Omega-3 Kills Cancer Cells - Science Daily, 4/1/09 -
"Docosahexanoic acid (DHA), an omega-3 fatty acid
found in fish oils, has been shown to reduce the size of tumours and enhance
the positive effects of the chemotherapy drug cisplatin, while limiting its
harmful side effects ... at the molecular level, DHA acts by reducing
leukocytosis (white blood cell accumulation), systemic inflammation, and
oxidative stress – all processes that have been linked with tumour growth"

Nephroprotective Effects of Anthocyanin from the Fruits of Panax
ginseng (GFA) on Cisplatin-Induced Acute Kidney Injury in Mice -
Phytother Res. 2017 Jul 21 - "Cisplatin is
an effective anticancer chemotherapeutic agent, but the use of
cisplatin in the clinic is severely limited by side effects.
Nephrotoxicity is a major factor that contributes to the side
effects of cisplatin chemotherapy. The aim of this research was to
survey the nephroprotective effects of anthocyanin from the fruits
of Panax ginseng (GFA) in a murine model of cisplatin-induced acute
kidney injury ... In conclusion, the findings from the present
investigation demonstrate that GFA pre-administration can
significantly prevent cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, which may be
related to its antioxidant, anti-apoptotic and antiinflammatory
effects" - See Panax ginseng

Effect of Curcumin on Inflammation and Oxidative Stress in
Cisplatin-Induced Experimental Nephrotoxicity - J Agric Food
Chem. 2007 Nov 15 -
"curcumin has a protective effect on
cisplatin-induced experimental nephrotoxicity, and this effect is
attributed to its direct anti-inflammatory and strong antioxidant
profile. Hence, curcumin has a strong potential to be used as a
therapeutic adjuvant in cisplatin nephrotoxicity" - See
Curcumin/turmeric products at iHerb.
