Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) have a poor prognosis. The standard palliative treatment for four decades has been chemotherapy as a combination of etoposide with carboplatin or cisplatin, and in recent years, immunotherapy in addition. AIMS To determine whether there is a difference in the efficacy of palliative chemotherapy as cisplatin or carboplatin in combination with etoposide in patients with ES-SCLC in real-world practice in the Czech Republic. METHODS This was a retrospective analysis of a cohort of 348 patients from the LUCAS project with ES-SCLC. 79 were treated with etoposide plus cisplatin and 265 were treated with etoposide plus carboplatin. Kaplan-Meier curves and the Cox regression model were used for analysis. RESULTS No statistically significant difference in median overall survival (mOS) or median progression free survival (mPFS) was found between groups or between patients grouped according to age and performance status (PS) in mOS. The Cox regression result was similar. CONCLUSION This study shows that cisplatin and carboplatin do not differ in efficacy in a given indication, thus when choosing a treatment, the physician should consider the expected toxicity in a particular patient, assessing the patient's general condition and comorbidities.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a commonly used chemotherapy agent with a nearly universal side effect of sensorineural hearing loss. The cellular mechanisms underlying cisplatin ototoxicity are poorly understood. Efforts in drug development to prevent or reverse cisplatin ototoxicity have largely focused on pathways of oxidative stress and apoptosis. An effective treatment for cisplatin ototoxicity, sodium thiosulfate (STS), while beneficial when used in standard risk hepatoblastoma, is associated with reduced survival in disseminated pediatric malignancies, highlighting the need for more specific drugs without potential tumor protective effects. The unfolded protein response (UPR) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathways have been shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of noise-induced hearing loss and cochlear synaptopathy in vivo, and these pathways have been implicated broadly in cisplatin cytotoxicity. This study sought to determine whether the UPR can be targeted to prevent cisplatin ototoxicity. Neonatal cochlear cultures and HEK cells were exposed to cisplatin and UPR-modulating drugs, and UPR marker gene expression and cell death measured. Treatment with ISRIB, a drug that activates eif2B and downregulates the pro-apoptotic PERK/CHOP pathway of the UPR, was tested in an in vivo mouse model of cisplatin ototoxicity and well as a head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell-based assay of cisplatin cytotoxicity. Cisplatin exhibited a biphasic, non-linear dose-response of cell death and apoptosis that correlated with different patterns of UPR marker gene expression in HEK cells and cochlear cultures. ISRIB treatment protected against cisplatin-induced hearing loss and hair-cell death, but did not impact the cytotoxic effects of cisplatin on HNSCC cell viability, unlike STS. These findings demonstrate that targeting the pro-apoptotic PERK/CHOP pathway with ISRIB can mitigate cisplatin ototoxicity without reducing anti-cancer cell effects, suggesting that this may be a viable strategy for drug development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Macrophages promote angiogenesis, metastasis, and drug resistance in several cancers. Similarly, TonEBP/NFAT5 induces metastasis in renal carcinoma and colon cancer cells. However, the role of this transcription factor and that of macrophages in lung cancer cells remains unclear. Therefore, this study investigated the effects of macrophages and TonEBP/NFAT5 expression on cisplatin resistance and migration in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells. RESULTS A549 cells were cultured alone or indirectly co-cultured with THP-1-derived macrophages using a transwell culture chamber. Cisplatin-induced cell death was markedly decreased and migration increased in co-cultured A549 cells. Macrophage-conditioned media (CM) showed a similar effect on drug resistance and migration. Cisplatin-induced apoptosis, DNA fragmentation, and cleaved apoptotic proteins PARP and caspase-3 were markedly reduced in macrophage CM-induced A549 cells. Here, ERK, p38, JNK, and NF-κB activities were increased by macrophage CM. Furthermore, the proteins involved in cisplatin resistance and cancer cell migration were identified using specific inhibitors of each protein. ERK and NF-κB inhibition considerably reduced cisplatin resistance. The increase in macrophage CM-induced migration was partially reduced by treatment with ERK, JNK, and NF-κB inhibitors. TonEBP/NFAT5 expression was increased by macrophages, resulting in increased cisplatin resistance, cell migration, and invasion. Moreover, RNAi-mediated knockdown of TonEBP/NFAT5 reduced cisplatin resistance, migration, and invasion in macrophage CM-induced A549 cells. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrate that paracrine factors secreted from macrophages can change A549 cells, resulting in the induction of drug resistance against cisplatin and migration. In addition, the TonEBP/NFAT5 ratio, increased by macrophages, is an important regulator of the malignant transformation of cells.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were formerly known as mere byproducts of metabolism with damaging effects on cellular structures. The discovery and description of NADPH oxidases (Nox) as a whole enzyme family that only produce this harmful group of molecules was surprising. After intensive research, seven Nox isoforms were discovered, described and extensively studied. Among them, the NADPH oxidase 3 is the perhaps most underrated Nox isoform, since it was firstly discovered in the inner ear. This stigma of Nox3 as "being only expressed in the inner ear" was also used by me several times. Therefore, the question arose whether this sentence is still valid or even usable. To this end, this review solely focuses on Nox3 and summarizes its discovery, the structural components, the activating and regulating factors, the expression in cells, tissues and organs, as well as the beneficial and detrimental effects of Nox3-mediated ROS production on body functions. Furthermore, the involvement of Nox3-derived ROS in diseases progression and, accordingly, as a potential target for disease treatment, will be discussed.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a widely used and highly effective anti-cancer drug with significant side effects including ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Macrophages, the major resident immune cells in the cochlea and kidney, are important drivers of both inflammatory and tissue repair responses. To investigate the roles of macrophages in cisplatin-induced ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity, we used PLX3397, an FDA-approved inhibitor of the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R), to eliminate tissue-resident macrophages during the course of cisplatin administration. Mice treated with cisplatin alone (cisplatin/vehicle) had significant hearing loss (ototoxicity) as well as kidney injury (nephrotoxicity). Macrophage ablation using PLX3397 resulted in significantly reduced hearing loss measured by auditory brainstem responses (ABR) and distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE). Sensory hair cells in the cochlea were protected against cisplatin-induced death in mice treated with PLX3397. Macrophage ablation also protected against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, as evidenced by markedly reduced tubular injury and fibrosis as well as reduced plasma blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) levels. Mechanistically, our data suggest that the protective effect of macrophage ablation against cisplatin-induced ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity is mediated by reduced platinum accumulation in both the inner ear and the kidney. Together our data indicate that ablation of tissue-resident macrophages represents a novel strategy for mitigating cisplatin-induced ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Brief summary Macrophage ablation using PLX3397 was protective against cisplatin-induced ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity by limiting platinum accumulation in the inner ear and kidney.

