The effect of vitamin C supplementation on neutropenia induced by cyclophosphamide in mice

ABSTRACT Neutropenia is one of the adverse effects caused by the administration of chemotherapy drugs. The present study aimed at investigating the effect of vitamin C supplementation in a model of immunosuppression induced by cyclophosphamide in mice. Vitamin C supplementation (50 mg/kg/day) admini...

The present study aimed at investigating the effect of vitamin C supplementation in a model of immunosuppression induced by cyclophosphamide in mice. Vitamin C supplementation (50 mg/kg/day) administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) for 7 consecutive days in adult Swiss albino female. Mice were divided into four groups (n= 8/group): 1. Control (only distilled water i.p.), 2. Cyclophosphamide group (cyclophosphamide i.p. 150 and 100 mg/kg on days 1 and 4, respectively and distilled water daily), 3. Vitamin C group (Vitamin C 50 mg/kg i.p. and distilled water daily), and 4. Cyclophosphamide and Vitamin C group (cyclophosphamide i.p. 150 and 100 mg/kg on days 1 and 4, respectively and vitamin C 50 mg/kg i.p. daily). Vitamin C did not interfere in leukocytes count, but when co-administered with cyclophosphamide, significant interaction was observed, intensifying the neutropenia caused by cyclophosphamide. Vitamin C did not influence body weight during treatment, but groups receiving cyclophosphamide had a significant weight loss from the third day of treatment until the end of experiment compared to the control group.
