Abstrakt: ICRF-187 was tested for cardioprotective activity in doxorubicin-treated mice and guinea pigs. Pretreatment with i.p. ICRF-187 caused a significant decrease in the indicence of i.v. doxorubicin-induced myocardial histological damage in the mouse. I.p. ICRF-187 did not, however, reduce the effect of i.p. doxorubicin on a functional myocardial effect of this antitumour drug, a reduced histamine responsiveness of right atria in vitro. These data suggest that ICRF-187 may not be specific for all the cardiac effects of doxorubicin.
