| Abstract | The anticancer drug cis-platin (CP) is widely used to treat patients, but it is also associated with significant side effects, including nephrotoxicity. Given that this metallodrug is intravenously (iv) administered, its biotransformations in the bloodstream are likely to be involved in mediating these side-effects. Previous studies have revealed that the iv administration of patients/mammalian model organisms with sodium thiosulfate (STS) can ameliorate the side effects of CP, but the underlying molecular basis remains elusive. We have studied the effect of STS on the metabolism of CP in human plasma in vitro by determining the platinum (Pt) distribution using size exclusion chromatography (SEC) coupled on-line to an inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES). The addition of STS to plasma 10 min before CP was added accelerated the hydrolysis of CP and resulted in the formation of a Pt–STS complex. Conversely, when plasma was incubated with CP for up to 3 h and STS was added thereafter the analysis of the obtained mixture revealed that the formation of the same Pt–STS complex which in turn greatly diminished the plasma protein binding of CP-derived hydrolysis products. Thus, the observed amelioration of the side effects of CP by STS can be rationalized in terms of the rapid formation of a biologically inactive Pt–STS complex in the bloodstream. This is the first mechanism that can explain the amelioration of the side effects of CP by STS. Based on the fact that cis-platin remained in plasma for a considerable amount of time, the optimization of the administration sequence, the molar ratio and the time delay between the administration of both drugs emerges as a viable strategy to achieve a careful balance between ameliorating the side effects while leaving the antitumour activity intact. Our results demonstrate that in vitro studies can be useful to develop feasible strategies to mitigate the side-effects of Pt-based anticancer drugs in patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
