Comprehensive review of cardiovascular toxicity of drugs and related agents

Abstract: Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in most developed countries of the world. Pharmaceuticals, illicit drugs, and toxins can significantly contribute to the overall cardiovascular burden and thus deserve attention. The present article is a systematic overview of drugs that may induce distinct cardiovascular toxicity. The compounds are classified into agents that have significant effects on the heart, blood vessels, or both. The mechanism(s) of toxic action are discussed and t… Show more

“…Cardiovascular toxicity is a major limiting factor in drug development and requires multiple cost-effective models to perform toxicological evaluation [73,74] . Zebrafish is now a well-validated animal model to study treatment with small molecules, as well as to elucidate biological functions, and deciphering the mechanism of bioactive compounds [74] .…”

“…The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) encodes a potassium channel protein, which is important for cardiac electrical activity and the coordination of heartbeat. Blockade of the hERG potassium channel can result in a potentially fatal disorder called long QT syndrome, as well as serious cardiotoxicity, which has led to the withdrawal of several marketed drugs and the failure of many drug research and development projects (Fermini and Fossa, 2003;Recanatini et al, 2005;Sanguinetti and Tristani-Firouzi, 2006;Bowes et al, 2012;Nachimuthu et al, 2012;Zhang et al, 2012;Shah, 2013;Kalyaanamoorthy and Barakat, 2018;Mladenka et al, 2018). Therefore, drug candidates that can bind with hERG should be eliminated as early as possible in drug discovery studies.…”

“…Exposing to nicotine stimulates macrophages to release pro-inflammatory mediators. Then, they activate neutrophils to synthesize free radicals, elastase and inflammatory cytokines including TNF--6 and IL-1b [80]. It has been shown that inflammatory cytokines have an important role in the development and progression of chronic renal failure (CRF) [81].…”
