Abstract

Doxorubicin (Dox) has been limited in clinical application due to its cardiac toxicity that varies with the dose. This study aimed to explore how Rhein modulates Dox-induced myocardial toxicity. The general condition and echocardiographic changes of mice were observed to evaluate cardiac function and structure, with myocardial cell injury and apoptosis checked by TUNEL and HE staining. The ELISA assessed markers of myocardial damage and inflammation. The TCMSP and SwissTargetPrediction databases were used to retrieve Rhein's targets while GeneCards was used to find genes related to Dox-induced myocardial injury. Intersection genes were analyzed by Protein-Protein Interaction Networks. The core network genes underwent GO and KEGG enrichment analysis using R software. Western blot was used to detect protein expression. Compared to the Dox group, there was no remarkable difference in heart mass /body mass ratio in the Rhein+Dox group. However, heart mass/tibia length increased. Mice in the Rhein+Dox group had significantly increased LVEF, LVPWs, and LVFS compared to those in the Dox group. Myocardial cell damage, inflammation, and apoptosis significantly reduced in the Rhein+Dox group compared to the model group. Eleven core network genes were selected. Further, Rhein+Dox group showed significantly downregulated expression of p38/p-p38, HSP90AA1, c-Jun/p-c-Jun, c-Fos/p-c-Fos, Bax, and cleaved-caspase-3/caspase-3 while Bcl-2 expression significantly upregulated compared to the Dox group. The study suggests that Rhein mediates cardioprotection against Dox-induced myocardial injury, at least partly, by influencing multiple core genes in the MAPK signaling pathway to inhibit myocardial cell apoptosis.

大黄霉素通过抑制 p38 MAPK/HSP90/c-Jun/c-Fos 通路介导的细胞凋亡减轻多柔比星诱发的心肌损伤
由于多柔比星(Dox)的心脏毒性随剂量而变化,其临床应用一直受到限制。本研究旨在探索大黄酸如何调节 Dox 诱导的心肌毒性。研究人员观察了小鼠的一般状况和超声心动图变化,以评估心脏功能和结构,并通过 TUNEL 和 HE 染色检查心肌细胞损伤和凋亡情况。ELISA 评估心肌损伤和炎症的标志物。TCMSP和SwissTargetPrediction数据库用于检索Rhein的靶标,而GeneCards则用于寻找与Dox诱导的心肌损伤相关的基因。交叉基因通过蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用网络进行分析。使用 R 软件对核心网络基因进行 GO 和 KEGG 富集分析。采用 Western 印迹检测蛋白质表达。与Dox组相比,Rhein+Dox组的心脏质量/体重比没有显著差异。然而,心脏质量/胫骨长度有所增加。与 Dox 组相比,Rhein+Dox 组小鼠的 LVEF、LVPWs 和 LVFS 显著增加。与模型组相比,Rhein+Dox组的心肌细胞损伤、炎症和细胞凋亡明显减少。11 个核心网络基因被选中。此外,与Dox组相比,Rhein+Dox组p38/p-p38、HSP90AA1、c-Jun/p-c-Jun、c-Fos/p-c-Fos、Bax和裂解天冬酶-3/caspase-3的表达明显下调,而Bcl-2的表达明显上调。该研究表明,Rhein至少部分通过影响MAPK信号通路中的多个核心基因来抑制心肌细胞凋亡,从而对Dox诱导的心肌损伤起到保护作用。

期刊介绍: Cardiovascular Toxicology is the only journal dedicated to publishing contemporary issues, timely reviews, and experimental and clinical data on toxicological aspects of cardiovascular disease. CT publishes papers that will elucidate the effects, molecular mechanisms, and signaling pathways of environmental toxicants on the cardiovascular system. Also covered are the detrimental effects of new cardiovascular drugs, and cardiovascular effects of non-cardiovascular drugs, anti-cancer chemotherapy, and gene therapy. In addition, Cardiovascular Toxicology reports safety and toxicological data on new cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular drugs.
