Doxorubicin (Dox) is an anthracycline used to effectively treat several forms of cancer.Unfortunately,the use of Dox is limited due to its association with cardiovascular complications which are manifested as acute and chronic cardiotoxicity.The pathophysiological mechanism of Dox induced cardiotoxicity appears to involve increased expression of BAX,Bcl-2,Caspases-3 and Superoxide system in cardiomyocytes,followed by cellular apoptosis.
