Abstract
AIMS Endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS) can induce inflammation mediated by NLRP3 inflammatory bodies and link inflammation with oxidative stress in myocardial tissue. Ghrelin is an endogenous growth hormone-releasing peptide that has been proven to have multiple effects, such as regulating energy metabolism and inhibiting inflammation. However, the role of ghrelin in myocardial injury in diabetic rats and the mechanism have not been reported. RESULTS We found that ghrelin could improve endoplasmic reticulum stress and inflammatory pyroptosis in the myocardial tissue of diabetic rats and reduce ERS and NLRP3 inflammasome crosstalk in H9C2 cardiomyocytes. Interestingly, ghrelin could activate the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway, playing a role in inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress and reducing the expression of pyroptosis-related proteins. However, these protective effects could be largely eliminated by LY294002. CONCLUSIONS In summary, we demonstrated that ghrelin inhibited myocardial pyroptosis in diabetic cardiomyopathy by regulating ERS and NLRP3 inflammasome crosstalk through the PI3K/AKT pathway. Our results provide new insights into the mechanism of diabetic myocardial injury induced by high glucose and high palmitic acid and ghrelin-mediated anti-inflammatory protection and provide potential therapeutic targets and strategies for diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and inflammation significantly contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Persistent inflammatory stimuli drive the progression of myocardial fibrosis and impaired cardiac function. Phloridzin (Phl), a natural compound, demonstrates both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Nevertheless, its therapeutic potential and underlying mechanisms in DCM remain unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the mechanisms through which Phl inhibited myocardial fibrosis and exerted its antioxidative effects. The impact of Phl on DCM was evaluated using a high-fat/high-sugar diet combined with streptozotocin to induce an animal model and an in vitro H9C2 cell model stimulated by high glucose (HG). Untargeted metabolomics identified potential mechanisms underlying myocardial fibrosis. Phl treatment significantly enhanced left ventricular ejection fraction (EF%) and shortening fraction (FS%), while reducing myocardial injury markers, such as lactate dehydrogenase and creatine phosphokinase-MB, and suppressing myocardial collagen fiber accumulation. Simultaneously, Phl attenuated myocardial inflammation via inhibition of MyD88/NF-κB signaling, modulated the Nrf2/GPX4 axis to counter oxidative stress, and mitigated ferroptosis. In vitro, Phl inhibited high glucose-induced myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis in H9C2 cells, while also repressing NF-κB activation in cardiomyocytes. Metabolomic profiling revealed that Phl ameliorated DCM through modulation of glycerophospholipid metabolic pathways, linking these metabolic shifts to enhanced antioxidant capacity, thereby reflecting its ability to reduce oxidative stress in the myocardium. Collectively, Phl provides cardioprotective effects by alleviating inflammation and oxidative damage.

Abstract
As common clinical-pathological processes, wound healing and tissue remodelling following injury or stimulation are essential topics in medical research. Promoting the effective healing of prolonged wounds, improving tissue repair and regeneration, and preventing fibrosis are important and challenging issues in clinical practice. Ferroptosis, which is characterized by iron overload and lipid peroxidation, is a nontraditional form of regulated cell death. Emerging evidence indicates that dysregulated metabolic pathways and impaired iron homeostasis play important roles in various healing and regeneration processes via ferroptosis. Thus, we review the intrinsic mechanisms of tissue repair and remodeling via ferroptosis in different organs and systems under various conditions, including the inflammatory response in skin wounds, remodeling of joints and cartilage, and fibrosis in multiple organs. Additionally, we summarize the common underlying mechanisms, key molecules, and targeted drugs for ferroptosis in repair and regeneration. Finally, we discuss the potential of therapeutic agents, small molecules, and novel materials emerging for targeting ferroptosis to promote wound healing and tissue repair and attenuate fibrosis.