Lysophosphatidic acid exerts protective effects on HEI-OC1 cells against cytotoxicity of cisplatin by decreasing apoptosis, excessive autophagy, and accumulation of ROS. Cell Death Discov 2023; 9:415. [PMID: 37968255 PMCID: PMC10651903 DOI: 10.1038/s41420-023-01706-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2023] [Revised: 10/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is an active phospholipid signaling molecule that binds to six specific G protein-coupled receptors (LPA1-6) on the cell surface and exerts a variety of biological functions, including cell migration and proliferation, morphological changes, and anti-apoptosis. The earliest study from our group demonstrated that LPA treatment could restore cochlear F-actin depolymerization induced by noise exposure, reduce hair cell death, and thus protect hearing. However, whether LPA could protect against cisplatin-induced ototoxicity and which receptors play the major role remain unclear. To this end, we integrated the HEI-OC1 mouse cochlear hair cell line and zebrafish model, and found that cisplatin exposure induced a large amount of reactive oxygen species accumulation in HEI-OC1 cells, accompanied by mitochondrial damage, leading to apoptosis and autophagy. LPA treatment significantly attenuated autophagy and apoptosis in HEI-OC1 cells after cisplatin exposure. Further investigation revealed that all LPA receptors except LPA3 were expressed in HEI-OC1 cells, and the mRNA expression level of LPA1 receptor was significantly higher than that of other receptors. When LPA1 receptor was silenced, the protective effect of LPA was reduced and the proportion of apoptosis cells was increased, indicating that LPA-LPA1 plays an important role in protecting HEI-OC1 cells from cisplatin-induced apoptosis. In addition, the behavioral trajectory and in vivo fluorescence imaging results showed that cisplatin exposure caused zebrafish to move more actively, and the movement speed and distance were higher than those of the control and LPA groups, while LPA treatment reduced the movement behavior. Cisplatin caused hair cell death and loss in zebrafish lateral line, and LPA treatment significantly protected against hair cell death and loss. LPA has a protective effect on hair cells in vitro and in vivo against the cytotoxicity of cisplatin, and its mechanism may be related to reducing apoptosis, excessive autophagy and ROS accumulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is one of the main illnesses afflicting the aged population and has a significant negative impact on society, economy, and health. However, there is presently no appropriate therapeutic treatment of ARHL due to the absence of comprehensive trials. OBJECTIVES The goal of this review is to systematically evaluate and analyze recent statistics on the pathologic classifications, risk factors, treatment strategies, and drug candidates of ARHL, including that from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), to provide potential new approaches for preventing and treating ARHL. METHODS Literature related to ARHL was conducted in databases such as PubMed, WOS, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfang from the establishment of the database to Jan, 2023. The pathology, causal factor, pathophysiological mechanism, treatment strategy, and the drug candidate of ARHL were extracted and pooled for synthesis. RESULTS Many hypotheses about the etiology of ARHL are based on genetic and environmental elements. Most of the current research on the pathology of ARHL focuses on oxidative damage, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, cochlear blood flow, ion homeostasis, etc. In TCM, herbs belonging to the kidney, lung, and liver meridians exhibit good hearing protection. Seven herbs belonging to the kidney meridian, 9 belonging to the lung meridian, and 4 belonging to the liver meridian were ultimately retrieved in this review, such as Polygonum multiflorum Thunb., Panax ginseng C.A. Mey, and Pueraria lobata (Willd.) Ohwi. Their active compounds, 2,3,4',5-Tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-D-glucoside, ginsenoside Rb1, and puerarin, may act as the molecular substance for their anti-ARHL efficacy, and show anti-oxidative, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, or mitochondrial protective effects. CONCLUSION Anti-oxidants, modulators of mitochondrial function, anti-inflammation agents, vasodilators, K+ channel openers, Ca2+ channel blockers, JNK inhibitors, and nerve growth factors/neurotrophic factors all contribute to hearing protection, and herbs are an important source of potential anti-ARHL drugs.

Abstract
Sinonasal cancer is a heterogeneous orphan disease of diverse histologies, each with distinct clinical, oncologic, and toxicity profiles. Because of the comparative rarity of these cancers, sinonasal cancers are treated as a grouped diagnosis despite their clinical and biological heterogeneity. Multimodality treatment with a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiotherapy is the standard-of-care for advanced-stage patients but there are few surveillance or follow-up practice guidelines or formalized survivorship care pathways. A scoping literature review was conducted via PubMed, EMBASE, and Google Scholar. A total of 112 studies were included, which were grouped along the following topics: surveillance, second primary tumors, quality of life, and symptom burden. Sinonasal cancer tends to exhibit a higher rate of local failure and occur in a delayed fashion compared to mucosal malignancies of the head and neck. Moreover, the site of failure and time-varying risk of recurrence is histology-specific. Following multimodality treatment of the skull base, patients may experience endocrine, visual, auditory, sinonasal, olfactory, and neurocognitive deficits, as well as psychosocial impairments that impact multiple physical and neuropsychological domains, resulting in diminished quality of life. Sinonasal cancer patients would benefit from tailored, histology-specific survivorship programs to address the recurrence, second primary, and functional impairments resulting from disease and treatment toxicity.

Abstract
Ototoxic drugs such as aminoglycoside antibiotics and cisplatin (CDDP) can cause sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), which is closely related to oxidative stress and the acidification of the inner ear microenvironment. Effective treatment of SNHL often requires multifaceted approach due to the complex pathology, and drug combination therapy is expected to be at the forefront of modern hearing loss treatment. Here, space-station-like composite nanoparticles (CCC@mPP NPs) with pH/oxidation dual responsiveness and multidrug simultaneous delivery capability were constructed and then loaded with various drugs including panax notoginseng saponins (PNS), tanshinone IIA (TSIIA), and ammonia borane (AB) to provide robust protection against SNHL. Molecular dynamics simulation revealed that carboxymethyl chitosan/calcium carbonate-chitosan (CCC) NPs and monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-PLGA (mPP) NPs can rendezvous and dock primarily by hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic forces may be involved. Moreover, CCC@mPP NPs crossed the round window membrane (RWM) and entered the inner ear through endocytosis and paracellular pathway. The docking state was basically maintained during this process, which created favorable conditions for multidrug delivery. This nanosystem was highly sensitive to pH and reactive oxygen species (ROS) changes, as evidenced by the restricted release of payload at alkaline condition (pH 7.4) without ROS, while significantly promoting the release in acidic condition (pH 5.0 and 6.0) with ROS. TSIIA/PNS/AB-loaded CCC@mPP NPs almost completely preserved the hair cells and remained the hearing threshold shift within normal limits in aminoglycoside- or CDDP-treated guinea pigs. Further experiments demonstrated that the protective mechanisms of TSIIA/PNS/AB-loaded CCC@mPP NPs involved direct and indirect scavenging of excessive ROS, and reduced release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments showed the high biocompatibility of the composite NPs, even after long-term administration. Collectively, this work suggests that composite NPs is an ideal multi-drug-delivery vehicle and open new avenues for inner ear disease therapies.

