Anticancer drug delivery with transferrin targeted polymeric chitosan vesicles [PDF]
The study reports the initial biological evaluation of targeted polymeric glycol chitosan vesicles as carrier systems for doxorubicin (Dox). Transferrin (Tf) was covalently bound to the Dox-loaded palmitoylated glycol chitosan (GCP) vesicles using ...

Comparative cardiac toxicity of anthracyclines in vitro and in vivo in the mouse. [PDF]
The antineoplastic efficacy of anthracyclines is limited by their cardiac toxicity. In this study, we evaluated the toxicity of doxorubicin, non-pegylated liposomal-delivered doxorubicin, and epirubicin in HL-1 adult cardiomyocytes in culture as well as ...

The Role of AMPK Activation for Cardioprotection in Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity
Doxorubicin is a commonly used chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of a range of cancers, but despite its success in improving cancer survival rates, doxorubicin is cardiotoxic and can lead to congestive heart failure.

Prophylactic use of carvedilol to prevent ventricular dysfunction in patients with cancer treated with doxorubicin [PDF]
Objective: Deterioration in ventricular function is often observed in patients treated with anthracyclines for cancer. There is a paucity of evidence on interventions that might provide cardio-protection.

Doxorubicin Caused Apoptosis of Mesenchymal Stem Cells via p38, JNK and p53 Pathway
Background/Aims: Doxorubicin is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent, but its clinical use is restricted because of a high risk of cardiotoxicity. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) may repair ischaemically damaged myocardium through ...
