Reduction of the renal toxicity of cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum(II) by probenecid. 1979

D A Ross, and G R Gale

Probenecid, when administered sc to F344 rats 1 hour prior to an iv LD50 dose of cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum(II) (CDPP), reduced significantly the peak BUN and serum creatinine levels which occurred 4 days following CDDP. Renal histopathology was similarly reduced by probenecid pretreatment. In BDF, mice, the LD50 value of CDDP administered ip without probenecid pretreatment was 17 mg/kg; the LD50 dose with probenecid was increased to greater than 19 mg/kg. Probenecid pretreatment did not influence the therapeutic response to CDDP when the letter was administered to BDF mice bearing L1210 leukemia.

D011339	Probenecid	The prototypical uricosuric agent. It inhibits the renal excretion of organic anions and reduces tubular reabsorption of urate. Probenecid has also been used to treat patients with renal impairment, and, because it reduces the renal tubular excretion of other drugs, has been used as an adjunct to antibacterial therapy.

D001806	Blood Urea Nitrogen	The urea concentration of the blood stated in terms of nitrogen content. Serum (plasma) urea nitrogen is approximately 12% higher than blood urea nitrogen concentration because of the greater protein content of red blood cells. Increases in blood or serum urea nitrogen are referred to as azotemia and may have prerenal, renal, or postrenal causes.

D002945	Cisplatin	An inorganic and water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts with DNA to produce both intra and interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in the G2 phase of the cell cycle.