Abstract
Diabetes is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, and myocardial damage caused by hyperglycemia is the main cause of heart failure. However, there is still a lack of systematic understanding of myocardial damage caused by diabetes. At present, we believe that the cellular inflammatory damage caused by hyperglycemia is one of the causes of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Pyroptosis, as a proinflammatory form of cell death, is closely related to the occurrence and development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Therefore, this paper focuses on the important role of inflammation in the occurrence and development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. From the perspective of pyroptosis, we summarize the pyroptosis of different types of cells in diabetic cardiomyopathy and its related signaling pathways. It also summarizes the treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy, hoping to provide methods for the prevention and treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy by inhibiting pyroptosis.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a specific heart condition in diabetic patients, which is a major cause of heart failure and significantly affects quality of life. DCM is manifested as abnormal cardiac structure and function in the absence of ischaemic or hypertensive heart disease in individuals with diabetes. Although the development of DCM involves multiple pathological mechanisms, mitochondrial dysfunction is considered to play a crucial role. The regulatory mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction mainly include mitochondrial dynamics, oxidative stress, calcium handling, uncoupling, biogenesis, mitophagy, and insulin signaling. Targeting mitochondrial function in the treatment of DCM has attracted increasing attention. Studies have shown that plant secondary metabolites contribute to improving mitochondrial function and alleviating the development of DCM. This review outlines the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in the pathogenesis of DCM and discusses the regulatory mechanism for mitochondrial dysfunction. In addition, it also summarizes treatment strategies based on plant secondary metabolites. These strategies targeting the treatment of mitochondrial dysfunction may help prevent and treat DCM.

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 This 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.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the leading cause of mortality in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients, with its underlying mechanisms still elusive. This study aims to investigate the role of cholesterol-25-monooxygenase (CH25H) in T2DM induced cardiomyopathy. METHODS High fat diet combined with streptozotocin (HFD/STZ) were used to establish a T2DM model. CH25H and its product 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC) were detected in the hearts of T2DM model. Gain- or loss-of-function of CH25H were performed by receiving AAV9-cTNT-CH25H or CH25H knockout (CH25H-/-) mice with HFD/STZ treatment. Cardiac function was evaluated using echocardiography, and cardiac tissues were collected for immunoblot analysis, histological assessment and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Mitochondrial morphology and function were evaluated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Seahorse XF Cell Mito Stress Test Kit. RNA-sequence analysis was performed to determine the molecular changes associated with CH25H deletion. RESULTS CH25H and 25HC were significantly decreased in the hearts of T2DM mice. CH25H-/- mice treated with HFD/STZ exhibited impaired mitochondrial function and structure, increased lipid accumulation, and aggregated cardiac dysfunction. Conversely, T2DM mice receiving AAV9-CH25H displayed cardioprotective effects. Mechanistically, RNA sequencing and qPCR analysis revealed that CH25H deficiency decreased peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) and its target gene expression. Additionally, administration of ZLN005, a potent PGC-1α activator, partially protected against high glucose and palmitic acid induced mitochondria dysfunction and lipid accumulation in vitro. CONCLUSION Our study provides compelling evidence supporting the protective role of CH25H in T2DM-induced cardiomyopathy. Furthermore, the regulation of PGC-1α may be intricately involved in this cardioprotective process.

Abstract
MG53, a member of the tripartite motif protein family, possesses multiple functionalities due to its classic membrane repair function, anti-inflammatory ability, and E3 ubiquitin ligase properties. Initially recognized for its crucial role in membrane repair, the therapeutic potential of MG53 has been extensively explored in various diseases including muscle injury, myocardial damage, acute lung injury, and acute kidney injury. However, further research has revealed that the E3 ubiquitin ligase characteristics of MG53 also contribute to the pathogenesis of certain conditions such as diabetic cardiomyopathy, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome. Moreover, recent studies have highlighted the anti-tumor effects of MG53 in different types of cancer, such as small cell lung cancer, liver cancer, and colorectal cancer; these effects are closely associated with their E3 ubiquitin ligase activities. In summary, MG53 is a multifunctional protein that participates in important physiological and pathological processes of multiple organs and is a promising therapeutic target for various human diseases. MG53 plays a multi-organ protective role due to its membrane repair function and its exertion of anti-tumor effects due to its E3 ubiquitin ligase properties. In addition, the controversial aspect of MG53's E3 ubiquitin ligase properties potentially causing insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome necessitates further cross-validation for clarity.

[PMID: 38672121 PMCID: PMC11048005 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12040765] [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: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the development of myocardial dysfunction in patients with diabetes despite the absence of comorbidities such as hypertension, atherosclerosis or valvular defect. The cardiovascular complications of poorly controlled diabetes are very well illustrated by the U.K. Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS), which showed a clear association between increasing levels of glycated hemoglobin and the development of heart failure (HF). The incidence of HF in patients with diabetes is projected to increase significantly, which is why its proper diagnosis and treatment is so important. Providing appropriate therapy focusing on antidiabetic and hypolipemic treatment with the consideration of pharmacotherapy for heart failure reduces the risk of CMD and reduces the incidence of cardiovascular complications. Health-promoting changes made by patients such as a low-carbohydrate diet, regular exercise and weight reduction also appear to be important in achieving appropriate outcomes. New hope for the development of therapies for DCM is offered by novel methods using stem cells and miRNA, which, however, require more thorough research to confirm their efficacy.

