Curcumin improves mitomycin C induced impairment of renal function

OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of curcumin(Cur) improving mitomycin C (MMC) induced renal injury. METHODS MCF-7 breast cancer xenografts were set up on BALB/c nude mice. Cur 100 mg·kg^-1 was ip given once a day, while MMC 1, 1.5 and 2 mg·kg^-1 was ip given once every 5 d. In Cur+MMC group, drug administration was at the same dosage and frequency as the single drug treatment. Body mass, the survival number and tumor mass were observed. The drug distribution in kidneys were detected by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Serum creatinine(Cre) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were determined. RESULTS The combination treatment of Cur and MMC resulted in eusitia of mice. No mice died in any group. However, the survival number of mice was 4/8 and 7/8 in MMC 1.5 and 2 mg·kg^-1 alone groups, respectively. The impairment of renal function was induced by MMC 1.5 and 2 mg·kg^-1. Compared with MMC group, serum Cre and BUN were reduced by 41% and 34% in Cur 100 mg·kg^-1 combined with MMC 1.5 and 2 mg·kg^-1 groups, respectively. Compared with MMC 1.5 and 2 mg·kg^-1 groups, MMC distribution in kidneys in Cur+MMC 1 and 2.5 mg·kg^-1 groups were reduced by 88% (P<0.01) and 84% (P<0.01), respectively. CONCLUSION Cur can reduce the dosage of MMC in breast cancer and improve MMC-induced impairment of renal function by reducing the distribution of MMC in kidneys.
