Overview

Supports oxymatrine cardioprotection in rat doxorubicin models; leaves open translation to clinical use.

Structured PICO

Does oxymatrine prevent doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in rat hearts and H9c2 cells?

P
Population
Rat hearts and H9c2 cells with doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity
I
Intervention
Oxymatrine
C
Comparator
Doxorubicin alone
O
Outcome
Cardiotoxicity (oxidative stress, apoptosis, and histological damage)surrogate

Oxymatrine shows potential as a cardioprotective agent against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity by inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis in preclinical models.

Cite This Study

Zhang et al. (2017) studied Doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Oxymatrine was evaluated on Oxidative stress, pathological damage, and apoptosis. Oxymatrine attenuated doxorubicin-induced oxidative stress, pathological damage, and apoptosis in rat hearts and H9c2 cells.
