Abstract

The cardiotoxicity of chemotherapeutic drugs as cisplatin has become a major issue in recent years. The present study investigates the efficacy of curcumin nanoparticles against the cardiotoxic effects of cisplatin by assessment of oxidative stress parameters, Na+,K+-ATPase, acetylcholinesterase (AchE) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in cardiac tissue in addition to serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Rats were divided into three groups: control rats that received saline for 14 days; cisplatin-treated rats that received a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of cisplatin (12 mg/kg) followed by a daily oral administration of saline (0.9%) for 14 days and rats treated with a single i.p. injection of cisplatin (12 mg/kg) followed by a daily oral administration of curcumin nanoparticles (50 mg/kg) for 14 days. Cisplatin resulted in a significant increase in lipid peroxidation, nitric oxide (NO), and TNF-α and a significant decrease in reduced glutathione (GSH) levels and Na+, K+- ATPase activity. Moreover, significant increases in cardiac AchE and serum lactate dehydrogenase activities were recorded. Treatment of cisplatin-injected animals with curcumin nanoparticles ameliorated all the alterations induced by cisplatin in the heart of rats. This suggests that curcumin nanoparticles can be used as an important therapeutic adjuvant in chemotherapeutic and other toxicities mediated by oxidative stress and inflammation.
