Özet

AMAÇ: Doksorubisin (DOX), kemoterapide yaygın olarak kullanılan bir antineoplastik ilaçtır. Doksorubisinin kardiyotoksisitesi, yüksek morbidite ve mortalite ile seyreden bir toksisite olarak sıklıkla görülür. Bu çalışmada, hemopressinin DOX ile indüklenen kardiyotoksik sıçanlar üzerindeki etkilerini sintigrafik, elektrokardiyografik (EKG) ve biyokimyasal yöntemlerle değerlendirmek amaçlanmıştır. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Yirmi sekiz erkek Wistar sıçan rastgele dört gruba ayrıldı: kontrol (CON), doksorubisin (DOX), HEM 10 μg/kg ve HEM 50 μg/kg. Kardiyotoksisite, DOX'un üç ardışık gün boyunca (12., 13. ve 14. günler) intraperitoneal (i.p.) uygulanmasıyla oluşturuldu (toplam kümülatif doz: 18 mg/kg). HEM gruplarına 14 gün boyunca günlük 10 veya 50 μg/kg HEM (i.p.) uygulanırken, 12.–14. günlerde eş zamanlı olarak DOX (toplam kümülatif doz: 18 mg/kg, i.p.) verildi. On beşinci günde, HEM'in DOX kaynaklı kardiyotoksisite üzerindeki etkileri sintigrafik, elektrokardiyografik (EKG) ve biyokimyasal yöntemlerle değerlendirildi. BULGULAR: Sıçanlarda DOX'un neden olduğu kardiyotoksisite; uzamış QRS kompleksi ve QT aralığı, ST segment elevasyonu gibi EKG anormallikleri, azalmış kalp hızı, artmış kardiyak troponin T (cTnT) düzeyleri, yükselmiş tümör nekroz faktörü-alfa (TNF-α) ve interlökin-6 (IL-6) konsantrasyonları ile artmış 99mTc-PYP tutulumu ile karakterizedir (p < 0,001). HEM 10 μg/kg ve HEM 50 μg/kg ile ön tedavi, DOX'un neden olduğu EKG değişikliklerini önemli ölçüde bastırmıştır (p<0,001). Dahası, HEM ile ön tedavi, sıçanlarda serum cTnT düzeyini, kalp dokusu TNF-α, IL-6 ve 99mTc-PYP alımını önemli ölçüde azaltmıştır (p < 0,001). SONUÇ: EKG anormallikleri, biyokimyasal değişiklikler ve 99mTc-PYP alımı parametreleri, sıçanlarda DOX kaynaklı kardiyotoksisiteyi gösterebilir. Bu çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, HEM'in DOX kaynaklı kardiyotoksisite üzerinde güçlü yararlı etkileri vardır.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Doxorubicin (DOX) is a prominent chemotherapeutic agent. However, its use is limited by serious cardiotoxicity. This study investigates the cardioprotective potential of hemopressin against DOX-induced cardiac injury in rats through scintigraphic, ECG, and biochemical evaluations. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty-eight male Wistar rats were divided into four groups: control (CON), doxorubicin (DOX), HEM 10 μg/kg, and HEM 50 μg/kg. Cardiotoxicity was induced by intraperitoneal administration of DOX over three consecutive days (days 12–14), with a total cumulative dose of 18 mg/kg. Rats in the HEM groups received daily intraperitoneal HEM (10 or 50 μg/kg) for 14 days, with concomitant DOX administration on days 12–14. On day 15, cardiac injury was evaluated using scintigraphic imaging, electrocardiographic recordings, and biochemical analyses. RESULTS: DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in rats was characterized by ECG abnormalities, including prolonged QRS complex and QT interval, ST-segment elevation, reduced heart rate, increased cardiac troponin T (cTnT) levels, elevated tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) concentrations, and increased 99mTc-PYP uptake (p < 0.001). Pretreatment with HEM 10 μg/kg and HEM 50 μg/kg significantly suppressed DOX-induced ECG changes (p<0.001). Moreover, pretreatment with HEM significantly reduced serum cTnT levels, heart tissue TNF-α and IL-6 concentrations, and 99mTc-PYP uptake in rats (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Electrocardiographic alterations, biochemical deviations, and increased myocardial uptake of 99mTc-PYP are indicative of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in rats. Findings from this study demonstrate that HEM exerts significant cardioprotective effects against DOX-associated cardiac injury.
