Despite its efficacy, doxorubicin exposure can be associated with cardiotoxicity, which may present acutely or chronically, potentially leading to severe cardiac arrhythmia and congestive heart failure. Mechanisms underlying cardiotoxicity are multifactorial, including oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, DNA damage via topoisomerase IIβ, inflammation and dysregulated cell death pathways such as apoptosis, pyroptosis and ferroptosis. In dogs, known risk factors include higher cumulative dose, breed predisposition to idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, and higher body weight. Cardiac biomarkers, electrocardiography, echocardiography and other advanced imaging techniques have been employed to detect cardiac changes that can be seen also in the absence of clinical signs. However, current evidence is predominantly derived from experimental and retrospective research, highlighting the need for large prospective clinical studies to strengthen recommendations for monitoring and prevention. A deeper understanding of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in dogs is needed to identify factors influencing individual susceptibility, clarify the progression from subclinical damage to clinical cardiac dysfunction, and guide future research. Emerging approaches, including advanced echocardiography, microRNAs, proteomic biomarkers and pharmacokinetic modelling, may help improve early detection and guide more individualised dosing to minimise toxicity.</p>","PeriodicalId":23693,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary and comparative oncology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149220952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) is an extension of OCT that provides additional information about tissue polarization contrast. In this prospective study we wanted to evaluate whether PS-OCT improves tissue differentiation and diagnostic accuracy compared to spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT) alone. PS-OCT images from surgical margins of 10 resected STS were compared with histopathology to identify characteristic features of normal and neoplastic tissues. Then, six observers of varying OCT image interpretation experience assessed surgical margins from 30 resected STS using SD-OCT alone and SD-OCT combined with PS-OCT. PS-OCT images demonstrated distinct birefringence (optical patterns), corresponding to tissue organization: skeletal muscle exhibited alternating high and low birefringence bands, fascia showed variable birefringence and STS had uniformly low birefringence. Overall diagnostic accuracy was high for both modalities [correct classification rate: SD-OCT alone 93.7% (95% confidence interval (CI): 90.1, 96.0) vs. SD-OCT combined with PS-OCT 92.6% (95% = CI: 89.3, 95.4)]; adding PS-OCT did not significantly improve accuracy across all observers (p = 0.82), though expert observers benefited significantly (p = 0.0018).

This retrospective study evaluated the effect of prophylactic trimethoprim-sulfadiazine administration on gastrointestinal and haematologic adverse events in dogs with high-grade multicentric lymphoma receiving doxorubicin for the first time. Medical records from three referral hospitals in Queensland, Australia were reviewed for dogs treated between January 2008 and November 2025.

This study aimed to establish and comparatively characterise a panel of FOSCC cell lines derived from tumours with and without documented bone invasion to identify intrinsic biological differences. Four FOSCC cell lines were evaluated for epithelial identity, growth kinetics, clonogenicity, migratory capacity and chemosensitivity. All cell lines retained epithelial characteristics, with consistent expression of epithelial markers; however, variation in cytokeratin-19 and vimentin suggested phenotypic heterogeneity and partial epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity. The cell lines demonstrated distinct proliferation rates, doubling times, and clonogenic capacities. Morphologically, these cells displayed varying degrees of peripheral filopodial activity. Functional assays further revealed substantial migratory capacity under both serum-supplemented and serum-free conditions, with differences across cell lines. Chemosensitivity profiling showed heterogeneous responses to targeted and cytotoxic agents, highlighting cell line-specific differences in drug susceptibility and potential intrinsic drug responsiveness. These findings demonstrate that FOSCC cell lines possess distinct biological properties consistent with phenotypic differences. The observed heterogeneity underscores the potential relevance of tumour origin in shaping functional behaviour and highlights the value of using multiple, well-characterised cell line models to better represent disease diversity.
