Mukherjee, N.; Delay, E. R. published the artcile< Cyclophosphamide-induced disruption of umami taste functions and taste epithelium>, COA of Formula: C7H17Cl2N2O3P, the main research area is cyclophosphamide monohydrate taste bud epithelium monosodium glutamate IMP.

Clin. studies have reported taste dysfunctions developing in patients undergoing chemotherapy. This adverse side effect is a major concern for the doctors and patients because disrupted taste can reduce appetite, cause malnutrition, delay recovery, and affect quality of life. Cyclophosphamide (CYP) is a common atenoplastic drug used during chemotherapy and is thought to affect taste through learned tasted aversions. This study asked whether CYP also alters umami taste sensory functions and disrupts taste epithelium of mice. Behavioral tests focused on taste acuity, assessed by the ability of mice to discriminate between the taste qualities of two umami substances, monosodium glutamate (MSG) and IMP, and taste sensitivity, assessed by detection thresholds of MSG and IMP, after an IP injection (75 mg/kg) of CYP. The behavioral results revealed a two-phase disturbance in taste acuity and loss of sensitivity, the first phase occurring within 2-4 days after injection and the second occurring 9-12 days after injection. The number of fungiform papillae (with and without pores) decreased immediately after injection and did not begin to recover until 12 days after injection. Circumvallate taste buds began to show disturbances by 8 days after injection and evidence of recovery beginning 12 days after injection. Von Ebner glands were smaller and secreted less saliva 4 days postinjection but not later. These findings suggest the initial behavioral deficits may be because of cytotoxic effects of the drug on taste sensory tissues, whereas the second phase may be because of a disturbance of the taste cell replacement cycle.