[PMID: 37138418 DOI: 10.2174/1381612829666230503145707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2022] [Revised: 03/05/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although chemotherapy and radiotherapy are effective in cancer treatment, different adverse effects induced by these therapeutic modalities (such as ototoxicity) restrict their clinical use. Co-treatment of melatonin may alleviate the chemotherapy/radiotherapy-induced ototoxicity. OBJECTIVE In the present study, the otoprotective potentials of melatonin against the ototoxicity induced by chemotherapy and radiotherapy were reviewed. METHODS According to the PRISMA guideline, a systematic search was carried out to identify all relevant studies on "the role of melatonin against ototoxic damage associated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy" in the different electronic databases up to September 2022. Sixty-seven articles were screened based on a predefined set of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Seven eligible studies were finally included in this review. RESULTS The in vitro findings showed that cisplatin chemotherapy significantly decreased the auditory cell viability compared to the control group; in contrast, the melatonin co-administration increased the cell viability of cisplatin-treated cells. The results obtained from the distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) and auditory brainstem response (ABR) tests demonstrated a decreased amplitude of DPOAE and increased values of ABR I-IV interval and ABR threshold in mice/rats receiving radiotherapy and cisplatin; nevertheless, melatonin co-treatment indicated an opposite pattern on these evaluated parameters. It was also found that cisplatin and radiotherapy could significantly induce the histological and biochemical changes in the auditory cells/tissue. However, melatonin co-treatment resulted in alleviating the cisplatin/radiotherapy-induced biochemical and histological changes. CONCLUSION According to the findings, it was shown that melatonin co-treatment alleviates the ototoxic damage induced by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Mechanically, melatonin may exert its otoprotective effects via its anti-oxidant, anti-apoptotic, and anti-inflammatory activities and other mechanisms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In women, agents used in chemotherapy treatment have side effects such as accelerating follicular depletion and early menopause. Thus, cytotoxic treatments may cause various effects ranging from partial damage to the ovary to premature ovarian failure (POI) and infertility. This study aimed to investigate the protective effect of carvacrol on cisplatin (CIS)-induced reproductive toxicity in female rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS The animals were divided to four groups; a healthy group (HG), administered only cisplatin 2.5 mg/kg (CIS); cisplatin 2.5 mg/kg + carvacrol mg/kg (CC-50), and cisplatin 2.5 mg/kg + carvacrol 100 mg/kg (CC-100). In this study, the CC-50 and CC-100 groups were injected with carvacrol at 50 and 100 mg/kg intraperitoneally (IP). The CIS and HG groupswere administered normal saline as a solvent in the same way. One hour afterwardthe CC-50 and CC-100 groups were injected with cisplatin at 2.5 mg/kg IP. This procedure was continued once a day for 14 days. At the end of this period, six rats from each group were euthanized with high-dose anaesthesia. Biochemical (oxidant-antioxidant and proinflammatory cytokines) and histopathological examinations were performed on the right ovarian tissue removed from the dead rats. The remaining (n = 6 in each group) animals were kept in the laboratory with mature male rats for two months for breeding. Rats that didn't give birth within two months were considered infertile. A one-way ANOVA test was used for the biochemical analysis, the a Kruskal Wallis test was used for the histopathological analysis. RESULTS It has been observed that cisplatine causes oxidative stress and inflammatory damage in the ovarian tissue of animals and ultimately causes infertility due to this oxidative stress. While carvacrol significantly suppressed cisplatin-related oxidative stress in ovarian tissue at the 50 and 100 mg/kg doses, it could suppress proinflammatory cytokine increase only at thecytokine increase only at the 100 mg/kg dose. In addition, carvacrol significantly reduced the development of cisplatin-related infertility (from 0 to 83.3%) at a dose of 100 mg/kg. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that carvacrol at high doses can reduce the harmful effects of cisplatin on the ovary and improve ovarian reserve in rats.

Abstract
Background With the widespread application of platinum drugs in antitumor therapy, the incidence of platinum drug adverse events (ADEs) is always severe. This study aimed to explore the adverse event signals of Cisplatin, Carboplatin and Oxaliplatin, three widely used platinum-containing drugs, and to provide a reference for rational individualized clinical drug use. Methods The adverse event report data of the three platinum drugs from the first quarter of 2017 to the fourth quarter of 2021 were extracted from the FAERS database, and the data mining and risk factors for the relevant reports were carried out using the reporting odds ratio (ROR) method the proportional reporting ratio (PRR)and the comprehensive criteria (MHRA) method. Results A total of 1853 effective adverse event signals were obtained for the three platinum agents, including 558 effective signals for Cisplatin, 896 effective signals for Carboplatin, and 399 effective signals for Oxaliplatin. The signals involve 23 effective different system organs (SOCs). The adverse events of Cisplatin are mainly fixed on blood and lymphatic system diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, systemic diseases and various reactions at the administration site. The adverse events of Carboplatin are mainly focused on blood and lymphatic system diseases, respiratory system, thoracic and mediastinal diseases, while the adverse events of Oxaliplatin are mainly concentrated in respiratory system, thoracic and mediastinal diseases, various nervous system diseases, and gastrointestinal system diseases. Conclusion It was found that the main systems involved in common adverse events of platinum drugs are different, and the correlation strength of platinum drugs with the certain adverse events of each system is different.

Abstract
Ototoxicity is the drug-induced damage of the inner ear, causing bilateral irreversible sensorineural hearing loss. Cisplatin is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent which causes ototoxicity as its side effect. Pretreatment with metformin prior to the application of cisplatin significantly decreased the late apoptosis and attenuated the cisplatin-induced increase in ROS. To understand the molecular mechanisms that are involved in the preventive effect of metformin, we evaluated the change of gene expression induced by cisplatin at several different time points (0 h, 6 h, 15 h, 24 h and 48 h) and the alteration of gene expression according to pretreatment with metformin in HEI-OC1 cells through microarray analysis. Cisplatin exposure induced a total of 89 DEGs (differentially expressed genes) after 6 h, with a total of 433 DEGs after 15 h, a total of 941 DEGs after 24 h, and a total of 2764 DEGs after 48 h. When cells were pretreated with metformin for 24 h, we identified a total of 105 DEGs after 6 h of cisplatin exposure, a total of 257 DEGs after 15 h, a total of 1450 DEGs after 24 h, and a total of 1463 DEGs after 48 h. The analysis was performed based on the gene expression, network analyses, and qRT-PCR, and we identified several genes (CSF2, FOS, JUN, TNFα, NFκB, Txnip, ASK1, TXN2, ATF3, TP53, IL6, and IGF1) as metformin-related preventive biomarkers in cisplatin ototoxicity.

Abstract
Oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy regimens are recommended for patients with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). However, oxaliplatin (OXA) can cause toxic side effects at the recommended dosage. Therefore, it is necessary to find new drug candidates that can synergize with OXA and thereby lower the OXA dose while still maintaining its efficacy. Angelica sinensis is a common drug in traditional Chinese medicine and has demonstrated a significant anti-CRC effect in modern pharmacological studies. The active ingredients in Angelica sinensis can be effectively extracted by a supercritical fluid extract. In this study, the supercritical fluid extract of Angelica sinensis (A-SFE) was obtained by a stable extraction process and was chemically characterized by GC/MS. The anti-cancer effect of A-SFE when applied individually was explored in vitro through MTT, scratch, and Transwell assay. The effect of A-SFE on CRC cells under the influence of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) was explored by a co-culture model. The results showed that A-SFE could inhibit the viability, metastasis, and invasion of HCT116 cells, especially under the influence of TAMs. When 20–100 μg/ml of A-SFE and 8–64 μg/ml of OXA were used in combination in HCT116 cells, synergistic or additive effects were shown in different concentration combinations. The CT26 syngeneic mouse model was used to explore the anti-CRC effect of OXA combined with A-SFE in vivo. The tumor volume, expression levels of Ki67, MMP9, and CD206 in the OXA + A-SFE group were less than those in the OXA group. In conclusion, A-SFE has the potential to become an adjuvant drug for OXA in the treatment of CRC, which provides new strategies for anti-colorectal cancer research.

Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for more than 85% of all lung cancer cases, and chemotherapy-related brain changes (known as "chemobrain") in NSCLC patients were found in previous studies. However, the effects of platinum-based chemotherapy on brain structural networks are still unclear. Structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) data were collected from 32 NSCLC patients following platinum-based chemotherapy, 36 NSCLC patients without chemotherapy, and 39 healthy controls. Clinical physiological indicators of patients were collected. Then, morphological similarity networks were constructed using MRI data, and topological properties were calculated using graph theory method. Differences between three groups were investigated using one-way ANOVA and two-sample t-test, and relations between topological properties and clinical physiological indicators were calculated. We found that degree and nodal efficiency in temporal-parietal networks were significantly reduced in NSCLC patients following platinum-based chemotherapy compared to healthy controls/patients without chemotherapy (F-test, p < 0.001; post hoc t-test, p < 0.01, Bonferroni corrected). These changes (p < 0.05) were positively correlated with clinical measures, including thrombocytes, granulocytes and hemoglobin, and were negatively correlated with measures of triglycerides and cholesterol levels. Network properties including clustering coefficient (F(2,104) = 41.435, p < 0.001), number of K-edges (F(2,104) = 40.304, p < 0.001), density of K-edges (F(2,104) = 40.304, p < 0.001), global efficiency (F(2,104) = 42.585, p < 0.001) and small-world (F(2,104) = 37.132, p < 0.001) were also significantly reduced (post hoc t-test, p < 0.01, Bonferroni corrected). These results indicate that platinum-based chemotherapy might cause cerebrovascular damage and clinical indicators' changes, which then cause the properties of morphological similarity networks' changes in the temporal and parietal lobes. This study may help us better understand the "chemobrain" in NSCLC patients.

Abstract
The survival rate for metastatic osteosarcoma has not improved for several decades, since the introduction and refinement of chemotherapy as a treatment in addition to surgery. Over two thirds of metastatic osteosarcoma patients, many of whom are children or adolescents, fail to exhibit durable responses and succumb to their disease. Concerted efforts have been made to increase survival rates through identification of candidate therapies via animal studies and early phase trials of novel treatments, but unfortunately, this work has produced negligible improvements to the survival rate for metastatic osteosarcoma patients. This review summarizes data from clinical trials of metastatic osteosarcoma therapies as well as pre-clinical studies that report efficacy of novel drugs against metastatic osteosarcoma in vivo. Considerations regarding the design of animal studies and clinical trials to improve survival outcomes for metastatic osteosarcoma patients are also discussed.

Abstract
Gender medicine in the field of oncology is an under-researched area, despite the existing evidence towards gender-dependent response to therapy and treatment-induced adverse effects. Oncological treatment aims to fulfil its main goal of achieving high tumour control by also protecting normal tissue from acute or chronic damage. Chemotherapy is an important component of cancer treatment, with a large number of drugs being currently in clinical use. Cisplatin is one of the most commonly employed chemotherapeutic agents, used either as a sole drug or in combination with other agents. Cisplatin-induced toxicities are well documented, and they include nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity, gastrointestinal toxicity, ototoxicity, just to name the most frequent ones. Some of these toxicities have short-term sequelae, while others are irreversible. Furthermore, research showed that there is a strong gender-dependent aspect of side effects caused by the administration of cisplatin. While evidence towards sex differences in animal models is substantial, clinical studies considering sex/gender as a variable factor are limited. This work summarises the current knowledge on sex/gender-related side effects induced by platinum compounds and highlights the gaps in research that require more attention to open new therapeutic possibilities and preventative measures to alleviate normal tissue toxicity and increase patients' quality of life in both males and females.

Abstract
A series of activated vinyl azoles was hydrophosphinated in the presence of a chiral palladacycle catalyst under mild conditions to give enantioenriched phosphine azoles with moderate enantioselectivities and yields. The racemic phosphine azoles were transformed into eleven novel chelating phosphine-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) platinum complexes. The drug efficacies of nine selected phosphine-NHC platinum(II) chlorides in two cancer cell lines (MKN74 and MCF7) were evaluated, and two were found to exhibit activities comparable to that of cisplatin.

Abstract
Platinum-based antineoplastic agents play a major role in the treatment of numerous types of cancer. A new bulky, lipophilic, and chiral ligand based on 1,2-diaminodiamantane in both of its enantiomeric forms was employed for the preparation of new platinum(ii) complexes with chloride and oxalate ligands. The dichloride complexes have a higher solubility and were evaluated as anti-proliferation agents for human ovarian cancer cell lines A2780 and cisplatin-resistant A2780cis. Its R,R-enantiomer showed increased efficacy compared to cisplatin for both cancer cell lines. A chromatographic approach was used to estimate the solvent partition coefficient of the dichloride complex. The binding of diamondoid-based platinum complexes to nucleotides was tested for both enantiomers with guanosine monophosphate (GMP) and deoxyguanosine monophosphate (dGMP) and occurs at a similar or faster rate for both isomers compared to cisplatin despite greatly increased steric demand. These findings highlight the potential in 1,2-diaminodiamantane as a viable pharmacophore.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neuropathy is a common side effect of chemotherapeutic agents. Manifestations of chemotherapy-induced neuropathy can present in a myriad of fashions, ranging from numbness, tingling, and pain to motor weakness and autonomic dysfunction.1 Given the nature of breast reconstruction, a significant portion of the patients have a history of chemotherapy exposure; its effect on postoperative pain management has not been previously explored. METHODS This study is a retrospective review of patients who underwent deep inferior epigastric perforator flap breast reconstruction performed by the two senior authors from January of 2016 to September of 2019. The patients were separated into two groups, before and after enhanced recovery after surgery. The primary outcome observed was postoperative opioid consumption, measured as oral morphine equivalents; p values were obtained through univariate linear regression. RESULTS In total, 256 patients were analyzed, of which 113 had chemotherapy exposure. The difference between opioid consumption in patients in the pre-enhanced recovery after surgery group without and with chemotherapy exposure was statistically significant (211.5 mg versus 278.5 mg; p = 0.0279). There was no difference between opioid consumption with regard to chemotherapy history in the enhanced recovery after surgery group (137.4 mg versus 133.0 mg; p = 0.7251). CONCLUSIONS Patients with chemotherapy exposure required more opioids to be comfortable. It is unknown whether this difference is secondary to increased pain or less effectiveness of opioids. Further research is necessary to assess whether there are better ways to address pain postoperatively in patients with chemotherapy exposure. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic, III.

Abstract
Achieving a metabolic complete response (mCR) before high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) and autologous peripheral blood stem-cell transplant (auto-PBSCT) predicts progression free survival (PFS) in relapsed/refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R cHL). We added brentuximab vedotin (BV) to DHAP to improve the mCR rate. In a Phase I dose-escalation part in 12 patients, we showed that BV-DHAP is feasible. This Phase II study included 55 R/R cHL patients (23 primary refractory). Treatment consisted of three 21-day cycles of BV 1.8 mg/kg on day 1, and DHAP (dexamethasone 40mg days 1-4, cisplatin 100mg/m2; day 1 and cytarabine 2x2g/m2; day 2). Patients with a metabolic partial response (mPR) or mCR proceeded to HDC/auto-PBSCT. Based on independent central FDG-PET-CT review, 42 of 52 evaluable patients (81% [95% CI: 67-90]) achieved an mCR before HDC/auto-PBSCT, five had an mPR and five had progressive disease (three were not evaluable). After HDC/auto-PBSCT, four patients with an mPR converted to an mCR. The 2-year PFS was 74% [95% CI: 63-86], and the overall survival 95% [95% CI: 90-100]. Toxicity was manageable and mainly consisted of grade 3/4 hematological toxicity, fever, nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity (grade 1/2) and transiently elevated liver enzymes during BV-DHAP. Eighteen patients developed new onset peripheral neuropathy (maximum grade 1/2) and all recovered. In conclusion, BV-DHAP is a very effective salvage regimen in R/R cHL patients, but patients should be monitored closely for toxicity. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02280993.

