Abstract
Diabetes is commonly associated with an elevated level of reactive carbonyl species due to alteration of glucose and fatty acid metabolism. These metabolic changes cause an abnormality in cardiac Ca2+ regulation that can lead to cardiomyopathies. In this study, we explored how the reactive α-dicarbonyl methylglyoxal (MGO) affects Ca2+ regulation in mouse ventricular myocytes. Analysis of intracellular Ca2+ dynamics revealed that MGO (200 μM) increases action potential (AP)-induced Ca2+ transients and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ load, with a limited effect on L-type Ca2+ channel-mediated Ca2+ transients and SERCA-mediated Ca2+ uptake. At the same time, MGO significantly slowed down cytosolic Ca2+ extrusion by Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX). MGO also increased the frequency of Ca2+ waves during rest and these Ca2+ release events were abolished by an external solution with zero [Na+] and [Ca2+]. Adrenergic receptor activation with isoproterenol (10 nM) increased Ca2+ transients and SR Ca2+ load, but it also triggered spontaneous Ca2+ waves in 27% of studied cells. Pretreatment of myocytes with MGO increased the fraction of cells with Ca2+ waves during adrenergic receptor stimulation by 163%. Measurements of intracellular [Na+] revealed that MGO increases cytosolic [Na+] by 57% from the maximal effect produced by the Na+-K+ ATPase inhibitor ouabain (20 μM). This increase in cytosolic [Na+] was a result of activation of a tetrodotoxin-sensitive Na+ influx, but not an inhibition of Na+-K+ ATPase. An increase in cytosolic [Na+] after treating cells with ouabain produced similar effects on Ca2+ regulation as MGO. These results suggest that protein carbonylation can affect cardiac Ca2+ regulation by increasing cytosolic [Na+] via a tetrodotoxin-sensitive pathway. This, in turn, reduces Ca2+ extrusion by NCX, causing SR Ca2+ overload and spontaneous Ca2+ waves.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most prevalent complication of diabetes, and has been demonstrated to be independently associated with cardiovascular events and mortality. This aim of this study was to investigate the subclinical left ventricular (LV) myocardial dysfunction in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with and without DPN. METHODS One hundred and thirty T2DM patients without DPN, 61 patients with DPN and 65 age and sex-matched controls who underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging were included, all subjects had no symptoms of heart failure and LV ejection fraction ≥ 50%. LV myocardial non-infarct late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) was determined. LV global strains, including radial, circumferential and longitudinal peak strain (PS) and peak systolic and diastolic strain rates (PSSR and PDSR, respectively), were evaluated using CMR feature tracking and compared among the three groups. Multivariable linear regression analyses were performed to determine the independent factors of reduced LV global myocardial strains in T2DM patients. RESULTS The prevalence of non-infarct LGE was higher in patients with DPN than those without DPN (37.7% vs. 19.2%, p = 0.008). The LV radial and longitudinal PS (radial: 36.60 ± 7.24% vs. 33.57 ± 7.30% vs. 30.72 ± 8.68%; longitudinal: - 15.03 ± 2.52% vs. - 13.39 ± 2.48% vs. - 11.89 ± 3.02%), as well as longitudinal PDSR [0.89 (0.76, 1.05) 1/s vs. 0.80 (0.71, 0.93) 1/s vs. 0.77 (0.63, 0.87) 1/s] were decreased significantly from controls through T2DM patients without DPN to patients with DPN (all p < 0.001). LV radial and circumferential PDSR, as well as circumferential PS were reduced in both patient groups (all p < 0.05), but were not different between the two groups (all p > 0.05). Radial and longitudinal PSSR were decreased in patients with DPN (p = 0.006 and 0.003, respectively) but preserved in those without DPN (all p > 0.05). Multivariable linear regression analyses adjusting for confounders demonstrated that DPN was independently associated with LV radial and longitudinal PS (β = - 3.025 and 1.187, p = 0.014 and 0.003, respectively) and PDSR (β = 0.283 and - 0.086, p = 0.016 and 0.001, respectively), as well as radial PSSR (β = - 0.266, p = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS There was more severe subclinical LV dysfunction in T2DM patients complicated with DPN than those without DPN, suggesting further prospective study with more active intervention in this cohort of patients.

Impact of pretransplant T2DM on left ventricular deformation and myocardial perfusion in heart transplanted recipients: a 3.0 T cardiac magnetic resonance study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:216. [PMID: 38907259 PMCID: PMC11193171 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02323-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pretransplant type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with increased cardiovascular and all-cause mortality after heart transplant (HT), but the underlying causes of this association remain unclear. The purpose of this research was to examine the impact of T2DM on left ventricular (LV) myocardial deformation and myocardial perfusion following heart transplantation using cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging. METHODS We investigated thirty-one HT recipients with pretransplant T2DM [HT(DM+)], thirty-four HT recipients without pretransplant T2DM [HT(DM-)] and thirty-six controls. LV myocardial strains, including the global longitudinal, radial, and circumferential strain (GLS, GRS and GCS, respectively), were calculated and compared among groups, as were resting myocardial perfusion indices, which included time to peak myocardial signal intensity (TTM), maximum signal intensity (MaxSI), and Upslope. The relationships between LV strain parameters or perfusion indices and biochemical indicators were determined through Spearman's analysis. The impact of T2DM on LV strains in HT recipients was assessed using multivariable linear regression analyses with backward stepwise selection. RESULTS In the HT(DM+) group, the LV GLS, GRS, and GCS exhibited significantly lower magnitudes than those in both the HT(DM-) and control groups. TTM was higher in the HT(DM+) group than in both the HT(DM-) and control groups, while no significant differences were observed among the groups regarding Upslope and MaxSI. There was a negative correlation between glycated hemoglobin and the magnitude of strains (longitudinal, r = - 0.399; radial, r = - 0.362; circumferential, r = - 0.389) (all P < 0.05), and a positive correlation with TTM (r = 0.485, P < 0.001). Regression analyses that included both pretransplant T2DM and perfusion indices revealed that pretransplant T2DM, rather than perfusion indices, was an independent determinant of LV strain (β = longitudinal, - 0.508; radial, - 0.370; circumferential, - 0.371) (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION In heart transplant recipients, pretransplant T2DM has a detrimental effect on subclinical left ventricular systolic function and could potentially impact myocardial microcirculation following HT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) is characterized by asymptomatic stage B heart failure (SBHF) caused by diabetes-related metabolic alterations. DbCM is associated with an increased risk of progression to overt heart failure (HF). The prevalence of DbCM in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is not well established. This study aims to determine prevalence of DbCM in adult T2D patients in real-world clinical practice. METHODS Retrospective multi-step review of electronic medical records of patients with the diagnosis of T2D who had echocardiogram at UC San Diego Medical Center (UCSD) within 2010-2019 was conducted to identify T2D patients with SBHF. We defined "pure" DbCM when SBHF is associated solely with T2D and "mixed" SBHF when other medical conditions can contribute to SBHF. "Pure" DbCM was diagnosed in T2D patients with echocardiographic demonstration of SBHF defined as left atrial (LA) enlargement (LAE), as evidenced by LA volume index ≥ 34 mL/m2, in the presence of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 45%, while excluding overt HF and comorbidities that can contribute to SBHF. RESULTS Of 778,314 UCSD patients in 2010-2019, 45,600 (5.9%) had T2D diagnosis. In this group, 15,182 T2D patients (33.3%) had echocardiogram and, among them, 13,680 (90.1%) had LVEF ≥ 45%. Out of 13,680 patients, 4,790 patients had LAE. Of them, 1,070 patients were excluded due to incomplete data and/or a lack of confirmed T2D according to the American Diabetes Association recommendations. Thus, 3,720 T2D patients with LVEF ≥ 45% and LAE were identified, regardless of HF symptoms. In this group, 1,604 patients (43.1%) had overt HF and were excluded. Thus, 2,116 T2D patients (56.9% of T2D patients with LVEF ≥ 45% and LAE) with asymptomatic SBHF were identified. Out of them, 1,773 patients (83.8%) were diagnosed with "mixed" SBHF due to comorbidities such as hypertension (58%), coronary artery disease (36%), and valvular heart disease (17%). Finally, 343 patients met the diagnostic criteria of "pure" DbCM, which represents 16.2% of T2D patients with SBHF, i.e., at least 2.9% of the entire T2D population in this study. CONCLUSIONS Our findings provide insights into prevalence of DbCM in real-world clinical practice and indicate that DbCM affects a significant portion of T2D patients.

