Bismuth Porphyrin Antagonizes Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity via Unexpected Metallothionein-Independent Mechanisms

Summary: Cisplatin (CDDP) has been a highly successful anticancer drug in cancer therapy; however, its further application suffers severe nephrotoxicity. Herein, we identify bismuth tetraphenylporphyrinate [Bi(TPP)] as a potent protective agent against CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity. Bi(TPP) attenuates...
