Abstract : The effect of adriamycin(ADR) chemotherapy on cratinine phosphokinase (CPK) and pathological lesions in heart was studied with Balb/c mice. WR-1065 was used as a chemoprotector against the cardiotoxicity of ADR. CPK levels were measured at different intervals and the heart of treated animals were analyzed for pathological changes. The results indicate that there is a significant relationship between the CPK levels and pathological lesions. WR-1065 could reduce tge cardiotoxicity induced by ADR, without altering its antineoplastic activity
