Abstract
Doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) poses a significant challenge in cancer treatment. This study investigated the role of SLAMF7 in DIC, particularly in macrophage-mediated inflammation. Using SLAMF7 knockout mice, we found that SLAMF7 deficiency exacerbates DIC and amplifies inflammatory responses. Mechanistically, SLAMF7 interacts with TNF receptor-associated factor 6 to attenuate nuclear factor κB signaling, reducing oxidative stress and proinflammatory cytokines. Notably, administering recombinant SLAMF7 protein effectively mitigated DIC. These findings underscore the critical role of SLAMF7 in protecting against DIC, positioning it as a promising therapeutic target.
期刊介绍:
JACC: Basic to Translational Science is an open access journal that is part of the renowned Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC). It focuses on advancing the field of Translational Cardiovascular Medicine and aims to accelerate the translation of new scientific discoveries into therapies that improve outcomes for patients with or at risk for Cardiovascular Disease. The journal covers thematic areas such as pre-clinical research, clinical trials, personalized medicine, novel drugs, devices, and biologics, proteomics, genomics, and metabolomics, as well as early phase clinical trial methodology.
