Xu J, Lv M, Ni X. Marein Alleviates Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity through FAK/AKT Pathway Modulation while Potentiating its Anticancer Activity. Cardiovasc Toxicol 2024; 24:818-835.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is an effective anticancer agent, yet its clinical utility is hampered by dose-dependent cardiotoxicity. This study explores the cardioprotective potential of Marein (Mar) against DOX-induced cardiac injury and elucidates underlying molecular mechanisms. Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) and murine models were employed to assess the impact of Mar on DOX-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). In vitro, cell viability, oxidative stress were evaluated. In vivo, a chronic injection method was employed to induce a DIC mouse model, followed by eight weeks of Mar treatment. Cardiac function, histopathology, and markers of cardiotoxicity were assessed. In vitro, Mar treatment demonstrated significant cardioprotective effects in vivo, as evidenced by improved cardiac function and reduced indicators of cardiac damage. Mechanistically, Mar reduced inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes, potentially via activation of the Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK)/AKT pathway. Mar also exhibited an anti-ferroptosis effect. Interestingly, Mar did not compromise DOX's efficacy in cancer cells, suggesting a dual benefit in onco-cardiology. Molecular docking studies suggested a potential interaction between Mar and FAK. This study demonstrates Mar's potential as a mitigator of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, offering a translational perspective on its clinical application. By activating the FAK/AKT pathway, Mar exerts protective effects against DOX-induced cardiomyocyte damage, highlighting its promise in onco-cardiology. Further research is warranted to validate these findings and advance Mar as a potential adjunctive therapy in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays a key role in the pathogenesis of several organ damages. Studies show that excessive ER stress (ERS) can destroy cellular homeostasis, causing cell damage and physiological dysfunction in various organs. In recent years, Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) has become a research hotspot on ERS. Increasing evidence suggests that SIRT1 plays a positive role in various ERS-induced organ damage via multiple mechanisms, including inhibiting cellular apoptosis and promoting autophagy. SIRT1 can also alleviate liver, heart, lung, kidney, and intestinal damage by inhibiting ERS. We discuss the possible mechanism of SIRT1, explore potential therapeutic targets of diseases, and provide a theoretical basis for treating ERS-related diseases.

Abstract
Cancer therapy-induced heart injury is a significant concern for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and also targeted molecular therapy. The use of these treatments can lead to oxidative stress and cardiomyocyte damage in the heart, which can result in heart failure and other cardiac complications. Experimental studies have revealed that chemotherapy drugs such as doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide can cause severe side effects such as cardiac fibrosis, electrophysiological remodeling, chronic oxidative stress and inflammation, etc., which may increase risk of cardiac disorders and attacks for patients that underwent chemotherapy. Similar consequences may also be observed for patients that undergo radiotherapy for left breast or lung malignancies. Polyphenols, a group of natural compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, have shown the potential in protecting against cancer therapy-induced heart injury. These compounds have been found to reduce oxidative stress, necrosis and apoptosis in the heart, thereby preserving cardiac function. In recent years, nanoparticles loaded with polyphenols have also provided for the delivery of these compounds and increasing their efficacy in different organs. These nanoparticles can improve the bioavailability and efficacy of polyphenols while minimizing their toxicity. This review article summarizes the current understanding of the protective effects of polyphenols and nanoparticles loaded with polyphenols against cancer therapy-induced heart injury. The article discusses the mechanisms by which polyphenols protect the heart, including antioxidant and anti-inflammation abilities. The article also highlights the potential benefits of using nanoparticles for the delivery of polyphenols.

Abstract
The study of mechanisms underlying cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin and the development of strategies to mitigate doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity are the most relevant issues of modern cardio-oncology. This is due to the high prevalence of cancer in the population and the need for frequent use of highly effective chemotherapeutic agents, in particular anthracyclines, for optimal management of cancer patients. However, while being a potent agent to counteract cancer, doxorubicin also affects the cardiovascular systems of patients undergoing chemotherapy in a significant and unfavorable fashion. Consecutively reviewed in this article are risk factors and mechanisms of doxorubicin cardiotoxicity, and the essential strategies to mitigate cardiotoxic effects of doxorubicin treatment in cancer patients are discussed.

Resveratrol Suppresses Bupivacaine-Induced Spinal Neurotoxicity in Rats by Inhibiting Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress via SIRT1 Modulation. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 2023:1176232. [PMID: 36865484 PMCID: PMC9974252 DOI: 10.1155/2023/1176232] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Revised: 10/09/2022] [Accepted: 10/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/23/2023]
Abstract
Bupivacaine (BUP) may cause neurotoxic effects after spinal anesthesia. Resveratrol (RSV), a natural agonist of Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1), protects various tissues and organs from damage by regulating endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The aim of this study is to explore whether RSV could alleviate the neurotoxicity induced by bupivacaine via regulating ER stress. We established a model of bupivacaine-induced spinal neurotoxicity in rats using intrathecal injection of 5% bupivacaine. The protective effect of RSV was evaluated by injecting intrathecally with 30 μg/μL RSV in total of 10 μL per day for 4 consecutive days. On day 3 after bupivacaine administration, tail-flick latency (TFL) tests and the Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan (BBB) locomotor scores were assessed to neurological function, and the lumbar enlargement of the spinal cord was obtained. H&E and Nissl staining were used to evaluate the histomorphological changes and the number of survival neurons. TUNEL staining was conducted to determine apoptotic cells. The expression of proteins was detected by IHC, immunofluorescence, and western blot. The mRNA level of SIRT1 was determined by RT-PCR. Bupivacaine caused spinal cord neurotoxicity by inducing cell apoptosis and triggering ER stress. RSV treatment promoted the recovery of neurological dysfunction after bupivacaine administration by suppressing neuronal apoptosis and ER stress. Furthermore, RSV upregulated SIRT1 expression and inhibited PERK signaling pathway activation. In summary, resveratrol suppresses bupivacaine-induced spinal neurotoxicity in rats by inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress via SIRT1 modulation.

Abstract
Immune reactions are involved in both tumour and normal tissue in response to therapy. Elevated secretion of certain chemokines, exosomes and cytokines triggers inflammation, pain, fibrosis and ulceration among other normal tissue side effects. On the other hand, secretion of tumour-promoting molecules suppresses activity of anticancer immune cells and facilitates the proliferation of malignant cells. Novel anticancer drugs such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) boost anticancer immunity via inducing the proliferation of anticancer cells such as natural killer (NK) cells and CD8+ T lymphocytes. Certain chemotherapy drugs and radiotherapy may induce anticancer immunity in the tumour, however, both have severe side effects for normal tissues through stimulation of several immune responses. Thus, administration of natural products with low side effects may be a promising approach to modulate the immune system in both tumour and normal organs. Resveratrol is a well-known phenol with diverse effects on normal tissues and tumours. To date, a large number of experiments have confirmed the potential of resveratrol as an anticancer adjuvant. This review focuses on ensuing stimulation or suppression of immune responses in both tumour and normal tissue after radiotherapy or anticancer drugs. Later on, the immunoregulatory effects of resveratrol in both tumour and normal tissue following exposure to anticancer agents will be discussed.

