ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 349:123949. [PMID: 38636836 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.123949] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 01/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
Arsenic (As) is a heavy metal known for its detrimental effects on the kidneys, but the precise mechanisms underlying its toxicity remain unclear. In this study, we employed an integrated approach combining traditional toxicology methods with functional metabolomics to explore the nephrotoxicity induced by As in mice. Our findings demonstrated that after 28 days of exposure to sodium arsenite, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine levels were significantly increased, and pathological examination of the kidneys revealed dilation of renal tubules and glomerular injury. Additionally, uric acid, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were significant increased while triglyceride level was decreased, resulting in renal insufficiency and lipid disorders. Subsequently, the kidney metabolomics analysis revealed that As exposure disrupted 24 differential metabolites, including 14 up-regulated and 10 down-regulated differential metabolites. Ten metabolic pathways including linoleic acid and glycerophospholipid metabolism were significantly enriched. Then, 80 metabolic targets and 168 predicted targets were identified using metabolite network pharmacology analysis. Of particular importance, potential toxicity targets, such as glycine amidinotransferase, mitochondrial (GATM), and nitric oxide synthase, and endothelial (NOS3), were prioritized through the "metabolite-target-pathway" network. Receiver operating characteristics curve and molecular docking analyses suggested that 1-palmitoyl-2-myristoyl-sn-glycero-3-PC, linoleic acid, and L-hydroxyarginine might be functional metabolites associated with GATM and NOS3. Moreover, targeted verification result showed that the level of linoleic acid in As group was 0.4951 μg/mL, which was significantly decreased compared with the control group. And in vivo and in vitro protein expression experiments confirmed that As exposure inhibited the expression of GATM and NOS3. In conclusion, these results suggest that As-induced renal injury may be associated with the inhibition of linoleic acid metabolism through the down-regulation of GATM and NOS3, resulting in decreased levels of linoleic acid, 1-palmitoyl-2-myristoyl-sn-glycero-3-PC, and L-hydroxyarginine metabolites.

Empagliflozin protective effects against cisplatin-induced acute nephrotoxicity by interfering with oxidative stress and inflammation in Wistar rats. NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2024:10.1007/s00210-024-03088-6. [PMID: 38643451 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-024-03088-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/22/2024]
Abstract
Cisplatin (Cis) is a platinum-based antineoplastic drug used in various types of cancers. This drug can induce nephrotoxicity as a cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) by inducing oxidative stress and inflammation. Empagliflozin (Empa) is a newly developed inhibitor of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) approved as an antidiabetic medication for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. In addition to its blood glucose-lowering effect, Empa has been shown to exert anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties. The current study aimed to investigate the protective effects of Empa on Cis-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Male Wistar albino rats were divided into five groups, each of six rats: Sham group (received vehicle for 7 days), Control group (received vehicle for 7 days and Cis injection on day 2), Cis + Empa10 (received 10mg/kg Empa for 7 days and Cis injection on day 2), Cis + Empa30 (received 30mg/kg Empa for 7 days and Cis injection on day 2) and, Empa 30 (received 30mg/kg Empa for 7 days). One day after the last injection in each group, rats were weighed and then sacrificed to analyze the hematological, biochemical, and histological parameters. Cis markedly increased levels of inflammatory parameters such as renal tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. Notably, malondialdehyde (MDA), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine levels were enhanced after Cis administration. Also, the chemotherapeutic agent significantly reduced antioxidant indicators such as renal catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GpX), and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Furthermore, histopathological examinations also revealed severe renal damage following Cis treatment which was improved by Empa administration. Empa treatment at both doses (10 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg) reversed Cis-induced changes in all the above renal parameters. In conclusion, Empa has protective effects on Cis-induced nephrotoxicity by inhibition of oxidative stress and inflammation.

Abstract
Chronic exposure to elevated levels of pro-oxidant factors may cause structural failings at the mitochondrial DNA level and alteration of antioxidant enzymes (glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase). Oxidative stress is an imbalance between the capacity of endogenous non-enzymatic antioxidants (glutathione, alpha-lipoic acid, uric acid, ferritin, metallothionein, melatonin, and bilirubin) and the occurrence of pro-oxidant factors which may lead to the pathogenesis of various diseases that affects the kidneys, pancreas, central nervous system, and cardiovascular system. Therefore, the utilization of medicinal plants with antioxidant activity, e.g., Angelica keiskei Koidzumi which contains chalcones, is interesting to be explored. Chalcones exhibit direct and indirect antioxidant activity and prevent oxidative stress by decreasing ROS, RNS, and superoxide production. In this review, we discuss the pharmacology activities of A. keiskei Koidzumi and its efficacy in humans. The articles were explored on PubMed and Google Scholar databases and based on the titles and abstracts related to the topic of interest, and 55 articles were selected. Two main chalcones of this plant, 4-hydroxyderricin and xanthoangelol, have been reported for their various pharmacology activities. The efficacy of A. keiskei was confirmed in anti-obesity, hepatoprotective, anti-diabetes mellitus, and increasing plasma antioxidants in patients with metabolic syndrome. A keiskei is safe as proven by only mild or no adverse events reported, thus it is prospective to be further developed as an antioxidant nutraceutical.

Abstract
Cisplatin is widely used for the treatment of various types of cancer. However, cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity (CIN) is frequently observed in patients receiving cisplatin therapy which poses a challenge in its clinical utility. Currently used clinical biomarkers for CIN are not adequate for early detection of nephrotoxicity, hence there is a need to identify potential early biomarkers in predicting CIN. In the current study, a combination of in vitro toxicodynamic (TD) modeling and untargeted global metabolomics approach was used to identify novel potential metabolite biomarkers for early detection of CIN. In addition, we investigated the protective role of cimetidine (CIM), an inhibitor of the organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2), in suppressing CIN. We first characterized the time-course of nephrotoxic effects of cisplatin (CIS) and the protective effects of CIM in a human pseudo-immortalized renal proximal tubule epithelial cell line (RPTEC), SA7K cell line. Secondly, we used a mathematical cell-level, in vitro TD modeling approach to quantitatively characterize the time-course effects of CIS and CIM as single agents and combination in SA7K cells. Based on the experimental and modeling results, we selected relevant concentrations of CIS and CIM for our metabolomics study. With the help of PCA (Principal Component Analysis) and PLS-DA (Projection to Latent Structure - Discriminate Analysis) analyses, we confirmed global metabolome changes for different groups (CIS, CIM, CIS+CIM vs control) in SA7K cells. Based on the criterion of a p-value ≤ 0.05 and a fold change ≥ 2 or ≤ 0.5, we identified 20 top metabolites that were significantly changed during the early phase i.e. within first 12 h of CIS treatment. Finally, pathway analysis was conducted that revealed the key metabolic pathways that were most impacted in CIN.

Abstract
Herein, we explored the protective effect of Leonotis ocymifolia (Burm.f.) Iwarsson aerial parts extract (LO) against cisplatin (CP)-induced nephrotoxicity in rats and profiled their phytocontents. A total of 31 compounds belonging to organic and phenolic acids and their glycosides as well as flavonoids and their O- and C-glycosides were identified through LC-MS/MS. The DPPH and FRAP assays revealed that the extract had powerful antioxidant properties. The in vivo results demonstrated that administering LO extract for 30 days (40 and 80 mg/kg b. w.) significantly improved the altered renal injury markers via reducing creatinine (high dose only) and uric acid levels compared to the Cp-group. The deleterious action of cisplatin on renal oxidative stress markers (GSH, MDA, SOD, and CAT) were also mitigated by LO-pretreatment. The reduction of the inflammatory marker (IL-6), and inhibition of DNA fragmentation, highlighted the prophylactic action of LO in kidney tissue. Molecular docking followed by a 100 ns molecular dynamic simulation analyses revealed that, amongst the 31 identified compounds in LO, chlorogenic and caffeoylmalic acids had the most stable binding to IL-6. The nephroprotective effects were further confirmed by histopathological observations, which showed improvement in ultrastructural changes induced by cisplatin. The observed findings reinforce the conclusion that L. ocymifolia extract exerts nephroprotective properties, which could be related to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Further studies are required to determine the therapeutic doses and the proper administration time.