Use of C. elegans as a 3R-compliant in vivo model for the chemoprevention of cisplatin-induced neurotoxicity. Exp Neurol 2021; 341:113705.

Abstract
Anticancer therapeutics can provoke severe side effects that impair the patient's quality of life. A frequent dose-limiting side effect of platinum-based anticancer therapy is neurotoxicity. Its pathophysiology is poorly understood, and effective preventive or therapeutic measures are missing. Therefore, elucidation of the molecular mechanism of platinating drug-induced neurotoxicity and the development of preventive strategies is urgently needed. To this end, we aim to use C. elegans as a 3R-compliant in vivo model. The 3R principles were conceived for animal welfare in science concerning animal experiments, which should be replaced, reduced or refined. We can analytically demonstrate dose-dependent uptake of cisplatin (CisPt) in C. elegans, as well as genotoxic and cytotoxic effects based on DNA adduct formation (i.e., 1,2-GpG intrastrand crosslinks), induction of apoptosis, and developmental toxicity. Measuring the impairment of pharyngeal pumping as a marker of neurotoxicity, we found that especially CisPt reduces the pumping frequency at concentrations where basal and touch-provoked movement were not yet affected. CisPt causes glutathione (GSH) depletion and RNAi-mediated knockdown of the glutamate-cysteine ligase GCS-1 aggravates the CisPt-induced inhibition of pharyngeal pumping. Moreover, N-acetylcysteine (NAC) mitigated CisPt-triggered toxicity, indicating that GSH depletion contributes to the CisPt-induced pharyngeal damage. In addition to NAC, amifostine (WR1065) also protected the pharynx of C. elegans from the toxic effects of CisPt. Measuring pharyngeal activity by the electrophysiological recording of neurotransmission in the pharynx, we confirmed that CisPt is neurotoxic in C. elegans and that NAC is neuroprotective in the nematode. The data support the hypothesis that monitoring the pharyngeal activity of C. elegans is a useful surrogate marker of CisPt-induced neurotoxicity. In addition, a low GSH pool reduces the resistance of neurons to CisPt treatment, and both NAC and WR1065 are capable of attenuating platinum-induced neurotoxicity during post-incubation in C. elegans. Overall, we propose C. elegans as a 3R-compliant in vivo model to study the molecular mechanisms of platinum-induced neurotoxicity and to explore novel neuroprotective therapeutic strategies to alleviate respective side effects of platinum-based cancer therapy.

Abstract
Background Cisplatin is an important drug in the treatment of various Cancers. However, this drug causes nephrotoxicity that is linked to electrolyte derangement. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of electrolyte supplementation in reducing kidney injury in patients receiving cisplatin-based regimen. Methods This was non-randomized interventional study conducted at Ocean Road Cancer Institute (ORCI) among patients with confirmed solid tumors. Patients who received cisplatin-based chemotherapy at a dose of ≥50 mg with intravenous normal saline supplemented with Magnesium, Calcium and Potassium (triple electrolyte supplementation) were compared with those who received cisplatin-based chemotherapy with normal saline alone. The patients were followed up for 4 weeks and serum creatinine was measured at every visit. Nephrotoxicity was defined as serum creatinine elevation > 1.5 times that at baseline. Results A total of 99 patients were recruited, whereby 49 patients (49.5%) received electrolyte supplementation (treatment group) and 50 patients (51.5%) did not receive electrolyte supplementation (control group). The incidence risk of nephrotoxicity was 20.41% (n = 10) in the treatment group and 54% (n = 27) in the control group. Patients in the control group were 2.6 times more likely to experience nephrotoxicity as compared to treatment group [Relative Risks (RR); 2.6, 95%CI; 1.5–4.9, P < 0.0001]. The most common malignancy was cervical cancer, n = 43 (87.8%) in treatment group and n = 45 (90.0%) in the control group (P = 0.590). The Kaplan-Meier analysis and the log-rank test revealed that electrolytes supplementation was associated with extended survival with less nephrotoxicity incidences [P = 0.0004; Hazard ratio (HR) 0.3149; 95% CI 0.165 to 0.6011]. Conclusions Electrolytes supplementation decreases the risk of nephrotoxicity after chemotherapy with cisplatin. A randomized controlled trial with a larger sample size is recommended to evaluate the robustness of these findings.

Cell Death Dis 2020; 11:342. [PMID: 32393745 PMCID: PMC7214471 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-020-2551-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2019] [Revised: 04/23/2020] [Accepted: 04/23/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Cisplatin is a very effective chemotherapeutic, but severe and permanent hearing loss remains a prevalent side effect. The processes underpinning cisplatin-induced ototoxicity are not well understood. Gap junction channels composed of connexin (Cx) subunits allow for the passage of small molecules and ions between contacting neighboring cells. These specialized channels have been postulated to enhance cisplatin-induced cell death by spreading “death signals” throughout the supporting cells of the organ of Corti. This study sought to investigate the role of Cx43 in cisplatin-induced ototoxicity using organotypic cochlear cultures from control and two Cx43-mutant mouse strains harboring either a moderate (Cx43I130T/+) or severe (Cx43G60S/+) reduction of Cx43 function. Cochlear cultures from Cx43-mutant mice with a severe reduction in Cx43-based gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) had an enhanced number of hair cells that were positive for cleaved caspase 3, a marker of active apoptosis, after cisplatin treatment. In cisplatin-treated organotypic cochlear cultures, there was a decrease in the co-localization of Cx26 and Cx30 compared with untreated cultures, suggesting that cisplatin causes reorganization of connexin composition in supporting cells. Both Cx26 and Cx30 protein expression as well as GJIC were decreased in organotypic cochlear cultures treated with the gap-junction blocker carbenoxolone. When cisplatin and carbenoxolone were co-administered, there were no differences in hair cell loss compared with cisplatin treatment alone. Using cisplatin-treated control and Cx43-ablated organ of Corti derived HEI-OC1 mouse cells, we found that greatly reducing GJIC led to preferential induction of an ER stress pathway. Taken together, this study strongly suggests that inhibition of GJIC in organ of Corti cells does not lead to differential susceptibility to cisplatin-induced ototoxicity. Although cisplatin causes the same degree of cell death in gap junction competent and incompetent cochlear cells, the engagement of the mitochondrial dysregulation and ER stress differs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no clear consensus on the administration of anti-neoplastic agents to patients on peritoneal dialysis. Dose adjustments to prevent serious adverse events are still not established. Thus, the aim of this study was to systematically review current evidence on the use of systemic oncology therapies in peritoneal dialysis. METHODS A systematic review was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane. All relevant data was collected, including clinical and pharmacokinetic parameters, with comparison to subjects with normal renal function. RESULTS Sixteen studies were included. All were case reports. Eighteen types of anti-cancer drugs were reviewed. Multiple adverse events and altered pharmacokinetics were reported. CONCLUSION Data concerning the use of anti-neoplastic drugs in patients on peritoneal dialysis are still sparse. The elimination of anti-cancer agents seems often altered in such patients, resulting in serious adverse events. Based on the available evidence, we suggest the need for dose adjustment of each drug.

