Mitigation of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity by dichloroacetate: potential roles of restoration of PGC-1α/SIRT3 signaling and suppression of oxidative stress and apoptosis.

The present study is the first to provide in vivo evidence that DCA is effective in protecting against acute DOX cardiotoxicity. Additionally, the study highlights the potential of administering metabolic modulators to safeguard against DOX cardiotoxicity.