Brain Behav Immun 2023; 111:169-176.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent that is still commonly used to treat solid tumors. However, it has several toxic side effects due in large part to the mitochondrial damage that it induces. As this mitochondrial damage is likely to result in a decrease in the amount of metabolic energy that is available for behavioral activities, it is not surprising that fatigue develops in cancer patients treated with cisplatin. The present preclinical study was initiated to determine whether the detrimental effects of cisplatin were more pronounced on physical effort requiring a lot of energy versus effort that not only requires less energy but also procures energy in the form of food. For this purpose, mice were either trained to run in a wheel or to work for food in various schedules of food reinforcement before being treated with cisplatin. The experiments were carried out only in male mice as we had already reported that sex differences in cisplatin-induced neurotoxicities are minimal. Cisplatin was administered daily for one cycle of five days, or two cycles separated by a five-day rest. As observed in previous experiments, cisplatin drastically reduced voluntary wheel running. In contrast, when cisplatin was administered to food-restricted mice trained to work for a food reward in a progressive ratio schedule or in a fixed-interval schedule, it tended to increase the number of responses emitted to obtain the food rewards. This increase was not associated with any change in the temporal distribution of responses during the interval between two reinforcements in mice submitted to the fixed interval schedule of food reinforcement. When cisplatin was administered to food-restricted mice trained in an effort-based decision-making task in which they had to choose between working for a grain pellet with little effort and working for a preferred chocolate pellet with more effort, it decreased the total number of responses emitted to obtain food rewards. However, this effect was much less marked than the decrease in wheel running induced by cisplatin. The decrease in the effort invested in the procurement of food rewards was not associated with any change in the relative distribution of effort between low reward and high reward during the time course of the test session. These findings show that cisplatin decreases energy-consuming activities but not energy-procuring activities unless they require a choice between options differing in their cost-benefit ratio. Furthermore, they indicate that the physical dimension of fatigue is more likely to develop in cisplatin-treated individuals than the motivational dimension of fatigue.

Abstract
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial malignant tumor in childhood. Approximately 60% of all patients are classified as high-risk and require intensive treatment including non-selective chemotherapeutic agents leading to severe side effects. Recently, phytochemicals like the natural chalcone cardamonin (CD) have gained attention in cancer research. For the first time, we investigated the selective anti-cancer effects of CD in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells compared to healthy (normal) fibroblasts (NHDF). Our study revealed selective and dose-dependent cytotoxicity of CD in SH-SY5Y. The natural chalcone CD specifically altered the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), as an early marker of apoptosis, in human neuroblastoma cells. Caspase activity was also selectively induced and the amount of cleaved caspase substrates such as PARP was thus increased in human neuroblastoma cells. CD-mediated apoptotic cell death was rescued by pan caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK. The natural chalcone CD selectively induced apoptosis, the programmed cell death, in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells whereas NHDF being a model for normal (healthy) cells were unaffected. Our data indicates a clinical potential of CD in the more selective and less harmful treatment of neuroblastoma.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd), a toxic heavy metal pollutant, is a threat to human and eatable fish health. Common carps are widely cultivated and eaten by humans. However, there are no reports about Cd-damaged common carp hearts. Our experiment attempted to investigate the cardiotoxicity of Cd to common carps by establishing a common carp Cd exposure model. Our results showed that Cd injured hearts. Moreover, Cd treatment induced autophagy via miR-9-5p/Sirt1/mTOR/ULK1 pathway. Cd exposure caused oxidant/antioxidant imbalance and oxidative stress; and led to energetic impairment. Energetic impairment partook in oxidative stress-mediated autophagy through AMPK/mTOR/ULK1 pathway. Furthermore, Cd caused mitochondrial division/fusion imbalance and resulted in inflammatory injury via NF-κB-COX-2-PTGEs and NF-κB-COX-2-TNF-α pathways. Oxidative stress mediated mitochondrial division/fusion imbalance, further induced inflammation and autophagy via OPA1/NF-κB-COX-2-TNF-α-Beclin1 and OPA1/NF-κB-COX-2-TNF-α/P62 pathways under Cd treatment. Taken together, miR-9-5p, oxidative stress, energetic impairment, mitochondrial division/fusion imbalance, inflammation, and autophagy participated in the mechanism of Cd-cardiotoxicity to common carps. Our study revealed harmful effect of Cd on hearts, and provided new information for researches of environmental pollutant toxicity.

Abstract
Cisplatin kills proliferating cells via DNA damage but also has profound effects on post-mitotic cells in tumors, kidneys, and neurons. However, the effects of cisplatin on post-mitotic cells are still poorly understood. Among model systems, C. elegans adults are unique in having completely post-mitotic somatic tissues. The p38 MAPK pathway controls ROS detoxification via SKN-1/NRF and immune responses via ATF-7/ATF2. Here, we show that p38 MAPK pathway mutants are sensitive to cisplatin, but while cisplatin exposure increases ROS levels, skn-1 mutants are resistant. Cisplatin exposure leads to phosphorylation of PMK-1/MAPK and ATF-7 and the IRE-1/TRF-1 signaling module functions upstream of the p38 MAPK pathway to activate signaling. We identify the response proteins whose increased abundance depends on IRE-1/p38 MAPK activity as well as cisplatin exposure. Four of these proteins are necessary for protection from cisplatin toxicity, which is characterized by necrotic death. We conclude that the p38 MAPK pathway-driven proteins are crucial for adult cisplatin resilience.

Cytoprotective remedies for ameliorating nephrotoxicity induced by renal oxidative stress. Life Sci 2023; 318:121466. [PMID: 36773693 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2023.121466] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Revised: 01/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/27/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Nephrotoxicity is the hallmark of anti-neoplastic drug metabolism that causes oxidative stress. External chemical agents and prescription drugs release copious amounts of free radicals originating from molecular oxidation and unless sustainably scavenged, they stimulate membrane lipid peroxidation and disruption of the host antioxidant mechanisms. This review aims to provide a comprehensive collection of potential cytoprotective remedies in surmounting the most difficult aspect of cancer therapy as well as preventing renal oxidative stress by other means. MATERIALS AND METHODS Over 400 published research and review articles spanning several decades were scrutinised to obtain the relevant data which is presented in 3 categories; sources, mechanisms, and mitigation of renal oxidative stress. KEY-FINDINGS Drug and chemical-induced nephrotoxicity commonly manifests as chronic or acute kidney disease, nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosis. Renal replacement therapy requirements and mortalities from end-stage renal disease are set to rapidly increase in the next decade for which 43 different cytoprotective compounds which have the capability to suppress experimental nephrotoxicity are described. SIGNIFICANCE The renal system performs essential homeostatic functions that play a significant role in eliminating toxicants, and its accumulation and recurrence in nephric tissues results in tubular degeneration and subsequent renal impairment. Global statistics of the latest chronic kidney disease prevalence is 13.4 % while the end-stage kidney disease requiring renal replacement therapy is 4-7 million per annum. The remedial compounds discussed herein had proven efficacy against nephrotoxicity manifested consequent to impaired antioxidant mechanisms in preclinical models produced by renal oxidative stress activators.

Abstract
Drug-induced acute kidney injury (DIAKI) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. It remains a diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma due to failure of providing unambiguous real-time feedback on nephrotoxicity, which is regarded as a serious problem in clinics. Herein, we report a reversible fluorescence probe, NRN, to monitor the ONOO-/GSH in an acute kidney injury model. The NRN near-infrared fluorescent probe features a big Stokes shift (83 nm), which was oxidized by ONOO- and reduced by succussive glutathione (GSH) with excellent selectivity and good sensitivity (detection limit: 418 nM and 0.28 mM, respectively). Taking the reversibility of NRN toward ONOO- and GSH, real-time evaluations in vivo with cisplatin (CP) alone and CP combined with acetaminophen-stimulated acute kidney injury and the following remedy process with l-carnitine were realized for the first time. The experiments revealed that acute kidney injury caused by combined drugs might be more serious and irreversible under certain conditions. Therefore, NRN could act as a potential tool for understanding oxidative stress-related DIAKI disease processes.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in men and women in the United States. Recent studies have implicated the tumor microenvironment as a new chemotherapeutic target by demonstrating the importance of tumor cell-stromal interactions in cancer progression. However, the exact mechanisms by which tumor cell-stromal interactions drive lung cancer progression remain undefined, particularly in the lung. We suspect host fibroblasts represent an important component of the tumor microenvironment that drives tumor progression. We found that human non-small cell lung carcinoma cell lines show alterations in cell morphology, proliferation, migration, and colony formation on soft agar when exposed to fibroblast-conditioned media (FCM). Interestingly, FCM also promoted tumor cell resistance to cisplatin-induced apoptosis. These effects varied depending on the cancer cell line used. Similar observations were made when exposing murine Lewis Lung Carcinoma cells to conditioned media harvested from primary murine lung fibroblasts. Certain effects of FCM, but not all, could be prevented by using a cMET inhibitor. In vivo, we observed enhanced growth of the primary tumors when treated with FCM, but no changes in metastatic behavior. Although the identity of the stimulating agent(s) in the fibroblast-conditioned media was not unveiled, further studies revealed that the activity is more than one factor with a high-molecular weight (over 100 kDa). These studies implicate lung fibroblast-derived factors in lung cancer progression. These data suggest that targeting the lung tumor stroma alone, or in combination with other interventions, is a promising concept that warrants further study in the setting of lung cancer.