Impact of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus on Left Atrioventricular Coupling and Left Atrial Deformation in Patients with Essential Hypertension: An MRI Feature Tracking Study. J Magn Reson Imaging 2024. [PMID: 38703135 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.29427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 04/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension (HTN) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are both associated with left ventricular (LV) and left atrial (LA) structural and functional abnormalities; however, the relationship between the left atrium and ventricle in this population is unclear. PURPOSE To identify differences between hypertensive patients with and without T2DM as the basis for further investigation the atrioventricular coupling relationship. STUDY TYPE Cross-sectional, retrospective study. POPULATION 89 hypertensive patients without T2DM [HTN (T2DM-)] (age: 58.4 +/- 11.9 years, 48 male), 62 hypertensive patients with T2DM [HTN (T2DM+)] (age: 58.5 +/- 9.1 years, 32 male) and 70 matched controls (age: 55.0 +/- 9.6 years, 37 male). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 2D balanced steady-state free precession cine sequence at 3.0 T. ASSESSMENT LA reservoir, conduit, and booster strain (εs, εe, and εa) and strain rate (SRs, SRe, and SRa), LV radial, circumferential and longitudinal peak strain (PS) and peak systolic strain rate and peak diastolic strain rate (PSSR and PDSR) were derived from LA and LV cine images and compared between groups. STATISTICAL TESTS Chi-square or Fisher's exact test, one-way analysis of variance, analysis of covariance, Pearson's correlation, multivariable linear regression analysis, and intraclass correlation coefficient. A P value <0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS Compared with controls, εs, εe, SRe and PS-longitudinal, PDSR-radial, and PDSR-longitudinal were significantly lower in HTN (T2DM-) group, and they were even lower in HTN (T2DM+) group than in both controls and HTN (T2DM-) group. SRs, εa, SRa, as well as PS-radial, PS-circumferential, PSSR-radial, and PSSR-circumferential were significantly lower in HTN (T2DM+) compared with controls. Multivariable regression analyses demonstrated that: T2DM and PS-circumferential and PS-longitudinal (β = -4.026, -0.486, and -0.670, respectively) were significantly associated with εs; T2DM and PDSR-radial and PDSR-circumferential were significantly associated with εe (β = -3.406, -3.352, and -6.290, respectively); T2DM and PDSR-radial were significantly associated with SRe (β = 0.371 and 0.270, respectively); T2DM and PDSR-longitudinal were significantly associated with εa (β = -1.831 and 5.215, respectively); and PDSR-longitudinal was significantly associated with SRa (β = 1.07). DATA CONCLUSION In hypertensive patients, there was severer LA dysfunction in those with coexisting T2DM, which may be associated with more severe LV dysfunction and suggests adverse atrioventricular coupling. EVIDENCE LEVEL 3. TECHNICAL EFFICACY Stage 3.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most prevalent diseases worldwide, greatly impacting patients' quality of life. This article reviews the progress in Salvia miltiorrhiza, an ancient Chinese plant, for the treatment of DM and its associated complications. Extensive studies have been conducted on the chemical composition and pharmacological effects of S miltiorrhiza, including its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. It has demonstrated potential in preventing and treating diabetes and its consequences by improving peripheral nerve function and increasing retinal thickness in diabetic individuals. Moreover, S miltiorrhiza has shown effectiveness when used in conjunction with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), and statins. The safety and tolerability of S miltiorrhiza have also been thoroughly investigated. Despite the established benefits of managing DM and its complications, further research is needed to determine appropriate usage, dosage, long-term health benefits, and safety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Progression to symptomatic heart failure is a complication of type 2 diabetes; heart failure onset in this setting is commonly preceded by deterioration in exercise capacity. OBJECTIVES The study sought to determine whether AT-001, a highly selective aldose reductase inhibitor, can stabilize exercise capacity among individuals with diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) and reduced peak oxygen uptake (Vo2). METHODS A total of 691 individuals with DbCM meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria were randomized to receive placebo or ascending doses of AT-001 twice daily. Stratification at inclusion included region of enrollment, cardiopulmonary exercise test results, and use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists. The primary endpoint was proportional change in peak Vo2 from baseline to 15 months. Subgroup analyses included measures of disease severity and stratification variables. RESULTS The mean age was 67.5 ± 7.2 years, and 50.4% of participants were women. By 15 months, peak Vo2 fell in the placebo-treated patients by -0.31 mL/kg/min (P = 0.005 compared to baseline), whereas in those receiving high-dose AT-001, peak Vo2 fell by -0.01 mL/kg/min (P = 0.21); the difference in peak Vo2 between placebo and high-dose AT-001 was 0.30 (P = 0.19). In prespecified subgroup analyses among those not receiving sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists at baseline, the difference between peak Vo2 in placebo vs high-dose AT-001 at 15 months was 0.62 mL/kg/min (P = 0.04; interaction P = 0.10). CONCLUSIONS Among individuals with DbCM and impaired exercise capacity, treatment with AT-001 for 15 months did not result in significantly better exercise capacity compared with placebo.

Irisin, a cleavage peptide off fibronectin type III domain-containing 5, has been shown to preserve cardiac function in cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury. Whether or not irisin plays a cardioprotective role in DCM is not known. METHODS AND RESULTS T1DM was induced by multiple low-dose intraperitoneal injections of streptozotocin (STZ). Our current study showed that irisin expression/level was lower in the heart and serum of mice with STZ-induced TIDM. Irisin supplementation by intraperitoneal injection improved the impaired cardiac function in mice with DCM, which was ascribed to the inhibition of ferroptosis, because the increased ferroptosis, associated with increased cardiac malondialdehyde (MDA), decreased reduced glutathione (GSH) and protein expressions of solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), was ameliorated by irisin. In the presence of erastin, a ferroptosis inducer, the irisin-mediated protective effects were blocked. Mechanistically, irisin treatment increased Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and decreased p53 K382 acetylation, which decreased p53 protein expression by increasing its degradation, consequently upregulated SLC7A11 and GPX4 expressions. Thus, irisin-mediated reduction in p53 decreases ferroptosis and protects cardiomyocytes against injury due to high glucose. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that irisin could improve cardiac function by suppressing ferroptosis in T1DM via the SIRT1-p53-SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway. Irisin may be a therapeutic approach in the management of T1DM-induced cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Diabetes is commonly associated with an elevated level of reactive carbonyl species due to alteration of glucose and fatty acid metabolism. These metabolic changes cause an abnormality in cardiac Ca2+ regulation that can lead to cardiomyopathies. In this study, we explored how the reactive α-dicarbonyl methylglyoxal (MGO) affects Ca2+ regulation in mouse ventricular myocytes. Analysis of intracellular Ca2+ dynamics revealed that MGO (200 μM) increases action potential (AP)-induced Ca2+ transients and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ load, with a limited effect on L-type Ca2+ channel-mediated Ca2+ transients and SERCA-mediated Ca2+ uptake. At the same time, MGO significantly slowed down cytosolic Ca2+ extrusion by Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX). MGO also increased the frequency of Ca2+ waves during rest and these Ca2+ release events were abolished by an external solution with zero [Na+] and [Ca2+]. Adrenergic receptor activation with isoproterenol (10 nM) increased Ca2+ transients and SR Ca2+ load, but it also triggered spontaneous Ca2+ waves in 27% of studied cells. Pretreatment of myocytes with MGO increased the fraction of cells with Ca2+ waves during adrenergic receptor stimulation by 163%. Measurements of intracellular [Na+] revealed that MGO increases cytosolic [Na+] by 57% from the maximal effect produced by the Na+-K+ ATPase inhibitor ouabain (20 μM). This increase in cytosolic [Na+] was a result of activation of a tetrodotoxin-sensitive Na+ influx, but not an inhibition of Na+-K+ ATPase. An increase in cytosolic [Na+] after treating cells with ouabain produced similar effects on Ca2+ regulation as MGO. These results suggest that protein carbonylation can affect cardiac Ca2+ regulation by increasing cytosolic [Na+] via a tetrodotoxin-sensitive pathway. This, in turn, reduces Ca2+ extrusion by NCX, causing SR Ca2+ overload and spontaneous Ca2+ waves.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is one of the major causes of ischemic and nonischemic heart failure. While hypertension and coronary artery disease are frequent comorbidities in patients with diabetes, cardiac contractile dysfunction and remodeling occur in diabetic patients even without comorbidities, which is referred to as diabetic cardiomyopathy. Investigations in recent decades have demonstrated that the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), impaired handling of intracellular Ca2+, and alterations in energy metabolism are involved in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. AMP deaminase (AMPD) directly regulates adenine nucleotide metabolism and energy transfer by adenylate kinase and indirectly modulates xanthine oxidoreductase-mediated pathways and AMP-activated protein kinase-mediated signaling. Upregulation of AMPD in diabetic hearts was first reported more than 30 years ago, and subsequent studies showed similar upregulation in the liver and skeletal muscle. Evidence for the roles of AMPD in diabetes-induced fatty liver, sarcopenia, and heart failure has been accumulating. A series of our recent studies showed that AMPD localizes in the mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane as well as the sarcoplasmic reticulum and cytosol and participates in the regulation of mitochondrial Ca2+ and suggested that upregulated AMPD contributes to contractile dysfunction in diabetic cardiomyopathy via increased generation of ROS, adenine nucleotide depletion, and impaired mitochondrial respiration. The detrimental effects of AMPD were manifested at times of increased cardiac workload by pressure loading. In this review, we briefly summarize the expression and functions of AMPD in the heart and discuss the roles of AMPD in diabetic cardiomyopathy, mainly focusing on contractile dysfunction caused by this disorder.

