T. Yokozawa et al., MAGNESIUM LITHOSPERMATE-B AMELIORATES CISPLATIN-INDUCED INJURY IN CULTURED RENAL EPITHELIAL-CELLS, Experimental and toxicologic pathology, 49(5), 1997, pp. 343-346
A study was conducted to clarify whether magnesium lithospermate B ame
liorates cisplatin-induced renal injury in terms of lactate dehydrogen
ase and malondialdehyde leakage from LLC-PK1 cells in culture. Magnesi
um lithospermate B was shown to suppress the cytotoxicity of cisplatin
, the suppressive effect increasing with the dose of magnesium lithosp
ermate B.