Abstract
AbstractDoxorubicin (DOX), which is widely used in cancer treatment, can induce cardiomyopathy. One of the main mechanisms whereby DOX induces cardiotoxicity involves pyroptosis through the NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and gasdermin D (GSDMD). Increased NAPDH oxidase (NOX) and oxidative stress trigger pyroptosis. Exogenous 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) decreases reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by inactivating NOX. Here, we examined whether 8-OHdG treatment can attenuate DOX-induced pyroptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Exposure to DOX increased the peroxidative glutathione redox status and NOX1/2/4, toll-like receptor (TLR)2/4, and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) expression, while an additional 8-OHdG treatment attenuated these effects. Furthermore, DOX induced higher expression of NLRP3 inflammasome components, including NLRP3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a c-terminal caspase recruitment domain (ASC), and pro-caspase-1. Moreover, it increased caspase-1 activity, a marker of pyroptosis, and interleukin (IL)-1β expression. All these effects were attenuated by 8-OHdG treatment. In addition, the expression of the cardiotoxicity markers, atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) was increased by DOX, whereas the increase of ANP and BNP induced by DOX treatment was reversed by 8-OHdG. In conclusion, exogenous 8-OHdG attenuated DOX-induced pyroptosis by decreasing the expression of NOX1/2/3, TLR2/4, and NF-κB. Thus, 8-OHdG may attenuate DOX-induced cardiotoxicity through the inhibition of pyroptosis.

Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, the neoplasm is one of the main reasons for morbidity and mortality worldwide. At the same time, application of cytostatic drugs like an independent type of cancer treatment and in combination with surgical methods, is often associated with the development of cardiovascular complications both in the early and in the delayed period of treatment. Doxorubicin (DOX) is the most commonly used cytotoxic anthracycline antibiotic. DOX can cause both acute and delayed side effects. The problem is still not solved, as evidenced by the continued activity of researchers in terms of developing approaches for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular complications. It is known, the heart muscle consists of cardiomyocytes connected by intercalated discs (ID), which ensure the structural, electrical, metabolic unity of the heart. Various defects in the ID proteins can lead to the development of cardiovascular diseases of various etiologies, including DOX-induced cardiomyopathy. The search for ways to influence the functioning of ID proteins of the cardiac muscle can become the basis for the creation of new therapeutic approaches to the treatment and prevention of cardiac pathologies. SIRT1 may be an interesting cardioprotective variant due to its wide functional significance. SIRT1 activation triggers nuclear transcription programs that increase the efficiency of cellular, mitochondrial metabolism, increases resistance to oxidative stress, and promotes cell survival. It can be assumed that SIRT1 can not only provide a protective effect at the cardiomyocytes level, leading to an improvement in mitochondrial and metabolic functions, reducing the effects of oxidative stress and inflammatory processes, but also have a protective effect on the functioning of IDs structures of the cardiac muscle.

Resveratrol and FGF1 Synergistically Ameliorates Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity via Activation of SIRT1-NRF2 Pathway. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14194017.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) has received attention due to dose-dependent cardiotoxicity through abnormal redox cycling. Native fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) is known for its anti-oxidative benefits in cardiovascular diseases, but possesses a potential tumorigenic risk. Coincidentally, the anti-proliferative properties of resveratrol (RES) have attracted attention as alternatives or auxiliary therapy when combined with other chemotherapeutic drugs. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore the therapeutic potential and underlying mechanisms of co-treatment of RES and FGF1 in a DOX-treated model. Here, various cancer cells were applied to determine whether RES could antagonize the oncogenesis effect of FGF1. In addition, C57BL/6J mice and H9c2 cells were used to testify the therapeutic potential of a co-treatment of RES and FGF1 against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. We found RES could reduce the growth-promoting activity of FGF1. Additionally, the co-treatment of RES and FGF1 exhibits a more powerful cardio-antioxidative capacity in a DOX-treated model. The inhibition of SIRT1/NRF2 abolished RES in combination with FGF1 on cardioprotective action. Further mechanism analysis demonstrated that SIRT1 and NRF2 might form a positive feedback loop to perform the protective effect on DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. These favorable anti-oxidative activities and reduced proliferative properties of the co-treatment of RES and FGF1 provided a promising therapy for anthracycline cardiotoxicity during chemotherapy.

Abstract
The prevalence of cardiovascular disease, oxidative stress-related complications, and chronic age-related illnesses is gradually increasing worldwide. Several causes include the ineffectiveness of medicinal treatment therapies, their toxicity, their inability to provide radical solutions in some diseases, and the necessity of multiple drug therapy in certain chronic diseases. It is therefore necessary for alternative treatment methods to be sought. In this review, polyphenols were identified and classified according to their chemical structure, and the sources of these polyphenol molecules are indicated. The cardioprotective, ROS scavenging, anti-aging, anticancer properties of polyphenolic compounds have been demonstrated by the results of many studies, and these natural antioxidant molecules are potential alternative therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a common cardiovascular disease with complex pathogenesis, in which multiple pathways and their interweaving regulatory mechanism remain unclear. The primary transcription factor NF-κB plays a critical role in AS via modulating the expression of a series of inflammatory mediators under various stimuli such as cytokines, microbial antigens, and intracellular stresses. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, caused by the disrupted synthesis and secretion of protein, links inflammation, metabolic signals, and other cellular processes via the unfolded protein response (UPR). Both NF-κB and ER stress share the intersection regarding their molecular regulation and function and are regarded as critical individual contributors to AS. In this review, we summarize the multiple interactions between NF-κB and ER stress activation, including the UPR, NLRP3 inflammasome, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, which have been ignored in the pathogenesis of AS. Given the multiple links between NF-κB and ER stress, we speculate that the integrated network contributes to the understanding of molecular mechanisms of AS. This review aims to provide an insight into these interactions and their underlying roles in the progression of AS, highlighting potential pharmacological targets against the atherosclerotic inflammatory process.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (Dox) is a widely used anti-cancer drug that has a significant limitation, which is cardiotoxicity. Its cardiotoxic side effect is dose dependent and occurs through any age. Dox has been known to exert its toxic effect through oxidative stress, but an emerging mechanism is endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress that activates proapoptotic pathway involving PERK/ATF4/CHOP axis. These stresses lead to dysfunction of myocardium associated with cell death. Although accumulating evidence support their involvement to Dox-induced cardiotoxicity, the mechanism is not well elucidated. Protein arginine methyltransferases 1 (PRMT1) has been known to play a role in cardiomyocyte cell survival through modulation of ER response. In this study, we demonstrate an important role of PRMT1 in Dox-induced cardiotoxicity via ER stress. Depletion of PRMT1 in H9c2 cardiomyocytes enhanced Dox-stimulated cell death, and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and DNA damage by enhancing the levels of proapoptotic cleaved Caspase-3 and γH2AX in response to Dox. Consistently, overexpression of PRMT1 attenuated the apoptotic effect of Dox. In addition, the acute treatment of Dox induced a substantial increase in PRMT1 activity and the translocation of PRMT1 to ER. Overexpression of PRMT1 in cardiomyocyte diminished Dox-induced ER stress, and ATF4 methylation by PRMT1 was involved in the suppression of ER stress. Taken together, our data suggest that PRMT1 is a novel target molecule for protection from Dox-induced cardiotoxicity.

