ABSTRACT
Subclinical cardiotoxicity at low total cumulative doxorubicin (DOX) doses can manifest into cardiomyopathy in long-term cancer survivors. However, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. In male B6C3F1 mice, assessment of cardiac function by echocardiography was performed at 1, 4, 10, 17, and 24 weeks after exposure to 6, 9, 12, and 24 mg/kg total cumulative DOX doses or saline (SAL) to monitor development of delayed-onset cardiotoxicity. The 6- or 9-mg/kg total cumulative doses resulted in a significant time-dependent decline in systolic function (left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and fractional shortening (FS)) during the 24-week recovery although there was not a significant alteration in % LVEF or % FS at any specific time point during the recovery. A significant decline in systolic function was elicited by the cardiotoxic cumulative DOX dose (24 mg/kg) during the 4- to 24-week period after treatment compared to SAL-treated counterparts. At 24 weeks after DOX treatment, a significant dose-related decrease in the expression of genes and proteins involved in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) calcium homeostasis (Ryr2 and Serca2) was associated with a dose-related increase in the transcript level of Casp12 (SR-specific apoptosis) in hearts. These mice also showed enhanced apoptotic activity in hearts indicated by a significant dose-related elevation in the number of apoptotic cardiomyocytes compared to SAL-treated counterparts. These findings collectively suggest that a steady decline in SR calcium handling and apoptosis might be involved in the development of subclinical cardiotoxicity that can evolve into irreversible cardiomyopathy later in life.
