Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The ototoxicity of gentamicin and cisplatin can be evaluated with a Schwann cell model to screen for otoprotective agents that can be encapsulated into poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microparticles for drug delivery to the inner ear. BACKGROUND Aminoglycosides and cisplatin are widely prescribed but known to cause ototoxicity. There is strong evidence that compromise to Schwann cells ensheathing inner ear afferent neurons results in inner ear dysfunction mimicking drug-induced ototoxicity. There is a need for a model for ototoxic demyelination to screen medications for protective potential and to subsequently target and tune the delivery of any promising agents. METHODS RT4-D6P2T rat schwannoma cells were used as a Schwann cell model to assess gentamicin and cisplatin toxicity and to screen for protective agents. Cell viability was evaluated with the MTT cell proliferation assay. N -acetylcysteine (NAC) was encapsulated into a PLGA microparticle, and its elution profile was determined. RESULTS The estimated 50% lethal concentration dose for gentamicin was 805.6 μM, which was 46-fold higher than that for cisplatin (17.5 μM). In several trials, cells dosed with NAC and cisplatin demonstrated a 22.6% ( p < 0.001) increase in cell viability when compared with cisplatin alone. However, this protective effect was not consistent across all trials. NAC was encapsulated into a PLGA microparticle and elution plateaued at 5 days. CONCLUSION When dosed at their respective therapeutic ranges, cisplatin is more likely than gentamicin to induce damage to the Schwann cell model. Although NAC demonstrates an uncertain role in protecting against cisplatin-induced Schwann cell cytotoxicity, this study establishes a method to screen for other otoprotective medications to encapsulate into a tunable microparticle for localized drug delivery.

Abstract
Gentamicin ototoxicity can generate free radicals within the inner ear, leading to permanent damage to sensory hair cells (HCs) and eventually hearing loss. The following study examined the alterations of oxidative damage-related genes in the cochlea and important molecules responsible for oxidation following gentamicin injury in vitro. The RT2 Profiler polymerase chain reaction (PCR) array was used to screen candidate targets for treatment to prevent hearing loss caused by gentamicin. We found that during gentamicin-induced death in HCs, Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) had a high fold change in the HCs of the cochlea. Moreover, the use of CoPPIX to induce HO-1 inhibited gentamicin-induced HC death, while HO-1 inhibitors ZnPPIX after CoPPIX reversed this process. Furthermore, the inhibitors of NF-E2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) reduced the expression of HO-1 and inhibited the protective effect of HO-1 after gentamicin, thus suggesting that the Nrf2/HO-1 axis might regulate gentamicin-associated ototoxicity. We further demonstrated that induction of HO-1 up-regulated the expression of Nrf2 in both cochlear and HEI-OC1 cells. In summary, these findings indicated that HO-1 protects HCs from gentamicin by up-regulating its expression in HCs and interacting with Nrf2 to inhibit reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Nrf2 signaling pathway in cisplatin chemotherapy: Potential involvement in organ protection and chemoresistance. Pharmacol Res 2021; 167:105575. [PMID: 33771701 DOI: 10.1016/j.phrs.2021.105575] [Citation(s) in RCA: 74] [Impact Index Per Article: 24.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2021] [Revised: 03/20/2021] [Accepted: 03/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a vital transcription factor and its induction is of significant importance for protecting against oxidative damage. Increased levels of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) stimulate Nrf2 signaling, enhancing the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase. These enzymes are associated with retarding oxidative stress. On the other hand, Nrf2 activation in cancer cells is responsible for the development of chemoresistance due to disrupting oxidative mediated-cell death by reducing ROS levels. Cisplatin (CP), cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II), is a potent anti-tumor agent extensively used in cancer therapy, but its frequent application leads to the development of chemoresistance as well. In the present study, association of Nrf2 signaling with chemoresistance to CP and protection against its deleterious effects is discussed. Anti-tumor compounds, mainly phytochemicals, retard chemoresistance by suppressing Nrf2 signaling. Upstream mediators such as microRNAs can regulate Nrf2 expression during CP chemotherapy regimens. Protection against side effects of CP is mediated via activating Nrf2 signaling and its downstream targets activating antioxidant defense system. Protective agents that activate Nrf2 signaling, can ameliorate CP-mediated ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity. Reducing ROS levels and preventing cell death are the most important factors involved in alleviating CP toxicity upon Nrf2 activation. As pre-clinical experiments advocate the role of Nrf2 in chemoprotection and CP resistance, translating these findings to the clinic can provide a significant progress in treatment of cancer patients.

Abstract
Background: Erythropoietin (EPO) plays a substantial role in cancer development and probably affects clinical outcomes. A functional polymorphism (rs1617640, G > T) in the promoter region of the EPO increases protein expression. This study investigated the association of EPO rs1617640 with treatment efficacy and severe toxicity in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients undergoing platinum-based regimens.Methods: 437 Chinese NSCLC patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy were recruited. Association between EPO rs1617640 and clinical outcomes was calculated by multivariable logistic regression.Results: The TT genotype of EPO rs1617640 was significantly correlated with a higher response rate to platinum-based treatment than the other genotypes (OR, 0.507; 95% CI: 0.305-0.842; P = 0.009), particularly in elderly patients (>55 years), male gender, smokers, IV stage, cisplatin-based chemotherapies, and platinum-gemcitabine regimen subgroups. As for toxicity, EPO rs1617640 TT genotype demonstrated poorer tolerance to grade 3-4 hematologic toxicity (OR, 1.783; 95% CI: 1.098-2.898; P = 0.019), particularly in subgroups of elderly patients (>55 years), male gender, smokers, IIIA+IIIB stage, and cisplatin-based chemotherapies.Conclusion: Our results demonstrated the role of EPO rs1617640 as a possible predictive marker of treatment efficacy and severe toxicity for platinum-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
Tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) has been reported to be protective against apoptosis and oxidative stress in various cell types. A few studies have demonstrated otoprotective effects of TUDCA in mouse models. This study investigated the otoprotective effects of TUDCA in cisplatin (CXP)-induced hearing-loss rats. Eight-week-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were used. The CXP group received intraperitoneal injection of CXP at a dose of 5 mg/kg from day 1 to day 3. The CXP + TUDCA group received an intraperitoneal injection of 5 mg/kg CXP and 100 mg/kg TUDCA from day 1 to day 3. The mRNA expression levels of heme oxygenase 1 (HO1) and superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) were measured, and the protein levels of caspase 3, cleaved caspase 3, and aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) were evaluated. The CXP group demonstrated higher mean auditory brainstem responses (ABR) thresholds than the control group. The mean ABR threshold shifts were lower in the CXP + TUDCA group than in the CXP group. The CXP group showed elevated HO1 and SOD2 mRNA expression levels compared to the control group, but these changes were reversed in the CXP + TUDCA group. Compared to the levels in the control group, caspase 3, cleaved caspase 3, and AhR levels were higher in the CXP group, but the increase in cleaved caspase-3 was attenuated in the CXP + TUDCA group. The cochlea showed a higher number of spiral ganglion cells and outer hair cells in the CXP + TUDCA group than in the CXP group. TUDCA reduced CXP-induced hearing loss in adult rats. The HO1-mediated antioxidative effects attenuated apoptosis in the cochlea, but AhR activation was not reversed.