Ferulic Acid, Pterostilbene, and Tyrosol Protect the Heart from ER-Stress-Induced Injury by Activating SIRT1-Dependent Deacetylation of eIF2α. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23126628.

Abstract
Disturbances in Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) homeostasis induce ER stress, which has been involved in the development and progression of various heart diseases, including arrhythmias, cardiac hypertrophy, ischemic heart diseases, dilated cardiomyopathy, and heart failure. A mild-to-moderate ER stress is considered beneficial and adaptative for heart functioning by engaging the pro-survival unfolded protein response (UPR) to restore normal ER function. By contrast, a severe or prolonged ER stress is detrimental by promoting cardiomyocyte apoptosis through hyperactivation of the UPR pathways. Previously, we have demonstrated that the NAD+-dependent deacetylase SIRT1 is cardioprotective in response to severe ER stress by regulating the PERK pathway of the UPR, suggesting that activation of SIRT1 could protect against ER-stress-induced cardiac damage. The purpose of this study was to identify natural molecules able to alleviate ER stress and inhibit cardiomyocyte cell death through SIRT1 activation. Several phenolic compounds, abundant in vegetables, fruits, cereals, wine, and tea, were reported to stimulate the deacetylase activity of SIRT1. Here, we evaluated the cardioprotective effect of ten of these phenolic compounds against severe ER stress using cardiomyoblast cells and mice. Among the molecules tested, we showed that ferulic acid, pterostilbene, and tyrosol significantly protect cardiomyocytes and mice heart from cardiac alterations induced by severe ER stress. By studying the mechanisms involved, we showed that the activation of the PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway of the UPR was reduced by ferulic acid, pterostilbene, and tyrosol under ER stress conditions, leading to a reduction in cardiomyocyte apoptosis. The protection afforded by these phenolic compounds was not directly related to their antioxidant activity but rather to their ability to increase SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of eIF2α. Taken together, our results suggest that ferulic acid, pterostilbene, and tyrosol are promising molecules to activate SIRT1 to protect the heart from the adverse effects of ER stress.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (Dox), an effective therapy in different types of cancer, is known to exhibit cardiotoxic effects. Despite previous studies indicating the benefits of dapagliflozin (DAPA) in patients experiencing heart failure, it remains uncertain whether DAPA exerts a protective effect on Dox-induced cardiac dysfunction. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) participates in various mechanisms of cardioprotection. Herein, we aimed to investigate the effects of DAPA on Dox-induced cardiotoxicity and the role of STAT3. Sprague-Dawley rats were pretreated with oral DAPA for 6 weeks followed by Dox for 4 weeks. Sequential echocardiography was applied to assess cardiac function. For in vitro analysis, cardiomyocytes were treated with 10 μM DAPA and subsequently exposed to 1 μM Dox. The expression of reactive oxygen species- and apoptosis-related proteins was measured. Using STAT3 siRNA, we further examined the effects of STAT3 effect on DAPA-associated protection against Dox-induced apoptosis. In rats treated with Dox, DAPA significantly reduced cardiac fibrosis and improved cardiac function and hemodynamics. Additionally, DAPA effectively inhibited Dox-induced apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cardiomyocytes. Mechanistically, we showed that DAPA decreased cardiac expression of Bax and cleaved caspase 3 but increased Bcl-2 expression. DAPA also significantly rescued Dox-suppressed STAT3 expression. Conversely, knocking down STAT3 in cardiomyocytes reversed the DAPA-related protective effects on Dox-induced cell apoptosis and ROS. Collectively, our findings indicate that DAPA could be useful for preventing Dox-induced cardiotoxicity by restoring STAT3.

Abstract
The improvement of drugs and protocols of chemotherapeutic treatment has led to improved outcomes and survival in patients with cancer. But along with this, at first glance a positive point, there was another interdisciplinary problem, which is the need for early detection and treatment of developing cardiotoxicity when taking chemotherapy drugs. The study of cardioprotective strategies has recently become increasingly relevant, due to the fact that many patients who have successfully undergone treatment for cancer have a high risk of developing or are at high risk of death from cardiovascular diseases. One of the main drugs for the treatment of a number of oncological diseases is an anthracycline – type antibiotic-doxorubicin. This review briefly examines the risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying anthracycline cardiotoxicity. The current possibilities of cardioprotection of anthracycline cardiotoxicity are considered in detail, and some promising targets and drugs for improving cardioprotective strategies are discussed.

