A Novel Synthetic Compound, Bismuth Zinc Citrate, Could Potentially Reduce Cisplatin-Induced Toxicity Without Compromising the Anticancer Effect Through Enhanced Expression of Antioxidant Protein

Cisplatin is a common anticancer drug, but it comes with significant nephrotoxicity. Further cisplatin-induced oxidative stress contributes to the pathogenesis of the nephrotoxicity. A new compound, BiZn, can potentially prevent this complication. We verified our postulation by in vitro and in vivo...
