Anthracycline Cardiotoxicity
In this issue, Gupta et al describe a novel mechanism, mediated through alterations in the RNA-binding protein QKI (Quaking), responsible for anthracycline-mediated cardiotoxicity. Performing global transcriptional profiling in murine hearts exposed to doxorubicin, they identified 5 differentially expressed RNA-binding proteins: 4 of which were upregulated and 1 QKI which was downregulated. QKI...
متن کاملAnthracycline Cardiotoxicity
Anthracyclines remain an integral part of chemotherapy regimens in many adult and pediatric cancers but cause myocardial damage that may manifest as either subclinical decrements of left ventricular ejection function or overt cardiomyopathy. Anthracycline-related cardiotoxicity is doselimiting, and the risks of congestive heart failure increase with higher cumulative doses, particularly above 5...

متن کاملDexrazoxane for Preventing Anthracycline Cardiotoxicity in Children with Solid Tumors
This study attempted to assess the incidence and outcome of anthracycline cardiotoxicity and the role of dexrazoxane as a cardioprotectant in childhood solid tumors. The dexrazoxane group included 47 patients and the control group of historical cohort included 42. Dexrazoxane was given in the 10:1 ratio to doxorubicin. Fractional shortening and systolic and diastolic left ventricular diameters ...
متن کاملThe role of iron in anthracycline cardiotoxicity
The clinical use of the antitumor anthracycline Doxorubicin is limited by the risk of severe cardiotoxicity. The mechanisms underlying anthracycline-dependent cardiotoxicity are multiple and remain uncompletely understood, but many observations indicate that interactions with cellular iron metabolism are important. Convincing evidence showing that iron plays a role in Doxorubicin cardiotoxicity...