Therapeutic Targets for DOX-Induced Cardiomyopathy: Role of Apoptosis vs. Ferroptosis. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23031414.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is the most widely used anthracycline anticancer agent; however, its cardiotoxicity limits its clinical efficacy. Numerous studies have elucidated the mechanisms underlying DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, wherein apoptosis has been reported as the most common final step leading to cardiomyocyte death. However, in the past two years, the involvement of ferroptosis, a novel programmed cell death, has been proposed. The purpose of this review is to summarize the historical background that led to each form of cell death, focusing on DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and the molecular mechanisms that trigger each form of cell death. Furthermore, based on this understanding, possible therapeutic strategies to prevent DOX cardiotoxicity are outlined. DNA damage, oxidative stress, intracellular signaling, transcription factors, epigenetic regulators, autophagy, and metabolic inflammation are important factors in the molecular mechanisms of DOX-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Conversely, the accumulation of lipid peroxides, iron ion accumulation, and decreased expression of glutathione and glutathione peroxidase 4 are important in ferroptosis. In both cascades, the mitochondria are an important site of DOX cardiotoxicity. The last part of this review focuses on the significance of the disruption of mitochondrial homeostasis in DOX cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
The heart is a very dynamic pumping organ working perpetually to maintain a constant blood supply to the whole body to transport oxygen and nutrients. Unfortunately, it is also subjected to various stresses based on physiological or pathological conditions, particularly more vulnerable to damages caused by oxidative stress. In this study, we investigate the molecular mechanism and contribution of IGF-IIRα in endoplasmic reticulum stress induction in the heart under doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Using in vitro H9c2 cells, in vivo transgenic rat cardiac tissues, siRNAs against CHOP, chemical ER chaperone PBA, and western blot experiments, we found that IGF-IIRα overexpression enhanced ER stress markers ATF4, ATF6, IRE1α, and PERK which were further aggravated by DOX treatment. This was accompanied by a significant perturbation in stress-associated MAPKs such as p38 and JNK. Interestingly, PARKIN, a stress responsive cellular protective mediator was significantly downregulated by IGF-IIRα concomitant with decreased expression of ER chaperone GRP78. Furthermore, ER stress-associated pro-apoptotic factor CHOP was increased considerably in a dose-dependent manner followed by elevated c-caspase-12 and c-caspase-3 activities. Conversely, treatment of H9c2 cells with chemical ER chaperone PBA or siRNA against CHOP abolished the IGF-IIRα-induced ER stress responses. Altogether, these findings suggested that IGF-IIRα contributes to ER stress induction and inhibits cellular stress coping proteins while increasing pro-apoptotic factors feeding into a cardio myocyte damage program that eventually paves the way to heart failure.

A Systematic Review of the Potential Chemoprotective Effects of Resveratrol on Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity: Focus on the Antioxidant, Antiapoptotic, and Anti-Inflammatory Activities. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:2951697.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although doxorubicin chemotherapeutic drug is commonly used to treat various solid and hematological tumors, its clinical use is restricted because of its adverse effects on the normal cells/tissues, especially cardiotoxicity. The use of resveratrol may mitigate the doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxic effects. For this aim, we systematically reviewed the potential chemoprotective effects of resveratrol against the doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. METHODS In the current study, a systematic search was performed based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline for the identification of all relevant studies on "the role of resveratrol on doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity" in the electronic databases of Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus up to March 2021 using search terms in their titles and abstracts. Two hundred and eighteen articles were screened in accordance with a predefined set of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Finally, 33 eligible articles were included in this systematic review. RESULTS The in vitro and in vivo findings demonstrated a decreased cell survival, increased mortality, decreased heart weight, and increased ascites in the doxorubicin-treated groups compared to the control groups. The combined treatment of resveratrol and doxorubicin showed an opposite pattern than the doxorubicin-treated groups alone. Furthermore, this chemotherapeutic agent induced the biochemical and histopathological changes on the cardiac cells/tissue; however, the results (for most of the cases) revealed that these alterations induced by doxorubicin were reversed near to normal levels (control groups) by resveratrol coadministration. CONCLUSION The results of this systematic review stated that coadministration of resveratrol alleviates the doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Resveratrol exerts these chemoprotective effects through several main mechanisms of antioxidant, antiapoptosis, and anti-inflammatory.

Abstract
As a potent chemotherapeutic agent, doxorubicin (DOX) is widely used for the treatment of a variety of cancers However, its clinical utility is limited by dose-dependent cardiotoxicity, and pathogenesis has traditionally been attributed to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Accordingly, the prevention of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity is an indispensable goal to optimize therapeutic regimens and reduce morbidity. Acetylation is an emerging and important epigenetic modification regulated by histone deacetylases (HDACs) and histone acetyltransferases (HATs). Despite extensive studies of the molecular basis and biological functions of acetylation, the application of acetylation as a therapeutic target for cardiotoxicity is in the initial stage, and further studies are required to clarify the complex acetylation network and improve the clinical management of cardiotoxicity. In this review, we summarize the pivotal functions of HDACs and HATs in DOX-induced oxidative stress, the underlying mechanisms, the contributions of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) and exercise-mediated deacetylases to cardiotoxicity. Furthermore, we describe research progress related to several important SIRT activators and HDAC inhibitors with potential clinical value for chemotherapy and cardiotoxicity. Collectively, a comprehensive understanding of specific roles and recent developments of acetylation in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity will provide a basis for improved treatment outcomes in cancer and cardiovascular diseases.

Unfolded protein response during cardiovascular disorders: a tilt towards pro-survival and cellular homeostasis. Mol Cell Biochem 2021; 476:4061-4080.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle that orchestrates the production and proper assembly of an extensive types of secretory and membrane proteins. Endoplasmic reticulum stress is conventionally related to prolonged disruption in the protein folding machinery resulting in the accumulation of unfolded proteins in the ER. This disruption is often manifested due to oxidative stress, Ca2+ leakage, iron imbalance, disease conditions which in turn hampers the cellular homeostasis and induces cellular apoptosis. A mild ER stress is often reverted back to normal. However, cells retaliate to acute ER stress by activating the unfolded protein response (UPR) which comprises three signaling pathways, Activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), inositol requiring enzyme 1 alpha (IRE1α), and protein kinase RNA-activated-like ER kinase (PERK). The UPR response participates in both protective and pro-apoptotic responses and not much is known about the mechanistic aspects of the switch from pro-survival to pro-apoptosis. When ER stress outpaces UPR response then cell apoptosis prevails which often leads to the development of various diseases including cardiomyopathies. Therefore, it is important to identify molecules that modulate the UPR that may serve as promising tools towards effective treatment of cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we elucidated the latest advances in construing the contribution imparted by the three arms of UPR to combat the adverse environment in the ER to restore cellular homeostasis during cardiomyopathies. We also summarized the various therapeutic agents that plays crucial role in tilting the UPR response towards pro-survival.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anthracycline chemotherapy drug used in the treatment of various types of cancer. However, short-term and long-term cardiotoxicity limits the clinical application of DOX. Currently, dexrazoxane is the only approved treatment by the United States Food and Drug Administration to prevent DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. However, a recent study found that pre-treatment with dexrazoxane could not fully improve myocardial toxicity of DOX. Therefore, further targeted cardioprotective prophylaxis and treatment strategies are an urgent requirement for cancer patients receiving DOX treatment to reduce the occurrence of cardiotoxicity. Accumulating evidence manifested that Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) could play a crucially protective role in heart diseases. Recently, numerous studies have concentrated on the role of SIRT1 in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, which might be related to the activity and deacetylation of SIRT1 downstream targets. Therefore, the aim of this review was to summarize the recent advances related to the protective effects, mechanisms, and deficiencies in clinical application of SIRT1 in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Also, the pharmaceutical preparations that activate SIRT1 and affect DOX-induced cardiotoxicity have been listed in this review.

