Flavin 7® (F7) is a natural polyphenol-containing dietary supplement with potential antioxidant activity. Therefore, it might help to attenuate renal toxicity of chemotherapeutics. Materials and Methods: Cultured mouse renal proximal tubule cells were subjected to H2O2-mediated oxidative stress. Potential antioxidant effects of F7 were assessed by measuring the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial depolarization and injury (lactate dehydrogenase release as well as trypan blue exclusion) in cells that were pretreated with F7 prior to treatment with H2O2. Results: F7 pretreatment significantly attenuated H2O2-induced ROS production, mitochondrial depolarization and consequent injury in renal proximal tubule cells. Conclusion: F7 supplementation might be beneficial for cancer patients in order to prevent renal toxicity of anticancer drug- or cancer progression-related oxidative stress.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