Abstract
Pyroptosis is one kind of programmed cell death in which the cell membrane ruptures and subsequently releases cell contents and pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-1β and IL-18. Pyroptosis is caused by many types of pathological stimuli, such as hyperglycemia (HG), oxidative stress, and inflammation, and is mediated by gasdermin (GSDM) protein family. Increasing evidence indicates that pyroptosis plays an important role in multiple diseases, such as cancer, kidney diseases, inflammatory diseases, and cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, the regulation of pyroptosis is crucial for the occurrence, development, and treatment of many diseases. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a biologically active gasotransmitter following carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxide (NO) in mammalian tissues. So far, three enzymes, including 3-mercaptopyruvate sulphurtransferase (3-MST), cystathionine γ- Lyase (CSE), and Cystine β-synthesis enzyme (CBS), have been found to catalyze the production of endogenous H2S in mammals. H2S has been reported to have multiple biological functions including anti-inflammation, anti-oxidative stress, anti-apoptosis and so on. Hence, H2S is involved in various physiological and pathological processes. In recent years, many studies have demonstrated that H2S plays a critical role by regulating pyroptosis in various pathological processes, such as ischemia-reperfusion injury, alcoholic liver disease, and diabetes cardiomyopathy. However, the relevant mechanism has not been completely understood. Therefore, elucidating the mechanism by which H2S regulates pyroptosis in diseases will help understand the pathogenesis of multiple diseases and provide important new avenues for the treatment of many diseases. Here, we reviewed the progress of H2S regulation of pyroptosis in different pathological processes, and analyzed the molecular mechanism in detail to provide a theoretical reference for future related research.

Abstract
Cardiomyopathy, a heterogeneous pathological condition characterized by changes in cardiac structure or function, represents a significant risk factor for the prevalence and mortality of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Research conducted over the years has led to the modification of definition and classification of cardiomyopathy. Herein, we reviewed seven of the most common types of cardiomyopathies, including Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC), diabetic cardiomyopathy, Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM), desmin-associated cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM), Ischemic Cardiomyopathy (ICM), and obesity cardiomyopathy, focusing on their definitions, epidemiology, and influencing factors. Cardiomyopathies manifest in various ways ranging from microscopic alterations in cardiomyocytes, to tissue hypoperfusion, cardiac failure, and arrhythmias caused by electrical conduction abnormalities. As pleiotropic Transcription Factors (TFs), the Krüppel-Like Factors (KLFs), a family of zinc finger proteins, are involved in regulating the setting and development of cardiomyopathies, and play critical roles in associated biological processes, including Oxidative Stress (OS), inflammatory reactions, myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis, and cellular autophagy and apoptosis, particularly in diabetic cardiomyopathy. However, research into KLFs in cardiomyopathy is still in its early stages, and the pathophysiologic mechanisms of some KLF members in various types of cardiomyopathies remain unclear. This article reviews the roles and recent research advances in KLFs, specifically those targeting and regulating several cardiomyopathy-associated processes.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) is one of the most common vascular complications of diabetes, and can cause heart failure and threaten the life of patients. The pathogenesis is complex, and key genes have not fully identified. In this study, bioinformatics analysis was used to predict DbCM-related gene targets. Published datasets from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus with accession numbers GSE62203 and GSE197850 were selected for analysis. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by the online tool GEO2R. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed using the DAVID online database. Protein-protein interaction network construction and hub gene identification were performed using STRING and Cytoscape. We used 30 mM and 1 μM hydrocortisone-stimulated AC16 cells as an in vitro model of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to validate the expression levels of hub genes. A total of 73 common DEGs were identified in both datasets, including 47 upregulated and 26 downregulated genes. GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses revealed that the DEGs were significantly enriched in metabolism, hypoxia response, apoptosis, cell proliferation regulation, and cytoplasmic and HIF signalling pathways. The top 10 hub genes were LDHA, PGK1, SLC2A1, ENO1, PFKFB3, EGLN1, MYC, PDK1, EGLN3 and BNIP3. In our in vitro study, we found that PGK1, SLC2A1, PFKFB3, EGLN1, MYC, EGLN3 and BNIP3 were upregulated, ENO1 was downregulated, and LDHA was unchanged. Except for PGK1 and ENO1, these hub genes have been previously reported to be involved in DbCM. In summary, we identified DEGs and hub genes and first reported PGK1 and ENO1 in DbCM, which may serve as potential candidate genes for DbCM targeted therapy.

