Insulin Treatment Does Not Prevent EARLY Autonomic Cardiovascular and Diastolic Dysfunctions in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2024; 17:577. [PMID: 38794147 PMCID: PMC11124310 DOI: 10.3390/ph17050577] [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: 02/23/2024] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Recent studies have found increased cardiovascular mortality risk in patients with type 1 diabetes when compared to normoglycemic people, even when they were kept under good glycemic control. However, the mechanisms underlying this condition have yet to be fully understood. Using streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats, we evaluated the effects of insulin replacement therapy on cardiac, autonomic, inflammatory, and oxidative stress parameters. Daily treatment with insulin administrated subcutaneously in the STZ-diabetic rats showed a reduction in hyperglycemia (>250 mg/dL) to normalized values. The insulin treatment was effective in preventing alterations in cardiac morphometry and systolic function but had no impact on diastolic function. Also, the treatment was not able to prevent the impairment of baroreflex-tachycardic response and systolic arterial pressure variability (SAP-V). A correlation was found between improvement of these autonomic parameters and higher levels of IL-10 and lower levels of oxidized glutathione. Our findings show that insulin treatment was not able to prevent diastolic, baroreflex, and SAP-V dysfunction, suggesting an outstanding cardiovascular risk, even after obtaining a good glycemic control in STZ-induced diabetic rats. This study shed light on a relatively large population of diabetic patients in need of other therapies to be used in combination with insulin treatment and thus more effectively manage cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
The nitric oxide synthases (NOS; EC 1.14.13.39) use L-arginine as a substrate to produce nitric oxide (NO) as a by-product in the tissue microenvironment. NOS1 represents the predominant NO-producing enzyme highly enriched in the brain and known to mediate multiple functions, ranging from learning and memory development to maintaining synaptic plasticity and neuronal development, Alzheimer's disease (AD), psychiatric disorders and behavioral deficits. However, accumulating evidence indicate both canonical and non-canonical roles of NOS1-derived NO in several other tissues and chronic diseases. A better understanding of NOS1-derived NO signaling, and identification and characterization of NO-metabolites in non-neuronal tissues could become useful in diagnosis and prognosis of diseases associated with NOS1 expression. Continued investigation on the roles of NOS1, therefore, will synthesize new knowledge and aid in the discovery of small molecules which could be used to titrate the activities of NOS1-derived NO signaling and NO-metabolites. Here, we address the significance of NOS1 and its byproduct NO in modifying pathophysiological events, which could be beneficial in understanding both the disease mechanisms and therapeutics.

Abstract
Heart failure and cardiovascular disorders represent the leading cause of death in diabetic patients. Here we present a systematic review of the main mechanisms underlying the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. We also provide an excursus on the relative contribution of cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial and smooth muscle cells to the pathophysiology of heart failure in diabetes. After having described the preclinical tools currently available to dissect the mechanisms of this complex disease, we conclude with a section on the most recent updates of the literature on clinical management.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic, endocrine disorder that effects millions of people worldwide. Cardiovascular complications are the major cause of diabetes-related morbidity and mortality. Cardiac β1- and β2-adrenoceptor (AR) stimulation mediates positive inotropy and chronotropy, whereas β3-AR mediates negative inotropic effect. Changes in β-AR responsiveness are thought to be an important factor that contributes to the diabetic cardiac dysfunction. Diabetes related changes in β-AR expression, signaling, and β-AR mediated cardiac function have been studied by several investigators for many years. In the present review, we have screened PubMed database to obtain relevant articles on this topic. Our search has ended up with wide range of different findings about the effect of diabetes on β-AR mediated changes both in molecular and functional level. Considering these inconsistent findings, the effect of diabetes on cardiac β-AR still remains to be clarified.

