Summary

This review article analyses the contribution of experimental research to the understanding of anti-cancer drug cardiotoxicity mechanisms and the options for cardioprotection. We focused on drugs inducing direct toxicity against cardiomyocytes resulting in left ventricular dysfunction. Typical features of Type I and Type II toxicity (represented by anthracyclines and trastuzumab/sunitinib, respectively) are discussed. The paper also describes in vivo models for experimental study of anthracycline cardiotoxicity.

Keywords:
mechanisms of cardiotoxicity – experimental models – anthracyclines – kinase inhibitors
