Newest firstCisplatin-induced ototoxicity is a detrimental side effect of chemotherapy leading to hearing loss, for which no treatments are currently available. Despite the growing recognition of the endocannabinoid (eCB) system (ECS) as a significant contributor to different physiological and pathological processes, its role in hearing remains poorly investigated. To fill this knowledge gap, we performed a molecular profilin…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cisplatin (CDDP) is an effective chemotherapeutic agent used to treat solid tumors, but it can cause irreversible hearing loss. Currently, there are no specific preventive measures available for this side effect. G protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties and is implicated in various disease processes. Nevertheless, whether GPR55 plays a role in CDD…
Open article record in new tab ↗Capsaicin, the spicy component of hot chili peppers activates the TRPV1 pain receptors, and causes rapid desensitization. Capsaicin also ameliorates cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. Cisplatin, a commonly used anti-neoplastic agent for solid tumors causes significant hearing loss, nephrotoxicity and peripheral neuropathy. Upregulation of cochlear TRPV1 expression is related to cisplatin-mediated ototoxicity. Here…
Open article record in new tab ↗Evidence of significant hearing loss during the early days of use of cisplatin as a chemotherapeutic agent in cancer patients has stimulated research into the causes and treatment of this side effect. It has generally been accepted that hearing loss is produced by excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cell of the cochlea, which led to the development of various antioxidants as otoprotective agen…
