Sci Rep 2024; 14:18892. [PMID: 39143111 PMCID: PMC11324949 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-69062-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Hypertension is a very common comorbidity in type 2 diabetes patients, which leads to important health and treatment challenges. The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the prevalence of hypertension and its risk factors in type 2 diabetes patients. This study was conducted using cross-sectional data from 1245 participants aged between 35 and 70 years and diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at baseline in the Fasa cohort study. The prevalence hypertension was determined and multivariate logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between various risk factors and hypertension prevalence. The average age of the participants was 53.5 ± 8.7 years and 71.7% (n = 893) were female and 28.3% (n = 352) were male. The prevalence of hypertension in people with type 2 diabetes was 45.5% (n = 566). Higher age (AOR, 95% CI: 8.1, 4.6-14.3), female gender (OR, 95% CI: 1.8, 1.2-2.5), Fars (AOR, 95% CI: 1.6, 1.1-2.4) and Turk (AOR, 95% CI: 1.6, 1.1-2.5) vs. other ethnicity, and overweight (AOR, 95% CI: 1.8, 1.38-2.38) and obesity (AOR, 95% CI: 2.7, 2.0-3.8) vs. BMI < 25 was associated with a higher prevalence of hypertension, while higher physical activity (AOR, 95% CI: 0.57, 0.42-0.78) was associated with lower prevalence of hypertension in the multivariable model. The prevalence of hypertension in persons with type 2 diabetes was high and increased with greater age, in some ethnic groups, and with higher BMI and low physical activity. Further prospective studies are needed to investigate these associations in this population.

[PMID: 38318046 PMCID: PMC10838740 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e24562] [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: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 02/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Sustained myocardial injury due to hypertension and diabetes mellitus leads to production of endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) and insufficient myocardial antioxidant capacity, increasing the risk of cardiomyocyte ferroptosis. Ferroptosis is a nonapoptotic form of cell death driven by unrestricted lipid peroxidation. Dysfunction of the glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) antioxidant system also plays an important role in ferroptosis. Cardiomyocyte ferroptosis ultimately leads to myocardial deterioration, such as inflammation, fibrosis, and cardiac remodeling, resulting in structural and functional changes. Pterostilbene (PTS), a demethylated derivative of resveratrol, exhibits strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidative activities. In this study, we used in vitro experiments to explore ferroptosis induced by angiotensin II (Ang II) of primary cardiac myocytes (CMs) and in vivo experiments to prepare a transverse aortic constriction (TAC)-induced cardiac dysfunction mouse model. PTS can significantly ameliorate Ang II-induced cardiomyocyte ferroptosis in vitro and reduce cardiac remodeling, while improving cardiac function in mice after TAC in vivo. Further mechanistic investigations revealed that PTS exerts its protective effect through the SIRT1/GSK-3β/GPX4 pathway. After siRNA-mediated knockdown of SIRT1 or GPX4 in CMs, the protective effects of PTS on cardiomyocytes were abolished. This study provides important theoretical support for the potential of PTS to attenuate pathological cardiac remodeling and heart failure and provides a preliminary exploration of the molecular pathways involved in its protective mechanism.