Abstract
In adulthood, individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus may develop a condition of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. However, subclinical changes to the heart in diabetes are likely to occur prior to the clinical presentation. This cross-sectional study aimed to compare left atrial function by echocardiography between 43 individuals with type 1 diabetes and 43 healthy controls, aged 10-30 years. All participants underwent echocardiography and 2D speckle tracking measurements for left atrial phase function parameters. Physical capacity was assessed by exercise test on a bicycle. Results showed that participants with type 1 diabetes had significantly lower left atrial function parameters than healthy controls (p < 0.05). There was a significant negative correlation between HbA1c means and reservoir and conduit strain (p < 0.05) and individuals with BMI < 30 showed a lower left atrial stiffness (p < 0.05). Individuals with type 1 diabetes and a higher physical capacity did not differ from their healthy peers. Results indicate that lower HbA1c levels, BMI < 30 and a higher physical capacity are favourable in terms of left atrial function in children and young adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Left atrial strain by echocardiography might become a new important tool in assessing heart function in T1DM.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is increasing at an alarming rate, primary due to the rising in aging, obesity and diabetes. Notably, individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) face a significantly elevated risk of HF, leading to more hospitalizations and increased case fatality rates. Several risk factors contribute to HF in T1D, including poor glycemic control, female gender, smoking, hypertension, elevated BMI, and albuminuria. However, early and intensive glycemic control can mitigate the long-term risk of HF in individuals with T1D. The pathophysiology of diabetes-associated HF is complex and multifactorial, and the underlying mechanisms in T1D remain incompletely elucidated. In terms of treatment, much of the evidence comes from type 2 diabetes (T2D) populations, so applying it to T1D requires caution. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors have shown benefits in HF outcomes, even in non-diabetic populations. However, most of the information about HF and the evidence from cardiovascular safety trials related to glucose lowering medications refer to T2D. Glycemic control is key, but the link between hypoglycemia and HF hospitalization risk requires further study. Glycemic variability, common in T1D, is an independent HF risk factor. Technological advances offer the potential to improve glycemic control, including glycemic variability, and may play a role in preventing HF. In summary, HF in T1D is a complex challenge with unique dimensions. This review focuses on HF in individuals with T1D, exploring its epidemiology, risk factors, pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment, which is crucial for developing tailored prevention and management strategies for this population.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetes is a debilitating disease that leads to complications like cardiac dysfunction and heart failure. In this study, we investigated the pathophysiology of diabetes-induced cardiac dysfunction in mice with dyslipidemia. We hypothesize diabetes in ApoE knockout (ApoE-/-) mice induces cardiac dysfunction by increasing inflammation and necroptosis. Methods ApoE-/- mice were divided into experimental groups: Control, Streptozotocin (STZ), STZ + MSC-Exo (mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes), and STZ+MEF-Exo (Mouse embryonic fibroblast derived exosomes). At Day 42, we assessed cardiac function, collected blood and heart tissues. Heart tissue samples were analyzed for inflammation, necroptosis, signaling mechanism, hypertrophy and adverse structural remodeling using histology, immunohistochemistry, western blotting, RT-PCR, cytokine array and TF array. Results and Discussion STZ treated ApoE-/- mice developed diabetes, with significantly (p<0.05) increased blood glucose and body weight loss. These mice developed cardiac dysfunction with significantly (p<0.05) increased left ventricular internal diameter end diastole and end systole, and decreased ejection fraction, and fractional shortening. We found significant (p<0.05) increased expression of inflammatory cytokines TNF- a, IL-6, IL-1a, IL-33 and decreased IL-10 expression. Diabetic mice also exhibited significantly (p<0.05) increased necroptosis marker expression and infiltration of inflammatory monocytes and macrophages. MSC-Exos treated mice showed recovery of diabetes associated pathologies with significantly reduced blood glucose, recovered body weight, increased IL-10 secretion and M2 polarized macrophages in the heart. These mice showed reduced TAK1-pJNK-NFKB inflammation associated expression and improved cardiac function with significantly reduced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis compared to diabetic mice. Treatment with MEF-Exos did not play a significant role in attenuating diabetes-induced cardiomyopathy as these treatment mice presented with cardiac dysfunction and underlying pathologies observed in STZ mice. Conclusion Thus, we conclude that cardiac dysfunction develops in diabetic ApoE-/- mice, arising from inflammation, necroptosis, and adverse tissue remodeling, which is ameliorated by MSC-Exos, a potential therapeutic for diabetes-induced cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic patients are at higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. NT-proBNP levels measurements are useful for the assessment of risk in heart failure patients in emergency condition and give the faster result. Further, it also offers lower cost and unnecessary hospitalization and follow-up cost. The studies have shown that NT-proBNP levels are a direct predictor of outcome risk in diabetic patients with heart failure. The objective of this research was to study the role of NT-proBNP levels to determine the severity of heart failure in diabetic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study 150 patients diagnosed with symptomatic heart failure admitted to the emergency department of a tertiary care center from January 2021 to January 2022 have been included in Saraswati Institute Of Medical Sciences, Hapur, India. N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-Pro-BNP) levels were measured using an automated analyzer ranging between 60 and 3000 pg/ml. According to the European society of cardiology (ESC) guidelines, it has been defined as NT-Pro-BNP level above 125 pg/ml indicates a high possibility of heart failure and NT-Pro-BNP level below 125 pg/ml excludes the high possibility of heart failure. All the patients underwent an echocardiographic study and ejection fraction was calculated and recorded. RESULTS In diabetic patients ejection fraction was significantly lower in diabetic patients: 47.15 ± 8.75% vs. 43.24 ± 9.54%, P = 0.002). We have observed statistically significant lower HDL values (40.10 ± vs. 35.94 mg/dL, P = 0.0004), however, significant higher triglycerides values were found (101.43 ± 41.7 mg/dL vs. 151.37 ± 78.85, P = 0.001). No significant difference was observed in LDL level (97.8 ± 31.23 vs. 92.35 ± 314.2, P ≥ 0.05) and total cholesterol level (161.49 ± 41.38 vs. 159.97 ± 41.12, P ≥ 0.05). CONCLUSION We concluded that the measurement of NT-proBNP in heart failure and diabetic patients could be an economic marker for the evaluation of morbidity and mortality, facilitating better management and follow-up.

Abstract
A significant increase in the worldwide incidence and prevalence of type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) has elevated the need for studies on novel and effective therapeutic strategies. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is an NAD + dependent protein deacetylase with a critical function in the regulation of glucose/lipid metabolism, insulin resistance, inflammation, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial function. SIRT1 is also involved in the regulation of insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells and protecting these cells from inflammation and oxidative stress-mediated tissue damages. In this regard, major SIRT1 activators have been demonstrated to exert a beneficial impact in reversing T2DM-related complications including cardiomyopathy, nephropathy, retinopathy, and neuropathy, hence treating T2DM. Therefore, an accumulating number of recent studies have investigated the efficacy of targeting SIRT1 as a therapeutic strategy in T2DM. In this review we aimed to discuss the current understanding of the physiological and biological roles of SIRT1, then its implication in the pathogenesis of T2DM, and the therapeutic potential of SIRT1 in combating T2DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetic cardiomyopathy is one of the most common complications of diabetes. Escin may significantly inhibit myocardial damage through its NF-κβ inhibitory, antidiabetic, neuroprotective, and potent anti-inflammatory activity. Hence, the study was carried out to evaluate the effect of escin in diabetic cardiomyopathy. METHODS Diabetes induction was done in rats with streptozotocin. After six weeks of induction, diabetic animals were administered with escin (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg) for the next four weeks. RESULTS Escin prevented the progression of abnormalities in the biochemical, hemodynamic parameters and electrocardiogram. Escin also prevented the progression of abnormality in the oxidative stress parameters. The expression of NF-κβ and MCP-1 was significantly reduced with escin treatment. Furthermore, escin also prevented damage to myocardial cells and reduced collagen deposition in the cardiomyocytes. CONCLUSION Escin prevented the progression of cardiomyopathy in diabetic rats. Hence escin can be an alternative option for the management of diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), one of the common complications of diabetes, presents as a specific cardiomyopathy with anomalies in the structure and function of the heart. With the increasing prevalence of diabetes, DCM has a high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Recent studies have found that pyroptosis, as a programmed cell death accompanied by an inflammatory response, exacerbates the growth and genesis of DCM. These studies provide a theoretical basis for exploring the potential treatment of DCM. Therefore, this review aims to summarise the possible mechanisms by which pyroptosis promotes the development of DCM as well as the relevant studies targeting pyroptosis for the possible treatment of DCM, focusing on the molecular mechanisms of NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis, different cellular pyroptosis pathways associated with DCM, the effects of pyroptosis occurring in different cells on DCM, and the relevant drugs targeting NLRP3 inflammasome/pyroptosis for the treatment of DCM. This review might provide a fresh perspective and foundation for the development of therapeutic agents for DCM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a complication of diabetes mellitus that endangers human health. DCM results in cardiac dysfunction, which eventually progresses to heart failure. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), a type of multipotent stem cell, have shown promising therapeutic effects in various cardiovascular diseases and diabetic complications in preclinical studies due to their immunomodulatory and regenerative abilities. However, there is still a lack of evidence to summarize the effectiveness of MSCs in the treatment of DCM. Therefore, a meta-analysis and systematic review are warranted to evaluate the therapeutic potential of MSCs for DCM in preclinical studies. METHODS A comprehensive literature search in English or Chinese was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, web of Science, Cochrane Library, and China National Knowledge Internet from inception to June 30, 2022. The summarized outcomes included echocardiography, morphology, and pathology. Data were independently extracted and analyzed by two authors. The software we adopted was Review Manager5.4.1. This systematic review was written in compliance with PRISMA 2020 and the review protocol was registered on PROSPERO, registration no. CRD42022350032. RESULTS We included 20 studies in our meta-analysis to examine the efficacy of MSCs in the treatment of DCM. The MSC-treated group showed a statistically significant effect on left ventricular ejection fraction (WMD=12.61, 95% CI 4.32 to 20.90, P=0.003) and short axis fractional shortening (WMD=6.84, 95% CI 4.09 to 9.59, P < 0.00001). The overall effects on the ratio of early to late diastolic mitral annular velocity, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, maximum positive pressure development, maximum negative pressure development, left ventricular relaxation time constant, heart weight to body weight ratio, fibrosis area, and arteriole density were analyzed, suggesting that MSCs represent an effective therapy for the treatment of DCM. CONCLUSION Our results suggest a therapeutic role for MSCs in the treatment of DCM, and these results provide support for the use of MSCs in clinical trials of patients with DCM.

