Abstract

Oxaliplatin, a new widely used anticancer drug, displays frequent, sometimes severe, acute sensory neurotoxicity accompanied by neuromuscular signs that look like the symptoms observed in tetany and myotonia. The whole cell patch-clamp technique was employed to investigate the oxaliplatin effects on the electrophysiological properties of short-term cultured dorsal unpaired median (DUM) neurons isolated from the CNS of the cockroach Periplaneta americana. Within the clinical concentration range, oxaliplatin (40–500 μM), applied intracellularly, decreased the amplitude of the voltage-gated sodium current resulting in a reduction of half the amplitude of the action potential. For comparison, two other platinum derivatives, cisplatin and carboplatin, were found to be ineffective at reducing the sodium current amplitude. In addition, we compared the oxaliplatin action to those of its metabolites dichloro-diaminocyclohexane platinum (dach-Cl 2-platin) and oxalate. Oxalate (500 μM) was found to be effective, like oxaliplatin, at reducing the inward sodium current amplitude, whereas dach-Cl 2-platin (500 μM) failed to change the current amplitude. Interestingly, the effect of oxalate or oxaliplatin could be mimicked by using intracellularly applied 10 mM bis-( o-aminophenoxy)- N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA), known as chelator of calcium ions. We concluded that oxaliplatin was capable of altering the voltage-gated sodium channels through a pathway involving calcium ions probably immobilized by its metabolite oxalate. The medical interest of preventing acute neurotoxic side effects of oxaliplatin by infusing Ca 2+and Mg 2+is discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
