暂无%X Doxorubicin is the common chemotherapeutic agent that has been harnessed for the treatment of various types of malignancy including the treatment of soft tissue and osteosarcoma and cancers of the vital organs like breast, ovary, bladder, and thyroid. It is also used to treat leukaemia and lymphoma, however, this is an obstacle because of their prominent side effects including cardiotoxicity and lung fibrosis, we do aim to determine the role of CoQ10 as an antioxidant on the impeding the deleterious impacts of doxorubicin on tissue degenerative effects. To do so, 27 rats were subdivided into 3 groups of 9 each; CoQ10 exposed group, Doxorubicin exposed group, and CoQ10 plus Doxorubicin group. At the end of the study, the animals were sacrificed and lungs with hearts were harvested, and slides were prepared for examination under a microscope. The results indicated that doxorubicin induced abnormal cellular structure resulting in damaging cellular structures of the lung and heart while CoQ10 impeded these damaging effects and nearly restoring normal tissue structure. As a result, CoQ10 will maintain normal tissue of the lung and heart.
