Despite effective anticancer effects, the use of doxorubicin (Dox) is limited due to its side effects as cardiotoxicity. Corosolic acid (CRA) is a pentacyclic triterpene acid isolated from Lagerstroemia speciosa L. (Banaba) leaves, and it has also been shown to improve myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial infarction which expected to be used in clinical pharmaceuticals. The purpose of this study was to explore whether CRA can improve myocardial injury caused by Dox and to clarify potential mechanisms. C57 BL/6J mice and AMPKα2 knockout mice were given a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of Dox (5 mg/kg) every week for 4 weeks, while normal saline (NS) was used as control. Mice were given CRA (10 mg/kg or 20 mg/kg) or equal volumes of normal saline daily after the first time i.p. injection of Dox. After 4 weeks, echocardiography, gravimetric, hemodynamic, histological, and biochemical analyses were conducted. After Dox injury, compared with the control group, CRA increased the survival rate of mice, improved the cardiac function, decreased the oxidative stress, and reduced the apoptosis. CRA may function by promoting transcription factor EB (TFEB) nuclear translocation and thus restoring autophagic flux. We also observed that CRA protected mitochondrial structure and function, which may benefit from oxidative stress reduction or TFEB activation. In vitro, the protective effect of CRA is reversed by TFEB deletion. Then, we evaluated the expression of AMPKα2/mTOR C1 signaling pathway, the main pathway of TFEB activation. In vivo and in vitro, CRA promoted TFEB nuclear translocation by activating AMPKα2/mTOR C1 signaling, while ablating AMPKα2 reversed these results and accompanied with a decrease in the ability of CRA to resist Dox-induced cardiotoxicity. Thus, we suggested that CRA activated TFEB in an AMPKα2-dependent manner to protect against Dox cardiotoxicity. This study confirms the role and mechanism of CRA in the treatment of Dox-induced cardiac injury. Dox-induced damage to autophagy includes autophagosomes maturation disorders and autophagolysosomes acidification defects, CRA restored autophagic flux, and promoted lysosomal degradation by activating TFEB in an AMPKα2-depended manner, stabilized mitochondrial function, ultimately protected against Dox-induced cardiotoxicity.