Quant Imaging Med Surg 2023; 13:7753-7764. [PMID: 38106271 PMCID: PMC10722058 DOI: 10.21037/qims-23-560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
Background Several studies using two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) have confirmed the presence of left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), but there is a paucity of studies on whether three-dimensional (3D)-STE is superior to 2D-STE. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical value of 3D-STE in assessing subclinical LV systolic dysfunction in prediabetic and diabetic patients with preserved LV ejection fraction (LVEF) and to investigate the independent risk factors for this medical disorder. Methods This study included 40 diabetic patients, 35 prediabetic patients, and 33 healthy volunteers. All participants underwent LV peak systolic strain analysis using 3D- and 2D-STE, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was constructed to determine the clinical diagnostic value of strain parameters for evaluating subclinical LV dysfunction in patients with prediabetes and type 2 DM (T2DM). Regression models were established to analyze independent risk factors for subclinical LV systolic dysfunction in patients with prediabetes and diabetes. Results The results of the 3D-STE-based analysis showed that the global longitudinal strain (GLS) of the control, prediabetic, and diabetic groups were (18.64%±2.43%, 15.21%±1.49%, and 13.49%±2.36%, respectively), global circumferential strain (GCS) was (18.09%±2.37%, 14.62%±1.75%, and 12.95%±2.20%, respectively), global area strain (GAS) was (31.30%±3.88%, 27.51%±3.31%, and 24.80%±3.86%, respectively), and global radial strain (GRS) was (49.18%±5.91%, 39.17%±4.55%, and 35.72%±7.19%, respectively). All 3D-STE global strain parameters gradually decreased from the controls, through the prediabetic group to the diabetic group, and there was statistical significance between the three groups (P<0.001). The area under the curve (AUC) of the 3D-STE global strain parameters (GLS, GCS, GAS, and GRS) were 0.898, 0.831, 0.863, and 0.868, respectively. The AUC of the 2D-STE global strain parameters (GLS and GCS) were 0.867 and 0.636, respectively. Multivariate regression analysis identified increased glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and body mass index (BMI) as independent risk factors for subclinical LV systolic dysfunction. Conclusions Prediabetic and diabetic patients with preserved LVEF are at risk of subclinical LV systolic dysfunction. 3D-STE is a reliable imaging technique for evaluating early damage to LV myocardial mechanics. Early control of blood glucose (Glu) levels and weight can effectively prevent heart failure in the prediabetic and diabetic populations.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease, especially heart failure (HF) is the leading cause of death in patients with diabetes. Individuals with diabetes are prone to a special type of cardiomyopathy called diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), which cannot be explained by heart diseases such as hypertension or coronary artery disease, and can contribute to HF. Unfortunately, the current treatment strategy for diabetes-related cardiovascular complications is mainly to control blood glucose levels; nonetheless, the improvement of cardiac structure and function is not ideal. The transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1), a nonselective cation channel, has been shown to be universally expressed in the cardiovascular system. Increasing evidence has shown that the activation of TRPV1 channel has a potential protective influence on the cardiovascular system. Numerous studies show that activating TRPV1 channels can improve the occurrence and progression of diabetes-related complications, including cardiomyopathy; however, the specific mechanisms and effects are unclear. In this review, we summarize that TRPV1 channel activation plays a protective role in the heart of diabetic models from oxidation/nitrification stress, mitochondrial function, endothelial function, inflammation, and cardiac energy metabolism to inhibit the occurrence and progression of DCM. Therefore, TRPV1 may become a latent target for the prevention and treatment of diabetes-induced cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most common metabolic disease worldwide and a major risk factor for adverse cardiovascular events, while the additive effects of DM on left ventricular (LV) deformation in the restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) cohort remain unclear. Accordingly, we aimed to investigate the additive effects of DM on LV deformation in patients with RCM. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred thirty-six RCM patients without DM [RCM(DM-)], 46 with DM [RCM (DM+)], and 66 age- and sex-matched control subjects who underwent cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) scanning were included. LV function, late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) type, and LV global peak strains (including radial, circumferential, and longitudinal directions) were measured. The determinant of reduced LV global myocardial strain for all RCM patients was assessed using multivariable linear regression analyses. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was performed to illustrate the relationship between DM and decreased LV deformation. RESULTS Compared with the control group, RCM (DM-) and RCM(DM+) patients presented increased LV end-diastolic index and end-systolic volume index and decreased LV ejection fraction. LV GPS in all three directions and longitudinal PDSR progressively declined from the control group to the RCM(DM-) group to the RCM(DM+) group (all p < 0.05). DM was an independent determinant of impaired LV GPS in the radial, circumferential, and longitudinal directions and longitudinal PDSR (β = - 0.217, 0.176, 0.253, and - 0.263, all p < 0.05) in RCM patients. The multiparameter combination, including DM, showed an AUC of 0.81(95% CI 0.75-0.87) to predict decreased LV GLPS and an AUC of 0.69 (95% CI 0.62-0.76) to predict decreased LV longitudinal PDSR. CONCLUSIONS DM may have an additive deleterious effect on LV dysfunction in patients with RCM, especially diastolic dysfunction in RCM patients, indicating the importance of early identification and initiation of treatment of DM in patients with RCM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) may have a paracrine effect on coronary microcirculation and myocardium. However, it is unclear whether EAT is linked to cardiac function and perfusion. PURPOSE To investigate the association of EAT with left ventricular (LV) strain and myocardial perfusion in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION A total of 78 patients with CAD and 20 healthy controls. The patients were further divided into high (n = 39) and low EAT volume (n = 39) groups according to median EAT volume. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE A 1.5 T, balanced steady-state free precession, inversion recovery prepared echo-planar, and segmented-turbo fast low-angle shot (FLASH) phase-sensitive inversion recovery (PSIR) sequences. ASSESSMENT EAT volume was measured by manually tracing the epicardial border and the visceral layer of pericardium on the short-axis cine stacks. LV strain parameters included global radial (GRS), circumferential (GCS), and longitudinal peak strain (GLS). Perfusion indices included upslope, perfusion index, time-to-maximum signal intensity (TTM), and maximum signal intensity (MaxSI). STATISTICAL TESTS One-way analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis rank tests, Chi-squared or Fisher exact tests. Multivariate linear regression analyses. A P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS The parameters of GRS GCS, GLS, upslope, perfusion index, and MaxSI were significantly lower in the patients when compared to the controls. Moreover, the high EAT volume group presented significantly longer TTM values and lower GRS, GCS, GLS, upslope, perfusion index, and MaxSI than the low EAT volume group. Multivariate linear regression analyses demonstrated that EAT was independently associated with GRS, GCS, GLS, upslope, perfusion index, TTM, and MaxSI in patients. EAT and upslope were independently associated with GRS, while EAT and perfusion index were both independently associated with GCS and GLS. DATA CONCLUSION EAT was associated with parameters of LV function and perfusion, and myocardial perfusion was independently associated with LV strain in patients with CAD. EVIDENCE LEVEL 3. TECHNICAL EFFICACY Stage 3.

Abstract
Diabetic Mellitus has been characterized as the most prevalent disease throughout the globe associated with the serious morbidity and mortality of vital organs. Cardiomyopathy is the major leading complication of diabetes and within this, myocardial dysfunction or failure is the leading cause of the emergency hospital admission. The review is aimed to comprehend the perspectives associated with diabetes-induced cardiovascular complications. The data was collected from several electronic databases such as Google Scholar, Science Direct, ACS publication, PubMed, Springer, etc. using the keywords such as diabetes and its associated complication, the prevalence of diabetes, the anatomical and physiological mechanism of diabetes-induced cardiomyopathy, the molecular mechanism of diabetes-induced cardiomyopathy, oxidative stress, and inflammatory stress, etc. The collected scientific data was screened by different experts based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study. This review findings revealed that diabetes is associated with inefficient substrate utilization, inability to increase glucose metabolism and advanced glycation end products within the diabetic heart resulting in mitochondrial uncoupling, glucotoxicity, lipotoxicity, and initially subclinical cardiac dysfunction and finally in overt heart failure. Furthermore, several factors such as hypertension, overexpression of renin angiotensin system, hypertrophic obesity, etc. have been seen as majorly associated with cardiomyopathy. The molecular examination showed biochemical disability and generation of the varieties of free radicals and inflammatory cytokines and becomes are the substantial causes of cardiomyopathy. This review provides a better understanding of the involved pathophysiology and offers an open platform for discussing and targeting therapy in alleviating diabetes-induced early heart failure or cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) can improve cardiac function and cardiovascular outcomes in diabetic cardiomyopathy; however, the beneficial effect of GLP-1 on human diabetic cardiomyocytes (DCMs) and its mechanism have not been fully elucidated. Here, the DCMs model by human-induced pluripotent stem cells-derived cardiomyocytes is developed. Two subtypes of GLP-1, GLP-17-36 and GLP-19-36 , are evaluated for their efficacy on the DCMs model. Diabetogenic condition is sufficient to induce most characteristics of diabetic cardiomyopathy in vitro, such as cardiac hypertrophy, lipid accumulation, impaired calcium transients, and abnormal electrophysiological properties. GLP-17-36 and GLP-19-36 can restore cardiomyocyte hypertrophic phenotype, impaired calcium transient frequency, abnormal action potential amplitude, depolarization, and repolarization velocity. Interestingly, RNA-seq reveals different pathways altered by GLP-17-36 and GLP-19-36 , respectively. Differentially expressed gene analysis reveals that possible targets of GLP-17-36 involve the regulation of mitotic nuclear division and extracellular matrix-receptor interaction, while possible targets of GLP-19-36 involve kinetochore assembly, and the complement and coagulation cascades. This study demonstrates the therapeutic effects of GLP-1 on human DCMs and provides a novel platform to unveil the cellular mechanisms of diabetic cardiomyopathy, shedding light on discovering better targets for novel therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the main killers threatening human health. Many studies have shown that abnormal energy metabolism plays a key role in the occurrence and development of acute and chronic cardiovascular diseases. Regulating cardiac energy metabolism is a frontier topic in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, we are not very clear about the choice of different substrates, the specific mechanism of energy metabolism participating in the course of cardiovascular disease, and how to develop appropriate drugs to regulate energy metabolism to treat cardiovascular disease. Therefore, this paper reviews how energy metabolism participates in cardiovascular pathophysiological processes and potential drugs aimed at interfering energy metabolism.It is expected to provide good suggestions for promoting the clinical prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases from the perspective of energy metabolism.

