Cancer chemotherapy induces cell stress in rapidly dividing cancer cells to trigger their growth arrest and apoptosis. However, adverse effects related to cardiotoxicity underpinned by a limited regenerative potential of the heart limits clinical application: In particular, chemotherapy with doxorubicin (DOXO) causes acute heart injury that can transition to persisting cardiomyopathy (DOXO-CM). Here, we tested if MuRF1 inhibition (“MuRFi”) was able to attenuate DOXO-CM. To mimic …
