New insights into the activities and toxicities of the old anticancer drug doxorubicin
The anthracycline drug doxorubicin is among the most used—and useful—chemotherapeutics. While doxorubicin is highly effective in the treatment of various hematopoietic malignancies and solid tumours, its application is limited by severe adverse effects ...

Co-targeting of DNA, RNA, and protein molecules provides optimal outcomes for treating osteosarcoma and pulmonary metastasis in spontaneous and experimental metastasis mouse models. [PDF]
Metastasis is a major cause of mortality for cancer patients and remains as the greatest challenge in cancer therapy. Driven by multiple factors, metastasis may not be controlled by the inhibition of single target.

Importance Patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS) have a median overall survival of less than 2 years. In a phase 2 study, an overall survival benefit in this population was observed with the addition of olaratumab to doxorubicin over ...

Targeting the differential addiction to anti-apoptotic BCL-2 family for cancer therapy [PDF]
BCL-2 family proteins are central regulators of mitochondrial apoptosis and validated anti-cancer targets. Using small cell lung cancer (SCLC) as a model, we demonstrated the presence of differential addiction of cancer cells to anti-apoptotic BCL-2, BCL-

Exposure to Doxorubicin Modulates the Cardiac Response to Isoproterenol in Male and Female Mice
Sex is a salient risk factor in the development of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Sex differences in the heart’s ability to respond to hypertrophic stimuli in doxorubicin-exposed animals have not been reported.

Doxorubicin Affects Testicular Lipids with Long-Chain (C18-C22) and Very Long-Chain (C24-C32) Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids [PDF]
Doxorubicin disrupts spermatogenesis by causing apoptosis of spermatogonia and primary spermatocytes. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of this agent on adult rat testicular lipids and their fatty acids.
