The clinical use of doxorubicin (DOX) is largely limited by its cardiotoxicity. Previous studies have shown that jaceosidin has many biological activities. However, little is known about whether jaceosidin can attenuate DOX-related acute cardiotoxicity. Here, we investigated the therapeutic effects of jaceosidin on DOX-induced acute cardiotoxicity. Mice were intraperitoneally injected with a single dose of DOX to establish an acute cardiac injury model. To explore the protective effects, mice were orally administered jaceosidin daily for 7 days, with dosing beginning 2 days before DOX injection. The results demonstrated that jaceosidin dose-dependently reduced free radical generation, inflammation accumulation, and cell loss induced by DOX in cardiomyocytes. Further studies showed that jaceosidin treatment inhibited myocardial oxidative damage and the inflammatory response and attenuated myocardial apoptotic death, thus improving cardiac function in mice injected with DOX. The inhibitory effects of jaceosidin on DOX-related acute cardiotoxicity were mediated by activation of the sirtuin1 (Sirt1) signaling pathway. Jaceosidin lost its protective effect against DOX-related injury in Sirt1-deficient cardiomyocytes and mice. In conclusion, jaceosidin has protective potential in treating DOX-related cardiac injury through activation of the Sirt1 signaling pathway.
