Mitochondrial transplantation (MT) is a new experimental approach that has demonstrated positive results reverting mitochondrial alterations in cardiac and kidney dysfunction mainly mediated by oxidative stress. On the other hand, cisplatin is an effective and widely used antineoplastic drug in treating several cancers; however, cisplatin has notorious side effects in different organs, such as the heart, kidneys, liver, and brain; the kidney being one of the most affected. The genitourinary system is the principal excretion pathway of cisplatin, since it is removed from the blood primarily by glomerular filtration and tubular secretion, and it may cause a sudden reduction in the renal function (acute kidney injury “AKI”), in part, by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and the consequent oxidative stress in the tubular segment. In addition, AKI may associate with cardiac alterations, as occurs in acute cardiorenal syndrome. Due to the high prevalence of renal and cardiac side effects produced by cisplatin, here we discuss the possible use of MT as a novel therapy that could protect tissues by alleviating mitochondrial dysfunction and reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production.

Mitochondrial Transplantation: Is It a Feasible Therapy to Prevent the Cardiorenal Side Effects of Cisplatin?
