Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity

Abstract: Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most effective antineoplastic drugs. However, its clinical use is largely limited by potential dose-dependent cardiotoxicity. To date, the mechanisms of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity remains incompletely understood. More importantly, no efficient therapeutic strategy is available to counteract DOX-induced cardiomyopathy, underscoring the importance of the prevention of this disease. In this chapter, we first describe the pathophysiology of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. We then update… Show more

“…Oxidative stress, which is mainly caused by the overaccumulation of ROS, is one of the major contributors to CVDs [4,5,26] . DOX has been reported to impair antioxidant enzyme activity, increase ROS levels, and ultimately cause damage to cardiomyocytes [27,28] . Therefore, the cellular ROS production in DOX‐treated H9c2 cells was examined by staining the cells with 2′,7′‐dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DFCH‐DA).…”

“…[4,5,26] DOX has been reported to impair antioxidant enzyme activity, increase ROS levels, and ultimately cause damage to cardiomyocytes. [27,28] Therefore, the cellular ROS production in DOX-treated H9c2 cells was examined by staining the cells with 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DFCH-DA). The results showed a higher green fluorescence intensity in DOX-treated H9c2 cells compared to the control group, indicating that DOXinduced ROS overaccumulation (Figure 7B -C).…”

“…FMT obtained a similar effect implemented a day after doxorubicin administration. Then attenuation of doxorubicin-induced dysbiosis and heart function improvement were assessed by left ventricular ejection fraction, and loss of cardiac fibrosis was observed [56]. This must be evaluated in clinical practice, as it raises the possibility of dealing with anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity.…”

“…Many heart diseases are associated with excess production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) [57] . If the balance between ROS production and the antioxidant system is disrupted in ROS production, oxidative stress occurs, which triggers several deleterious events, including DNA damage [57][58][59] . Also, insufficient antioxidant defense systems in the heart make it vulnerable to ROSmediated cellular damage [60,61] .…”
