Project description:Cardiotoxicity linked to doxorubicin (DOX) is primarily caused by inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. The role of tubeimoside I (TBM) in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity remains ambiguous, despite growing evidence that it could reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in various diseases. This study was designed to investigate the role of TBM in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and uncover the underlying mechanisms. H9c2 cell line and C57BL/6 mice were used to construct an in vitro and in vivo model of DOX-induced myocardial injury, respectively. We observed that DOX treatment provoked inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis, which were significantly alleviated by TBM administration. Mechanistically, TBM attenuated DOX-induced downregulation of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), and SIRT3 inhibition abrogated the beneficial effects of TBM both in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, TBM eased inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by increasing the expression of SIRT3, suggesting that it holds great promise for treating DOX-induced cardiac injury.

Project description:Although it is known that the expression and activity of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) significantly decrease in doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiomyopathy, the role of interaction between SIRT1 and sestrin 2 (SESN2) is largely unknown. In this study, we investigated whether SESN2 could be a crucial target of SIRT1 and the effect of their regulatory interaction and mechanism on DOX-induced cardiac injury. Here, using DOX-treated cardiomyocytes and cardiac-specific Sirt1 knockout mice models, we found SIRT1 deficiency aggravated DOX-induced cardiac structural abnormalities and dysfunction, whereas the activation of SIRT1 by resveratrol (RES) treatment or SIRT1 overexpression possessed cardiac protective effects. Further studies indicated that SIRT1 exerted these beneficial effects by markedly attenuating DOX-induced oxidative damage and apoptosis in a SESN2-dependent manner. Knockdown of Sesn2 impaired RES/SIRT1-mediated protective effects, while upregulation of SESN2 efficiently rescued DOX-induced oxidative damage and apoptosis. Most importantly, SIRT1 activation could reduce DOX-induced SESN2 ubiquitination possibly through reducing the interaction of SESN2 with mouse double minute 2 (MDM2). The recovery of SESN2 stability in DOX-impaired primary cardiomyocytes by SIRT1 was confirmed by Mdm2-siRNA transfection. Taken together, our findings indicate that disrupting the interaction between SESN2 and MDM2 by SIRT1 to reduce the ubiquitination of SESN2 is a novel regulatory mechanism for protecting hearts from DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and suggest that the activation of SIRT1-SESN2 axis has potential as a therapeutic approach to prevent DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.

Project description:Doxorubicin- (DOX-) induced cardiotoxicity is associated with oxidative stress and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. The adaptor protein p66Shc regulates the cellular redox status and determines cell susceptibility to apoptosis. This study is aimed at investigating the involvement of sirtuin 1- (SIRT1-) mediated p66Shc inhibition in DOX-induced redox signalling and exploring the possible protective mechanisms of berberine (Ber) against DOX-triggered cardiac injury in rats and a cultured H9c2 cell line. Our results showed that the Ber pretreatment markedly increased CAT, SOD, and GSH-PX activities, decreased the levels of MDA, and improved the electrocardiogram and histopathological changes in the myocardium in DOX-treated rats (in vivo). Furthermore, Ber significantly ameliorated the DOX-induced oxidative insult and mitochondrial damage by adjusting the levels of intracellular ROS, ??m, and [Ca2+]m in H9c2 cells (in vitro). Importantly, the Ber pretreatment increased SIRT1 expression following DOX exposure but downregulated p66Shc. Consistent with the results demonstrating the SIRT1-mediated inhibition of p66Shc expression, the Ber pretreatment inhibited DOX-triggered cardiomyocyte apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction. After exposing H9c2 cells to DOX, the increased SIRT1 expression induced by Ber was abrogated by a SIRT1-specific inhibitor (EX527) or the use of siRNA against SIRT1. Accordingly, SIRT1 inhibition significantly abrogated the suppression of p66Shc expression and protection of Ber against DOX-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis. These results suggest that Ber protects the heart from DOX injury through SIRT1-mediated p66Shc suppression, offering a novel mechanism responsible for the protection of Ber against DOX-induced cardiomyopathy.

