This study aims to explore the changes in calcium regulation in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) during doxorubicin (DOX)?treatment. Sprague–Dawley rats were treated with intravenous DOX (1.5?mg/kg) twice weekly for 12 treatments. The hemodynamic changes, myocardial oxidative stress, levels of cardiac toxicity markers, and calcium handling of the myocardial SR were observed. When the accumulation of DOX reached 12?mg/kg, (1) heart weight, left ventricular mass, and lung congestion increased significantly, and ascites appeared; (2) SBP, DBP, MAP, +dP/dt, ?dP/dt, and LVSP decreased significantly, and LVEDP increased (p?iNOS activity and MDA and NO concentrations significantly increased, while the SOD decreased (p?p?2+ absorption function and Ca2+-stimulated ATPase activity declined dramatically, as did the SERCA2 and phospholamban levels (p?p?
