Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Aims Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anthracycline drug with a wide spectrum of clinical antineoplastic activity, but increased apoptosis has been implicated in its cardiotoxicity. Resveratrol (RES) was shown to harbor major health benefits in diseases associated with oxidative stress. In this study we hope to determine the effect of RES on DOX-induced myocardial apoptosis in mice. Methods and results Male Balb/c mice were randomized to 1 of 4 treatments: saline, RES, DOX, and RES plus DOX (10 mice in each group). DOX treatment markedly depressed the cardiac function, decreased the heart weight, body weight and the ratio of heart weight/body weight, but inversely increased the level of protein carbonyl, malondialdehyde, and serum lactate dehydrogenase, induced mitochondrial cytochrome c release and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. However, these effects of DOX were ameliorated by its combinative treatment with RES. Further studies with coimmunoprecipitation assay revealed the interaction between p53 and Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1). It was found by Western blot and electrophoretic mobility shift assay that DOX treatment increased p53 protein acetylation and cytochrome c release from mitochondria, activated p53 binding at the Bax promoter, and up-regulated Bax expression, but supplement with RES could weaken all these effects. Conclusions The protective effect of RES against DOX-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis is associated with the up-regulation in SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of p53.