Abstract
Cardiovascular complications have been frequently reported in cancer patients and survivors, mainly because of various cardiotoxic cancer treatments. Despite the known cardiovascular toxic effects of these treatments, they are still clinically used because of their effectiveness as anti-cancer agents. In this review, we discuss the growing body of evidence suggesting that inhibition of the cytochrome P450 1B1 enzyme (CYP1B1) can be a promising therapeutic strategy that has the potential to prevent cancer treatment-induced cardiovascular complications without reducing their anti-cancer effects. CYP1B1 is an extrahepatic enzyme that is expressed in cardiovascular tissues and overexpressed in different types of cancers. A growing body of evidence is demonstrating a detrimental role of CYP1B1 in both cardiovascular diseases and cancer, via perturbed metabolism of endogenous compounds, production of carcinogenic metabolites, DNA adduct formation, and generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Several chemotherapeutic agents have been shown to induce CYP1B1 in cardiovascular and cancer cells, possibly via activating the Aryl hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR), ROS generation, and inflammatory cytokines. Induction of CYP1B1 is detrimental in many ways. First, it can induce or exacerbate cancer treatment-induced cardiovascular complications. Second, it may lead to significant chemo/radio-resistance, undermining both the safety and effectiveness of cancer treatments. Therefore, numerous preclinical studies demonstrate that inhibition of CYP1B1 protects against chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity and prevents chemo- and radio-resistance. Most of these studies have utilized phytochemicals to inhibit CYP1B1. Since phytochemicals have multiple targets, future studies are needed to discern the specific contribution of CYP1B1 to the cardioprotective and chemo/radio-sensitizing effects of these phytochemicals.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), such as ischaemic heart disease, cardiomyopathy, atherosclerosis, hypertension, stroke and heart failure, are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although specific CVDs and the associated cardiometabolic abnormalities have distinct pathophysiological and clinical manifestations, they often share common traits, including disruption of proteostasis resulting in accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). ER proteostasis is governed by the unfolded protein response (UPR), a signalling pathway that adjusts the protein-folding capacity of the cell to sustain the cell's secretory function. When the adaptive UPR fails to preserve ER homeostasis, a maladaptive or terminal UPR is engaged, leading to the disruption of ER integrity and to apoptosis. ER stress functions as a double-edged sword, with long-term ER stress resulting in cellular defects causing disturbed cardiovascular function. In this Review, we discuss the distinct roles of the UPR and ER stress response as both causes and consequences of CVD. We also summarize the latest advances in our understanding of the importance of the UPR and ER stress in the pathogenesis of CVD and discuss potential therapeutic strategies aimed at restoring ER proteostasis in CVDs.

[PMID: 33562294 PMCID: PMC7914665 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22041668] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2021] [Revised: 02/01/2021] [Accepted: 02/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of death in the United States, with a 5-year mortality rate of 50% despite modern pharmacological therapies. Plant-based diets are comprised of a diverse polyphenol profile, which lends to their association with reduced cardiovascular disease risk. Whether a polyphenol-rich diet can slow the progression of or reverse HF in humans is not known. To date, in vitro and in vivo studies have reported on the protective role of polyphenols in HF. In this review, we will discuss the major mechanisms by which polyphenols mitigate HF in vitro and in vivo, including (1) reduced cardiac inflammation and oxidative stress, (2) reduced mitochondrial dysfunction, (3) improved Ca2+ homeostasis, (4) increased survival signaling, and (5) increased sirtuin 1 activity.

Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular diseases are responsible for 31% of global deaths. A reduction in mortality can be achieved by promoting a healthy lifestyle, developing prevention strategies, and developing new therapies. Polyphenols are present in food and drinks such as tea, cocoa, fruits, berries, and vegetables. These compounds have strong antioxidative properties, which might have a cardioprotective effect. The aim of this paper is to examine the potential of polyphenols in cardioprotective use based on in vitro human and rat cardiomyocytes as well as fibroblast research. Based on the papers discussed in this review, polyphenols have the potential for cardioprotective use due to their multilevel points of action which include, among others, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antithrombotic, and vasodilatory. Polyphenols may have potential use in new and effective preventions or therapies for cardiovascular diseases, yet more clinical studies are needed.

Abstract
Cancer patients with diabetes have an increasing risk of Dox-induced cardiotoxicity. Despite previous studies reporting benefits of dapagliflozin on the cardiovascular system, it remains unknown whether dapagliflozin has a cardioprotective effect in cancer patients with diabetes. We aimed to investigate the potential of dapagliflozin for preventing doxorubicin (Dox)-induced cardiotoxicity. Using Taiwan National Health Insurance Database, the incidence of heart failure of cancer patients with or without diabetes was investigated. Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats were pretreated with oral dapagliflozin for 6 weeks followed by Dox for 4 weeks via intraperitoneal injection. Sequential echocardiography was applied to assess cardiac function. For in vitro analysis, cardiomyocytes cultured in high glucose were treated with dapagliflozin at 10 μM and subsequently exposed to Dox at 1 μM. Apoptosis and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-related protein expression were measured. Among the studied patients, those with diabetes had a higher risk of major adverse cardiovascular events including the development of heart failure. In diabetic rats, dapagliflozin reduced cardiac fibrosis and significantly improved cardiac function. Dapagliflozin effectively inhibited Dox-induced apoptosis and reactive oxygen species in cardiomyocytes under high glucose. Mechanistically, we showed that dapagliflozin decreased the cardiac expression of Bax and cleaved caspase 3 but increased Bcl-2. Dapagliflozin also significantly reduced ER stress-associated proteins including GRP78, PERK, eIF-2α, ATF-4, and CHOP. Our study revealed for the first time that dapagliflozin mitigated Dox-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis in diabetes. These results indicate that dapagliflozin could be useful for preventing cardiotoxicity in diabetic cancer patients receiving Dox treatment.

Mitochondrial Sirtuins and Doxorubicin-induced Cardiotoxicity. Cardiovasc Toxicol 2021; 21:179-191.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is the most effective and extensively used treatment for many tumors. However, its clinical use is hampered by its cardiotoxicity. DOX-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, which causes reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, cardiomyocyte death, bioenergetic failure, and decreased cardiac function, is a very important mechanism of cardiotoxicity. These cellular processes are all linked by mitochondrial sirtuins (SIRT3-SIRT4). Mitochondrial sirtuins preserve mitochondrial function by increasing mitochondrial metabolism, inhibiting ROS generation by activating the antioxidant enzyme manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), decreasing apoptosis by activating the forkhead homeobox type O (FOXO) and P53 pathways, and increasing autophagy through AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/mTOR signaling. Thus, sirtuins function at the control point of many mechanisms involved in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. In this review, we focus on the role of mitochondrial sirtuins in mitochondrial biology and DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. A further aim is to highlight other mitochondrial processes, such as autophagy (mitophagy) and mitochondrial quality control (MQC), for which the effect of mitochondrial sirtuins on cardiotoxicity is unknown.

