The effect of MEK1/2 inhibitors on cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) and cancer growth in mice.
Model: Cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury; low-dose model of cisplatin 12.5 mg/kg once weekly for 4 weeks in mice bearing subcutaneous CMT167 KRAS-mutant lung carcinoma flank tumours, plus a short-term model of cisplatin 30 mg/kg on day 0 with sacrifice on day 3
U0126 significantly improved kidney function, acute tubular necrosis and tubular apoptosis and also reduced tumour weight and volume. Trametinib did not protect against acute kidney injury in the 4 week model but decreased tumour growth more than cisplatin and prolonged survival in the high-dose mo…
