP-1-upregulating action of CBD and the likewise ICAM-1-inducing cannabinoids Δ(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol and R(+)-methanandamide when compared to isotype or nonsilencing siRNA controls. ICAM-1-dependent anti-invasive cannabinoid effects were confirmed in primary tumor cells from a lung cancer patient. In athymic nude mice, CBD elicited a 2.6- and 3.0-fold increase of ICAM-1 and TIMP-1 protein in A549 xenografts, as compared to vehicle-treated animals, and an antimetastatic effect that was fully reversed by a neutralizing antibody against ICAM-1 [% metastatic lung nodules vs. isotype control (100%): 47.7% for CBD + isotype antibody and 106.6% for CBD + ICAM-1 antibody]. Overall, our data indicate that cannabinoids induce ICAM-1, thereby conferring TIMP-1 induction and subsequent decreased cancer cell invasiveness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cross-sectional studies showed that treatment with cisplatin chemotherapy for testicular cancer is associated with an increased incidence of cardiac dysfunction. We investigated longitudinal progression of and contributing factors to cardiac dysfunction in testicular cancer survivors. PATIENTS AND METHODS Cardiac assessments were carried out before 10 months (range 7-15 months) and 6.9 years (range 4.9-9.7 years) after start of cisplatin-based chemotherapy, consisting of echocardiography [systolic function (left ventricular ejection fraction, LVEF), diastolic function (myocardial tissue velocities; tissue velocity imaging of early diastole, TVI Et)] and plasma biomarkers (N-Terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide, NT-proBNP; galectin-3). RESULTS In 37 patients [median age 34 years (range 24-51 years)], the incidence of abnormal TVI Et increased from 0% at baseline and 4.5% at 10 months (in 27 patients) to 16.7% at 6.9 years post-chemotherapy (P = 0.03). One patient developed LVEF <50%; no other systolic abnormalities occurred. Hypertension, obesity and age were associated with larger decreases in TVI Et. Changes in NT-proBNP and galectin-3 were not related to echocardiographic abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS In this longitudinal cohort study, we observed a gradual decline in diastolic parameters after cisplatin-based chemotherapy for testicular cancer, whereas the rate of systolic dysfunction remains low. The association of larger declines in diastolic parameters with hypertension and obesity stresses the need to monitor and treat cardiovascular risk factors.

Abstract
Cancer in elderly patients is an increasingly common problem. Older patients have more co-morbidity, therefore the toxic effects of chemotherapy treatment are less tolerable compared to younger patients. Platinum-based compounds (PBCs) are commonly used cytotoxic agents in the treatment of several solid tumors; however, their application is still limited in elderly patients, due to the risks in cardiovascular toxicity. The increased risk for myocardial ischemia, stroke, and vascular thrombosis linked with PBCs treatment is mainly due to reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and the subsequent induction of oxidative stress and switch to a prothrombotic condition. Recently, studies have shown a different genetic susceptibility in cardiovascular toxicity induced by therapy with PBCs. Antioxidants, such as vitamin E, selenium, lycopene, melatonin, and resveratrol, have been implicated in cancer treatment by their property to suppress the oxidant injury. Resveratrol, especially, has been shown to increase the antineoplastic activity of cisplatin. In addition, resveratrol's ability to activate the sirtuin1 (SIRT1) pathway has been heavily implicated in the mechanisms controlling longevity and quality of life in the aged population. This article reviews the current state of treatment with PBCs and their associated risk for cardiovascular disease. It discusses the most powerful antioxidant supplementation options as a possible strategy to reduce the cardiovascular toxicity effects of chemotherapy in the elderly.