Notoginsenoside Fc ameliorates renal tubular injury and mitochondrial damage in acetaminophen-induced acute kidney injury partly by regulating SIRT3/SOD2 pathway. Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 9:1055252.

Abstract
Introduction Mitochondria dysfunction is one of the primary causes of tubular injury in acute kidney injury (AKI). Notoginsenoside Fc (Fc), a new saponin isolated from Panax notoginseng, exhibited numerous pharmacological actions. However, the beneficial effects of Fc on renal tubular impairment and mitochondrial dysfunction in AKI have not been fully studied. Methods In this study, we established acetaminophen (APAP)-induced AKI model in mice to examine the therapeutic impacts of Fc on AKI. Results Our results showed that Fc could decrease the levels of the serum creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and Cystatin C in mice with AKI. Fc also ameliorated renal histopathology, renal tubular cells apoptosis and restored expression of apoptosis-related proteins such as Bax, Bcl-2 and caspase3 (C-caspase3). Additionally, Fc increased the protein expression of SIRT3 and SOD2 in kidneys from mice with AKI. In vitro studies further showed Fc reduced the apoptosis of HK-2 cells exposure to APAP, attenuated the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and decreased the formation of mitochondrial superoxide. Fc also partly restored the protein expression of Bax, Bcl-2, C-Caspase3, SIRT3, and SOD2 in HK-2 cells exposure to APAP. Conclusion In summary, Fc might reduce renal tubular injury and mitochondrial dysfunction in AKI partly through the regulation of SIRT3/SOD2 pathway.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a potent chemotherapeutic drug that is widely used in the treatment of various solid cancers. However, its clinical effectiveness is strongly limited by frequent severe adverse effects, in particular nephrotoxicity and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Thus, there is an urgent medical need to identify novel strategies that limit cisplatin-induced toxicity. In the present study, we show that the FDA-approved adenosine A2A receptor antagonist istradefylline (KW6002) protected from cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity and neuropathic pain in mice with or without tumors. Moreover, we also demonstrate that the antitumoral properties of cisplatin were not altered by istradefylline in tumor-bearing mice and could even be potentiated. Altogether, our results support the use of istradefylline as a valuable preventive approach for the clinical management of patients undergoing cisplatin treatment.

Life (Basel) 2022; 12:1819.

Abstract
(Background and Objectives): Renal ischemia perfusion injury is one of the major issues in kidney transplant. The aim of the study was to investigate the hypothesis that prophylactic treatment-with a hydrogen sulphide donor to an acute renal failure case of hypertensive rats-can minimize the ischemia reperfusion injury of the kidney which is beneficial for kidney transplant. To check this hypothesis, the present study was designed to investigate the effect of chronic administration of a hydrogen sulphide (H2S) donor and sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) on nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) and inter cellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) concentration in non-renal failure (NRF) and acute renal failure (ARF) rats in the ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) model of the kidney in both normotensive WKY and hypertensive rats (L-nitro arginine methyl ester (L-NAME-induced); (Materials and Methods): A total number of 48 Sprague-Dawley rats were recruited into eight groups each consisting of six animals. Each of these eight groups was used to measure systemic and renal parameters, H2S, antioxidant parameters in plasma, plasma concentration of NF-kB and ICAM-1 and renal cortical blood pressure. ARF was induced by single intraperitoneal (i.p.) cisplatin injection (5 mg/kg). Hypertension was induced by oral administration of L-NAME in drinking water for four weeks at 40 mg/kg/day. NaHS was administered (i.p) at 56 µmol/kg for five weeks while dL-propargylglycine (PAG), a H2S generation inhibitor, was administered as a single intra-peritoneal injection (50 mg/kg). An acute surgical experiment was performed for the induction of renal ischemia for 30 min by renal artery clamping followed by reperfusion for three hours; (Results): Chronic administration of NaHS attenuated the severity of ARF in both normotensive and hypertensive animals (L-NAME) along with lowering the blood pressure in hypertensive groups. NaHS improved the oxidative stress parameters such as total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD), glutathione (GSH) and reduced the malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration along with reduction of NF-kB and ICAM-1 following renal IRI; Conclusions: These findings demonstrate that H2S not only reduced the severity of cisplatin induced ARF but also reduced the severity of renal IRI by upregulating antioxidants along with decreased concentrations of NF-kB and ICAM-1 in normotensive and L-NAME induced hypertensive rats.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The morbidity of oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) is continuing to rise in numerous developed countries. An accurate prognostic assessment is needed to evaluate the malignant degree or risk classification to optimize treatment. Albumin (ALB) as an independent prognostic indicator of cancer survival has been established in previous studies. This study investigated the prognostic value of pre-treatment serum ALB in OPC patients. METHODS The clinicopathological data of 246 patients diagnosed with OPC from 2010 to 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. Analyze the relationship between ALB and clinicopathological characteristics of patients. The optimal cut-off values for ALB were determined via Cutoff Finder (Method for cutoff determination: Survival: significance (log-rank test)). To determine the independent prognostic factors, the Cox proportional hazards model was used to perform univariate and multivariate analyses of the serum ALB levels related to overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS The optimal cut-off point for ALB was 39.15 g/L determined via Cutoff Finder. Serum ALB levels were significantly associated with age (P=0.047), Presence of comorbidity (P=0.009), Charlson score index (P=0.007), Hemoglobin (P<0.001), Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio (P=0.002), Albumin-To-Alkaline Phosphatase Ratio (P<0.001), Alkaline phosphatase (P=0.005), T stage (P=0.016), and HPV status (P=0.002). In the univariate and multivariate analyses, ALB was found to be an independent prognostic indicator for DFS (HR =0.39, 95% CI:0.23-0.66, P=0.000) and OS (HR =0.46, 95% CI: 0.25-0.83, P=0.01) in OPC patients. CONCLUSIONS Pre-treatment serum ALB could serve as a valuable prognostic biomarker for the prognostic stratification of OPC patients.

Abstract
Cisplatin (CDDP) has been widely used in cancer therapy, but it has been linked to side effects such as nephrotoxicity. Crocin is a carotenoid found in crocus and gardenia flowers that has been shown to have anti-oxidant properties, inhibit tumor growth, and provide neuroprotection. The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effect of crocin against CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity in a mouse model. Kunming mice were administered orally with crocin for 7 days at the dose of 6.25 mg/kg and 12.5 mg/kg per body weight daily and were injected with CDDP via intraperitoneal route at the dose of 10 mg/kg per body weight. Using commercial kits, the oxidative stress markers glutathione, malondialdehyde, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase were measured in the kidneys of mice. Immunohistochemistry was used to assess the levels of p53, cleaved caspase-3, and phospho-p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase in the kidneys. Crocin significantly reduced CDDP-induced changes in serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels, according to the findings. Crocin reduced malondialdehyde levels and increased glutathione, glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase levels in CDDP-induced lipid peroxidation. Crocin also significantly inhibited p38 mitogenactivated protein kinase activation, p53 expression, and caspase-3 cleavage. In conclusion, crocin protects against CDDP-induced oxidative stress and nephrotoxicity by attenuating the activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and caspase-3 cleavage.

