Antioxidantes da dieta como inibidores da nefrotoxicidade induzida pelo antitumoral cisplatina

Abstract: A cisplatina é uma droga antineoplásica altamente efetiva contra vários tipos de cânceres humanos, tais como tumores do testículo e ovário, câncer da cabeça e pescoço e câncer do pulmão. Entretanto, a nefrotoxicidade é um dos principais efeitos colaterais da terapia com a cisplatina. A gravidade da nefrotoxicidade induzida pela cisplatina está relacionada com a concentração de platina nos rins. As evidências mostram que a nefrotoxicidade induzida pela cisplatina é atribuída ao dano oxidativo resultante da gera… Show more

“…The renal toxicity observed in this present study is related to nephrotoxic and/ or vesical toxic effect of the drug, as reported by Costa et al (2004). According to Antunes & Bianchi (2004), the nephrotoxicity is one of the main side-effects of therapy with cisplatin, an antineoplastic drug as well as cyclophosphamide. Based on employed methodology and obtained results, it is possible to conclude that cyclophosphamide leads to a decrease in body weight and testicles weight, in all administered concentrations, at doses of 150, 200 and 250 mg.kg -1 ; it decreases also epididymides and liver weights; alters the morphology of spermatozoids compromising so the fertilization; presents toxicity for liver and kidneys and, in addition, decreases fetal viability increasing so the reabsorption rate; however, this chemotherapeutic didn't cause significant malformations in the offspring of treated males.…”

“…It can react with many cellular structures and molecules, such as membranes, proteins, and RNA, but its specific target is DNA. Administration of antioxidant agents, which can sequester free radicals from oxygen, results in effective protection against the oxidative damage induced by cisplatin (Antunes and Bianchi, 2004).…”

“…Previous studies have provided evidence that chemotherapy side effects are mediated by free radicals both in vivo and in vitro (Antunes and Bianchi, 2004). Weijl et al (1998) found that chemotherapy with cisplatin reduces the patient's plasma antioxidant levels, demonstrating that free radical production occurs during treatment.…”

“…La cisplatina es uno de los agentes antineoplásicos que ha presentado mayor potencial terapéutico en gran variedad de neoplasias humanas y de animales, principalmente en el tratamiento de los tumores de testículo, ovario, melanomas malignos y tumores de cabeza y cuello. Sin embargo su uso se ha limitado debido a sus efectos colaterales (1).…”