Abstract
Platinum-based anticancer drugs, including cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin, nedaplatin, and lobaplatin, are heavily applied in chemotherapy regimens. However, the intrinsic or acquired resistance severely limit the clinical application of platinum-based treatment. The underlying mechanisms are incredibly complicated. Multiple transporters participate in the active transport of platinum-based antitumor agents, and the altered expression level, localization, or activity may severely decrease the cellular platinum accumulation. Detoxification components, which are commonly increasing in resistant tumor cells, can efficiently bind to platinum agents and prevent the formation of platinum–DNA adducts, but the adducts production is the determinant step for the cytotoxicity of platinum-based antitumor agents. Even if adequate adducts have formed, tumor cells still manage to survive through increased DNA repair processes or elevated apoptosis threshold. In addition, autophagy has a profound influence on platinum resistance. This review summarizes the critical participators of platinum resistance mechanisms mentioned above and highlights the most potential therapeutic targets or predicted markers. With a deeper understanding of the underlying resistance mechanisms, new solutions would be produced to extend the clinical application of platinum-based antitumor agents largely.

Abstract
Introduction
Cisplatin damages the auditory system and is related to the generation of free radicals. Glutathione peroxidase is an endogenous free radicals remover.
Objective
To investigate the mechanisms involved in otoprotection by N-acetylcysteine through the expression of glutathione peroxidase in outer hair cells from rats treated with cisplatin.
Methods
Male Wistar rats were intraperitoneally injected with cisplatin (8 mg/Kg) and/or received oral administration by gavage of N-acetylcysteine (300 mg/Kg) for 3 consecutive days. On the 4
th
day, the animals were euthanized and beheaded. The tympanic bullae were removed and prepared for scanning electron microscopy and immunofluorescence.
Results
Among the groups exposed to ototoxic doses of cisplatin, there was an increase in glutathione peroxidase immunostaining in two groups, the one exposed to cisplatin alone, and the group exposed to both cisplatin and N-acetylcysteine.
Conclusion
The expression of glutathione peroxidase in the outer hair cells of rats exposed to cisplatin showed the synthesis of this enzyme under cellular toxicity conditions.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is an adverse effect of chemotherapy that is frequently experienced by patients receiving treatment for cancer. CIPN is caused by many of the most commonly used chemotherapeutic agents, including taxanes, vinca alkaloids, and bortezomib. Pain and sensory abnormalities may persist for months, or even years after the cessation of chemotherapy. The management of CIPN is a significant challenge, as it is not possible to predict which patients will develop symptoms, the timing for the appearance of symptoms can develop anytime during the chemotherapy course, there are no early indications that warrant a reduction in the dosage to halt CIPN progression, and there are no drugs approved to prevent or alleviate CIPN. This review focuses on the etiology of CIPN and will highlight the various approaches developed for prevention and treatment. The goal is to guide studies to identify, test, and standardize approaches for managing CIPN.

Abstract
Background We analyzed the treatment patterns and safety outcomes of the most common first-line platinum-based regimens initiated on or after non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) diagnosis in a real-world setting. Methods Based on a United States oncology electronic medical record (EMR) database, patients treated with first-line platinum-based regimens after advanced NSCLC diagnosis from September 2008 to November 2014 were analyzed. Baseline characteristics and selected adverse events during treatment [incidence proportions and incidence rates (IRs)] were described by regimen. Propensity score stratification was used to adjust for baseline characteristics differences. Hazard ratios (HRs) were estimated using Cox proportional hazards model, with paclitaxel (Pac)/carboplatin (Carbo) as reference. Subgroup analysis was conducted for elderly patients (≥70 years old). Results The most common five regimens for the eligible patients were as follows: Pac/Carbo (n=3,009), pemetrexed (Pem)/Carbo (n=1,625), Pem/Carbo/bevacizumab (Bev) (n=735), Pac/Carbo/Bev (n=531), Pem/cisplatin (Cis) (n=357), and docetaxel (Doc)/Carbo (n=355). Highest IRs were reported for anemia, neutropenia, nausea, and vomiting across these regimens in patients of all ages. After propensity score stratification, compared with Pac/Carbo, risk of anemia was significantly lower with Pac/Carbo/Bev (HR =0.67), Pem/Cis (HR =0.68), and Pem/Carbo/Bev (HR =0.82); risk of neutropenia was comparable among all regimens except Doc/Carbo (significantly lower risk; HR =0.72); and risk of nausea (HR =1.45) and vomiting (HR =1.50) was significantly higher with Pem/Cis. Safety outcomes in elderly patients were consistent with the overall population. Conclusions While EMR data have limitations, the real-world safety outcome with individual chemotherapy regimen could be considered for the better selection of platinum-based therapies in NSCLC.

Abstract
Ototoxicity is the general name of cochlear and vestibular organ injury resulting from encountering various therapeutic agents and chemical substances. Cisplatin is commonly used in the treatment of many cancers. In this study, the efficacy of intratympanic steroids was compared for preventing cisplatin ototoxicity. In this study, 32 (64 ears) rats were used by separating into 4 groups. Cisplatin was administered intraperitoneally to the first group (n = 8). Methylprednisolone and then cisplatin were administered intratympanically to the second group (n = 8). On the third group (n = 8), dexamethasone and then cisplatin were administered intratympanically. To the fourth group (n = 8), 0.9% NaCl and then cisplatin were given intratympanically. Otoacoustic emission (OAE) measurements and auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) tests were performed on all groups before and 72 hours after the procedure. Pretreatment of ABR-IV values were 4.29 ± 0.19 milliseconds in group 2 and 4.27 ± 0.16 milliseconds in group 3, whereas posttreatment ABR-IV values were 4.95 ± 0.35 milliseconds in group 2 and 4.65 ± 0.26 milliseconds in group 3. The ABR-IV values were measured significantly shorter in the rats given dexamethasone and methylprednisolone, according to control and cisplatin groups (P < .001). Pretreatment of ABR I-IV interval values were 2.98 ± 0.34 milliseconds and 3.03 ± 0.42 milliseconds in group 1 and group 4, respectively, and ABR I-IV interval values in group 1 and group 4 posttreatment were 3.49 ± 0.39 milliseconds and 3.5 ± 0.39 milliseconds in group 1 and group 4, respectively. Auditory brainstem responses I-IV interval was significantly longer in the cisplatin and control group than in the rats given dexamethasone and methylprednisolone (P < .001). After cisplatin treatment, OAE amplitudes decreased significantly in group 1 and group 4 for all frequencies, while OAE values were protected in methylprednisolone and dexamethasone group (P < .001). In conclusion, it has been shown that both agents have protective effects on cisplatin ototoxicity, with dexamethasone slightly more than methylprednisolone.

