Fasudil Protects Against Diclofenac-Induced Hepatorenal and Gastric Injury via Modulation of ROCK/TLR4/SIRT1 Signaling and Preservation of Tight Junctions

Background: Diclofenac is a widely consumed non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, yet its clinical utility is limited by severe hepatotoxicity, acute kidney injury, and gastric ulceration. While the RhoA/ROCK pathway is implicated in inflammation, its potential as a therapeutic t...

Vardenafil Alleviates Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity Associated with Restoration of the AMPK/SIRT1 Signaling Pathway

Background: Doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) is a major limitation of anthracycline chemotherapy and is characterized by oxidative stress, apoptosis, and myocardial remodeling. Dysregulation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and its downstream effector sirtuin-1 (SIR...