Bone-Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells, Their Conditioned Media, and Olive Leaf Extract Protect against Cisplatin-Induced Toxicity by Alleviating Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Apoptosis in Rats. TOXICS 2022; 10:toxics10090526. [PMID: 36136492 PMCID: PMC9504158 DOI: 10.3390/toxics10090526] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Revised: 08/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/01/2022] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic and renal damage is a cisplatin (Cis)-induced deleterious effect that is a major limiting factor in clinical chemotherapy. OBJECTIVES The current study was designed to investigate the influence of pretreatment with olive leaf extract (OLE), bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC), and their conditioned media (CM-MSC) against genotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and immunotoxicity induced by cisplatin in rats. METHODS The rats were randomly divided into six groups (six rats each) as follows: Control; OLE group, treated with OLE; Cis group, treated with a single intraperitoneal dose of Cis (7 mg/kg bw); Cis + OLE group, treated with OLE and cisplatin; Cis + CM-MSC group, treated with BM-MSC conditioned media and Cis; and Cis + MSC group, treated with BM-MSC in addition to Cis. RESULTS Cis resulted in a significant deterioration in hepatic and renal functions and histological structures. Furthermore, it increased inflammatory markers (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and decreased glutathione (GSH) content, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), catalase (CAT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in hepatic and renal tissues. Furthermore, apoptosis was evident in rat tissues. A significant increase in serum 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG), nitric oxide (NO) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and a decrease in lysozyme activity were detected in Cis-treated rats. OLE, CM-MSC, and BM-MSC have significantly ameliorated Cis-induced deterioration in hepatic and renal structure and function and improved oxidative stress and inflammatory markers, with preference to BM-MSC. Moreover, apoptosis was significantly inhibited, evident from the decreased expression of Bax and caspase-3 genes and upregulation of Bcl-2 proteins in protective groups as compared to Cis group. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicate that BM-MSC, CM-MSC, and OLE have beneficial effects in ameliorating cisplatin-induced oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in the hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, immunotoxicity, and genotoxicity in a rat model.

Abstract
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products are emerging environmental pollutants. Cisplatin, one of the most widely used platinum-based chemotherapeutic agents, has been found to contaminate aquatic environments. Using zebrafish embryos as a model, cisplatin was previously found to impair skin ionocytes and ion regulation. The purpose of this study was to further investigate how cisplatin damages ionocytes. Zebrafish embryos were exposed to cisplatin (0, 50, and 100 μM) for 96 h (4-100 h post-fertilization) and then stained with fluorescent dyes to reveal mitochondrial activity (rhodamine123), apoptosis (acridine orange), and oxidative stress (CellROX/MitoSOX) in ionocytes of living embryos. Results showed that cisplatin exposure decreased rhodamine 123-labeled ionocytes, induced oxidative stress in ionocytes, and promoted apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner. Quantitative PCR analysis showed that mRNA levels of antioxidative genes (sod1, sod2, gpx1a, and cat) and an apoptotic gene (caps3a) were induced. In the time-course experiment at 96-98 h post-fertilization, cisplatin increased oxidative stress and apoptosis in ionocytes in a time-dependent manner. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that cisplatin exposure induces oxidative stress, mitochondrial damage, and apoptosis in ionocytes of zebrafish embryos.

Abstract
Cisplatin is an important chemotherapeutic drug for the treatment of solid tumors but often causes nephropathy as part of the off-target toxicity. Iron accumulation and related damage were implicated in cisplatin-induced kidney injury. However, the role of cisplatin in the renal iron sensing mechanism and its target genes responsible for iron uptake, storage, and release have not been investigated. Cellular iron homeostasis is controlled by the interaction of iron regulatory proteins (IRP1 and IRP2) and iron-responsive elements (IREs) present in the untranslated regions of iron transport and storage components. Here, we report that cisplatin does not influence the expressions of IRP targets such as transferrin receptor-1 (TfR1), divalent metal transporter-1 (DMT1), and ferroportin in renal cells despite the increased heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) level. Ferritin subunits (Ft-H and Ft-L) are elevated in different magnitudes due to the increased mRNA expression. Intriguingly, a higher expression of Ft-L mRNA is detected than that of Ft-H mRNA. The inability of cisplatin in altering the IRE-IRP interaction is confirmed by examining IRE-containing luciferase activity, RNA electrophoretic mobility shift assay, and activation of IRPs. The labile iron pool is depleted but reversed by silencing of either Ft-H or Ft-L, suggesting increased iron storage by ferritin. Silencing of Ft-H or Ft-L promotes cell death, suggesting that ferritin acts to protect the renal cells from cisplatin-mediated toxicity. A differential increase of transcripts and equivalent increase of proteins of Ft-H and Ft-L and unaltered TfR1 and DMT1 transcripts are found in the kidneys of cisplatin-treated rats along with iron accumulation. Our results reveal that cisplatin does not influence the IRE-IRP interaction despite alteration of the cellular iron pool in renal cells. This insensitivity of the IRE-IRP system may be implicated in the accumulation of iron to contribute to cisplatin-induced nephropathy.

Abstract
Cisplatin is an effective antineoplastic agent, but its use is limited by its nephrotoxicity caused by the oxidative stress in tubular epithelium of nephrons. On the other hand, regular exercise provides beneficial adaptations in different tissues and organs. As with many drugs, dosing is extremely important to get the beneficial effects of exercise. Thus, we aimed to investigate the influence of exercise intensity and frequency on cisplatin-induced (20 mg/kg) renal damage in mice. Forty male Swiss mice were divided into five experimental groups (n=8 per group): 1) sedentary; 2) low-intensity forced swimming, three times per week; 3) high-intensity forced swimming, three times per week; 4) low-intensity forced swimming, five times per week; and 5) high-intensity forced swimming, five times per week. Body composition, renal structure, functional indicators (plasma urea), lipid peroxidation, antioxidant enzyme activity, expression of genes related to antioxidant defense, and inflammatory and apoptotic pathways were evaluated. Comparisons considered exercise intensity and frequency. High lipid peroxidation was observed in the sedentary group compared with trained mice, regardless of exercise intensity and frequency. Groups that trained three times per week showed more benefits, as reduced tubular necrosis, plasma urea, expression of CASP3 and Rela (NFkB subunit-p65) genes, and increased total glutathione peroxidase activity. No significant difference in Nfe2l2 (Nrf2) gene expression was observed between groups. Eight weeks of regular exercise training promoted nephroprotection against cisplatin-mediated oxidative injury. Exercise frequency was critical for nephroprotection.

Abstract
Cisplatin is an FDA approved anti-cancer drug that is widely used for the treatment of a variety of solid tumors. However, the severe adverse effects of cisplatin, particularly kidney toxicity, restrict its clinical and medication applications. The major mechanisms of cisplatin-induced renal toxicity involve oxidative stress, inflammation, and renal fibrosis, which are covered in this short review. In particular, we review the underlying mechanisms of cisplatin kidney injury in the context of NAD+-dependent redox enzymes including mitochondrial complex I, NAD kinase, CD38, sirtuins, poly-ADP ribosylase polymerase, and nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase (NNT) and their potential contributing roles in the amelioration of cisplatin-induced kidney injury conferred by natural products derived from plants. We also cover general procedures used to create animal models of cisplatin-induced kidney injury involving mice and rats. We highlight the fact that more studies will be needed to dissect the role of each NAD+-dependent redox enzyme and its involvement in modulating cisplatin-induced kidney injury, in conjunction with intensive research in NAD+ redox biology and the protective effects of natural products against cisplatin-induced kidney injury.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to determine whether vitamin C has a protective effect on cisplatin-induced neuropathy in rats. METHODS: In total, 24 rats were included in the study of which 8 rats (no drug administered) were categorized as the control group. The remaining 16 rats were given a total dose of 20 mg/kg cisplatin to induce neuropathy. These drug-administered rats (16 rats) were randomly divided into two groups, namely, group-1 (n=8): cisplatin+saline and group-2 (n=8): cisplatin+vitamin C (500 mg/kg/day). All rats were tested for motor function and electromyographic activity 3 days after cisplatin. Motor performance was evaluated by an inclined-plane test. Compound muscle action potential was evaluated. Plasma malondialdehyde, glutathione, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin 6, and sciatic nerve HSP 70 levels were measured. Axon diameter and nerve growth factor expression levels were analyzed. RESULTS: Plasma malondialdehyde, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin 6 levels were higher in the cisplatin+saline group than control group (p<0.001). But vitamin C significantly reduced malondialdehyde and inflammatory cytokine levels when compared with the cisplatin+saline group (p<0.001). Glutathione levels were lower in both cisplatin+saline and cisplatin+vitamin C groups than control group, but vitamin C significantly ameliorated the glutathione levels (p<0.05). Sciatic heat shock protein-70 levels were significantly higher in the cisplatin+vitamin C group than cisplatin+saline group. Compound muscle action potential amplitude and inclined plane test scores were significantly improved in the vitamin C group (p<0.05). Axon diameter and nerve growth factor expression ameliorated with vitamin C (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated the ameliorated effects of vitamin C on cisplatin-induced neuropathy through increased heat shock protein-70, nerve growth factor levels, and reduced inflammatory and oxidant effects. The results are promising to improve the neurotoxic effects of cisplatin in cancer patients.