Project description:Doxorubicin (DOX) is limited in clinical application because of its cardiotoxicity. Oxidative stress and apoptosis are crucial in DOX-induced cardiac injury. Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is an FDA-approved oral drug with powerful effects to reduce oxidative stress and apoptosis through the Nrf2 pathway. This study was aimed to determine whether DMF can protect against DOX-induced cardiac injury. We used both neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) in vitro and DOX-induced cardiac toxicity in vivo to explore the effects of DMF. The results showed that DMF significantly improved cell viability and morphology in NRCMs. In addition, DMF alleviated DOX-induced cardiac injury in rats, as evidenced by decreased CK-MB, LDH levels, improved survival rates, cardiac function, and pathological changes. Moreover, DMF significantly inhibited cardiac oxidative stress by reducing MDA levels and increasing GSH, SOD, and GSH-px levels. And DMF also inhibited DOX-induced cardiac apoptosis by modulating Bax, Bcl-2 and cleaved caspase-3 expression. Moreover, DMF exerted its protective effects against DOX by promoting Nrf2 nuclear translocation, which activated its downstream antioxidant gene Hmox1. Silencing of Nrf2 attenuated the protective effects of DMF in NRCMs as manifested by increased intracellular oxidative stress, elevated apoptosis levels, and decreased cell viability. In addition, DMF showed no protective effects on the viability of DOX-treated tumor cells, which suggested that DMF does not interfere with the antitumor effect of DOX in vitro. In conclusion, our data confirmed that DMF alleviated DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by regulating oxidative stress and apoptosis through the Nrf2 pathway. DMF may serve as a new candidate to alleviate DOX-related cardiotoxicity in the future.

Project description:Doxorubicin (DOX), a chemotherapeutic drug widely used in the clinical setting, is known to cause serious cardiotoxicity and greatly reduces the survival rate as well as quality of life of patients receiving chemotherapy. Peroxisome proliferation activated receptor ? (PPAR?) is a type of ligand activated receptor of the nuclear hormone receptor family that regulates multiple gene expression. Several studies have shown that PPAR? has anti-apoptotic and cardio-protective effects. However, its role in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity is rarely reported. In this study, we observed decreased expression of PPAR? in the heart of tumor-bearing mice already treated with DOX; however, no such phenomenon was observed in tumor tissues. Next, we observed that the PPAR? agonist, fenofibrate (FENO), had no effect on tumor progression; however, it enhanced cardiac function in tumor-bearing mice treated with DOX. Subsequently, recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (rAAV9) was used to manipulate the expression of PPAR? in the heart of DOX-induced mice. Our results showed that PPAR? gene delivery reduced cardiac dysfunction and mitochondria-dependent apoptosis in DOX-induced mice. Furthermore, we found that PPAR? directly regulated the expression of mesenchyme homeobox 1 (MEOX1). Most importantly, the cardioprotective effects of PPAR? could be neutralized by knocking down MEOX1. In summary, PPAR? plays a vital role in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and is a promising treatment target.

Project description:Doxorubicin (DOX) cardiotoxicity is an important factor of heart failure. The only clinically approved drug is dexrazoxane, while its side effect of secondary malignancies severely limited its application. It is urgent to find other alternative efficacious molecular for these chemotherapy patients. Colchicine is a safe and well tolerated anti-inflammation drug which also functions in attenuating the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. High dose of colchicine was reported block the autophagosome-lysosome fusion in cancer cells due to its destabilization effect to the microtubule system, while how colchicine affects the autophagic flux in cardiomyocytes is largely unknown. Recent years low dose of colchicine administration was reported helpful to the patients with pericarditis, postprocedural atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease, most of the research attributed it to its anti-inflammation effect. Whether the autophagic flux regulated by colchicine also benefits to DOX induced heart failure remains unclear. Doxorubicin (DOX) administration was used to establish heart failure models in vivo and in vitro. Results showed that DOX blocked the autophagic vacuoles degradation, leading to damaged mitochondria and ROS accumulation. Heart failure characteristics were obviously improved after low dose of colchicine administration. Mechanistically, low dose of colchicine promoted the autolysosome degradation, cleared the damaged mitochondria, and ROS accumulation induced by the DOX and as a result attenuated DOX cardiotoxicity.

Project description:Doxorubicin (DOX) has received attention due to dose-dependent cardiotoxicity through abnormal redox cycling. Native fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) is known for its anti-oxidative benefits in cardiovascular diseases, but possesses a potential tumorigenic risk. Coincidentally, the anti-proliferative properties of resveratrol (RES) have attracted attention as alternatives or auxiliary therapy when combined with other chemotherapeutic drugs. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore the therapeutic potential and underlying mechanisms of co-treatment of RES and FGF1 in a DOX-treated model. Here, various cancer cells were applied to determine whether RES could antagonize the oncogenesis effect of FGF1. In addition, C57BL/6J mice and H9c2 cells were used to testify the therapeutic potential of a co-treatment of RES and FGF1 against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. We found RES could reduce the growth-promoting activity of FGF1. Additionally, the co-treatment of RES and FGF1 exhibits a more powerful cardio-antioxidative capacity in a DOX-treated model. The inhibition of SIRT1/NRF2 abolished RES in combination with FGF1 on cardioprotective action. Further mechanism analysis demonstrated that SIRT1 and NRF2 might form a positive feedback loop to perform the protective effect on DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. These favorable anti-oxidative activities and reduced proliferative properties of the co-treatment of RES and FGF1 provided a promising therapy for anthracycline cardiotoxicity during chemotherapy.