Abstract
Circular RNA (circRNA) is a class of RNA with the 5' and 3' ends connected covalently to form a closed loop structure and characterized by high stability, conserved sequences and tissue specificity, which is caused by special reverse splicing methods. Currently, it has become a hot spot for research. With the discovery of its powerful regulatory functions and roles, the molecular mechanisms and future value of circRNA in participating in and regulating biological and pathological processes are becoming increasingly apparent. Among them is the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Many studies have elucidated that circRNA plays a crucial role in the development and progression of CVDs. Therefore, circRNA shows its advantages and brilliant expectations in the field of CVDs. In this review, we describe the biogenesis, bioinformatics detection and function of circRNA and discuss the role of circRNA and its effects on CVDs, including atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure, myocardial fibrosis, cardiac senescence, pulmonary hypertension, and diabetic cardiomyopathy by different mechanisms. That shows circRNA advantages and brilliant expectations in the field of CVDs.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases represent a significant worldwide problem, jeopardizing individuals' physical and mental wellbeing as well as their quality of life as a result of their widespread incidence and fatality. With the aging society, the occurrence of Cardiovascular diseases is progressively rising each year. However, although drugs developed for treating Cardiovascular diseases have clear targets and proven efficacy, they still carry certain toxic and side effect risks. Therefore, finding safe, effective, and practical treatment options is crucial. Scutellarin is the primary constituent of Erigeron breviscapus (Vant.) Hand-Mazz. This article aims to establish a theoretical foundation for the creation and use of secure, productive, and logical medications for Scutellarin in curing heart-related illnesses. Additionally, the examination and analysis of the signal pathway and its associated mechanisms with regard to the employment of SCU in treating heart diseases will impart innovative resolving concepts for the treatment and prevention of Cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
NADPH oxidase, as a major source of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), assumes an important role in the immune response and oxidative stress response of the body. NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) is the first and most representative member of the NADPH oxidase family, and its effects on the development of tumor cells are gaining more and more attention. Our previous study suggested that NCF4 polymorphism in p40phox, a key subunit of NOX2, affected the outcome of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients treated with rituximab. It hypothesized that NOX2-mediated ROS could enhance the cytotoxic effects of some anti-tumor drugs in favor of patients with tumors. Several reviews have summarized the role of NOX2 and its congeners-mediated ROS in anti-tumor therapy, but few studies focused on the relationship between the expression of NOX2 and anti-tumor drug resistance. In this article, we systematically introduced the NOX family, represented by NOX2, and a classification of the latest inhibitors and agonists of NOX2. It will help researchers to have a more rational and objective understanding of the dual role of NOX2 in tumor drug resistance and is expected to provide new ideas for oncology treatment and overcoming drug resistance in cancer.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases represent a global health crisis, and understanding the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac pathology is crucial for developing effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Mitsugumin-53 (MG53) plays a pivotal role in cell membrane repair, has emerged as a multifaceted player in cardiovascular health. MG53, also known as TRIM72, is primarily expressed in cardiac and skeletal muscle and actively participates in membrane repair processes essential for maintaining cardiomyocyte viability. It promotes k-ion currents, ensuring action potential integrity, and actively engages in repairing myocardial and mitochondrial membranes, preserving cardiac function in the face of oxidative stress. This study discusses the dual impact of MG53 on cardiac health, highlighting its cardioprotective role during ischemia/reperfusion injury, its modulation of cardiac arrhythmias, and its influence on cardiomyopathy. MG53's regulation of metabolic pathways, such as lipid metabolism, underlines its role in diabetic cardiomyopathy, while its potential to mitigate the effects of various cardiac disorders, including those induced by antipsychotic medications and alcohol consumption, warrants further exploration. Furthermore, we examine MG53's diagnostic potential as a biomarker for cardiac injury. Research has shown that MG53 levels correlate with cardiomyocyte damage and may predict major adverse cardiovascular events, highlighting its value as a biomarker. Additionally, exogenous recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) emerges as a promising therapeutic option, demonstrating its ability to reduce infarct size, inhibit apoptosis, and attenuate fibrotic responses. In summary, MG53's diagnostic and therapeutic potential in cardiovascular diseases presents an exciting avenue for improved patient care and outcomes.