Exercise Effects on Left Ventricular Remodeling in Patients with Cardiometabolic Risk Factors. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:1742. [PMID: 37629599 PMCID: PMC10456116 DOI: 10.3390/life13081742] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2023] [Revised: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/12/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Left ventricular (LV) remodeling is a dynamic process, which is characterized by changes in ventricular size, shape, and wall thickness, thus altering myocardial geometry and function, and is considered as a negative prognostic factor in patients with heart failure (HF). Hypertension, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and obesity are strongly correlated with the development and the progression of LV remodeling, LV hypertrophy, and LV systolic and/or diastolic dysfunction. Indeed, the beneficial impact of exercise training on primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been well-established. Recent studies have highlighted that exercise training enhances functional capacity, muscle strength and endurance, cardiac function, and cardiac-related biomarkers among patients with established coronary artery disease (CAD) or HF, thus substantially improving their cardiovascular prognosis, survival rates, and need for rehospitalization. Therefore, in this review article, we discuss the evidence of LV remodeling in patients with cardiometabolic risk factors, such as hypertension, T2D, and obesity, and also highlight the current studies evaluating the effect of exercise training on LV remodeling in these patients.

[PMID: 37333454 PMCID: PMC10276614 DOI: 10.1515/med-2023-0711] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 04/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress are considered to be two main drivers of diabetic myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (DM + MIRI). Nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) play central roles in maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis and regulating oxidative stress, but the effects of the Nrf2-Drp1 pathway on DM-MIRI have not been reported. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of the Nrf2-Drp1 pathway in DM + MIRI rats. A rat model of DM + MIRI and H9c2 cardiomyocyte injury were constructed. The therapeutic effect of Nrf2 was assessed by detecting myocardial infarct size, mitochondrial structure, levels of myocardial injury markers and oxidative stress, apoptosis, and Drp1 expression. The results showed that DM + MIRI rats had increased myocardial infarct size and Drp1 expression in myocardial tissue, accompanied by increased mitochondrial fission and oxidative stress. Interestingly, Nrf2 agonist dimethyl fumarate (DMF) could significantly improve cardiac function, mitochondrial fission, and decrease oxidative stress levels and Drp1 expression after ischemia. However, these effects of DMF would be largely counteracted by the Nrf2 inhibitor ML385. Additionally, Nrf2 overexpression significantly suppressed Drp1 expression, apoptosis, and oxidative stress levels in H9c2 cells. Nrf2 attenuates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in DM rats by reducing Drp1-mediated mitochondrial fission and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Studies suggest that the consumption of Tempeh can improve abnormal blood glucose and lipid parameters, although it remains still unclear as to whether Tempeh can improve tissue damage. In our study, db/db obese diabetic mice were given Tempeh 1 (300 mg/kg) and Tempeh 2 (600 mg/kg) for 3 months. The tissue samples collected were stained using different tissue-staining methodologies and were compared with the diabetic control group that was not given any Tempeh. Our results demonstrated that consuming high-dose Tempeh for 1 month could significantly reduce serum glucose and body weight in mice whereas the tissue section of our result could validate that consuming high-dose Tempeh for 3 months effectively improves lipid droplet size and lipid accumulation in the liver, aorta, and kidney of the mice. Moreover, an indication of the recovery of the damaged tissue could be observed in the heart and pancreatic tissue when high dosage of Tempeh was given as a treatment. Thus, it can be concluded that continuous consumption of Tempeh as a treatment could improve both blood glucose and body weight of diabetic mice while also improving lipid accumulation and tissue damage.

Adenosine monophosphate deaminase in the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria interface promotes mitochondrial Ca 2+ overload in type 2 diabetes rat hearts. J Diabetes Investig 2023; 14:560-569. [PMID: 36815317 PMCID: PMC10034956 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.13982] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2022] [Revised: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION We previously showed that upregulation of myocardial adenosine monophosphate deaminase (AMPD) is associated with pressure overload-induced diastolic dysfunction in type 2 diabetes hearts. Here, we examined involvement of AMPD localized in the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria interface in mitochondrial Ca2+ overload and its pathological significance. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used type 2 diabetes Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty rats (OLETF) and non-diabetes Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka Fatty rats (LETO) as well as AMPD3-overexpressing H9c2 cells and human embryonic kidney 293 cells. RESULTS OLETF, but not LETO, showed diastolic dysfunction under the condition of phenylephrine-induced pressure overload. The levels of 90-kDa AMPD3 in outer mitochondrial membranes/endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM) fractions were significantly higher in OLETF than in LETO. The area of the MAM quantified by electron microscopic analysis was 57% larger, mitochondrial Ca2+ level under the condition of pressure overload was 47% higher and Ca2+ retention capacity in MAM-containing crude mitochondria isolated before the pressure overloading was 21% lower in OLETF than in LETO (all P-values <0.05). Transfection of FLAG-AMPD3 in cells resulted in significant enlargement of the MAM area, and impairment in pyruvate/malate-driven adenosine triphosphate-stimulated and uncoupler-stimulated mitochondrial respiration compared with those in control cells. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that 90-kDa AMPD3 localized in the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria interface promotes formation of the MAM, inducing mitochondrial Ca2+ overload and dysfunction in type 2 diabetes hearts.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide is the main metabolite effective in redox regulation and it is considered an insulinomimetic agent, with insulin signalling being essential for normal mitochondrial function in cardiomyocytes. Therefore, the aim of this work was to deeply analyse the heart mitochondrial H2O2 metabolism, in the early stage of type 1 diabetes. Diabetes was induced by Streptozotocin (STZ, single dose, 60 mg × kg-1, ip.) in male Wistar rats and the animals were sacrificed 10 days after injection. Mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP production, using malate-glutamate as substrates, in the heart of diabetic animals were like the ones observed in control group. Mn-SOD activity was lower (15%) in the heart of diabetic rats even though its expression was increased (29%). The increment in heart mitochondrial H2O2 production (117%) in diabetic animals was accompanied by an enhancement in the activities and expressions of glutathione peroxidase (26% and 42%) and of catalase (200% and 133%), with no changes in the peroxiredoxin activity, leading to [H2O2]ss ∼40 nM. Heart mitochondrial lipid peroxidation and protein nitration were higher in STZ-injected animals (45% and 42%) than in control group. The mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP production preservation suggest the absence of irreversible damage at this early stage of diabetes 1. The increase in mitochondrial [H2O2]ss above the physiological range, but still below supraphysiological concentration (∼100 nM) seems to be part of the adaptive response triggered in cardiomyocytes due to the absence of insulin. The signs of mitochondrial dysfunction observed in this very early stage of diabetes are consistent with the mitochondrial entity called ″complex I syndrome″.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) is considered a major risk factor for myocardial infarction (MI), and MI patients with DM have a poor prognosis. Accordingly, we aimed to investigate the additive effects of DM on LV deformation in patients after acute MI. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred thirteen MI patients without DM [MI (DM-)], 95 with DM [MI (DM+)] and 71 control subjects who underwent CMRscanning were included. LV function, infarct size and LV global peak strains in the radial, circumferential and longitudinal directions were measured. MI (DM+) patients were divided into two subgroups based on the HbA1c level (< 7.0% and ≥ 7.0%). The determinants of reduced LV global myocardial strain for all MI patients and MI (DM+) patients were assessed using multivariable linear regression analyses. RESULTS Compared with control subjects, both MI (DM-) and MI (DM+) patients presented higher LV end-diastolic and end-systolic volume index and lower LV ejection fraction. LV global peak strains progressively declined from the control group to the MI(DM-) group to the MI(DM+) group (all p < 0.05). Subgroup analysis showed that LV global radial PS and longitudinal PS were worse in MI(MD+) patients with poor glycemic control than in those with good glycemic control (all p < 0.05). DM was an independent determinant of impaired LV global peak strain in radial, circumferential and longitudinal directions in patients after acute MI (β = - 0.166, 0.164 and 0.262, both p < 0.05). The HbA1c level was independently associated with a decreased LV global radial PS (β = - 0.209, p = 0.025) and longitudinal PS (β = 0.221, p = 0.010) in MI (DM+) patients. CONCLUSIONS DM has an additive deleterious effect on LV function and deformation in patients after acute MI, and HbA1c was independently associated with impaired LV myocardial strain.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a serious cardiovascular complication and the leading cause of death in diabetic patients. Patients typically do not experience any symptoms and have normal systolic and diastolic cardiac functions in the early stages of DCM. Because the majority of cardiac tissue has already been destroyed by the time DCM is detected, research must be conducted on biomarkers for early DCM, early diagnosis of DCM patients, and early symptomatic management to minimize mortality rates among DCM patients. Most of the existing implemented clinical markers are not very specific for DCM, especially in the early stages of DCM. Recent studies have shown that a number of new novel markers, such as galactin-3 (Gal-3), adiponectin (APN), and irisin, have significant changes in the clinical course of the various stages of DCM, suggesting that we may have a positive effect on the identification of DCM. As a summary of the current state of knowledge regarding DCM biomarkers, this review aims to inspire new ideas for identifying clinical markers and related pathophysiologic mechanisms that could be used in the early diagnosis and treatment of DCM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) individuals easily develop three-vessel disease (3VD) coronary artery disease (CAD), there is very little information available about their left ventricle (LV) functions. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the LV function using two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2-D STE) in T2DM patients with 3VD. METHODS One hundred and three consecutive patients with confirmed 3VD CAD were enrolled and divided into two groups, while 53 patients with DM and 50 patients without. The control group was composed of 30 age- and sex-matched healthy individuals. All patients underwent 2-D STE and standard echocardiograms. The durations of DM and the level of HbA1c were also recorded. RESULT Between the 3VD-DM and 3VD-non-DM groups, normal echocardiography did not reveal any appreciable differences. However, patients with 3VD-DM had significantly lower global longitudinal strain (GLS) than those with 3VD-non-DM (15.87 ± 2.51 vs.17.56 ± 2.72, p < .05) by 2-D STE strain measurement. Besides, patients whose duration of DM excess 5 years showed significant lower GLS than those with less than 5 years duration (14.25 ± 2.31 vs. 16.65 ± 1.96, p = .007). However, there was no difference in GLS between the 3VD-DM patients with HbA1c ≥ 7% and HbA1c < 7%. CONCLUSIONS Compared to patients with 3VD alone, those with 3VD-DM have a lower cardiac function. In 3VD-DM patients, the duration of DM is a significant factor that contributes to cardiac function deterioration, whereas, the glucose control state has limited influence.