Abstract
Celastrol is a natural bioactive compound extracted from the medicinal plant Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F. It exhibits immunosuppressive, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities. Cisplatin is a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug in the treatment of a wide range of tumors. Although very effective therapeutically, it can cause nephrotoxicity leading to dose reduction or discontinuation of treatment. This study aims to clarify the therapeutic potential of celastrol in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. The possible protective effects of celastrol pretreatment against cisplatin-induced oxidative stress and genotoxicity were investigated. A rat kidney epithelial cell line NRK-52E was pretreated with the desired concentrations of celastrol (200 nM, 100 nM, and 50 nM) for 24 h. The cells were treated with 50 μM cisplatin for a further 24 h to see whether cisplatin caused the same or less toxicity compared to the vehicle control group. Alkaline comet assay was performed for genotoxicity assessment. Genotoxicity evaluation revealed that celastrol caused a statistically significant reduction in DNA damage. Oxidative stress parameters were evaluated by measuring the glutathione (GSH) and protein carbonyl (PC) levels and also by measuring the enzyme activities of glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione reductase (GR), catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymes. Celastrol pretreatment increased the GSH content of the cells and ameliorated the protein carbonylation level. Likewise, celastrol pretreatment improved the GR and CAT activities. However, no significant difference was observed in GPx and SOD activities. In the light of these findings, celastrol treatment could be a therapeutic option to reduce cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. Further studies are needed for the clarification of its therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Aminoglycoside (AG) antibiotics are widely used to prevent life-threatening infections, and cisplatin is used in the treatment of various cancers, but both are ototoxic and result in loss of sensory hair cells from the inner ear. ORC-13661 is a new drug that was derived from PROTO-1, a compound first identified as protective in a large-scale screen utilizing hair cells in the lateral line organs of zebrafish larvae. Here, we demonstrate, in zebrafish larvae and in mouse cochlear cultures, that ORC-13661 provides robust protection of hair cells against both ototoxins, the AGs and cisplatin. ORC-13661 also prevents both hearing loss in a dose-dependent manner in rats treated with amikacin and the loading of neomycin-Texas Red into lateral line hair cells. In addition, patch-clamp recordings in mouse cochlear cultures reveal that ORC-13661 is a high-affinity permeant blocker of the mechanoelectrical transducer (MET) channel in outer hair cells, suggesting that it may reduce the toxicity of AGs by directly competing for entry at the level of the MET channel and of cisplatin by a MET-dependent mechanism. ORC-13661 is therefore a promising and versatile protectant that reversibly blocks the hair cell MET channel and operates across multiple species and toxins. Candidate drug ORC-13661 robustly protects against ototoxicity by aminoglycoside antibiotics and cisplatin by reversibly blocking mechanotransduction of sensory hair cells.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most dominating malignancy in females worldwide. Treatment with conventional chemotherapeutics is associated with severe adverse effects. Thus need of new compounds, with better therapeutic potential and lesser side effects still exist. In this context the present study is planned to investigate therapeutic potential of anti-inflammatory compound N-(2- hydroxyphenyl) acetamide (NA-2) against breast cancer cells (MCF-7). The compound was selected on the basis of its reported anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic and anti-glioblastoma activities in our previous studies. MTT, Annexin-V-FITC and wound healing assays were used to analyze the effect of compound on growth inhibition, apoptosis and metastasis. While flow cytometry, RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry techniques were used to assess the effect of NA-2 on cell cycle arrest, and expression of apoptotic markers (Bax and Bcl-2) at both mRNA and protein level respectively. Data analysis revealed that NA-2 significantly inhibits growth of MCF-7 cells after 48 h treatment (IC50 = 1.65 mM). NA-2 also delayed the wound healing process, arrested cell cycle at G0/G1 phase and induced apoptosis by enhancing Bax/Bcl-2 ratio. We concluded that NA-2 possesses strong anticancer activity against MCF-7 cells, which is mediated through different mechanisms, making it a useful molecule for the development of new antitumor drugs.

Abstract
Current antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) suffer from low tissue penetration and significant side effects, largely due to the permanent linkage and/or premature release of cytotoxic payloads. Herein, we developed a prodrug–antibody conjugate (ProADC) strategy by conjugating a bioorthogonal-activatable prodrug with an antibody that allowed on-target release and on-demand activation of cytotoxic drugs at a tumor site. The bioorthogonal-caged prodrug exhibited an enhanced permeability into and on-demand activation within cancer cells, while the pH-sensitive ADC linker allowed on-target release of the anticancer agent. Together, the ProADCs showed enhanced tumor penetration and alleviated side effects for use as an on-target and on-demand chemotherapy agents.

Abstract
Cisplatin or (SP-4-2)-diamminedichloridoplatinum(II) is one of the most potential and widely used drugs for the treatment of various solid cancers such as testicular, ovarian, head and neck, bladder, lung, cervical cancer, melanoma, lymphomas and several others. Cisplatin exerts anticancer activity via multiple mechanisms but its most acceptable mechanism involves generation of DNA lesions by interacting with purine bases on DNA followed by activation of several signal transduction pathways which finally lead to apoptosis. However, side effects and drug resistance are the two inherent challenges of cisplatin which limit its application and effectiveness. Reduction of drug accumulation inside cancer cells, inactivation of drug by reacting with glutathione and metallothioneins and faster repairing of DNA lesions are responsible for cisplatin resistance. To minimize cisplatin side effects and resistance, combination therapies are used and have proven more effective to defect cancers. This article highlights a systematic description on cisplatin which includes a brief history, synthesis, action mechanism, resistance, uses, side effects and modulation of side effects. It also briefly describes development of platinum drugs from very small cisplatin complex to very large next generation nanocarriers conjugated platinum complexes.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2019; 231:409-428. [PMID: 30439402 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2018.11.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2018] [Revised: 11/06/2018] [Accepted: 11/06/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE In Traditional Oriental Medicine (TOM), the development of hearing pathologies is related to an inadequate nourishment of the ears by the kidney and other organs involved in regulation of bodily fluids and nutrients. Several herbal species have historically been prescribed for promoting the production of bodily fluids or as antiaging agents to treat deficiencies in hearing. AIM OF REVIEW The prevalence of hearing loss has been increasing in the last decade and is projected to grow considerably in the coming years. Recently, several herbal-derived products prescribed in TOM have demonstrated a therapeutic potential for acquired sensorineural hearing loss and tinnitus. Therefore, the aims of this review are to provide a comprehensive overview of the current known efficacy of the herbs used in TOM for preventing different forms of acquired sensorineural hearing loss and tinnitus, and associate the traditional principle with the demonstrated pharmacological mechanisms to establish a solid foundation for directing future research. METHODS The present review collected the literature related to herbs used in TOM or related compounds on hearing from Chinese, Korean, and Japanese herbal classics; library catalogs; and scientific databases (PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar; and Science Direct). RESULTS This review shows that approximately 25 herbal species and 40 active compounds prescribed in TOM for hearing loss and tinnitus have shown in vitro or in vivo beneficial effects for acquired sensorineural hearing loss produced by noise, aging, ototoxic drugs or diabetes. The inner ear is highly vulnerable to ischemia and oxidative damage, where several TOM agents have revealed a direct effect on the auditory system by normalizing the blood supply to the cochlea and increasing the antioxidant defense in sensory hair cells. These strategies have shown a positive impact on maintaining the inner ear potential, sustaining the production of endolymph, reducing the accumulation of toxic and inflammatory substances, preventing sensory cell death and preserving sensory transmission. There are still several herbal species with demonstrated therapeutic efficacy whose mechanisms have not been deeply studied and others that have been traditionally used in hearing loss but have not been tested experimentally. In clinical studies, Ginkgo biloba, Panax ginseng, and Astragalus propinquus have demonstrated to improve hearing thresholds in patients with sensorineural hearing loss and alleviated the symptoms of tinnitus. However, some of these clinical studies have been limited by small sample sizes, lack of an adequate control group or contradictory results. CONCLUSIONS Current therapeutic strategies have proven that the goal of the traditional oriental medicine principle of increasing bodily fluids is a relevant approach for reducing the development of hearing loss by improving microcirculation in the blood-labyrinth barrier and increasing cochlear blood flow. The potential benefits of TOM agents expand to a multi-target approach on different auditory structures of the inner ear related to increased cochlear blood flow, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic and neuroprotective activities. However, more research is required, given the evidence is very limited in terms of the mechanism of action at the preclinical in vivo level and the scarce number of clinical studies published.