Abstract
In diabetic patients, concomitant cardiovascular disease is the main factor contributing to their morbidity and mortality. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a form of cardiovascular disease associated with diabetes that can result in heart failure. Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) isoforms play a crucial role in heart remodeling and repair and are elevated and activated in myocardial disorders. Alterations in certain microRNAs (miRNA) are closely related to diabetic cardiomyopathy. One or more miRNA molecules target the majority of TGF-β pathway components, and TGF-β directly or via SMADs controls miRNA synthesis. Based on these interactions, this review discusses potential cross-talk between TGF-β signaling and miRNA in DCM in order to investigate the creation of potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired energetics as contributing factors, significantly contributes to high mortality in patients with diabetes. Targeting key proteins involved in mitochondrial dysfunction might offer new therapeutic possibilities for DCM. Lentinan (LNT), a β-(1,3)-glucan polysaccharide obtained from lentinus edodes, has demonstrated biological activity in modulating metabolic syndrome. In this study, the authors investigate LNT's pharmacological effects on and mechanisms against DCM. The results demonstrate that administering LNT to db/db mice reduces cardiomyocyte apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction, thereby preventing DCM. Notably, these effects are fully negated by Caveolin-1 (CAV1) overexpression both in vivo and in vitro. Further studies and bioinformatics analysis uncovered that CAV1 bound with Succinate dehydrogenase subunit A (SDHA), triggering the following ubiquitination and degradation of SDHA, which leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and mitochondria-derived apoptosis under PA condition. Silencing CAV1 leads to reduced apoptosis and improved mitochondrial function, which is blocked by SDHA knockdown. In conclusion, CAV1 directly interacts with SDHA to promote ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, resulting in mitochondrial dysfunction and mitochondria-derived apoptosis, which was depressed by LNT administration. Therefore, LNT may be a potential pharmacological agent in preventing DCM, and targeting the CAV1/SDHA pathway may be a promising therapeutic approach for DCM.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy describes decreased myocardial function in diabetic patients in the absence of other heart diseases such as myocardial ischemia and hypertension. Recent studies have defined numerous molecular interactions and signaling events that may account for deleterious changes in mitochondrial dynamics and functions influenced by hyperglycemic stress. A metabolic switch from glucose to fatty acid oxidation to fuel ATP synthesis, mitochondrial oxidative injury resulting from increased mitochondrial ROS production and decreased antioxidant capacity, enhanced mitochondrial fission and defective mitochondrial fusion, impaired mitophagy, and blunted mitochondrial biogenesis are major signatures of mitochondrial pathologies during diabetic cardiomyopathy. This review describes the molecular alterations underlying mitochondrial abnormalities associated with hyperglycemia and discusses their influence on cardiomyocyte viability and function. Based on basic research findings and clinical evidence, diabetic treatment standards and their impact on mitochondrial function, as well as mitochondria-targeted therapies of potential benefit for diabetic cardiomyopathy patients, are also summarized.

Abstract
Starch-binding domain-containing protein 1 (STBD1) is a glycogen-binding protein discovered in skeletal muscle gene differential expression that is pivotal to cellular energy metabolism. Recent studies have indicated that STBD1 is involved in many physiological processes, such as glycophagy, glycogen accumulation, and lipid droplet formation. Moreover, dysregulation of STBD1 causes multiple diseases, including cardiovascular disease, metabolic disease, and even cancer. Deletions and/or mutations in STBD1 promote tumorigenesis. Therefore, STBD1 has garnered considerable interest in the pathology community. In this review, we first summarized the current understanding of STBD1, including its structure, subcellular localization, tissue distribution, and biological functions. Next, we examined the roles and molecular mechanisms of STBD1 in related diseases. Based on available research, we discussed the novel function and future of STBD1, including its potential application as a therapeutic target in glycogen-related diseases. Given the significance of STBD1 in energy metabolism, an in-depth understanding of the protein is crucial for understanding physiological processes and developing therapeutic strategies for related diseases.

Abstract
The abnormal lipid metabolism in diabetic cardiomyopathy can cause myocardial mitochondrial dysfunction, lipotoxicity, abnormal death of myocardial cells, and myocardial remodeling. Mitochondrial homeostasis and normal lipid metabolism can effectively slow down the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Recent studies have shown that SIRT6 may play an important role in the pathological changes of diabetic cardiomyopathy such as myocardial cell death, myocardial hypertrophy, and myocardial fibrosis by regulating mitochondrial oxidative stress and glucose and lipid metabolism. Therefore, understanding the function of SIRT6 and its role in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy is of great significance for exploring and developing new targets and drugs for the treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy. This article reviews the latest findings of SIRT6 in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy, focusing on the regulation of mitochondria and lipid metabolism by SIRT6 to explore potential clinical treatments.

