The clinical use of the anthracycline doxorubicin is limited by its cardiotoxicity which is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Redox cycling, mitochondrial DNA damage and electron transport chain inhibition have been identified as potential mechanisms of toxicity. However, the relative roles of each of these proposed mechanisms are still not fully understood. The purpose of this study is to identify which of these pathways independently or in combination are responsible for doxorubicin toxicity. A state of the art mathematical model of the mitochondria including the citric acid cycle, electron transport chain and ROS production and scavenging systems was extended by incorporating a novel representation for mitochondrial DNA damage and repair. In silico experiments were performed to quantify the contributions of each of the toxicity mechanisms to mitochondrial dysfunction during the acute and chronic stages of toxicity. Simulations predict that redox cycling has a minor role in doxorubicin cardiotoxicity. Electron transport chain inhibition is the main pathway for acute toxicity for supratherapeutic doses, being lethal at mitochondrial concentrations higher than 200μM. Direct mitochondrial DNA damage is the principal pathway of chronic cardiotoxicity for therapeutic doses, leading to a progressive and irreversible long term mitochondrial dysfunction. Doxorubicin is a potent anticancer drug, but its efficacy is limited by a cumulative dose-dependent cardiotoxicity. Multiple pathways are involved in the drug cardiotoxicity, however, the underlying mechanisms are still not fully elucidated. Here we developed a computational model to study doxorubicin mitochondrial cardiotoxicity, which allowed for the first time, a systematic test of different hypothesis in a unified framework. By quantitatively comparing the effect of multiple toxicity mechanisms, we could identify that electron transport chain is the main cause of acute toxicity, while direct damage to the mitochondrial DNA is the principal pathway of chronic cardiotoxicity. This is a crucial step in developing new antitumor therapies, toxicity screens and developing treatments to mitigate doxorubicin cardiotoxicity.
