Sacubitril/valsartan mitigates cisplatin-induced liver injury through modulation of oxidative stress, Caspase-3 activity, and RXR-α signaling in experimental rats
Sacubitril/valsartan appears to protect the liver from cisplatin toxicity, primarily by inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis through caspase-3 suppression, and modulating RXR-α signaling. These results provide new insights into the mechanisms involved and suggest that VS may be a promising adjunct therapy to lessen cisplatin-induced hepatotoxicity during chemotherapy.