NOS1 induces NADPH oxidases and impairs contraction kinetics in aged murine ventricular myocytes. Basic Res Cardiol 2015; 110:506.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) modulates calcium transients and contraction of cardiomyocytes. However, it is largely unknown whether NO contributes also to alterations in the contractile function of cardiomyocytes during aging. Therefore, we analyzed the putative role of nitric oxide synthases and NO for the age-related alterations of cardiomyocyte contraction. We used C57BL/6 mice, nitric oxide synthase 1 (NOS1)-deficient mice (NOS1(-/-)) and mice with cardiomyocyte-specific NOS1-overexpression to analyze contractions, calcium transients (Indo-1 fluorescence), acto-myosin ATPase activity (malachite green assay), NADPH oxidase activity (lucigenin chemiluminescence) of isolated ventricular myocytes and cardiac gene expression (Western blots, qPCR). In C57BL/6 mice, cardiac expression of NOS1 was upregulated by aging. Since we found a negative regulation of NOS1 expression by cAMP in isolated cardiomyocytes, we suggest that reduced efficacy of β-adrenergic signaling that is evident in aged hearts promotes upregulation of NOS1. Shortening and relengthening of cardiomyocytes from aged C57BL/6 mice were decelerated, but were normalized by pharmacological inhibition of NOS1/NO. Cardiomyocytes from NOS1(-/-) mice displayed no age-related changes in contraction, calcium transients or acto-myosin ATPase activity. Aging increased cardiac expression of NADPH oxidase subunits NOX2 and NOX4 in C57BL/6 mice, but not in NOS1(-/-) mice. Similarly, cardiac expression of NOX2 and NOX4 was upregulated in a murine model with cardiomyocyte-specific overexpression of NOS1. We conclude that age-dependently upregulated NOS1, putatively via reduced efficacy of β-adrenergic signaling, induces NADPH oxidases. By increasing nitrosative and oxidative stress, both enzyme systems act synergistically to decelerate contraction of aged cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
Objective: Diabetes mellitus causes a decrease in cardiac output, arterial blood pressure, and heart rate. In this study, we aimed to investigate, at the molecular level, the effect of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) on heart pathology in type 1 diabetes and look at the therapeutic effect of pentoxifylline on this pathology. Methods: In this experimental study, 50 Wistar albino male rats were used. The rats were divided into 5 groups: group C, control; group D, only diabetes; group D+PI and D+PII, diabetes + pentoxifylline; group P, only pentoxifylline. Group D+PI rats received 50 mg/kg/day pentoxifylline over two months. However, group D+PII rats received saline in the first month and 50 mg/kg/day of pentoxifylline over the following month. At the end of two months, NOS expressions in heart tissue were assessed through immunohistochemistry analysis. The data were compared by one-way ANOVA. Results: At the end of the experiments, there was increased cytoplasmic vacuolization, myofibrillar loss, cytoplasmic eosinophilia, and degeneration of cardiomyocytes; nNOS and iNOS expressions in group D decreased compared with that in group C. In group D+PI and group D+PII, nNOS and iNOS expressions improved compared with group D. Conclusion: As a result, we found that diabetes, a known chronic disease, causes serious damage in heart tissue. NOS plays a role in this damage, and pentoxifylline aided in improving nNOS and iNOS expression in this damage.

Abstract
Superoxide (O 2 (·-) ) overproduction, by decreasing the nitric oxide ((·)NO) bioavailability, contributes to vascular complications in type 1 diabetes. In this disease, the vascular O 2 (·-) can be produced by the NADPH oxidase (NOX), nitric oxide synthase (NOS), and xanthine oxidase (XO). This study aimed to determine the contribution of each enzymatic pathway in hyperglycemia-induced O 2 (·-) overproduction, and the effects of an endurance training program and insulin therapy, associated or not, on the O 2 (·-) production (amount and related enzymes) in diabetic rats. Forty male Wistar rats were divided into diabetic (D), diabetic treated with insulin (D-Ins), diabetic trained (D-Tr), or diabetic insulin-treated and trained (D-Ins + Tr) groups. An additional healthy group was used as control. Insulin therapy (Glargine Lantus, Sanofi) and endurance training (treadmill run: 60 min/day, 25 m/min, 5 days/week) started 1 week after diabetes induction by streptozotocin (45 mg/kg), and lasted for 8 weeks. At the end of the protocol, the O 2 (·-) production in aorta rings was evaluated by histochemical analyses (DHE staining). Each production pathway was studied by inhibiting NOX (apocynin), NOS (L-Name), or XO (allopurinol) before DHE staining. Diabetic rats exhibited hyperglycemia-induced O 2 (·-) overproduction, resulting from NOX, NOS, and XO activation. Insulin therapy and endurance training, associated or not, decreased efficiently and similarly the O 2 (·-) overproduction. Insulin therapy reduced the hyperglycemia and decreased the three enzymatic pathways implicated in the O 2 (·-) production. Endurance training decreased directly the NOS and XO activity. While both therapeutic strategies activated different pathways, their association did not reduce the O 2 (·-) overproduction more significantly.

