Nephroprotective Effect of Diosmin against Cisplatin-Induced Kidney Damage by Modulating IL-1β, IL-6, TNFα and Renal Oxidative Damage.

Cisplatin (CP) is a platinum compound of the alkylating agent class that is used for the treatment of various types of cancer. However, CP treatments in cancer patients are accountable for nephrotoxicity, as it is a major adverse effect. Hence, this research study was proposed to investigate the nephroprotective effect of diosmin, a flavonoid glycoside of hesperidin derivatives against cisplatin-induced kidney damage.
