Abstract (original English)

Objective The occurrence of nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity as a result of cisplatin administration is a major concern in clinical practice. This study examined the potential protective effects of administering mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on the renal and hepatic damage caused by cisplatin. Moreover, the study investigated the potential protective effects of administering Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (ADMSC) to counteract the harmful effects of cisplatin-induced kidney and liver damage. Materials and methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: normal control, cisplatin + saline, and cisplatin + ADMSC. Cisplatin was administered to induce toxicity, and ADMSC was administered intravenously as a potential therapeutic intervention. Biochemical parameters and histopathological changes were assessed in the kidney and liver tissues. Statistical analyses were performed using a one-way ANOVA. Results Cisplatin increased malondialdehyde (MDA), tumor necrosis factor alfa (TNF-alfa), IL-6, alanine transaminase (ALT), creatinine, Galectin-3, Tissue growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1), compared to the normal control group. Cisplatin-MSC reduced these levels. Histopathology showed that cisplatin caused kidney tubular epithelial necrosis, luminal necrotic debris, tubular dilatation, interstitial inflammation, liver sinusoidal and central vein dilatation, conges
