Abstract

Cisplatin is a platinum-based chemotherapy drug that is widely used to treat various types of malignancies. Although the involvement of circadian clock in cisplatin metabolism and excretion has been reported, the effect of cisplatin on circadian rhythm remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the effects of cisplatin on clock genes expression in mouse peripheral tissues. Cisplatin induced severe nephrotoxicity, as revealed by the significant increase of blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels. Moreover, cisplatin circadian time-dependently induced p21 expression in the liver, heart and kidney, with the highest increase during the dark phase. In addition, cisplatin altered the clock genes expression in the liver, heart and kidney in a tissue- and gene-specific manner. Interesting, the expression of D site of the albumin promoter binding protein (Dbp), a gene involved in detoxification and drug metabolism, was consistently suppressed in the liver, heart and kidney after cisplatin treatment, implying a role of DBP in the toxicity of cisplatin.

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.