Abstract
The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) is known to be activated in many cancer types including lung, ovarian, astrocytomas, melanoma, prostate as well as glioblastoma, and has been shown to correlate with disease progression. We have cloned a novel NF-κB-based reporter system (five tandem repeats of NF-κB responsive genomic element (NF; 14 bp each)) to drive the expression cassette for both a fusion between the yeast cytosine deaminase and uracil phosphoribosyltransferase (CU) as a therapeutic gene and the secreted Gaussia luciferase (Gluc) as a blood reporter, separated by an internal ribosomal entry site (NF-CU-IGluc). We showed that malignant tumor cells have high expression of Gluc, which correlates to high activation of NF-κB. When NF-κB was further activated by tumor necrosis factor-α in these cells, we observed up to 10-fold increase in Gluc levels and therefore transgene expression in human glioma cells served to greatly enhance the sensitization of these cells to the prodrug, 5-fluorocytosine both in cultured cells and in vivo subcutaneous tumor xenograft model. This inducible system provides a tool to enhance the expression of imaging and therapeutic genes for cancer therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and long-term incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in survivors of testicular cancer (TC). METHODS Overall, 990 men treated for unilateral TC (1980 to 1994) were included in this national follow-up study (2007 to 2008). They were categorized into four treatment groups: surgery (n = 206), radiotherapy only (RT; n = 386), chemotherapy only (n = 364), and combined RT/chemotherapy (n = 34). Age-matched male controls from the general population (ie, NORMs) were included (n = 990). Survivors of TC who were diagnosed with CVD before or within 2 years after the TC diagnosis were excluded from analyses of CVD end points. RESULTS Median observation time was 19 years (range, 13 to 28 years). All cytotoxic treatment groups had significantly increased prevalences of antihypertensive medication, and survivors in the RT and RT/chemotherapy groups had higher prevalences of diabetes (RT: odds ratio [OR], 2.3; 95% CI, 1.5 to 3.7; RT/chemotherapy: OR, 3.9; 95% CI, 1.4 to 10.9) compared with NORMs. Overall 74 survivors of TC (8.0%) experienced atherosclerotic disease during follow-up. Increased risks for atherosclerotic disease were observed in age-adjusted Cox regression analyses after any cytotoxic treatment when compared with surgery only (RT: hazard ratio [HR], 2.3; 95% CI, 1.04 to 5.3; chemotherapy: HR, 2.6; 95% CI, 1.1 to 5.9; RT/chemotherapy: HR, 4.8; 95% CI, 1.6 to 14.4). Treatment with cisplatin, bleomycin, and etoposide (BEP) alone had a 5.7-fold higher risk (95% CI, 1.9 to 17.1 fold) for coronary artery disease compared with surgery only and a 3.1-fold higher risk (95% CI, 1.2 to 7.7 fold) for myocardial infarction compared with NORMs. CONCLUSION Treatment with infradiaphragmatic RT and/or cisplatin-based chemotherapy, particularly the BEP regimen, increases the long-term risk for CVD in survivors of TC.

Abstract
PURPOSE Long-term toxicity after cancer treatment has gained increasing clinical attention. We evaluated pulmonary function in long-term survivors of testicular cancer (TC). PATIENTS AND METHODS The pulmonary function of 1,049 TC survivors treated during 1980 to 1994 at three university hospitals in Norway was assessed by spirometry and a questionnaire (1998 to 2002). The patients were categorized into five treatment groups, as follows: surgery only (n = 202); radiotherapy only (n = 449); chemotherapy (cisplatin < or = 850 mg; n = 306); chemotherapy (cisplatin > 850 mg [higher-dose group]; n = 62); and chemotherapy and pulmonary surgery (cis/pulmsurg; n = 30). Spirometry variables included forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1). Actual values and percentages of predicted normal values (FVC%pred and FEV1%pred, respectively) are reported. Restrictive lung disease was defined as FEV1/FVC > or = 70% and FVC%pred less than 80%. RESULTS Median observation time was 11.2 years (range, 5 to 21 years). Compared with the surgery group, the higher-dose or cis/pulmsurg groups had considerably lower age-adjusted FVC (higher-dose: beta = -.37; P = .001; cis/pulmsurg: beta = -.58; P < .001), FEV1 (higher-dose: beta = -.24; P = .014; cis/pulmsurg: beta = -.55; P < .001), FVC%pred (higher-dose: beta = -8.3; cis/pulmsurg: beta = -10.5; bothP < .001), and FEV1%pred (higher-dose: beta = -6.8; P = .003; cis/pulmsurg: beta = -12.4; P < .001). Adjustment for total testosterone, body mass index, smoking, and physical activity did not change these associations. Eight percent of all patients had restrictive lung disease, and the highest prevalence was in the higher-dose group (17.7%) and the cis/pulmsurg (16.7%) group. Compared with patients who underwent surgery only, these groups had odds ratio for restrictive disease of 3.1 (95% CI, 1.3 to 7.3) and 2.5 (95% CI, 0.8 to 7.6), respectively. CONCLUSION Large doses of cisplatin-based chemotherapy and combined chemotherapy/pulmonary surgery are significantly associated with decreased pulmonary function several years after TC treatment.

Abstract
Cardiovascular toxicity is one of the most devastating complications of cancer treatment and can arise during or shortly after treatment, or even several years later. Identification of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is the most common method to screen for toxic effects on the heart; however, this approach underestimates cardiac damage and additional strategies for the monitoring of treatment-induced cardiotoxicity are being explored. Guidelines for monitoring have been formulated for several cancer treatments; however, appropriate underlying evidence is still largely absent. In this Review, we summarise conventional and contemporary methods for early detection of cardiotoxicity and designate a level of evidence for the basis of each method.