Project description:Since the utilization of anthracyclines in cancer therapy, severe cardiotoxicity has become a major obstacle. The major challenge in treating cancer patients with anthracyclines is minimizing cardiotoxicity without compromising antitumor efficacy. Herein, histone deacetylase SIRT6 expression was reduced in plasma of patients treated with anthracyclines-based chemotherapy regimens. Furthermore, overexpression of SIRT6 alleviated doxorubicin-induced cytotoxicity in cardiomyocytes, and potentiated cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in multiple cancer cell lines. Moreover, SIRT6 overexpression ameliorated doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and potentiated antitumor efficacy of doxorubicin in mice, suggesting that SIRT6 overexpression could be an adjunctive therapeutic strategy during doxorubicin treatment. Mechanistically, doxorubicin-impaired mitochondria led to decreased mitochondrial respiration and ATP production. And SIRT6 enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis and mitophagy by deacetylating and inhibiting Sgk1. Thus, SIRT6 overexpression coordinated metabolic remodeling from glycolysis to mitochondrial respiration during doxorubicin treatment, which was more conducive to cardiomyocyte metabolism, thus protecting cardiomyocytes but not cancer cells against doxorubicin-induced energy deficiency. In addition, ellagic acid, a natural compound that activates SIRT6, alleviated doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and enhanced doxorubicin-mediated tumor regression in tumor-bearing mice. These findings provide a preclinical rationale for preventing cardiotoxicity by activating SIRT6 in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, but also advancing the understanding of the crucial role of SIRT6 in mitochondrial homeostasis.

Project description:The clinical use of doxorubicin for cancer therapy is limited by its cardiotoxicity, which involves cardiomyocyte apoptosis and oxidative stress. Previously, we showed that general control nonderepressible 2 (GCN2), an eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (eIF2α) kinase, impairs the ventricular adaptation to chronic pressure overload by affecting cardiomyocyte apoptosis. However, the impact of GCN2 on Dox-induced cardiotoxicity has not been investigated. In the present study, we treated wild type (WT) and Gcn2-/- mice with four intraperitoneal injections (5 mg/kg/week) to induce cardiomyopathy. After Dox treatment, Gcn2-/- mice developed less contractile dysfunction, myocardial fibrosis, apoptosis, and oxidative stress compared with WT mice. In the hearts of the Dox-treated mice, GCN2 deficiency attenuated eIF2α phosphorylation and induction of its downstream targets, activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), and preserved the expression of anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2 and mitochondrial uncoupling protein-2(UCP2). Furthermore, we found that GCN2 knockdown attenuated, whereas GCN2 overexpression exacerbated, Dox-induced cell death, oxidative stress and reduction of Bcl-2 and UCP2 expression through the eIF2α-CHOP-dependent pathway in H9C2 cells. Collectively, our data provide solid evidence that GCN2 has a marked effect on Dox induced myocardial apoptosis and oxidative stress. Our findings suggest that strategies to inhibit GCN2 activity in cardiomyocyte may provide a novel approach to attenuate Dox-related cardiotoxicity.

Project description:Doxorubicin (DOX) is an effective chemotherapeutic drug in the treatment of various types of cancers. However, its clinical application has been largely limited by potential development of cardiotoxicity. Previously we have shown that ultra-violet radiation resistance-associated gene (UVRAG), an autophagy-related protein, is essential for the maintenance of autophagic flux in the heart under physiological conditions. Here, we sought to determine the role of UVRAG-mediated autophagy in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Mouse models of acute or chronic DOX-induced cardiotoxicity were established. UVRAG deficiency exacerbated DOX-induced mortality and cardiotoxicity manifested by increased cytoplasmic vacuolization, enhanced collagen accumulation, elevated serum activities of lactate dehydrogenase and myocardial muscle creatine kinase, higher ROS levels, aggravated apoptosis and more depressed cardiac function. Autophagic flux was impaired in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. UVRAG deficiency aggravated impaired autophagic flux in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Intermittent fasting restored autophagy and ameliorated pathological alterations of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Collectively, our data suggest that UVRAG deficiency exacerbates DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, at least in part, through aggravation of DOX-induced impaired autophagic flux. Intermittent fasting, which restores blunted autophagic flux and ameliorates pathology in the mouse models of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, may be used as a potential preventive or therapeutic approach for DOX cardiotoxicity.
