Abstract
Cisplatin, cis-diammine-dichloroplatin (CP) is a widely used anticancer drug. But its curative effect is connected with nephrotoxicity. Reaction products of CP and low molecular weight proteins are involved in the toxic effect. Passage through membranes and binding to proteins are determined among other things by physicochemical properties of the substance. Therefore it was decided to investigate the nephrotoxicity of a CP derivative which is very similar in structure, but differs in lipophilicity. This iodinized derivative, cis-diamminediiodoplatin (CP-J2), was determined to have a higher n-octanol/water partitition coefficient than CP (0.25 and 0 respectively).
