Taurine protects cisplatin induced cardiotoxicity by modulating inflammatory and endoplasmic reticulum stress responses

Chowdhury et al. (2016) studied Cisplatin-induced cardiotoxicity. Taurine vs. Cisplatin alone was evaluated on Cisplatin-mediated cardiac ER stress dependent apoptotic death and inflammation. Taurine administration protected mice against cisplatin-induced cardiac damage by mitigating reactive oxygen species production, inflammation, and endoplasmic reticulum stress responses.
