“…[434445] Our data strongly supported that as the cisplatin induced sever alterations in mitochondrial shape and structure and this was consistence with other investigators. [3246] Maintaining the orderly architecture of RPTCs and their basement membrane depends on the integration of nonoxidized lipids that have been lost after cisplatin treatment as a result of ROM formation with lipid peroxidation leading to lipid containing membranes dilation, suggesting cytoplasmic vacuolation and multiple heterogeneous vacuoles observed in this current study.…”

Background:Renal toxicity is the most common complication of cispaltin therapy that has broad-spectrum antitumor activity against a variety of human solid tumor. Suramin, a Food and Drug Administration-approved old drug is a polysulfonated compound of napthylurea originally designed to treat trypanosomiasis.Aim:The current work aimed to investigate the possible protective effect of different doses of suramin against cisplatin-induced renal proximal tubular cells (RPTCs) damage.Material and Methods:Fifty adult male rats were used and divided into five equal groups. Group I served as a control, group II received suramin alone (10 mg/kg). Groups III, IV and V were administered cisplatin once (5 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) alone or combined with low dosage suramin (5 mg/kg) or high dosage suramin (10 mg/kg) once intravenously respectively.Results:Compared with control rats, cisplatin administration caused proximal tubules damage, RPTCs vacuolation with pyknotic nuclei, loss of brush border and widespread caspase-3 immunostaining. Cisplatin-induced RPTCs toxicity was further confirmed morphometrically (a significantly decreased proximal tubular epithelium height and increased mean number of caspase-3-immunopositive cells). These changes were accompanied by biochemical alteration manifested as a significant increase of blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine. Simultaneous administration of high-dose but not low-dose suramin to the cisplatin-treated rats improved the deleterious morphological and morphometrical effects on RPTCs and restored the aforementioned biochemical parameters to control values.Conclusion:In conclusion suramin in a dose dependant manner protects RPTCs from damage induced by cisplatin.
