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.

Protective effects of acute exercise prior to doxorubicin on cardiac function of breast cancer patients: A proof-of-concept RCT [PDF]
Background: Preclinical studies have reported that a single treadmill session performed 24 h prior to doxorubicin provides cardio-protection. We aimed to characterize the acute change in cardiac function following an initial doxorubicin treatment in ...

Identification of CREB3L1 as a Biomarker Predicting Doxorubicin Treatment Outcome. [PDF]
Doxorubicin has been shown to inhibit proliferation of cancer cells through proteolytic activation of CREB3L1 (cAMP response element binding protein 3-like 1), a transcription factor synthesized as a membrane-bound precursor.

Doxorubicin Selectively Inhibits Brain versus Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Gene Expression in Cultured Neonatal Rat Myocytes [PDF]
Doxorubicin is an antineoplastic agent with significant cardiotoxicity. We examined the effects of this agent on the expression of the natriuretic peptide (NP) genes in cultured neonatal rat atrial myocytes.

PI3K inhibition enhances doxorubicin-induced apoptosis in sarcoma cells [PDF]
We searched for a drug capable of sensitization of sarcoma cells to doxorubicin (DOX). We report that the dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor PI103 enhances the efficacy of DOX in several sarcoma cell lines and interacts with DOX in the induction of apoptosis ...

TP53 alteration determines the combinational cytotoxic effect of doxorubicin and an antioxidant NAC
The anticancer effect of doxorubicin is closely related to the generation of reactive oxygen species. On the contrary, doxorubicin-induced reactive oxygen species induces heart failure, a critical side effect of doxorubicin.
