Abstract

The introduction of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) has revolutionised cancer treatment, yet concerns regarding cardiovascular toxicity have surfaced. This piece delves into the interplay between AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signalling and TKI-induced cardiovascular toxicity. The study unravels the intricate relationship between AMPK activation and TKI-induced cardiovascular toxicity, aiming to ascertain whether AMPK can play a strategic role in mitigating adverse effects. Beyond unravelling mechanistic insights, the research sets the stage for future therapeutic approaches, envisioning AMPK activation as a pivotal connection for balancing effective cancer treatment with cardiovascular well-being. As research advances, the potential of AMPK activation not only addresses challenges in TKI-induced cardiovascular toxicity but also shapes the future landscape of personalised anticancer therapies. The article explores the mechanisms of TKI-induced toxicity, AMPK’s impact on cardiovascular health, and the potential therapeutic implications of AMPK activation in alleviating TKI-associated toxicities. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