A model of poorly controlled type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and its treatment with aerobic exercise training. DIABETES & METABOLISM 2013; 39:226-35.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Modern exogenous insulin therapy can improve the quality of life of Type 1 Diabetic Mellitus (T1DM) patients, although maintenance of normal glycaemic levels is often a challenge given the variety of factors that alter it. A number of studies have examined the effect of exercise in T1DM; however, the majority of experimental studies have utilized diabetic rodents with severe hyperglycaemia. Given that T1DM patients are likely to refrain from hyperglycaemia, studies examining the effects of regular exercise in which blood glucose is poorly controlled would better represent the T1DM population. METHODS The current study examined the ability of a ten-week aerobic exercise training program to modify markers of cardiovascular function and bone health in STZ-induced diabetic rodents maintained in the 9-15 mM glycaemic range through insulin therapy. RESULTS Moderate hyperglycaemia, when prolonged, leads to significant changes in cardiac structure, bone health, and glucose handling capacity. Ten weeks of exercise was able to alleviate many of these deleterious events as no significant cardiovascular functional alterations were evident except a reduction in resting heart rate and an increase in stroke volume index. Further, despite changes in cardiac dimensions, exercise was able to elevate cardiac output index and increase the E/A ratio of exercising diabetic animals which would be indicative of improvements of cardiac function. CONCLUSIONS Together, this study demonstrates that despite moderate hyperglycaemia, the combined role of a ten-week exercise training program coupled with insulin therapy is able to alleviate many of the well-known complications associated with diabetes progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine the effects of intense physical training on vascular function in streptozotocin-diabetic rats. We focused on the endothelium-dependent relaxation (EDR) induced by acetylcholine (ACh) and stable ADP adenosine-5'- O - (2-thiodiphosphate) (ADPβS). METHODS Control or diabetic male Wistar rats (n=44) were randomly assigned to sedentary or trained groups. The training program consisted in a regular period of running on a treadmill during 8 weeks (10° incline and up to 25 m/min, 60 min/day). The reactivity of isolated thoracic aorta rings of healthy, diabetic and/or trained has been tested. RESULTS ACh and ADPβS-induced EDR were observed in phenylephrine (PE) pre-contracted vessels. As compared to sedentary control group, diabetic rats showed an increase in PE-induced contraction and a decrease in ACh and ADPβS-induced EDR (p<0.05). Moreover, there were no increase in ACh and ADPβS-induced EDR in diabetic rats. N-Nitro-L-Arginine Methyl Ester inhibited the nitric oxide synthase in diabetic and control rats, thereby resulting in a strong inhibition of the EDR induced by ACh and ADPβS (10-6 M). CONCLUSION Diabetes induced an endothelium dysfunction. Nevertheless, our intense physical training was not effective to restore the aorta endothelial function.

Abstract
While significant research has clearly identified sedentary behavior as a risk factor for type 2 diabetes and its subsequent complications, the concept that inactivity could be linked to the complications associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D) remains underappreciated. This paper summarizes the known effects of exercise on T1D at the tissue level and focuses on the pancreas, bone, the cardiovascular system, the kidneys, skeletal muscle, and nerves. When possible, the molecular mechanisms underlying the benefits of exercise for T1D are elucidated. The general benefits of increased activity on health and the barriers to increased exercise specific to people with T1D are discussed.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of 8 weeks of intense exercise training combined with insulin treatment on the Ca2+-cycling protein complex expression and their functional consequences on cardiac function in type 1 diabetic rat hearts. Diabetic Wistar rats were randomly assigned into the following groups: received no treatment, insulin-treated diabetic, trained diabetic, and trained insulin-treated diabetic. A control group was also included. Insulin treatment and (or) treadmill intense exercise training were conducted over 8 weeks. Basal cardiac function was evaluated by Langendorff technique. Cardiac expression of the main Ca2+-cycling proteins (RyR2, FKBP 12.6, SERCA2, PLB, NCX1) was assessed by Western blot. Diabetes altered basal cardiac function (±dP/dt) and decrease the expression of the main Ca2+-cycling proteins expression: RyR2, SERCA2, and NCX1 (p < 0.05). Whereas combined treatment was not able to normalize –dP/dt, it succeeded to normalize +dP/dt of diabetic rats (p < 0.05). Moreover, both insulin and intense exercise training, applied solely, increased the expression of the Ca2+-cycling proteins: RyR2, SERCA2, PLB. and NCX1 (p < 0.05). But this effect was higher when the 2 treatments were combined. These data are the first to show that combined insulin treatment and intense exercise training during diabetes synergistically act on the expression of the main Ca2+-cycling proteins, providing insights into mechanisms by which the dual treatment during diabetes improves cardiac function.

Abstract
Catecholamines play a key role in the regulation of cardiovascular function, classically through ß(1/2)-adrenoreceptors (AR) activation. After ß(3)-AR cloning in the late 1980s, convincing evidence for ß(3)-AR expression and function in cardiovascular tissues recently initiated a reexamination of their involvement in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases. Their upregulation in diseased cardiovascular tissues and resistance to desensitization suggest they may be attractive therapeutic targets. They may substitute for inoperant ß(1/2)-AR to mediate vasodilation in diabetic or atherosclerotic vessels. In cardiac ventricle, their contractile effects are functionally antipathetic to those of ß(1/2)-AR; in normal heart, ß(3)-ARs may mediate a moderate negative inotropic effect, but in heart failure, it may protect against adverse effects of excessive catecholamine stimulation by action on excitation-contraction coupling, electrophysiology, or remodelling. Thus, prospective studies in animals and patients at different stages of heart failure should lead to identify the best therapeutic window to use ß(3)-AR agonists and/or antagonists.