Abstract
Systemic branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism is dysregulated in cardiometabolic diseases. We previously demonstrated that upregulated AMP deaminase 3 (AMPD3) impairs cardiac energetics in a rat model of obese type 2 diabetes, Otsuka Long-Evans-Tokushima fatty (OLETF). Here, we hypothesized that the cardiac BCAA levels and the activity of branched-chain α-keto acid dehydrogenase (BCKDH), a rate-limiting enzyme in BCAA metabolism, are altered by type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and that upregulated AMPD3 expression is involved in the alteration. Performing proteomic analysis combined with immunoblotting, we discovered that BCKDH localizes not only to mitochondria but also to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it interacts with AMPD3. Knocking down AMPD3 in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) increased BCKDH activity, suggesting that AMPD3 negatively regulates BCKDH. Compared with control rats (Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka [LETO] rats), OLETF rats exhibited 49% higher cardiac BCAA levels and 49% lower BCKDH activity. In the cardiac ER of the OLETF rats, BCKDH-E1α subunit expression was downregulated, while AMPD3 expression was upregulated, resulting in an 80% lower AMPD3-E1α interaction compared to LETO rats. Knocking down E1α expression in NRCMs upregulated AMPD3 expression and recapitulated the imbalanced AMPD3-BCKDH expressions observed in OLETF rat hearts. E1α knockdown in NRCMs inhibited glucose oxidation in response to insulin, palmitate oxidation, and lipid droplet biogenesis under oleate loading. Collectively, these data revealed previously unrecognized extramitochondrial localization of BCKDH in the heart and its reciprocal regulation with AMPD3 and imbalanced AMPD3-BCKDH interactions in OLETF. Downregulation of BCKDH in cardiomyocytes induced profound metabolic changes that are observed in OLETF hearts, providing insight into mechanisms contributing to the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy.

ALDH2 attenuates ischemia and reperfusion injury through regulation of mitochondrial fusion and fission by PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in diabetic cardiomyopathy. Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 195:219-230. [PMID: 36587924 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2022.12.097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 12/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
The function of mitochondrial fusion and fission is one of the important factors causing ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in diabetic myocardium. Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is abundantly expressed in heart, which involved in the regulation of cellular energy metabolism and stress response. However, the mechanism of ALDH2 regulating mitochondrial fusion and fission in diabetic myocardial I/R injury has not been elucidated. In the present study, we found that the expression of ALDH2 was downregulated in rat diabetic myocardial I/R model. Functionally, the activation of ALDH2 resulted in the improvement of cardiac hemodynamic parameters and myocardial injury, which were abolished by the treatment of Daidzin, a specific inhibitor of ALDH2. In H9C2 cardiomyocyte hypoxia-reoxygenation model, ALDH2 regulated the dynamic balance of mitochondrial fusion and fission and maintained mitochondrial morphology stability. Meanwhile, ALDH2 reduced mitochondrial ROS levels, and apoptotic protein expression in cardiomyocytes, which was associated with the upregulation of phosphorylation (p-PI3KTyr458, p-AKTSer473, p-mTOR). Moreover, ALDH2 suppressed the mitoPTP opening through reducing 4-HNE. Therefore, our results demonstrated that ALDH2 alleviated the ischemia and reperfusion injury in diabetic cardiomyopathy through inhibition of mitoPTP opening and activation of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

Am Heart J 2023; 256:25-36.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) is a specific form of heart muscle disease that may result in substantial morbidity and mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Hyperactivation of the polyol pathway is one of the primary mechanisms in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications, including development of DbCM. There is an unmet need for therapies targeting the underlying metabolic abnormalities that drive this form of Stage B heart failure (HF). METHODS Aldose reductase (AR) catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in the polyol pathway, and AR inhibition has been shown to reduce diabetic complications, including DbCM in animal models and in patients with DbCM. Previous AR inhibitors (ARIs) were limited by poor specificity resulting in unacceptable tolerability and safety profile. AT-001 is a novel investigational highly specific ARI with higher binding affinity and greater selectivity than previously studied ARIs. ARISE-HF (NCT04083339) is an ongoing Phase 3 randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind, global clinical study to investigate the efficacy of AT-001 (1000 mg twice daily [BID] and 1500 mg BID) in 675 T2DM patients with DbCM at high risk of progression to overt HF. ARISE-HF assesses the ability of AT-001 to improve or prevent decline in exercise capacity as measured by functional capacity (changes in peak oxygen uptake [peak VO2]) over 15 (and possibly 27) months of treatment. Additional endpoints include percentage of patients progressing to overt HF, health status metrics, echocardiographic measurements, and changes in cardiacbiomarkers. RESULTS The ARISE-HF Trial is fully enrolled. CONCLUSIONS This report describes the rationale and study design of ARISE-HF.

Role of Echocardiography in Diabetic Cardiomyopathy: From Mechanisms to Clinical Practice. J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2023; 10:jcdd10020046.

Abstract
It has been well established that diabetes mellitus (DM) is considered as a core risk factor for the development of cardiovascular diseases. However, what is less appreciated is the fact that DM may affect cardiac function irrespective of cardiac pathologies to which it contributes, such as coronary artery disease and hypertension. Although echocardiography provides accurate and reproducible diagnostic and prognostic data in patients with DM, its use in these patients is still underappreciated, resulting in progression of DM-related heart failure in many patients. Hence, in the present review, we aimed to discuss the role of echocardiography in the contemporary management of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), as well as the role of emerging echocardiographic techniques, which may contribute to earlier diagnosis and more appropriate management of this complication of DM. In order to improve outcomes, focus must be placed on early diagnosis of this condition using a combination of echocardiography and emerging biomarkers, but perhaps the more important thing is to change perspective when it comes to the clinical importance of DCM.

Feasibility study of automated cardiac motion quantification to assess left ventricular function in type 2 diabetes. Sci Rep 2023; 13:1101.

Abstract
The global incidence of diabetes and related complications is gradually increasing, with cardiovascular complications being the leading cause of death in the diabetic population. The purpose of this study was to examine left ventricular function in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and conduct a feasibility analysis using automated cardiac motion quantification (aCMQ) approach. A total of 150 T2D patients with a history of diabetes mellitus dating back more than 10 years were chosen, and we treated 87 patients with T2D that had been present for less than 15 years as group I, 63 patients with T2D that had been present for more than 15 years as group II, and 50 healthy volunteers as the control group. From the three groups, clinical information, conventional ultrasonography parameters, and mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE) parameters were gathered. aCMQ technique was used to collect longitudinal strain and circumferential strain in the left ventricle. Tissue motion mitral annular displacement technique (TMAD) in aCMQ was used to collect parameters related to TMAD, and cardiac motion quantification (CMQ) was used to collect two-dimensional global longitudinal strain (2D-GLS) to compare the degree of difference between the aforementioned three groups. The differences between longitudinal strain groups in aCMQ were all statistically significant and gradually decreased with increasing disease duration. Most TMAD parameters were lower in groups I and II than in the control group, and TMAD parameters gradually decreased with increasing disease duration. The results of the LV global longitudinal strain and 2D-GLS using Bland-Altman analyses showed high agreement between and within groups, Pearson correlation analysis showed a significant positive correlation (r = 0.18, P < 0.05), and the AUC of ROC curves predicting the value of left ventricular function in patients with T2D was 0.723 and 0.628, respectively. With significant positive correlations between MAPSE, s', and the majority of the TAMD parameters (P < 0.05), TAMD, MAPSE, and s' demonstrated high inter- and intra-group agreement using Bland-Altman analyses, and the three had predictive value in assessing left ventricular function in T2D patients by ROC curve. Reduced longitudinal strain and reduced mitral annular displacement were seen in patients with different disease stages of T2D, so the application of aCMQ and TAMD was effective in detecting altered left ventricular function in patients with T2D. aCMQ had higher value in predicting left ventricular function in patients with T2D compared to CMQ for overall longitudinal strain, and the software performed the depiction automatically, reducing manual errors. MAPSE parameters and s ' can replace the TMAD technique for assessing mitral annular motion and was simpler to perform, saving operational time.