Abstract
Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) is a multicomponent complex with methyltransferase activity that catalyzes trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me3). Interaction of the epigenetic reader protein EED with EZH2, a catalytic unit of PRC, allosterically stimulates PRC2 activity. In this study, we investigated the role and underlying mechanism of the PRC2 in acute kidney injury (AKI) by using EED226, a highly selective PRC2 inhibitor, to target EED. Administration of EED226 improved renal function, attenuated renal pathological changes, and reduced renal tubular cell apoptosis in a murine model of cisplatin‐induced AKI. In cultured renal epithelial cells, treatment with either EED226 or EED siRNA also ameliorated cisplatin‐induced apoptosis. Mechanistically, EED226 treatment inhibited cisplatin‐induced phosphorylation of p53 and FOXO3a, two transcriptional factors contributing to apoptosis, and preserved expression of Sirtuin 3 and PGC1α, two proteins associated with mitochondrial protection in vivo and in vitro. EED226 was also effective in enhancing renal tubular cell proliferation, suppressing expression of multiple inflammatory cytokines, and reducing infiltration of macrophages to the injured kidney. These data suggest that inhibition of the PRC2 activity by targeting EED can protect against cisplatin‐induced AKI by promoting the survival and proliferation of renal tubular cells and inhibiting inflammatory response.

Abstract
Cisplatin is one of the most active chemotherapy drugs to treat solid tumors. However, it also causes various side effects, especially nephrotoxicity, in which oxidative stress plays critical roles. Our previous studies found that cisplatin selectively inhibited selenoenzyme thioredoxin reductase1 (TrxR1) in the kidney at an early stage and, subsequently, induced the activation of Nrf2. However, the effects of selenium on cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity are still unclear. In this study, we established mice models with different selenium intake levels to explore the effects of selenoenzyme activity changes on cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. Results showed that feeding with a selenium-deficient diet sensitize the mice to cisplatin-induced damage, whereas selenium supplementation increased the activities of selenoenzymes TrxR and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), changed the renal cellular redox environment to a reduced state, and exhibited protective effects. These results demonstrated the correlation of selenoenzymes with cisplatin-induced side effects and provided a basis for the potential approach to alleviate cisplatin-induced renal injury.

Abstract
Obesity affects acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by various clinical settings, including transplantation and cisplatin-cancer therapy. However, the effect of short-term food intake change remains to be defined. Here, we investigated the effects of short-term high-fat diet intake and food restriction on cisplatin-induced AKI. Mice were fed either a high-fat diet (HFD) or a low-fat diet (LFD) for 11 days or were not fed for 40 hh (fasting), before cisplatin administration. Cisplatin-induced functional and structural damages to kidneys in both HFD- and LFD-fed mice, with greater damages in HFD-fed mice than LFD-fed mice. HFD decreased mitochondrial total glutathione (tGSH) level, along with increases in the plasma and kidney cholesterol levels. Cisplatin caused the increase of kidney cholesterol levels and oxidative stress, along with the decrease of mitochondrial tGSH levels. In addition, cisplatin-induced mitochondrial damage and apoptosis of tubular cells in both HFD- and LFD-fed mice. An increase of Fis1 (mitochondria fission 1 protein), whereas a decrease of Opa1 (mitochondria fusion 1 protein) occurred by cisplatin. These cisplatin effects were greater in HFD-fed mice than in LFD-fed mice. Administration of mitochondria-specific antioxidant treatment during HFD feeding inhibited these cisplatin-induced changes. Fasting for 40 h also significantly reduced the cisplatin-induced changes mentioned above. These data demonstrate that short-term HFD intake worsens cisplatin-induced oxidative stress by the reduction of mitochondrial tGSH, resulting in increased cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. These data newly indicate that the control of calorie intake, even for a short period, affects kidney susceptibility to injury. Although most studies described the effects of a long-term high-fat diet on the kidneys, in this study, we found that even if a high-fat diet was consumed for a short-term, physiological changes and mitochondria tGSH decrease in the kidneys, and consequently increased cisplatin-nephrotoxic susceptibility. These data suggest the association of calorie intake with kidney susceptibility to cisplatin.

ROS-Related miRNAs Regulate Immune Response and Chemoradiotherapy Sensitivity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma by Comprehensive Analysis and Experiment. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:4713518. [PMID: 35585886 PMCID: PMC9110211 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4713518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2021] [Accepted: 04/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays an essential role in the development of cancer. Here, we chose ROS-related miRNAs for consensus clustering analysis and ROS score construction. We find that ROS is extremely associated with prognosis, tumor immune microenvironment (TIME), gene mutations, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation, and chemotherapy sensitivity in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Mechanistically, ROS may affect the prognosis of HCC patients in numerous ways. Moreover, miR-210-3p and miR-106a-5p significantly increased the ROS level and stagnated cell cycle at G2/M in HCC; the results were more obvious in cells after ionizing radiation (IR). Finally, the two miRNAs suppressed cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and promoted apoptosis in huh7 and smmc7721 cells. It indicated that ROS might affect the prognosis of HCC patients through immune response and increase the sensitivity of HCC patients to radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Metabolic Profiling, Chemical Composition, Antioxidant Capacity, and In Vivo Hepato- and Nephroprotective Effects of Sonchus cornutus in Mice Exposed to Cisplatin. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11050819. [PMID: 35624682 PMCID: PMC9137627 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11050819] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2022] [Revised: 04/18/2022] [Accepted: 04/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Sonchus cornutus (Asteraceae) is a wild. edible plant that represents a plentiful source of polyphenolic compounds. For the first time, the metabolic analysis profiling demonstrated the presence of anthocyanidin glycosides, coumarins, flavonoids and their corresponding glycosides, and phenolic acids. The total phenolic compounds were determined to be 206.28 ± 14.64 mg gallic acid equivalent/gm, while flavonoids were determined to be 45.56 ± 1.78 mg quercetin equivalent/gm. The crude extract of S. cornutus exhibited a significant 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging effect with half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 16.10 ± 2.14 µg/mL compared to ascorbic acid as a standard (10.64 ± 0.82 µg/mL). In vitro total antioxidant capacity and ferric reducing power capacity assays revealed a promising reducing potential of S. cornutus extract. Therefore, the possible protective effects of S. cornutus against hepatic and renal toxicity induced by cisplatin in experimental mice were investigated. S. cornutus significantly ameliorated the cisplatin-induced disturbances in liver and kidney functions and oxidative stress, decreased MDA, ROS, and NO levels, and restored CAT and SOD activities. Besides, it reversed cisplatin-driven upregulation in inflammatory markers, including iNOS, IL-6, and IL-1β levels and NF-κB and TNF-α expression, and elevated anti-inflammatory IL-10 levels and Nrf2 expression. Additionally, the extract mitigated cisplatin alteration in apoptotic (Bax and caspase-3) and anti-apoptotic (Bcl-2) proteins. Interestingly, hepatic, and renal histopathology revealed the protective impacts of S. cornutus against cisplatin-induced pathological changes. Our findings guarantee a protective effect of S. cornutus against cisplatin-induced hepatic and renal damage via modulating oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptotic pathways.

