Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Doxorubicin was administerd to wild type mice, SMP30 knockout mice, and transgenic mice with cardiac specific overexpression of SMP30. We demonstrated that SMP30 has a cardio-protective role by anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic effects in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Anti-aging gene, SMP30, can be a new therapeutic target to prevent heart failure.
