TL;DR: In a mouse model of acute doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity, cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of Rac1 inhibited NADPH oxidase activation and ROS production, prevented cardiac cell death, and improved myocardial function in Rac1 knockout mice and therapeutic administration of the specific Rac1 inhibitor NSC23766 achieved similar cardio-protective effects.

TL;DR: In a mouse model of acute doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity, cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of Rac1 inhibited NADPH oxidase activation and ROS production, prevented cardiac cell death and improved myocardial function in Rac1 knockout mice, suggesting inhibition of Rac 1 may be a useful therapy for dox orubic in-inducedCardiotoxicity.
