“The higher doses of carboplatin (192 and 256 mg/kg) significantly increased cochlear lipid peroxidation (132 and 146% of control) and depleted cochlear glutathione levels (66 and 63% of control), respectively.”
“ Glutathione decreased the available CBDCA concentration, decreased apoptosis and alleviating oxidative stress, thus reducing the actual effective concentration.”
“ GSH enhances the reactivity of three anti-cancer drugs (cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplatin) to Cox17, but suppresses the reaction of transplatin.”
“The low reactivity of carboplatin with metallothionein and glutathione suggests that its low cytotoxic activities are not due to reaction of Pt2+ with cellular thiols.”

“In addition, the BSO and carboplatin chinchillas also had larger decreases in evoked response amplitudes suggesting that GSH depletion potentiated the ototoxicity of carboplatin.”