Abstract
Antioxidant protection is one of the key reactions of cardiomyocytes (CMCs) in response to myocardial damage of various origins. The thioredoxin interacting protein (TXNIP) is an inhibitor of thioredoxin (TXN). Over the recent few years, TXNIP has received significant attention due to its wide range of functions in energy metabolism. In the present work, we studied the features of the redox-thiol systems, in particular, the amount of TXNIP and glutathione synthetase (GS) as markers of oxidative damage to CMCs and antioxidant protection, respectively. This study was carried out on 38-week-old Wistar-Kyoto rats with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DM) induced by streptozotocin, on 38- and 57-week-old hypertensive SHR rats and on a model of combined hypertension and DM (38-week-old SHR rats with DM). It was found that the amount of TXNIP increased in 57-week-old SHR rats, in diabetic rats and in SHR rats with DM. In 38-week-old SHR rats, the expression of TXNIP significantly decreased. The expression of GS was significantly higher compared with the controls in 57-week-old SHR rats, in DM rats and in the case of the combination of hypertension and DM. The obtained data show that myocardial damage caused by DM and hypertension are accompanied by the activation of oxidative stress and antioxidant protection.

Abstract
Cardiac fibrosis (CF) is considered an ultimate common pathway of a wide variety of heart diseases in response to diverse pathological and pathophysiological stimuli. Mitochondria are characterized as isolated organelles with a double-membrane structure, and they primarily contribute to and maintain highly dynamic energy and metabolic networks whose distribution and structure exert potent support for cellular properties and performance. Because the myocardium is a highly oxidative tissue with high energy demands to continuously pump blood, mitochondria are the most abundant organelles within mature cardiomyocytes, accounting for up to one-third of the total cell volume, and play an essential role in maintaining optimal performance of the heart. Mitochondrial quality control (MQC), including mitochondrial fusion, fission, mitophagy, mitochondrial biogenesis, and mitochondrial metabolism and biosynthesis, is crucial machinery that modulates cardiac cells and heart function by maintaining and regulating the morphological structure, function and lifespan of mitochondria. Certain investigations have focused on mitochondrial dynamics, including manipulating and maintaining the dynamic balance of energy demand and nutrient supply, and the resultant findings suggest that changes in mitochondrial morphology and function may contribute to bioenergetic adaptation during cardiac fibrosis and pathological remodeling. In this review, we discuss the function of epigenetic regulation and molecular mechanisms of MQC in the pathogenesis of CF and provide evidence for targeting MQC for CF. Finally, we discuss how these findings can be applied to improve the treatment and prevention of CF.

Abstract
Ageing is a composite process that involves numerous changes at the cellular, tissue, organ and whole-body levels. These changes result in decreased functioning of the organism and the development of certain conditions, which ultimately lead to an increased risk of death. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are a family of compounds with a diverse chemical nature. They are the products of non-enzymatic reactions between reducing sugars and proteins, lipids or nucleic acids and are synthesised in high amounts in both physiological and pathological conditions. Accumulation of these molecules increases the level of damage to tissue/organs structures (immune elements, connective tissue, brain, pancreatic beta cells, nephrons, and muscles), which consequently triggers the development of age-related diseases, such as diabetes mellitus, neurodegeneration, and cardiovascular and kidney disorders. Irrespective of the role of AGEs in the initiation or progression of chronic disorders, a reduction in their levels would certainly provide health benefits. In this review, we provide an overview of the role of AGEs in these areas. Moreover, we provide examples of lifestyle interventions, such as caloric restriction or physical activities, that may modulate AGE formation and accumulation and help to promote healthy ageing.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease with a high prevalence worldwide, and cardiovascular complications are the leading cause of mortality in patients with diabetes. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), which is prone to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, is defined as a cardiac dysfunction without conventional cardiac risk factors such as coronary heart disease and hypertension. Mitochondria are the centers of energy metabolism that are very important for maintaining the function of the heart. They are highly dynamic in response to environmental changes through mitochondrial dynamics. The disruption of mitochondrial dynamics is closely related to the occurrence and development of DCM. Mitochondrial dynamics are controlled by circadian clock and show oscillation rhythm. This rhythm enables mitochondria to respond to changing energy demands in different environments, but it is disordered in diabetes. In this review, we summarize the significant role of circadian clock-controlled mitochondrial dynamics in the etiology of DCM and hope to play a certain enlightening role in the treatment of DCM.