Abstract
To evaluate variations in pre-contrast (preT1) and post-contrast (postT1) myocardial T1 values and extracellular volume fraction (ECV) according to left ventricular (LV) segments and to find correlations between them and cardiovascular risk factors. The 233 asymptomatic subjects (210 men, 23 women; aged 54.1 ± 6.0 years) underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with preT1 and postT1 mapping on a 1.5-T scanner. T1 values and ECVs were evaluated according to LV segments, age, sex, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Based on the presence of hypertension (HTN) and diabetes mellitus (DM), subjects were subdivided into the control, HTN, DM, and HTN and DM (HTN-DM) groups. T1 values and ECV showed significant differences between septal and lateral segments at the mid-ventricular and basal levels (p ≤ 0.003). In subgroup analysis, the HTN-DM group showed a significantly higher ECV (0.260 ± 0.023) than the control (0.240 ± 0.021, p = 0.011) and HTN (0.241 ± 0.024, p = 0.041) groups. Overall postT1 and ECV of the LV had significant correlation with eGFR (r = 0.19, p = 0.038 for postT1; r = − 0.23, p = 0.011 for ECV). Septal segments show higher preT1 and ECV but lower postT1 than lateral segments at the mid-ventricular and basal levels. ECV is significantly affected by HTN, DM, and eGFR, even in asymptomatic subjects.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a leading cause of heart failure in diabetes. At the cellular level, diabetic cardiomyopathy leads to altered mitochondrial energy metabolism and cardiomyocyte ultrastructure. We combined electron microscopy (EM) and computational modelling to understand the impact of diabetes-induced ultrastructural changes on cardiac bioenergetics. We collected transverse micrographs of multiple control and type I diabetic rat cardiomyocytes using EM. Micrographs were converted to finite-element meshes, and bioenergetics was simulated over them using a biophysical model. The simulations also incorporated depressed mitochondrial capacity for oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and creatine kinase (CK) reactions to simulate diabetes-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Analysis of micrographs revealed a 14% decline in mitochondrial area fraction in diabetic cardiomyocytes, and an irregular arrangement of mitochondria and myofibrils. Simulations predicted that this irregular arrangement, coupled with the depressed activity of mitochondrial CK enzymes, leads to large spatial variation in adenosine diphosphate (ADP)/adenosine triphosphate (ATP) ratio profile of diabetic cardiomyocytes. However, when spatially averaged, myofibrillar ADP/ATP ratios of a cardiomyocyte do not change with diabetes. Instead, average concentration of inorganic phosphate rises by 40% owing to lower mitochondrial area fraction and dysfunction in OXPHOS. These simulations indicate that a disorganized cellular ultrastructure negatively impacts metabolite transport in diabetic cardiomyopathy. This article is part of the theme issue ‘The cardiomyocyte: new revelations on the interplay between architecture and function in growth, health, and disease’.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Previous studies reported that there was right ventricular (RV) systolic dysfunction in patients with hypertension. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on RV systolic dysfunction and interventricular interactions using cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking (CMR-FT) in patients with essential hypertension.
Methods and methods
Eighty-five hypertensive patients without T2DM [HTN(T2DM −)], 58 patients with T2DM [HTN(T2DM +)] and 49 normal controls were included in this study. The biventricular global radial, circumferential and longitudinal peak strains (GRS, GCS, GLS, respectively) and RV regional strains at the basal-, mid- and apical-cavity, were calculated with CMR-FT and compared among controls and different patient groups. Backward stepwise multivariable linear regression analyses were used to determine the effects of T2DM and left ventricular (LV) strains on RV strains.
Results
The biventricular GLS and RV apical longitudinal strain deteriorated significantly from controls, through HTN(T2DM-), to HTN(T2DM +) groups. RV middle longitudinal strain in patient groups were significantly reduced, and LV GRS and GCS and RV basal longitudinal strain were decreased in HTN(T2DM +) but preserved in HTN(T2DM-) group. Multivariable regression analyses adjusted for covariates demonstrated that T2DM was independently associated with LV strains (LV GRS: β = − 4.278, p = 0.004, model R2 = 0.285; GCS: β = 1.498, p = 0.006, model R2 = 0.363; GLS: β = 1.133, p = 0.007, model R2 = 0.372) and RV GLS (β = 1.454, p = 0.003, model R2 = 0.142) in hypertension. When T2DM and LV GLS were included in the multiple regression analysis, both T2DM and LV GLS (β = 0.977 and 0.362, p = 0.039 and < 0.001, model R2 = 0.224) were independently associated with RV GLS.
Conclusions
T2DM exacerbates RV systolic dysfunction in patients with hypertension, which may be associated with superimposed LV dysfunction by coexisting T2DM and suggests adverse interventricular interactions.

Abstract
The diabetic population has been increasing in the past decades and diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), a pathology that is defined by the presence of cardiac remodeling and dysfunction without conventional cardiac risk factors such as hypertension and coronary heart diseases, would eventually lead to fatal heart failure in the absence of effective treatment. Impaired insulin signaling, commonly known as insulin resistance, plays an important role in the development of DCM. A family of integral membrane proteins named caveolins (mainly caveolin-1 and caveolin-3 in the myocardium) and a protein hormone adiponectin (APN) have all been shown to be important for maintaining normal insulin signaling. Abnormalities in caveolins and APN have respectively been demonstrated to cause DCM. This review aims to summarize recent research findings of the roles and mechanisms of caveolins and APN in the development of DCM, and also explore the possible interplay between caveolins and APN.

Hydrogen Sulfide Regulates SERCA2a Ubiquitylation via Muscle RING Finger-1 S-Sulfhydration to Affect Cardiac Contractility in db/db Mice. Cells 2022; 11:cells11213465. [DOI: 10.3390/cells11213465] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2022] [Revised: 10/27/2022] [Accepted: 10/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), as a gasotransmitter, is involved in various pathophysiological processes. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a major complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), which leads to structural and functional abnormalities of the myocardium and eventually causes heart failure (HF). Systolic and diastolic dysfunction are fundamental features of heart failure. SERCA2a, as a key enzyme for calcium transport in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), affects the process of myocardial relaxation and contraction. H2S can protect the cardiac function against diabetic hearts, however, its mechanisms are unclear. This study found that exogenous H2S affects cellular calcium transport by regulating the H2S/MuRF1/SERCA2a/cardiac contractile pathway. Our results showed that, compared with the db/db mice, exogenous H2S restored the protein expression levels of CSE and SERCA2a, and the activity of SERCA2a, while reducing cytosolic calcium concentrations and MuRF1 expression. We demonstrated that MuRF1 could interact with SERCA2a via co-immunoprecipitation. Using LC-MS/MS protein ubiquitylation analysis, we identified 147 proteins with increased ubiquitination levels, including SERCA2a, in the cardiac tissues of the db/db mice compared with NaHS-treated db/db mice. Our studies further revealed that NaHS administration modified MuRF1 S-sulfhydration and enhanced the activity and expression of SERCA2a. Under hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia, overexpression of the MuRF1-Cys44 mutant plasmid reduced the S-sulfhydration level of MuRF1 and decreased the ubiquitination level of SERCA2a and the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. These findings suggested that H2S modulates SERCA2a ubiquitination through MuRF1 S-sulfhydration of Cys44 to prevent decreased myocardial contractility due to increased cytosolic calcium.

Gaseous signal molecule SO 2 regulates autophagy through PI3K/AKT pathway inhibits cardiomyocyte apoptosis and improves myocardial fibrosis in rats with type II diabetes. THE KOREAN JOURNAL OF PHYSIOLOGY & PHARMACOLOGY : OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSIOLOGICAL SOCIETY AND THE KOREAN SOCIETY OF PHARMACOLOGY 2022; 26:541-556.

