Özet
Oxaliplatin (OXL) is a chemotherapeutic drug used for metastatic and other types of cancer, but it causes peripheral neuropathy as a dose-limiting side effect. Herein, we used the rat model of OXL-induced peripheral neuropathy to demonstrate the protective effects of naringin (NRG) in this neuropathy. In this study, rats were injected with OXL (4 mg/kg, body weight, i.p.) in 5% glucose solution 30 min after oral administration of NRG (50 and 100 mg/kg, body weight) on the 1st, 2nd, 5th, and 6th days. OXL caused sensory and motor neuropathy (as revealed by the hot plate, tail flick, rota-rod, and cold hyperalgesia tests) in the sciatic nerve of rats. Coadministration of oral NRG alleviated OXL-induced sensory and motor neuropathy. Levels of superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2, Heme oxygenase-1, nuclear factor-kappa B, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1 beta, Bax, Bcl-2, caspase-3, paraoxonase, mitogen-activated protein kinase 14, neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), acetylcholinesterase, and arginase 2 in the sciatic nerve tissues were assessed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Moreover, the protein levels of caspase-3, Bax, Bcl-2, intercellular adhesion molecules-1, glial fibrillary acidic protein, and nNOS were examined by Western blot analysis. NRG treatment significantly improved all the above-mentioned parameters and reduced OXL-induced oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in the sciatic nerve tissue. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that NRG significantly attenuated OXL-induced peripheral neuropathy and might be considered as a new protective agent to prevent the OXL-induced peripheral neuropathy.
