Abstract Background Chemotherapy in cancer patients can be associated with serious short- and long-term adverse neurological effects such as leukoencephalopathy and cognitive impairment even when therapy is delivered systemically. The underlying cellular basis for these adverse effects is poorly understood. Results We found that three mainstream chemotherapeutic agents - carmustine BCNU cisplatin and cytosine arabinoside cytarabine representing two DNA cross-linking agents and an antimetabolite respectively - applied at clinically relevant exposure levels to cultured cells are more toxic for the progenitor cells of the CNS and for nondividing oligodendrocytes than they are for multiple cancer cell lines. Enhancement of cell death and suppression of cell division were seen in vitro and in vivo. When administered systemically in mice these chemotherapeutic agents were associated with increased cell death and decreased cell division in the subventricular .
