摘要: Adriamycin (doxorubicin) is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic agents against a variety cancers, but its usefulness seriously curtailed by risk developing heart failure. Available laboratory evidence suggests that an increase in oxidative stress, brought about increased free radical production and decreased myocardial endogenous antioxidants, plays important role pathogenesis Adriamycin-induced apoptosis hyperlipidemia may also be involved process. Probucol, lipid-lowering drug antioxidant, completely prevents occurrence failure reducing stress as well modulation apoptis high lipid concentrations. Thus, combined therapy with adriamycin probucol has potential for optimizing treatment cancer patients.
