ABSTRACT
Purpose A novel doxorubicin (DOX) analog, 13-deoxy, 5-iminodoxorubicin (DIDOX), was synthesized to prevent quinone redox cycling and alcohol metabolite formation, two prevailing hypotheses of anthracycline cardiotoxicity. The chronic cardiotoxicity of DOX and DIDOX was compared. Since a recent hypothesis posits that DOX-induced chronic cardiotoxicity may be mediated by inhibition of the topoisomerase IIß/DNA reaction, we also compared potency of DOX and DIDOX to inhibit topoisomerase IIß decatenation of kinetoplast DNA (kDNA) (a series or interlocking small rings of DNA). Methods We compared DIDOX with DOX to alter cardiac function in a chronic rabbit model. We also compared potency to inhibit decatenation of kDNA by purified topoisomerase IIß in vitro. Results DOX and DIDOX caused similar decreases in white and red blood cell counts indicating similar positions on the dose-response curve for cytotoxic efficacy. However, DOX but not DIDOX elicited a decrease in left ventricular fractional shortening and contractility of isolated left atrial preparations obtained at sacrifice. Histological scoring of apex and left ventricular free wall samples showed that DOX-treated rabbits had significantly more cardiac injury than samples from DIDOX or saline-treated rabbits. DOX inhibited decatenation of DNA by topoisomerase IIß with an EC50 of 40.1 µM while DIDOX did not have any apparent effect on topoisomerase IIß at the concentrations used in the study (0.1-100 µM). Conclusions Unlike DOX, DIDOX did not cause chronic cardiotoxicity and did not appear to interact with topoisomerase IIß in decatenation assays consistent with the hypothesis that inhibition of the topoisomerase IIß/DNA reaction may be a contributor of the mechanism of chronic DOX cardiotoxicity.
