Dynamic and not static change in ventricular repolarization is a substrate of ventricular arrhythmia on chronic ischemic myocardium.

abstract：AIMS:Doxorubicin (DOX) is widely used in cytostatic treatments, although it may cause cardiovascular dysfunction as a side effect. DOX treatment leads to enhanced free radical production that in turn causes DNA strand breakage culminating in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activation and mitochondrial and cellular d...