Abstract
Ventricular remodeling is a pathological process of ventricular response to continuous stimuli such as pressure overload, ischemia or ischemia-reperfusion, which can lead to the change of cardiac structure and function structure, which is central to the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF) and is an established prognostic factor in patients with HF. Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) get a new hypoglycemic drug that inhibit sodium glucose coconspirator on renal tubular epithelial cells. Recently, clinical trials increasingly and animal experiments increasingly have shown that SGLT2 inhibitors have been largely applied in the fields of cardiovascular diseases, forinstance heart failure, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes cardiomyopathy and other diseases play a cardiovascular protective role in addition to hypoglycemic. These diseases are association with ventricular remodeling. Inhibiting ventricular remodeling can improve the readmission rate and mortality of patients with heart failure. So far, clinical trials and animal experiments demonstrate that the protective effect of SGLT2 inhibitors in the cardiovascular field is bound to inhibit ventricular remodeling. Therefore, this review briefly investigates the molecular mechanisms of SGLT2 inhibitors on ameliorating ventricular remodeling, and further explore the mechanisms of cardiovascular protection of SGLT2 inhibitors, in order to establish strategies for ventricular remodeling to prevent the progress of heart failure.

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.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a serious complication of type 1 and type 2 diabetes, which leads to the aggravation of myocardial fibrosis, disorders involving systolic and diastolic functions, and increased mortality of patients with diabetes through mechanisms such as glycolipid toxicity, inflammatory response, and oxidative stress. Ferroptosis is a form of iron-dependent regulatory cell death that is attributed to the accumulation of lipid peroxides and an imbalance in redox regulation. Increased production of lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS) during ferroptosis promotes oxidative stress and damages myocardial cells, leading to myocardial systolic and diastolic dysfunction. Overproduction of ROS is an important bridge between ferroptosis and DCM, and ferroptosis inhibitors may provide new targets for the treatment of patients with DCM.

Abstract
The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is a classical Wnt pathway that regulates the stability and nuclear localization of β-catenin and plays an important role in adult heart development and cardiac tissue homeostasis. In recent years, an increasing number of researchers have implicated the dysregulation of this signaling pathway in a variety of cardiac diseases, such as myocardial infarction, arrhythmias, arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathies, and myocardial hypertrophy. The morbidity and mortality of cardiac diseases are increasing, which brings great challenges to clinical treatment and seriously affects patient health. Thus, understanding the biological roles of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in these diseases may be essential for cardiac disease treatment and diagnosis to improve patient quality of life. In this review, we summarize current research on the roles of β-catenin in human cardiac diseases and potential inhibitors of Wnt/β-catenin, which may provide new strategies for cardiac disease therapies.

OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:3027514. [PMID: 36624878 PMCID: PMC9825225 DOI: 10.1155/2022/3027514] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 23.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) can induce cardiomyocyte injury and lead to diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) which presently has no specific treatments and consequently increase risk of mortality. OBJECTIVE To characterize the therapeutic effect of 6-gingerol (6-G) on DCM and identify its potential mechanism. METHODS In vivo streptozotocin- (STZ-) induced DM model was established by using a high-fat diet and STZ, followed by low-dose (25 mg/kg) and high-dose (75 mg/kg) 6-G intervention. For an in vitro DCM model, H9c2 rat cardiomyoblast cells were stimulated with high glucose (glucose = 33 mM) and palmitic acid (100 μM) and then treated with 6-G (100 μM). Histological and echocardiographic analyses were used to assess the effect of 6-G on cardiac structure and function in DCM. Western blotting, ELISA, and real-time qPCR were used to assess the expression of ferroptosis, inflammation, and the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway-related proteins and RNAs. Protein expression of collagen I and collagen III was assessed by immunohistochemistry, and kits were used to assay SOD, MDA, and iron levels. RESULTS The results showed that 6-G decreased cardiac injury in both mouse and cell models of DCM. The cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and interstitial fibrosis were attenuated by 6-G treatment in vivo and resulted in an improved heart function. 6-G inhibited the expression of ferroptosis-related protein FACL4 and the content of iron and enhanced the expression of anti-ferroptosis-related protein GPX4. In addition, 6-G also diminished the secretion of inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. 6-G treatment activated the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, enhanced antioxidative stress capacity proved by increased activity of SOD, and decreased MDA production. Compared with in vivo, 6-G treatment of H9c2 cells treated with high glucose and palmitic acid could produce a similar effect. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that 6-G could protect against DCM by the mechanism of ferroptosis inhibition and inflammation reduction via enhancing the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic cardiomyopathy, secondary to diabetes, is the main cause of death in patients with diabetes. In China, traditional Chinese medicine has achieved good performance in treating diabetic cardiomyopathy. However, to date, no systematic review or meta-analysis has been published on the treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy by traditional Chinese medicine. METHODS This study strictly followed the preferred guidelines for systematic review. Two researchers searched seven databases: EMbase, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Scientific Journal Database, and WANFANG Database. The retrieval time limit ranged from the establishment of the database to August 2022. All clinical randomized controlled trials that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in this study. Statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3. RESULTS This study analyzed the clinical efficacy and safety of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy. CONCLUSION The results of this study provide evidence-based medical evidence for the clinical use of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of diabetic heart disease in the future.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the primary cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetic cardiovascular complications, which initially manifests as cardiac hypertrophy, myocardial fibrosis, dysfunctional remodeling, and diastolic dysfunction, followed by systolic dysfunction, and eventually end with acute heart failure. Molecular mechanisms underlying these pathological changes in diabetic hearts are complicated and multifactorial, including but not limited to insulin resistance, oxidative stress, lipotoxicity, cardiomyocytes apoptosis or autophagy, inflammatory response, and myocardial metabolic dysfunction. With the development of molecular biology technology, accumulating evidence illustrates that members of the class O of Forkhead box (FoxO) transcription factors are vital for maintaining cardiomyocyte metabolism and cell survival, and the functions of the FoxO family proteins can be modulated by a wide variety of post-translational modifications including phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, arginine methylation, and O-glycosylation. In this review, we highlight and summarize the most recent advances in two members of the FoxO family (predominately FoxO1 and FoxO3a) that are abundantly expressed in cardiac tissue and whose levels of gene and protein expressions change as DCM progresses, with the goal of providing valuable insights into the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiovascular complications and discussing their therapeutic potential and possible effects of salvianolic acids, a natural product.