Abstract
Mechanosensory hair cells of the inner ear transduce auditory and vestibular sensory input. Hair cells are susceptible to death from a variety of stressors, including treatment with therapeutic drugs that have ototoxic side effects. There is a need for co-therapies to mitigate drug-induced ototoxicity, and we showed previously that induction of heat shock proteins (HSPs) protects against hair cell death and hearing loss caused by aminoglycoside antibiotics in mouse. Here, we utilized the library of integrated cellular signatures (LINCS) to identify perturbagens that induce transcriptional profiles similar to that of heat shock. Massively parallel sequencing of RNA (RNA-Seq) of heat shocked and control mouse utricles provided a heat shock gene expression signature that was used in conjunction with LINCS to identify candidate perturbagens, several of which were known to protect the inner ear. Our data indicate that LINCS is a useful tool to screen for compounds that generate specific gene expression signatures in the inner ear. Forty-two LINCS-identified perturbagens were tested for otoprotection in zebrafish, and three of these were protective. These compounds also induced the heat shock gene expression signature in mouse utricles, and one compound protected against aminoglycoside-induced hair cell death in whole organ cultures of utricles from adult mice.

PARP inhibition in platinum-based chemotherapy: Chemopotentiation and neuroprotection. Pharmacol Res 2018; 137:104-113.

Abstract
Cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplatin represent the backbone of platinum therapy for several malignancies including head and neck, lung, colorectal, ovarian, breast, and genitourinary cancer. However, the efficacy of platinum-based drugs is often compromised by a plethora of severe toxicities including sensory and enteric neuropathy. Acute and chronic neurotoxicity following platinum chemotherapy is a major constraint, contributing to dose-reductions, treatment delays, and cessation of treatment. Identifying drugs that effectively prevent these toxic complications is imperative to improve the efficacy of anti-cancer treatment and patient quality of life. Oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction have been highlighted as key players in the pathophysiology of platinum chemotherapy-induced neuropathy. Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), a nuclear enzyme activated upon DNA damage, has demonstrated substantial sensory and enteric neuroprotective capacity when administered in combination with platinum chemotherapeutics. Furthermore, administration of PARP inhibitors alongside platinum chemotherapy has been found to significantly improve progression-free survival in patients with breast and ovarian cancer when compared to those receiving chemotherapy alone. This review summarises the current knowledge surrounding mitochondrial damage and oxidative stress in platinum chemotherapy-induced neuropathy and highlights a potential role for PARP in chemopotentiation and neuroprotection.

Oncol Lett 2018; 16:4847-4854. [PMID: 30250550 PMCID: PMC6144655 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2018.9289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2016] [Accepted: 05/11/2018] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
A nitroxide radical, Tempol (Tempol, TPL), is usually used as an antioxidative agent clinically, whereas the mechanism underlying its pro-oxidative effect has not been thoroughly investigated. The present study investigated the pro-oxidative effect of TPL on the inhibition of cellular proliferation and its role in enhancing the effect of anticancer drug cisplatin (DDP) on the induction of apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells. Cell viability and proliferation were evaluated by MTT assay. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM) following staining with Annexin V/propidium iodide. Western blot analysis was performed to determine the expression levels of anti-apoptotic protein B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) and pro-apoptotic protein Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), and the Bcl-2:Bax expression ratio. Cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were labeled with dichlorofluorescin-diacetate and analyzed by FCM. The results revealed that cell viabilities of OVCAR3 and SKOV3 cells were decreased by TPL in dose-dependent manner at concentrations of 2 to 10 mM after 48 h incubation. The cell proliferation rates of OVCAR3 and SKOV3 cells were suppressed by TPL at lower toxic concentrations of 1.5 and 1 mM, respectively, compared with the control group. The MTT assay indicated that the combination therapy significantly inhibited the cell proliferation of OVCAR3 cells compared with treatment with DDP alone. FCM demonstrated that the combination treatment increased the proportion of early apoptotic cells in OVCAR3 cells compared with single DDP treatment. Western blot analysis revealed that the combination treatment markedly decreased the Bcl-2:Bax expression ratio compared with treatment with DDP alone. Detection of cellular ROS expression levels demonstrated that the combination therapy significantly increased cellular ROS generation compared with the DDP-only therapy. These data indicated that TPL increased the effect of DDP on inducing apoptosis in OVCAR3 cells.

Thrombin generation and platelet activation in cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy - A prospective cohort study. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0193657.

Abstract
Background and objectives Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal peroperative chemotherapy (HIPEC), indicated for patients with peritoneal metastases from digestive or gynecological malignancies alike, demonstrates a considerable impact on hemostatic metabolism, both on platelet and on coagulation level. The potential hemostatic interference in CRS and HIPEC is phase dependent. The hypothesis of this prospective cohort study is that the procedure exposed an increased thrombotic risk, resulting in a faster and increased thrombin generation and hyper platelet function. Methods This study explores the combined use of ROTEM (rotational thromboelastometry), PACT (platelet activation test) and CAT (thrombin generation test) assays during CRS and HIPEC with a follow-up of 7 days postoperative in 27 patients with confirmed histological diagnosis of peritoneal disease. Results Platelet reactivity (relative to before incision values) to CRP (collagen-related peptide) (p value 0.02) and TRAP (thrombin receptor activator peptide) (p value 0.048) seems to be slightly reduced during CRS and HIPEC with regard to αIIbβ3 activation, while P-selectin expression is not affected. During surgery, CAT demonstrates that, the LT (lagtime) (p value 0.0003) and TTP (time-to-thrombin peak) values (p value 0.002) decrease while and the TP (thrombin peak) (p value 0.004) and ETP (endogenous thrombin potential) (p value 0.02) increase. Subsequently, after surgery, the LT and TTP increase and ETP and TP decrease in time. ROTEM EXTEM (extrinsic) MCF (maximum clot firmness) (p value 0.005), INTEM (intrinsic) MCF (p value 0.003) and FIBTEM (fibrinogen) MCF (p value <0.001) decreased during CRS. At day 7 INTEM and FIBTEM MCF values (p values of 0.004 and <0.001) were significantly higher than before surgery. No considerable changes in platelet count and hemoglobin concentration and absence of leukopenia are noticed. Conclusion This approach detects changes in coagulation much earlier than noticed by standard coagulation tests.

Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 2018; 353:43-54.

Abstract
Cisplatin is an alkylating agent that interferes with DNA replication and kills proliferating carcinogenic cells. Several studies have been conducted to attenuate the side effects of cisplatin; one such side effect in cancer patients undergoing cisplatin chemotherapy is ototoxicity. However, owing to a lack of understanding of the precise mechanism underlying cisplatin-induced side effects, management of cisplatin-induced ototoxicity remains unsolved. We investigated the protective effects of fenofibrate, a PPAR-α activator, on cisplatin-induced ototoxicity. Fenofibrate prevented cisplatin-induced loss of hair cells and improved cell viability; moreover, fenofibrate significantly attenuated the threshold of auditory brainstem responses (ABR) in cisplatin-injected mice. Fenofibrate significantly increased PPAR-α, PPAR-γ, and PGC-1α expression, which consequently resulted in increased number and functional enzyme levels of peroxisomes and mitochondria, and markedly decreased phospho-p53 (S15), activated caspase-3, cleaved-PARP, and NF-κB p65 nuclear translocation, which reduced NADPH oxidase isoform (NOX3 and NOX4) expression, thereby decreasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in cisplatin-treated tissues ex vivo. Taken together, these results indicate that fenofibrate rescues cisplatin-induced ototoxicity by maintaining peroxisome and mitochondria number and function, reducing inflammation, and decreasing ROS levels. Our findings suggest that fenofibrate administration might serve as an effective therapeutic agent against cisplatin-induced ototoxicity.