Abstract
Major obstacles in current breast cancer treatment efficacy include the ability of breast cancer cells to develop resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs and the off-target cytotoxicity of these drugs on normal cells, leading to debilitating side effects. One major difference between cancer and normal cells is their metabolism, as cancer cells acquire glycolytic and mitochondrial metabolism alterations throughout tumorigenesis. In this study, we sought to exploit this metabolic difference by investigating alternative breast cancer treatment options based on the application of phytochemicals. Herein, we investigated three phytochemicals, namely cinnamaldehyde (CA), chlorogenic acid (CGA), and arctigenin (Arc), regarding their anti-breast-cancer properties. These phytochemicals were administered alone or in combination to MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and HCC1419 breast cancer or normal MCF-10A and MCF-12F breast cells. Overall, our results indicated that the combination treatments showed stronger inhibitory effects on breast cancer cells versus single treatments. However, only treatments with CA (35 μM), CGA (250 μg/mL), and the combination of CA + CGA (35 μM + 250 μg/mL) showed no significant cytotoxic effects on normal mammary epithelial cells, suggesting that Arc was the driver of normal cell cytotoxicity in all other treatments. CA + CGA and, to a lesser extent, CGA alone effectively induced breast cancer cell death accompanied by decreases in mitochondrial membrane potential, increased mitochondrial superoxide, reduced mitochondrial and glycolytic ATP production, and led to significant changes in cellular and mitochondrial morphology. Altogether, the combination of CA + CGA was determined as the best anti-breast-cancer treatment strategy due to its strong anti-breast-cancer effects without strong adverse effects on normal mammary epithelial cells. This study provides evidence that targeting the mitochondria may be an effective anticancer treatment, and that using phytochemicals or combinations thereof offers new approaches in treating breast cancer that significantly reduce off-target effects on normal cells.

Novel Pomegranate-Nanoparticles Ameliorate Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity and Improves Cisplatin Anti-Cancer Efficacy in Ehrlich Carcinoma Mice Model. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27051605. [PMID: 35268707 PMCID: PMC8912068 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27051605] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2022] [Revised: 02/06/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Cisplatin (CISP) is one of the most widely used anti-cancer chemotherapeutic agents with remarkable efficacy against various types of cancers. However, it has been associated with nephrotoxicity amongst other undesirable side effects. Pomegranate (PE) is a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent effective against cancer, with a superior benefit of not being associated with the common toxicities related to the use of conventional chemotherapeutic agents. However, the application of PE is limited by its reduced solubility and decreased bioavailability. We investigated the potential of a novel nanoparticle (NP) enclosing PE to enhance its solubility and improve its bioavailability, and efficacy to prevent CISP-associated nephrotoxicity in a mice model of Ehrlich solid carcinoma (ESC). All mice were grouped into four cohorts: (I) control, (II) tumor, (III) CISP, and (IV) CISP + PE-NPs. The data obtained demonstrated that PE-NPs was beneficial in potently ameliorating CISP-induced nephrotoxicity in ESC mice. PE-NPs significantly attenuated CISP-induced oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation in the kidney via improving activities of antioxidants (SOD, GSH, and CAT). Additionally, PE-NPs considerably decreased CISP-induced inflammation in the kidney by decreasing the levels of NF-kB, IL-1β, and TNF-α. Notably, PE-NPs did not assuage the antitumor efficacy of CISP as revealed by histological assessment and tumor weight data. In summary, PE-NPs may be a potent alternative anticancer therapy devoid of nephrotoxicity.

Age-Related Mitochondrial Impairment and Renal Injury Is Ameliorated by Sulforaphane via Activation of Transcription Factor NRF2. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11010156.

Abstract
Age is one of the major risk factors for the development of chronic pathologies, including kidney diseases. Oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction play a pathogenic role in aging kidney disease. Transcription factor NRF2, a master regulator of redox homeostasis, is altered during aging, but the exact implications of altered NRF2 signaling on age-related renal mitochondrial impairment are not yet clear. Herein, we investigated the role of sulforaphane, a well-known NRF2 activator, on age-related mitochondrial and kidney dysfunction. Young (2–4 month) and aged (20–24 month) male Fischer 344 rats were treated with sulforaphane (15 mg/kg body wt/day) in drinking water for four weeks. We observed significant impairment in renal cortical mitochondrial function along with perturbed redox homeostasis, decreased kidney function and marked impairment in NRF2 signaling in aged Fischer 344 rats. Sulforaphane significantly improved mitochondrial function and ameliorated kidney injury by increasing cortical NRF2 expression and activity and decreasing protein expression of KEAP1, an NRF2 repressor. Sulforaphane treatment did not affect the renal NRF2 expression or activity and mitochondrial function in young rats. Taken together, our results provide novel insights into the protective role of the NRF2 pathway in kidneys during aging and highlight the therapeutic potential of sulforaphane in mitigating kidney dysfunction in elders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gentamicin (GM) is a low-cost, low-resistance antibiotic commonly used to treat gram-negative bacterial diseases. Cisplatin (Csp) is a platinum-derived anti-neoplastic agent. This experiment aimed to identify the early signs of gentamicin and cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Thirty Wistar rats were divided into three groups of 10: a control group, which received no treatment; a gentamicin group administered by a dose of (100 mg/kg, IP) for 7 consecutive days, and a cisplatin group was administered intraperitoneal in a dose of (1.5 mg/kg body weight) repeated twice a week for 3 weeks. RESULTS Both experimental groups exhibited increased levels of creatinine, urea, and uric acid, with the cisplatin-treated group showing higher levels than the gentamicin group. Experimental groups also exhibited significantly increased Malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) with more pronounced effects in the cisplatin-treated group. Further, both experimental groups exhibited significant up-regulation of Tumor Necrosis Factor α (TNF-α), caspase-3, and Bax and down regulation of Bcl-2. CONCLUSION These findings confirm the use of necrotic, apoptotic genes as early biomarkers in the detection of tubular kidney damage. Further, cisplatin was shown to have a greater nephrotoxic effect than gentamicin; therefore, its use should be constrained accordingly when co-administered with gentamicin.

Abstract
Although inflammation and fibrosis, which are key mechanisms of chronic kidney disease, are associated with mitochondrial damage, little is known about the effects of mitochondrial damage on the collecting duct in renal inflammation and fibrosis. To generate collecting duct-specific mitochondrial injury mouse models, CR6-interacting factor-1 (CRIF1) flox/flox mice were bred with Hoxb7-Cre mice. We evaluated the phenotype of these mice. To evaluate the effects on unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO)-induced renal injury, we divided the mice into the following four groups: a CRIF1flox/flox (wild-type (WT)) group, a CRIF1flox/flox-Hob7 Cre (CRIF1-KO) group, a WT-UUO group, and a CRIF1-KO UUO group. We evaluated the blood and urine chemistries, inflammatory and fibrosis markers, light microscopy, and electron microscopy of the kidneys. The inhibition of Crif1 mRNA in mIMCD cells reduced oxygen consumption and membrane potential. No significant differences in blood and urine chemistries were observed between WT and CRIF1-KO mice. In UUO mice, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and osteopontin expression, number of F4/80 positive cells, transforming growth factor-β and α-smooth muscle actin staining, and Masson's trichrome staining were significantly higher in the kidneys of CRIF1-KO mice compared with the kidneys of WT mice. In sham mice, urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHDG) was higher in CRIF1-KO mice than in WT mice. Moreover, CRIF1-KO sham mice had increased 8-OHDG-positive cell recruitment compared with WT-sham mice. CRIF1-KO-UUO kidneys had increased recruitment of 8-OHDG-positive cells compared with WT-UUO kidneys. In conclusion, collecting duct-specific mitochondrial injury increased oxidative stress. Oxidative stress associated with mitochondrial damage may aggravate UUO-induced renal injury.

Abstract
Mitochondria are essential organelles in physiology and kidney diseases, because they produce cellular energy required to perform their function. During mitochondrial metabolism, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced. ROS function as secondary messengers, inducing redox-sensitive post-translational modifications (PTM) in proteins and activating or deactivating different cell signaling pathways. However, in kidney diseases, ROS overproduction causes oxidative stress (OS), inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and altering its metabolism and dynamics. The latter processes are closely related to changes in the cell redox-sensitive signaling pathways, causing inflammation and apoptosis cell death. Although mitochondrial metabolism, ROS production, and OS have been studied in kidney diseases, the role of redox signaling pathways in mitochondria has not been addressed. This review focuses on altering the metabolism and dynamics of mitochondria through the dysregulation of redox-sensitive signaling pathways in kidney diseases.

