Cisplatin is a highly effective chemotherapeutic agent that has been used for more than 50 years for a variety of cancers; however, its use is limited by toxicity, including nephrotoxicity. In this in-depth review, we discuss the incidence of cisplatin-associated acute kidney injury, as well as common risk factors for its development. Cisplatin accumulates in the kidney tubules and causes AKI through various mechanisms, including DNA damage, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. We also discuss the spectrum of nephrotoxicity, including acute and chronic impairment of kidney function, electrolyte disturbances, and thrombotic microangiopathy. We discuss the limited options for the diagnosis, prevention, and management of these complications, along with factors that may impact future therapy with or without cisplatin. We conclude with directions for future research in this expanding and important area.

Background: The literature reports that ezrin (EZR) is important as a linker between microfilaments and cellular environments. Moreover, it affects cancer cell migration, but the exact mechanism is not fully understood. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of EZR in the migration of two different types of cervical cancer cells-from primary lesion (SiHa) and lymph node metastases (HT-3).

Cancer is an important disease that threatens human life and health. Many natural compounds from plants have been found to have a better inhibitory effect on cancer, and flavonoids are one of them. Tangeretin, a flavonoid, is widely present in a variety of citrus plants and has been shown to have a variety of biological activities that can inhibit tumor cells.

Hearing loss is one of the most common sensory disorders in humans, and a large number of cases are due to ear cell damage caused by ototoxic drugs including anticancer agents, such as cisplatin. The recent literature reported that hearing loss is promoted by an excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cochlea cells, which causes oxidative stress. Recently, polysaccharides from the cyanobacterium showed many biological activities, including antioxidant activity, suggesting their potential use to combat hearing loss.

A major challenging problem facing effective ovarian cancer therapy is cisplatin resistance. Re-sensitization of cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells to cisplatin (CDDP) has become a critical issue. Curcumin (CUR), the most abundant dietary polyphenolic curcuminoids derived from turmeric (), has achieved previously significant anti-cancer effects against human ovarian adenocarcinoma SKOV-3/CDDP cisplatin-resistant cells by inhibition the gene expression of the antioxidant enzymes (, , , and ), transcription factor and signaling pathway (//).

In this study, we report the first example of acyclic (amino)(N-pyridinium)carbenoid gold(III) complexes synthesized via a coupling reaction between 2-pyridylselenyl chloride and Au(I)-bound isonitriles. The reaction involves an initial oxidative addition of the Se-Cl moiety to Au(I), followed by the nucleophilic addition of the pyridine fragment to the isonitrile's C≡N bond, furnishing a metallacycle. Importantly, this is the first example of the pyridine acting as a nucleophile towards metal-bound isonitriles.