Abstract
Myocardial fibrosis is a key link in the occurrence and development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Its etiology is complex, and the effect of drugs is not good. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis is an important cause of myocardial fibrosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of gaseous signal molecule sulfur dioxide (SO2) on diabetic myocardial fibrosis and its internal regulatory mechanism. Masson and TUNEL staining, Western-blot, transmission electron microscopy, RT-qPCR, immunofluorescence staining, and flow cytometry were used in the study, and the interstitial collagen deposition, autophagy, apoptosis, and changes in phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathways were evaluated from in vivo and in vitro experiments. The results showed that diabetic myocardial fibrosis was accompanied by cardiomyocyte apoptosis and down-regulation of endogenous SO2-producing enzyme aspartate aminotransferase (AAT)1/2. However, exogenous SO2 donors could up-regulate AAT1/2, reduce apoptosis of cardiomyocytes induced by diabetic rats or high glucose, inhibit phosphorylation of PI3K/AKT protein, up-regulate autophagy, and reduce interstitial collagen deposition. In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that the gaseous signal molecule SO2 can inhibit the PI3K/AKT pathway to promote cytoprotective autophagy and inhibit cardiomyocyte apoptosis to improve myocardial fibrosis in diabetic rats. The results of this study are expected to provide new targets and intervention strategies for the prevention and treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH 4) Supplementation Prevents the Cardiorenal Effects of Diabetes in Mice by Reducing Oxidative Stress, Inflammation and Fibrosis. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10102479. [PMID: 36289741 PMCID: PMC9599239 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10102479] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2022] [Revised: 09/04/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The effects of diabetes on the cardiovascular system as well as in the kidney are profound, which include hypertrophy and fibrosis. Diabetes also induces oxidative stress, at least in part due to the uncoupling of nitric oxide synthase (NOS); this is a shift in NO production toward superoxide production due to reduced levels of the NOS cofactor tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). With this in mind, we tested the hypothesis that BH4 supplementation may prevent the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy and nephropathy. Methods: Diabetes was induced in Balb/c mice with streptozotocin. Then, diabetic mice were divided into two groups: one group provided with BH4 (sapropterin) in drinking water (daily doses of 15 mg/kg/day, during eight weeks) and the other that received only water. A third group of normoglycemic mice that received only water were used as the control. Results: Cardiac levels of BH4 were increased in mice treated with BH4 (p = 0.0019). Diabetes induced cardiac hypertrophy, which was prevented in the group that received BH4 (p < 0.05). In addition, hypertrophy was evaluated as cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area. This was reduced in diabetic mice that received BH4 (p = 0.0012). Diabetes induced cardiac interstitial fibrosis that was reduced in mice that received BH4 treatment (p < 0.05). We also evaluated in the kidney the impact of BH4 treatment on glomerular morphology. Diabetes induced glomerular hypertrophy compared with normoglycemic mice and was prevented by BH4 treatment. In addition, diabetic mice presented glomerular fibrosis, which was prevented in mice that received BH4. Conclusions: These results suggest that chronic treatment with BH4 in mice ameliorates the cardiorenal effects of diabetes,, probably by restoring the nitroso−redox balance. This offers a possible new alternative to explore a BH4-based treatment for the organ damage caused by diabetes.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a major deteriorating disease of the myocardium due to weak myocardial muscles. As such, the heart is unable to pump blood efficiently around the body to meet its constant demand. HF is a major global health problem with more than 7 million deaths annually worldwide, with some patients dying suddenly due to sudden cardiac death (SCD). There are several risk factors which are associated with HF and SCD which can negatively affect the heart synergistically. One major risk factor is diabetes mellitus (DM) which can cause an elevation in blood glucose level or hyperglycaemia (HG) which, in turn, has an insulting effect on the myocardium. This review attempted to explain the subcellular, cellular and molecular mechanisms and to a lesser extent, the genetic factors associated with the development of diabetes- induced cardiomyopathy due to the HG which can subsequently lead to chronic heart failure (CHF) and SCD. The study first explained the structure and function of the myocardium and then focussed mainly on the excitation-contraction coupling (ECC) processes highlighting the defects of calcium transporting (SERCA, NCX, RyR and connexin) and contractile regulatory (myosin, actin, titin and troponin) proteins. The study also highlighted new therapies and those under development, as well as preventative strategies to either treat or prevent diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). It is postulated that prevention is better than cure.

Abstract
Metabolic cardiomyopathy is a significant global financial and health challenge; however, pathophysiological mechanisms governing this entity remain poorly understood. Among the main features of metabolic cardiomyopathy, the changes to cellular lipid metabolism have been studied and targeted for the discovery of novel treatment strategies obtaining contrasting results. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus (GA) carry out protein modification, sorting, and secretion activities that are more commonly studied from the perspective of protein quality control; however, they also drive the maintenance of lipid homeostasis. In response to metabolic stress, ER and GA regulate the expression of genes involved in cardiac lipid biogenesis and participate in lipid droplet formation and degradation. Due to the varied roles these organelles play, this review will focus on recapitulating the alterations and crosstalk between ER, GA, and lipid metabolism in cardiac metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
Objective To review the literature related to diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), and investigate research hotspots and development trends of this field in the relevant studies based on CiteSpace software of text mining and visualization in scientific literature. Methods The relevant literature from the last 20 years was retrieved from the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection database. After manual selection, each document record includes title, authors, year, organization, abstract, keywords, citation, descriptors, and identifiers. We imported the downloaded data into CiteSpace V (version 5.8.R2) to draw the knowledge map and conduct cooperative network analysis, cluster analysis, burst keyword analysis, and co-citation analysis. Results After manual screening, there were 3,547 relevant pieces of literature published in the last 18 years (from 2004 to 2021), including 2,935 articles and reviews, which contained 15,533 references, and the number was increasing year by year. The publications of DCM were dedicated by 778 authors of 512 institutions in 116 countries. The People's Republic of China dominated this field (1,117), followed by the USA (768) and Canada (176). In general, most articles were published with a focus on “oxidative stress,” “heart failure,” “diabetic cardiomyopathy,” “dysfunction,” “cardiomyopathy,” “expression,” “heart,” “mechanism,” and “insulin resistance.” Then, 10 main clusters were generated with a modularity Q of 0.6442 and a weighted mean silhouette of 0.8325 by the log-likelihood ratio (LLR) algorithm, including #0 heart failure, #1 perfused heart, #2 metabolic disease, #3 protective effect, #4 diabetic patient, #5 cardiac fibrosis, #6 vascular complication, #7 mitochondrial dynamics, #8 sarcoplasmic reticulum, and #9 zinc supplementation. The top five references with the strongest citation bursts include “Boudina and Abel”, “Jia et al.”, “Fang et al.”, “Poornima et al.”, and “Aneja et al.”. Conclusion The global field of DCM has expanded in the last 20 years. The People's Republic of China contributes the most. However, there is little cooperation among authors and institutions. Overall, this bibliometric study identified the hotspots in DCM research, including “stress state,” “energy metabolism,” “autophagy,” “apoptosis,” “inflammation,” “fibrosis,” “PPAR,” etc. Thus, further research focuses on these topics that may be more helpful to identify, prevent DCM and improve prophylaxis strategies to bring benefit to patients in the near future.

Abstract
Objective To assess the prevalence of low-flow state (LFS) with left ventricular (LV) stroke volume index of less than 35 mL/m2 and the demographics, clinical and echocardiographic characteristics associated with LV remodeling and function in a Hispanic/Latino population. Participants and Methods The study included 1346 asymptomatic participants from the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos with normal LV ejection fraction (≥55%) and no valvular heart disease. LV volume, mass and left atrial volume, LV ejection fraction, global longitudinal strain, and myocardial contraction fraction were measured by echocardiography. The participants were divided into LFS or normal flow state (NFS: stroke volume index ≥35 mL/m2). Demographics, clinical and echocardiographic characteristics, and measures of LV remodeling and function were compared between the LFS and NFS groups. Results The prevalence of LFS was 41%. In comparison with NFS, the LFS had lower LV mass index (77.2±0.96 g/m2 vs 84.6±0.86 g/m2; P<.001), left atrial volume index (20.6±0.35 mL/m2 vs 23.5±0.37 mL/m2; P<.001), global longitudinal strain (−16.8±0.16% vs −17.7±0.17%; P<.001), and myocardial contraction fraction (43.3±0.63% vs 55.7±0.64%; P<.001). There was no significant difference in the relative wall thickness (LFS: 0.40±0.004 vs NFS: 0.40±0.005; P=.57). The LFS group had significantly higher hemoglobin A1c (6.18±0.07% vs 5.97±0.04%; P=.01) than the NFS group. Conclusion A high prevalence of LFS associated with echocardiographic characteristics reflecting unfavorable LV remodeling and function was observed in a Hispanic/Latino population. Further studies of the prognostic significance of LFS in a large multiethnic population are warranted.

Abstract
One of the most prevalent cardiovascular problems linked with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). DCM is associated with myocardial oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, suppressed autophagy, extracellular matrix remodeling, and fibrosis. The current study aims to investigate the protective effect of sodium-glucose transport 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) dapagliflozin and/or exercise on DCM. Thirty adult male Sprague Dawley rats are used. T2DM is induced by a 6-week high-fat diet (HFD) followed by a single intraperitoneal (IP) injection of 35 mg/kg streptozotocin (STZ). Rats are divided into five groups, control, diabetic (DM), DM + swimming, DM + dapagliflozin, and DM + dapagliflozin and swimming. Serum glucose, insulin, insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), and cardiac enzymes (CK-MB and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) are measured. Heart specimens are used for evaluation of cellular oxidative stress markers malondialdehyde (MDA), antioxidant enzymes, glutathione (GSH), and catalase (CAT), as well as mRNA expression of TGF-β, MMP9, IL-1β, and TNF-α. Stained sections with haematoxylin and eosin (H & E) and Masson trichrome are used for histopathological evaluation and detection of fibrosis, respectively. Immunohistochemical staining for apoptosis (caspase-3), and autophagy (LC3) are also carried out. The combinations of SGLT2i and exercise exhibited the most significant cardioprotective effect. It improved diabetic-induced histopathological alterations in the myocardium and attenuated the elevation of serum blood glucose, CK-MB, LDH, myocardial MDA, and mRNA expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, TGF-β, MMP9, and the immune expression of caspase-3. Moreover, this combination increased the serum insulin, myocardial antioxidants GSH and CAT, and increase the immune expression of the LC-3. In conclusion, a combination of SGLT2i and exercise exerted a better antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antifibrotic effect in DCM. Moreover, the combination enhances the autophagic capacity of the heart.