Abstract
Significance: The 5-year survival rate of childhood cancers is now reaching 84%. However, treatments cause numerous acute and long-term side effects. These include cardiometabolic complications, namely hypertension, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and increased fat mass. Recent Advances: Many antineoplastic treatments can induce oxidative stress (OxS) and trigger an inflammatory response, which may cause acute and chronic side effects. Critical Issues: Clinical studies have reported a state of heightened OxS and inflammation during cancer treatment in children as the result of treatment cytotoxic action on both cancerous and noncancerous cells. Higher levels of OxS and inflammation are associated with treatment side effects and with the development of cardiometabolic complications. Key nutrients (omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, dietary antioxidants, probiotics, and prebiotics) have the potential to modulate inflammatory and oxidative responses and, therefore, could be considered in the search for adverse complication prevention means as long as antineoplastic treatment efficiency is maintained. Future Directions: There is a need to better understand the relationship between cardiometabolic complications, OxS, inflammation and diet during pediatric cancer treatment, which represents the ultimate goal of this review.

[PMID: 33992675 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2021.119607] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2021] [Revised: 04/29/2021] [Accepted: 05/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Mitochondria are organelles that play a pivotal role in the production of energy in cells, and vital to the maintenance of cellular homeostasis due to the regulation of many biochemical processes. The heart contains a lot of mitochondria because those muscles require a lot of energy to keep supplying blood through the circulatory system, implying that the energy generated from mitochondria is highly dependent. Thus, cardiomyocytes are sensitive to mitochondrial dysfunction and are likely to be targeted by mitochondrial toxic drugs. It has been reported that some anticancer drugs caused unwanted toxicity to mitochondria. Mitochondrial dysfunction is related to aging and the onset of many diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Mitochondrial toxic mechanisms can be mainly explained concerning reactive oxygen species (ROS)/redox status, calcium homeostasis, and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER) stress signaling. The toxic mechanisms of many anticancer drugs have been revealed, but more studying and understanding of the mechanisms of drug-induced mitochondrial toxicity is required to develop mitochondrial toxicity screening system as well as novel cardioprotective strategies for the prevention of cardiac disorders of drugs. This review focuses on the cardiac mitochondrial toxicity of commonly used anticancer drugs, i.e., doxorubicin, mitoxantrone, cisplatin, arsenic trioxide, and cyclophosphamide, and their possible chemopreventive agents that can prevent or alleviate cardiac mitochondrial toxicity.

Abstract
Aim: To sensitize cisplatin (Cis)-resistant ovarian cancer cells toward Cis using Cis-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (CisNLCs). Materials & methods: CisNLCs were synthesized and characterized using dynamic light scattering, Fourier transform IR and x-ray diffraction (XRD). Sensitivity of PA-1 and CaOV3 cells to Cis and its biotoxicity were assessed. Further, expression of the Cis-resistance markers GSTPi and ATP7B, and apoptotic markers Bax, Bcl2 and Cas9 were quantified by real-time PCR. Results: The size of synthesized CisNLCs was approximately 179.3 ± 2.32 nm and surface charge was -33.9 ± 1.47 mV. IC50 was 210 μg/ml in PA-1 and 500 μg/ml in CaOV3. CisNLCs modulated reactive oxygen species levels in CaOV3 cells. Reduced GSTPi and decreased Cis efflux via ATP7B sequestration caused Cis to accumulate in cytoplasm, thereby augmenting apoptosis in cells. Conclusion: CisNLCs sensitize CaOV3 by redox resetting, indicating their immense therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Cisplatin (CDDP) is one of the most frequently prescribed chemotherapy medications. However, its nephrotoxicity which often leads to acute kidney injury (AKI), greatly limits its clinical application. Chrysophanol (CHR), a mainly active anthraquinone ingredient, possesses various biological and pharmacological activities. In this study, we aimed to investigate the underlying protective mechanisms of CHR against CDDP-induced AKI (CDDP-AKI) using C57BL/6 mouse and human proximal tubule epithelial cells. In vivo, we found that pre-treatment with CHR greatly relieved CDDP-AKI and improved the kidney function and morphology. The mechanistic studies indicated that it might alleviate CDDP-AKI by inhibiting oxidative stress, apoptosis, and IKKβ/IκBα/p65/transcription factor nuclear kappa B (NF-κB) inflammation signaling pathway induced by CDDP. Moreover, we found that the cell viability of HK2 cells reduced by CDDP was partially rescued by CHR pre-incubation. Flow cytometry results further indicated that CHR pre-incubation suppressed CDDP induced cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and inhibited cell apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. In summary, our results suggested that CHR might be a novel therapy for CDDP-induced AKI.

Abstract
Platinum-based compounds are the most widely used anticancer drugs but, their elevated toxicity and chemoresistance has stimulated the study of others, such as ruthenium-based compounds. NAMI-A and UNICAM-1 were tested in vitro, comparing the mechanisms of toxicity, in terms of mitochondrial functionality and cellular oxidative stress. UNICAM-1, showed a clear mitochondrial target and a cytotoxic dose-dependent response thanks to its ability to promote an imbalance of cellular redox status. It impaired directly mitochondrial respiratory chain, promoting mitochondrial superoxide anion production, leading to mitochondrial membrane depolarization. All these aspects, could make UNICAM-1 a valid alternative for chemotherapy treatment of breast cancer.

Abstract
Cisplatin is broadly used in the treatment of malignancies. However, the high incidence of nephrotoxicity following cisplatin use deters its clinical utility. Former studies have shown that the essential oils, obtained from Citrus limonia demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. The aim of the current work was to evaluate the protective effects of Citrus limonia oil against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. Thirty-two adult male mice were divided into four groups, eight mice each. The control group received distilled water, and the second group received a single intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin (20 mg/kg), while the third and fourth groups received cisplatin plus Citrus limonia oil at 100 or 200 mg/kg for 10 days, respectively. GC-MS analysis showed that the major components in Citrus limonia oil were D-limonene, 5-methyl-pentadecane, (n)-menthol, 3,7-dimethyl-(E)-2,6-octadienal, 3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal, and nonadecane. Biochemical analysis showed that cisplatin intoxication was associated with significantly increased (p < 0.05) serum levels of urea and creatine and pro-inflammatory cytokines, as well as augmented renal tissue oxidative stress. Light microscopic examination showed loss of renal architecture, atrophied glomeruli, interstitial hemorrhage, dilated cortical tubules with cast formation, and excessive collagen production. Electron microscopic examination revealed compressed and karyorrhectic endothelial nuclei with chromatin condensation in the glomeruli, accumulation of mesangial matrix, and obliteration of glomerular blood capillaries. Co-administration of Citrus limonia oil attenuated these effects in renal histopathological, morphometric, and ultrastructural examinations, frequently in a dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, Citrus limonia oil can ameliorate the toxic effect of cisplatin on mice kidneys, probably through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Abstract
Mitochondria are energy-producing organelles that not only satisfy the high metabolic demands of the kidney but sense and respond to kidney injury-induced oxidative stress and inflammation. Kidneys are rich in mitochondria. Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a critical role in the progression of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. Mitochondrial responses to specific stimuli are highly regulated and synergistically modulated by tightly interconnected processes, including mitochondrial dynamics (fission, fusion) and mitophagy. The counterbalance between these processes is essential in maintaining a healthy network of mitochondria. Recent literature suggests that alterations in mitochondrial dynamics are implicated in kidney injury and the progression of kidney diseases. A decrease in mitochondrial fusion promotes fission-induced mitochondrial fragmentation, but a reduction in mitochondrial fission produces excessive mitochondrial elongation. The removal of dysfunctional mitochondria by mitophagy is crucial for their quality control. Defective mitochondrial function disrupts cellular redox potential and can cause cell death. Mitochondrial DNA derived from damaged cells also act as damage-associated molecular patterns to recruit immune cells and the inflammatory response can further exaggerate kidney injury. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. We discuss the processes that control mitochondrial stress responses to kidney injury and review recent advances in understanding the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in inflammation and tissue damage through the use of different experimental models of kidney disease. We also describe potential mitochondria-targeted therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Elevated intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant defense systems have been recognized as one of the hallmarks of cancer cells. Compared with normal cells, cancer cells exhibit increased ROS to maintain their malignant phenotypes and are more dependent on the "redox adaptation" mechanism. Thus, there are two apparently contradictory but virtually complementary therapeutic strategies for the regulation of ROS to prevent or treat cancer. The first strategy, that is, chemoprevention, is to prevent or reduce intracellular ROS either by suppressing ROS production pathways or by employing antioxidants to enhance ROS clearance, which protects normal cells from malignant transformation and inhibits the early stage of tumorigenesis. The second strategy is the ROS-mediated anticancer therapy, which stimulates intracellular ROS to a toxicity threshold to activate ROS-induced cell death pathways. Therefore, targeting the regulation of intracellular ROS-related pathways by small-molecule candidates is considered to be a promising treatment for tumors. We herein first briefly introduce the source and regulation of ROS, and then focus on small molecules that regulate ROS-related pathways and show efficacy in cancer therapy from the perspective of pharmacophores. Finally, we discuss several challenges in developing cancer therapeutic agents based on ROS regulation and propose the direction of future development.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent. However, it is causing nephrotoxic side effects including a reduced glomerular filtration rate and acute kidney injury. Although kidneys can recover to an extent from the treatment, long-term damage is possible. While a lot of research is focusing on short-term effects, little is known about adverse metabolic effects in the process of recovery. In this study, male Han Wistar rats were dosed with a single intraperitoneal injection of 3 mg/kg cisplatin. Urine and kidney samples were harvested 3, 8 and 26 days after administration. Tubular injury was demonstrated through urinary biomarkers. Complementing this, mass spectrometry imaging gives insight on molecular alterations on a spatial level, thus making it well suited to analyze short- and long-term disturbances. Various metabolic pathways seem to be affected, as changes in a wide range of metabolites were observed between treated and control animals. Besides previously reported early changes in kidney metabolism, unprecedented long-term effects were detected including deviation in nucleotides, antioxidants, and phospholipids.