Abstract
Resveratrol displays cardioprotective activity; however, its mechanism of action remains unclear. In the current study, resveratrol-induced myocardial protection from endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) was investigated, focusing on the roles of Zn2+ and the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). We found, using the MTT/LDH kit, that 2-DG-induced ERS significantly decreased H9c2 cell viability. Resveratrol markedly inhibited the expression of endoplasmic reticulum chaperone GRP 78/94 and ERS-related apoptosis proteins CHOP, Caspase12, and JNK induced by 2-DG. The zinc ion chelator TPEN, and ERK/GSK-3β inhibitors PD98059 and SB216763 and their siRNAs blocked resveratrol function. The AKT inhibitor LY294002 and siRNA did not alter the action of resveratrol. In addition, resveratrol significantly increased the phosphorylation of ERK and GSK-3β. Resveratrol prevented 2-DG-induced mPTP opening and increased intracellular Zn2+ concentration indicated by TMRE and Newport Green DCF fluorescence intensity, which were further abrogated by ERK/GSK-3β inhibitors and siRNAs. Our data suggested that resveratrol protected cardiac cells from ERS by mobilizing intracellular Zn2+ and preventing mPTP opening through the ERK/GSK-3β but not PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Abstract
This study investigated the anticancer effect of the anti-parasitic drug artemisinin in combination with two redox modulators: vitamin C and pro-vitamin K3 (C/K3) The experiments were conducted on leukaemia cells Jurkat. Cells were treated with either artemisinin or C/K3 alone and with all three compounds. Cell proliferation and viability were analysed using trypan blue stating and automated cell counting. The results showed that artemisinin (>10 mM) suppressed cell proliferation activity, but did not induce cell death up to 500 mM. The drug demonstrated a clear cytostatic effect at concentrations 250- 500 mM – Jurkat cells did not proliferate, but were alive. The combination C/K3 (200:2, 300:3 mM/mM) applied alone did not affect cell proliferation and viability. Vitamins C/K3 in concentration ratio 500:5 (μM/mM) decreased cell proliferation activity by ~10%. The triple combination artemisinin/C/K3 manifested synergistic anti-proliferative effects at all concentration ratios analysed. This synergistic effect increased with increasing C/K3 concentration. Based on literature data, it was assumed that the anti-proliferative effect of the triple combination was mediated by changes in the redox-homeostasis of cancer cells. The C/K3 redox system likely acted on cancer mitochondria and increased superoxide production and activation of pro-apoptotic signals, specific for cancer cells. On the other hand, artemisinin could generate hydroxyl radicals as a result of activation of Fenton reactions, depleting intracellular reducing equivalents. Both redox mechanisms lead to activation of signal pathways for induction of cancer cell death.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a chemotherapeutic agent with marked, dose-dependent cardiotoxicity that leads to tachycardia, atrial and ventricular arrhythmia, and irreversible heart failure. Induction of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) which plays a major role in protein folding and calcium homeostasis was reported as a key contributor to cardiac complications of DOX. This article reviews several chemical compounds that have been shown to regulate DOX-induced inflammation, apoptosis, and autophagy via inhibition of ER stress signaling pathways, such as the IRE1α/ASK1/JNK, IRE1α/JNK/Beclin-1, and CHOP pathways.

Abstract
AIMS Although chemotherapeutic agents have highly beneficial effects against cancer, they disturb the body's normal homeostasis. One of the critical side effects of chemotherapeutic agents is their deleterious effect on the cardiac system, which causes limitations of their clinical usage. Taurine constitutes more than 50% of the amino acids in the heart. The use of taurine might prevent chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity. This systematic study aims to evaluate the protective role of taurine against cardiotoxicity induced by chemotherapy. METHODS A systematic search was performed in databases up to November 2020, and the review is designed on PRISMA guidelines. The search keywords were selected based on our study target and were searched in the title and abstract. After the consecutive screening, out of a whole of 94 articles, 8 articles were included according to our inclusion and exclusion criteria. KEY FINDINGS According to the study results, chemotherapy decreases body and heart weight and increases mortality. Also, it induces some biochemical and histological changes compared to the control group. By co-administration of taurine with chemotherapy, alterations returned near to the average level. These protective effects of taurine are mediated through anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties. SIGNIFICANCE Based on evaluated non-clinical studies, taurine ameliorates chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity, but its possible interaction with the efficacy of anti-cancer medicines that mostly act through induction of oxidants remains to be elucidated in the future. This needs conducting well-designed studies to assess the effectiveness and safety of this combination simultaneously.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anticancer drug widely used in oncology, especially for breast cancer. The main limitation of DOX treatment is its cardiotoxicity due to the cumulative dose. Clinically, DOX-induced cardiomyopathy develops as a progressive heart failure caused by a progressive cardiomyocyte's death. For long, the oxidative stress induced by DOX was considered as the main toxic mechanism responsible for heart damage, but it is now controverted, and other processes are investigated to develop cardioprotective strategies. Previously, we studied DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and dexrazoxane (DEX), the only cardioprotective compound authorized by the FDA, by 1H-NMR metabonomics in H9C2 cells. We observed an increased succinate secretion in the extracellular fluid of DEX-exposed cardiomyocytes, a finding that led us to the hypothesis of a possible protective role of this agonist of the GPR91 receptor. The objective of the present work was to study the effect of succinate (SUC) and cis-epoxysuccinate (cis-ES), two agonists of the GPR91 receptor, on DOX-induced cardiotoxicity to H9C2 cells. To this purpose, several toxicity parameters, including cell viability, oxidative stress and apoptosis, as well as the GPR91 expression, were measured to assess the effects of DEX, SUC and cis-ES either alone or in combination with DOX in H9C2 cells. A 1H-NMR-based metabonomic study was carried out on cellular fluids collected after 24 h to highlight the metabolic changes induced by those protective compounds. Moreover, the effects of each agonist given either alone or in combination with DOX were evaluated on MCF-7 breast cancer cells. GPR91 expression was confirmed in H9C2 cells, while no expression was found in MCF-7 cells. Under such experimental conditions, both SUC and cis-ES decreased partially the cellular mortality, the oxidative stress and the apoptosis induced by DOX. The SUC protective effect was similar to the DEX effect, but the protective effect of cis-ES was higher on oxidative stress and apoptosis. In addition, the metabonomics findings pointed out several metabolic pathways involved in the cardioprotective effects of both GPR91 agonists: the stimulation of aerobic metabolism with glucose as the main fuel, redox balance and phospholipids synthesis. Finally, none of the GPR91 agonists jeopardized the pharmacological effects of DOX on MCF-7 breast cancer cells.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is an evolutionarily conserved adaptive response that contributes to deal with the misfolded or unfolded protein in the lumen of the ER and restore the ER homeostasis. However, excessive and prolonged ER stress can trigger the cell-death signaling pathway which causes cell death, usually in the form of apoptosis. It is generally accepted that inappropriate cellular apoptosis and a series of the subsequent inflammatory response and oxidative stress can cause disturbance of normal physiological functions and organ damage. A lot of evidence shows that the excessive activation of the ER stress contributes to the pathogenesis of many kinds of diseases and inhibiting the inappropriate stress is of great significance for maintaining the normal physiological function. In recent years, Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) has become a research hotspot on ER stress. As a master regulator of ER stress, increasing evidence suggests that SIRT1 plays a positive role in a variety of ER stress-induced organ damage via multiple mechanisms, including inhibiting cellular apoptosis and promoting autophagy. Furthermore, a lot of factors have shown effective regulation of SIRT1, which indicates the feasibility of treating SIRT1 as a target for the treatment of ER stress-related diseases. We summarize and reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying the protective effect of SIRT1 in multiple ER stress-mediated organ damage in this review. We also summed up the possible adjustment mechanism of SIRT1, which provides a theoretical basis for the treatment of ER stress-related diseases.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is considered one of the possible mechanisms behind chemobrain or the cognitive dysfunction persistent after chemotherapy treatment. Breast cancer patients have reported chemobrain symptoms since the 1990s. In this present bibliometric review, we employed the VOSviewer tool to describe the existing landscape on literature concerning oxidative stress, breast cancer chemotherapies, and chemobrain. As of 2019, 8799 papers were listed in the Web of Science database, with more than 900 papers published each year. As expected, terms relating to oxidative stress, mitochondria, breast cancer, and antioxidants have occurred very often in the literature throughout the years. In recent years, there has been an increase in the occurrence of terms related to nanomedicine. Only within the last decade do the keywords 'brain', 'blood-brain barrier', and 'central nervous system' appear, reflecting an increased interest in chemobrain. China has become the most prolific producer of oxidative stress and chemotherapy related papers in the last decade followed by the USA and India. In conclusion, the subject of oxidative stress as a mechanism behind chemotherapies' toxicities is an active area of research.