Abstract
Diabetes is well established as a chronic disease with a high health burden due to mortality or morbidity from the final outcomes of vascular complications. An increased duration of hyperglycemia is associated with abnormal metabolism. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are nonenzymatic glycated forms of free amino acids that lead to abnormal crosslinking of extra-cellular and intracellular proteins by disrupting the normal structure. Furthermore, the interaction of AGEs and their receptors induces several pathways by promoting oxidative stress and inflammation. In this review, we discuss the role of AGEs in diabetic vascular complications, especially type 2 DM, based on recent clinical studies.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is defined as the presence in diabetic patients of abnormal cardiac structure and performance (such as left ventricular hypertrophy, fibrosis, and arrhythmia) in the absence of other cardiac risk factors (such as hypertension or coronary artery disease). Although the pathogenesis of DCM remains unclear currently, mitochondrial structural and functional dysfunctions are recognised as a central player in the DCM development. In this review, we focus on the role of mitochondrial dynamics, biogenesis and mitophagy, Ca2+ metabolism and bioenergetics in the DCM development and progression. Based on the crucial role of mitochondria in DCM, application of mitochondria-targeting therapies could be effective strategies to slow down the progression of the disease.

Abstract
Sepsis is a condition of severe organ failure caused by the maladaptive response of the host to an infection. It is a severe complication affecting critically ill patients, which can progress to severe sepsis, septic shock, and ultimately death. As a vital part of the human innate immune system, neutrophils are essential in resisting pathogen invasion, infection, and immune surveillance. Neutrophil-produced reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a pivotal role in organ dysfunction related to sepsis. In recent years, ROS have received a lot of attention as a major cause of sepsis, which can progress to severe sepsis and septic shock. This paper reviews the existing knowledge on the production mechanism of neutrophil ROS in human organ function impairment because of sepsis.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a common systematic chronic disease amongst dental patients. The elevated glucose microenvironment can prolong the healing of tooth extraction sockets. Therefore, the promotion of healing up tooth extraction sockets is of great clinical importance to the patients with diabetes mellitus. The current evidence indicates the mechanism of the recovery period of extraction sockets in hyperglycaemia conditions from physiological, inflammation, immune, endocrine and neural aspects. New advancements have been made in varied curative approaches and drugs in the management of wound healing of tooth extraction sockets in diabetes. However, most of the interventions are still in the stage of animal experiments, and whether it can be put into clinical application still needs further explorations. Specifically, our work showed topical administration of plasma-rich growth factor, advanced platelet-rich fibrin, leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin and hyaluronic acid as well as maxillary immediate complete denture is regarded as a promising approach for clinical management of diabetic patients requiring extractions. Overall, recent studies present a blueprint for new advances in novel and effective approaches for this worldwide health ailment and tooth extraction sockets healing.
