Recent evidence suggests the mechanistic role of mitochondria and oxidative stress in the development of celecoxib-induced cardiotoxicity. On the other, it has reported the positive effects of vitamin D on oxidative stress and the maintenance of mitochondrial functions. This current study examined the cardiac effects of celecoxib, doxorubicin, vitamin D, and a combination of them in rats. The effect of 10 days of celecoxib (100 mg/kg/day), doxorubicin (2.5 mg/kg), vitamin D (60,000 U/kg), and their combination was studied on cardiac function according to serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase (CK), glutathione (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels as well as mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenases (SDH) activity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, mitochondrial swelling, and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). Results showed that celecoxib and its combination with doxorubicin led to abnormality in paws and limbs, increased pressure in the eyes, blindness and animal death (in about 75% of the animals under study). Moreover, celecoxib and its combination with doxorubicin significantly increased cardiotoxicity biomarkers, oxidative stress markers (GSH and MDA), and mitochondrial toxicity parameters (SDH, ROS formation, MMP collapse, mitochondrial swelling). However, the combination of vitamin D with celecoxib and celecoxib + doxorubicin caused a significant reversal of deformity in paws and limbs, increased pressure in the eye, blindness, and animal death, as well as cardiotoxicity, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial parameters. This study proved for the first time the beneficial effect of vitamin D on celecoxib-induced cardiotoxicity, which is aggravated in the presence of doxorubicin through the maintenance of mitochondrial functions and its antioxidant potential.