Dallons M, Schepkens C, Dupuis A, Tagliatti V, Colet JM. New Insights About Doxorubicin-Induced Toxicity to Cardiomyoblast-Derived H9C2 Cells and Dexrazoxane Cytoprotective Effect: Contribution of In Vitro 1H-NMR Metabonomics. Front Pharmacol 2020; 11:79. [PMID: 32153402 PMCID: PMC7044126 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2020.00079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2019] [Accepted: 01/27/2020] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anticancer drug widely used in oncology. The main limitation to DOX treatments though is due to the cumulative dose that may lead to cardiotoxicity. Clinically, DOX-induced cardiomyopathy develops as a progressive heart failure consecutive to a progressive loss in cardiomyocytes due to cell necrosis and apoptosis induced by DOX. For many years, the cardiac oxidative stress caused by DOX was considered as its main toxic mechanism. Therefore, several clinical trials were carried out to assess the efficacy of various antioxidants as a cardioprotective strategy. Only dexrazoxane (DEX), did significantly reduce DOX cardiotoxicity. However, since other antioxidants used later on to counteract DOX cardiotoxicity were not as successful as DEX, DOX-induced oxidative stress and DEX antioxidant activity are not considered as the main feature anymore and this led the scientific world to suspect other involved mechanisms which are still unknown. The objective of the present work was to study from a metabolic point of view the side effects of DOX and the protective properties of DEX. In vitro1H-NMR metabonomics was applied to the rat cardiomyoblastic H9C2 cell line. This strategy was used with the hope of unveiling possible new targets to cope with DOX cardiotoxicity. Another underlying goal was the validation of H9C2 in vitro model for metabolic investigations of DOX and DEX effects. For this purpose, several parameters, including oxidative stress, cell mortality, and apoptosis, were measured to assess the effects of DOX and DEX alone or in combination. The metabonomic study was carried out on cellular fluids collected after either 4 or 24 hours of DOX-exposure. Under such experimental conditions, both the major adverse effects reported in patients exposed to DOX and the protective effect of DEX were demonstrated in vitro, suggesting that the H9C2 in vitro model is relevant to investigate both DOX cardiotoxicity and putative cardioprotective strategies. In addition, the metabonomics findings highlighted several metabolic pathways involved in DOX cardiotoxicity and DEX cardioprotective effects as potential metabolic targets for cardioprotection: energy metabolism, redox balance, as well as phospholipids and proteins metabolism.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common type of malignancy to exist in men within developed countries. Androgen deprivation therapy is performed for metastatic and advanced PC. However, the majority of cases of prostate cancer become refractory during therapy, leading to castration-resistant PC (CRPC). Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are key factors in regulating gene transcription and have been associated with cancer development. In the present study the small molecule inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA), which targets HDACs, was demonstrated to inhibit the proliferation of CRPC PC3 cells by disrupting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-STAT3 pathway. The expression of EGFR and STAT3 was downregulated following TSA treatment, and cell cycle arrest was induced by downregulating the expression of cyclin D1 and CDK6, and via retinoblastoma protein phosphorylation. Furthermore, the transcription of cyclin D1 and CDK6 was suppressed by TSA. Apoptosis of PC3 cells treated with TSA was also investigated, and it was revealed that TSA induced apoptosis by upregulating BAX and downregulating BCL-2. The combination of TSA with doxorubicin exerted a synergistic inhibitory effect on PC3 cell proliferation through the induction of apoptosis. The results of the present study revealed a promising epigenetic-based therapeutic strategy that could be implemented in cases of CRPC.

Abstract
Cardio-oncology is a clinical/scientific discipline which aims to prevent and/or treat cardiovascular diseases in cancer patients. Although a large number of cancer treatments are known to cause cardiovascular toxicity, they are still widely used because they are highly effective. Unfortunately, therapeutic interventions to prevent and/or treat cancer treatment-induced cardiovascular toxicity have not been established yet. A major challenge for such interventions is to protect the cardiovascular system without compromising the therapeutic benefit of anticancer medications. Intriguingly, the polyphenolic natural compound resveratrol and its analogs have been shown in preclinical studies to protect against cancer treatment-induced cardiovascular toxicity. They have also been shown to possess significant anticancer properties on their own, and to enhance the anticancer effect of other cancer treatments. Thus, they hold significant promise to protect the cardiovascular system and fight the cancer at the same time. In this review, we will discuss the current knowledge regarding the cardio-protective and the anticancer properties of resveratrol and its analogs. Thereafter, we will discuss the challenges that face the clinical application of these agents. To conclude, we will highlight important gaps of knowledge and future research directions to accelerate the translation of these exciting preclinical findings to cancer patient care.

