Research Article: Moringa oleifera Leaves Extract Ameliorates Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity via Its Mitochondrial Biogenesis Modulatory Activity in Rats
Abstract:
Doxorubicin, an anthracycline anticancer drug, is highly efficacious and successful in treating a broad range of solid tumors and hematological malignancies. Even though doxorubicin is a very efficient anticancer drug, most patients experience cardiotoxicity as a side effect., Cardiotoxicity due to doxorubicin can be characterized by the elevation of several cardiac enzyme markers, electrocardiogram abnormalities, and left ventricular systolic dysfunction that might progress to cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure., The previous study had shown that the incidence of patients with congestive heart failure could increase dose-dependently with the cumulative dose of doxorubicin.,
