Nephrotoxic potential of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum and four analogs in male Fischer 344 rats. 1981

Cis-diamminedichloroplatinum [cis-DDP; NSC-119875] and four analogs (NSC-241240, NSC-271674, NSC-263158, and NSC-268252) were evaluated for their acute nephrotoxic potential in male F344 rats following iv administration. Indices of nephrotoxicity included blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, kidney weights, and microscopic examination. Results indicated that renal function, organ weights, and histology are important criteria for assessing the nephrotoxic potential of cis-DDP analogs, although alterations in these parameters may have been influenced by severe body weight loss. cis-DDP appeared to be the most nephrotoxic compound studied, and NSC-241240 demonstrated minimal renal damage. Ranking of compounds in order of their nephrotoxic potential (most to least) was cis-DDP, NSC-263158, NSC-268252, NSC-271674, and NSC-241240.

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.