Abstract
This review summarizes the adverse effects on the central and/or peripheral nervous systems that may occur in response to antineoplastic drugs. In particular, we describe the neurotoxic side effects of the most commonly used drugs, such as platinum compounds, doxorubicin, ifosfamide, 5-fluorouracil, vinca alkaloids, taxanes, methotrexate, bortezomib and thalidomide. Neurotoxicity may result from direct action of compounds on the nervous system or from metabolic alterations produced indirectly by these drugs, and either the central nervous system or the peripheral nervous system, or both, may be affected. The incidence and severity of neurotoxicity are principally related to the dose, to the duration of treatment, and to the dose intensity, though other factors, such as age, concurrent pathologies, and genetic predisposition may enhance the occurrence of side effects. To avoid or reduce the onset and severity of these neurotoxic effects, the use of neuroprotective compounds and/or strategies may be helpful, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effectiveness of antineoplastic drug.

Abstract
The folate-coupled metabolic enzyme MTHFD2 (the mitochondrial methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase) confers redox homeostasis and drives cancer cell proliferation and migration. Here, we show that MTHFD2 is hyperacetylated and lysine 88 is the critical acetylated site. SIRT3, the major deacetylase in mitochondria, is responsible for MTHFD2 deacetylation. Interestingly, chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin inhibits expression of SIRT3 to induce acetylation of MTHFD2 in colorectal cancer cells. Cisplatin-induced acetylated K88 MTHFD2 is sufficient to inhibit its enzymatic activity and downregulate NADPH levels in colorectal cancer cells. Ac-K88-MTHFD2 is significantly decreased in human colorectal cancer samples and is inversely correlated with the upregulated expression of SIRT3. Our findings reveal an unknown regulation axis of cisplatin-SIRT3-MTHFD2 in redox homeostasis and suggest a potential therapeutic strategy for cancer treatments by targeting MTHFD2.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of dendropanoxide (DPx) isolated from Dendropanax morbifera against cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (CDDP)-induced nephrotoxicity in NRK-52E cells and in Sprague-Dawley rats. DPx was administered to Sprague-Dawley rats by oral gavage (5 and 10 mg/kg) for 7 consecutive days, 24 h after intraperitoneal injection with CDDP (6 mg/kg). All rats were euthanized 24 h after the last DPx administration, and histopathological damage, acute kidney injury (AKI) biomarkers, inflammatory cytokines, and oxidative damages were evaluated. DPx (5 and 10 μg/mL) was found to protect against CDDP-induced cytotoxicity and apoptotic cell death in NRK-52E cells. CDDP-induced serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (sCr), and pro-inflammatory cytokines levels were significantly ameliorated by DPx in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, excretion of kidney injury molecules (KIM-1), selenium binding protein-1 (SBP-1), and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in the urine was significantly reduced in response to DPx administration in CDDP-treated rats. Activities of antioxidant enzymes and lipid peroxidation levels were markedly altered in the kidney of CDDP-treated rats in response to DPx administration. Serum pro-inflammatory cytokine levels were dramatically suppressed by DPx in CDDP-treated rats. DPx also restored renal-cell apoptosis via regulation of AMPK/mTOR signaling in CDDP-treated rats. Our results clearly suggest that DPx ameliorates CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity in vitro and in vivo by inhibiting oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. Overall, our data demonstrates that DPx may serve as a therapeutic agent in patients with solid tumors to prevent CDDP-induced AKI.

Abstract
How do organisms deal with free iron? On the one hand, iron is an essential metal that plays crucial structural and functional roles in many organisms. On the other hand, free iron is extremely toxic, particularly under aerobic conditions, where iron rapidly undergoes the Fenton reaction and produces highly reactive hydroxyl radicals. Our study now demonstrates that we have discovered one of the first physiologically relevant nonproteinaceous iron chelators and Fenton inhibitors. We found that polyphosphate, a highly conserved and ubiquitous inorganic polyanion, chelates iron and, through its multivalency, prevents the interaction of iron with peroxide and therefore the formation of hydroxyl radicals. We show that polyP provides a crucial iron reservoir for metalloproteins under nonstress conditions and effectively chelates free iron during iron stress. Importantly, polyP is present in all cells and organisms and hence is likely to take on this crucial function in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Maintaining cellular iron homeostasis is critical for organismal survival. Whereas iron depletion negatively affects the many metabolic pathways that depend on the activity of iron-containing enzymes, any excess of iron can cause the rapid formation of highly toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) through Fenton chemistry. Although several cellular iron chelators have been identified, little is known about if and how organisms can prevent the Fenton reaction. By studying the effects of cisplatin, a commonly used anticancer drug and effective antimicrobial, we discovered that cisplatin elicits severe iron stress and oxidative DNA damage in bacteria. We found that both of these effects are successfully prevented by polyphosphate (polyP), an abundant polymer consisting solely of covalently linked inorganic phosphates. Subsequent in vitro and in vivo studies revealed that polyP provides a crucial iron reservoir under nonstress conditions and effectively complexes free iron and blocks ROS formation during iron stress. These results demonstrate that polyP, a universally conserved biomolecule, plays a hitherto unrecognized role as an iron chelator and an inhibitor of the Fenton reaction.

The Role of Oxidative Stress in Physiopathology and Pharmacological Treatment with Pro- and Antioxidant Properties in Chronic Diseases. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2020; 2020:2082145. [PMID: 32774665 PMCID: PMC7396016 DOI: 10.1155/2020/2082145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 101] [Impact Index Per Article: 25.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2020] [Accepted: 07/08/2020] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
Oxidative stress (OS) has the ability to damage different molecules and cellular structures, altering the correct function of organs and systems. OS accumulates in the body by endogenous and exogenous mechanisms. Increasing evidence points to the involvement of OS in the physiopathology of various chronic diseases that require prolonged periods of pharmacological treatment. Long-term treatments may contribute to changes in systemic OS. In this review, we discuss the involvement of OS in the pathological mechanisms of some chronic diseases, the pro- or antioxidant effects of their pharmacological treatments, and possible adjuvant antioxidant alternatives. Diseases such as high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, and diabetes mellitus contribute to the increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Antihypertensive, lipid-lowering, and hypoglycemic treatments help reduce the risk with an additional antioxidant benefit. Treatment with methotrexate in autoimmune systemic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, has a dual role in stimulating the production of OS and producing mitochondrial dysfunction. However, it can also help indirectly decrease the systemic OS induced by inflammation. Medicaments used to treat neurodegenerative diseases tend to decrease the mechanisms related to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and balance OS. On the other hand, immunosuppressive treatments used in cancer or human immunodeficiency virus infection increase the production of ROS, causing significant oxidative damage in different organs and systems without widely documented exogenous antioxidant administration alternatives.