Abstract
Radiation-induced fibrosis (RIF) develops months to years after initial radiation exposure. RIF occurs when normal fibroblasts differentiate into myofibroblasts and lay down aberrant amounts of extracellular matrix proteins. One of the main drivers for developing RIF is reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated immediately after radiation exposure. Generation of ROS is known to induce epigenetic changes and cause differentiation of fibroblasts to myofibroblasts. Several antioxidant compounds have been shown to prevent radiation-induced epigenetic changes and the development of RIF. Therefore, reviewing the ROS-linked epigenetic changes in irradiated fibroblast cells is essential to understand the development and prevention of RIF.

Abstract
Background Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) seriously reduces quality of life and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The causes and neuropathogenesis of POCD remain largely unknown. Resveratrol, a sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) activator, is a polyphenol compound found in red wine that has protective functions in neuropathology paradigms. Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) is a primary cellular response that activates the unfolded protein response (UPR). ERS and UPR mediate molecular and biochemical mechanisms related to neurodegeneration; however, the roles of ERS and Sirt1 in POCD remain unclear. The properties of resveratrol might be useful in the setting of POCD. Methods In the present study, we investigated learning and memory function and ERS pathways in aged mice after surgery under local anesthesia, and we evaluated the effects of resveratrol pretreatment. Results We found that resveratrol attenuated postoperative learning and memory impairment in aged mice postoperatively but did not alter locomotor activity. Resveratrol significantly decreased postoperative expression of ERS pathway UPR-related proteins and inflammatory mediators including nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in the hippocampus. This was accompanied by higher Sirt1 protein expression levels. Pretreatment with resveratrol did not affect the number of hippocampal neurons in aged mice after surgery. Conclusion Overall, resveratrol pretreatment attenuated short-term learning and memory impairment and the ERS pathway UPR in aged mice after surgery under local anesthesia.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the main organelle for the synthesis, folding, and processing of secretory and transmembrane proteins. Pathological stimuli including hypoxia, ischaemia, inflammation and oxidative stress interrupt the homeostatic function of ER, leading to accumulation of unfolded proteins, a condition referred to as ER stress. ER stress triggers a complex signalling network referred as the unfolded protein response (UPR). Extensive studies have demonstrated that ER stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of various cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure, ischemic heart disease and atherosclerosis. The importance of natural products in modern medicine are well recognized and continues to be of interests as a source of novel lead compounds. Natural products targeting components of UPR and reducing ER stress offers an innovative strategic approach to treat cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we discussed several therapeutic interventions using natural products with potential cardiovascular protective properties targeting ER stress signalling pathways.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a widely used anticancer drug that could be even more effective if its clinical dosage was not limited because of delayed cardiotoxicity. Beating stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes are a preferred in vitro model to further uncover the mechanisms of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Our objective was to use cultured induced-pluripotent stem cell(iPSC)-derived mouse cardiomyocytes (Cor.At) to investigate the effects of DOX on cell and mitochondrial metabolism, as well as on stress responses. Non-proliferating and beating Cor.At cells were treated with 0.5 or 1 μM DOX for 24 h, and morphological, functional and biochemical changes associated with mitochondrial bioenergetics, DNA-damage response and apoptosis were measured. Both DOX concentrations decreased ATP levels and SOD2 protein levels and induced p53-dependent caspase activation. However, differential effects were observed for the two DOX concentrations. The highest concentration induced a high degree of apoptosis, with increased nuclear apoptotic morphology, PARP-1 cleavage and decrease of some OXPHOS protein subunits. At the lowest concentration, DOX increased the expression of p53 target transcripts associated with mitochondria-dependent apoptosis and decreased transcripts related with DNA-damage response and glycolysis. Interestingly, cells treated with 0.5 μM DOX presented an increase in PDK4 transcript levels, accompanied by an increase in phospho-PDH and decreased PDH activity. This was accompanied by an apparent decrease in basal and maximal oxygen consumption rates (OCR) and in basal extracellular acidification rate (ECAR). Cells pre-treated with the PDK inhibitor dichloroacetate (DCA), with the aim of restoring PDH activity, partially recovered OCR and ECAR. The results suggest that the higher DOX concentration mainly induces p53-dependent apoptosis, whereas for the lower DOX concentration the cardiotoxic effects involve bioenergetic failure, unveiling PDH as a possible therapeutic target to decrease DOX cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
Physical exercise is considered to be one of the beneficial factors of a proper lifestyle and is nowadays seen as an indispensable element for good health, able to lower the risk of disorders of the cardiovascular, endocrine and osteomuscular apparatus, immune system diseases and the onset of potential neoplasms. A moderate and programmed physical exercise has often been reported to be therapeutic both in the adulthood and in aging, since capable to promote fitness. Regular exercise alleviates the negative effects caused by free radicals and offers many health benefits, including reduced risk of all-cause mortality, sarcopenia in the skeletal muscle, chronic disease, and premature death in elderly people. However, physical performance is also known to induce oxidative stress, inflammation, and muscle fatigue. Many efforts have been carried out to identify micronutrients and natural compounds, also known as nutraceuticals, able to prevent or attenuate the exercise-induced oxidative stress and inflammation. The aim of this review is to discuss the benefits deriving from a constant physical activity and by the intake of antioxidant compounds to protect the body from oxidative stress. The attention will be focused mainly on three natural antioxidants, which are quercetin, resveratrol and curcumin. Their properties and activity will be described, as well as their benefits on physical activity and on aging, which is expected to increase through the years and can get favorable benefits from a constant exercise activity.

Abstract
Natural products or nutraceuticals have been shown to elicit anti-aging, anti-cancer and other health-enhancing effects. A key target of the effects of natural products may be the regulation of microRNA (miR) expression which results in cell death or prevents aging, diabetes, cardiovascular and other diseases. This review will focus on a few natural products, especially on resveratrol (RES), curcumin (CUR) and berberine (BBR). RES is obtained from the skins of grapes and other fruits and berries. RES may extend human lifespan by activating the sirtuins and SIRT1 molecules. CUR is isolated from the root of turmeric (Curcuma longa). CUR is currently used in the treatment of many disorders, especially in those involving an inflammatory process. CUR and modified derivatives have been shown to have potent anti-cancer effects, especially on cancer stem cells (CSC). BBR is also isolated from various plants (e.g., Coptis chinensis) and has been used for centuries in traditional medicine to treat diseases such as adult- onset diabetes. Understanding the benefits of these and other nutraceuticals may result in approaches to improve human health.
