| Abstract | Doxorubicin (DOX) is a broad spectrum anthracycline antibiotic used to treat a variety of cancers. Redox activation of DOX to form reactive oxygen species has been implicated in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. In this work we investigated DOX-induced apoptosis in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells and cardiomyocytes isolated from adult rat heart. Exposure of bovine aortic endothelial cells or myocytes to submicromolar levels of DOX induced significant apoptosis as measured by DNA fragmentation and terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated nick-end labeling assays. Pretreatment of cells with 100 μm nitrone spin traps, N-tert-butyl-α-phenylnitrone (PBN) or α-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)-N-tert-butylnitrone (POBN) dramatically inhibited DOX-induced apoptosis. Ebselen (20–50 μm), a glutathione peroxidase mimetic, also significantly inhibited apoptosis. DOX (0.5–1 μm) inactivated mitochondrial complex I by a superoxide-dependent mechanism. PBN (100 μm), POBN (100 μm), and ebselen (50 μm) restored complex I activity. These compounds also inhibited DOX-induced caspase-3 activation and cytochrome crelease. PBN and ebselen also restored glutathione levels in DOX-treated cells. We conclude that nitrone spin traps and ebselen inhibit the DOX-induced apoptotic signaling mechanism and that this antiapoptotic mechanism may be linked in part to the inhibition in formation or scavenging of hydrogen peroxide. Therapeutic strategies to mitigate DOX cardiotoxicity should be reexamined in light of these emerging antiapoptotic mechanisms of antioxidants. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
