SIRT5-related lysine demalonylation of GSTP1 contributes to cardiomyocyte pyroptosis suppression in diabetic cardiomyopathy. Int J Biol Sci 2024; 20:585-605. [PMID: 38169591 PMCID: PMC10758093 DOI: 10.7150/ijbs.83306] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Sirtuin 5 (SIRT5), localized in the mitochondria, has been identified as a protein desuccinylase and demalonylase in the mitochondria since the depletion of SIRT5 boosted the global succinylation and malonylation of mitochondrial proteins. We investigated the role of SIRT5 in diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) and identified the mechanism regarding lysine demalonylation in this process. Wild-type and SIRT5 knockout mice were induced with DCM, and primary cardiomyocytes and cardiac fibroblasts extracted from wild-type and SIRT5 knockout mice were subjected to high glucose (HG). SIRT5 deficiency exacerbated myocardial injury in DCM mice, aggravated HG-induced oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in cardiomyocytes, and intensified cardiomyocyte senescence, pyroptosis, and DNA damage. DCM-induced SIRT5 loss diminished glutathione S-transferase P (GSTP1) protein stability, represented by significantly increased lysine malonylation (Mal-Lys) modification of GSTP1. SIRT5 overexpression alleviated DCM-related myocardial injury, which was reversed by GSTP1 knockdown. Reduced SIRT5 transcription in DCM resulted from the downregulation of SPI1. SPI1 promoted the transcription of SIRT5, thereby ameliorating DCM-associated myocardial injury. However, SIRT5 deletion resulted in a significant reversal of the protective effect of SPI1. These observations suggest that SPI1 activates SIRT5 transcriptionally to mediate GSTP1 Mal-Lys modification and protein stability, thus ameliorating DCM-associated myocardial injury.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a metabolic disease and a leading cause of heart failure among people with diabetes. Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a versatile technique capable of combining the molecular specificity of mass spectrometry (MS) with the spatial information of imaging. In this study, we used MSI to visualize metabolites in the rat heart with high spatial resolution and sensitivity. We optimized the air flow-assisted desorption electrospray ionization (AFADESI)-MSI platform to detect a wide range of metabolites, and then used matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI)-MSI for increasing metabolic coverage and improving localization resolution. AFADESI-MSI detected 214 and 149 metabolites in positive and negative analyses of rat heart sections, respectively, while MALDI-MSI detected 61 metabolites in negative analysis. Our study revealed the heterogenous metabolic profile of the heart in a DCM model, with over 105 region-specific changes in the levels of a wide range of metabolite classes, including carbohydrates, amino acids, nucleotides, and their derivatives, fatty acids, glycerol phospholipids, carnitines, and metal ions. The repeated oral administration of ferulic acid during 20 weeks significantly improved most of the metabolic disorders in the DCM model. Our findings provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying DCM and the potential of ferulic acid as a therapeutic agent for treating this condition.

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
Due to their different biological functions, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have great potential from a therapeutic point of view. They are released by all cell types, carrying and delivering different kinds of biologically functional cargo. Under pathological events, cells can increase their secretion of EVs and can release different amounts of cargo, thus making EVs great biomarkers as indicators of pathological progression. Moreover, EVs are also known to be able to transport and deliver cargo to different recipient cells, having an important role in cellular communication. Interestingly, EVs have recently been explored as biological alternatives for the delivery of therapeutics, being considered natural drug delivery carriers. Because cardiovascular disorders (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide, in this review, we will discuss the up-to-date knowledge regarding the biophysical properties and biological components of EVs, focusing on myocardial infarction, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy, three very different types of CVDs.

Abstract
Two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2DSTE) detects myocardial dysfunction despite a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has become a promising biomarker of cardiovascular risk. This study aimed to determine whether FGF23 may be used as a marker of myocardial damage among patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) and no previous history of myocardial infarction. The study enrolled 71 patients with a median age of 70 years. Laboratory data were analyzed retrospectively. Serum FGF23 levels were determined using a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. All patients underwent conventional echocardiography and 2DSTE. Baseline characteristics indicated that the median time elapsed since diagnosis with T2DM was 19 years. All subjects were divided into two groups according to left ventricular diastolic function. Individuals with confirmed left ventricular diastolic dysfunction had significantly lower levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate and higher values of hemoglobin A1c. Global circumferential strain (GCS) was reduced in the majority of patients. Only an epicardial GCS correlated significantly with the FGF23 concentration in all patients. The study indicates that a cardiac strain is a reliable tool for a subtle myocardial damage assessment. It is possible that FGF23 may become an early diagnostic marker of myocardial damage in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Targeting autophagy is a new therapeutic strategy for the complications of diabetes,such as diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). During diabetes, increased or insufficient autophagic activity causes aberrations in cellular homeostasis. Regarding the conflicting and unclear results regarding the effect of HIIT and curcumin supplementation on the expression of genes associated to autophagy, this study aimed to assess whether 4-week high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and curcumin supplementation are able to influence the expression of autophagy-related genes in myocardial cells of diabetic rats. METHODS In an experimental design, 24 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: non-diabetic control (NC), diabetic control (DC), diabetes + HIIT (D + HIIT), and diabetes + curcumin (D + CU). After HIIT program and curcumin treatment, the genes expression of autophagy pathway were assessed in the myocardium by real-time PCR Tanique. RESULTS The results indicated that the expression levels of ATG1, Beclin1, ATG5, and LAMP-2 genes were significantly reduced in the DC group compared to the NC group (p < 0.001). Following 4-week HIIT, the expression of Beclin1, ATG-5, and LAMP-2 improved considerably compared to the DC group (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, and p < 0.05, respectively). In addition, after 4 weeks of curcumin supplementation, the expression levels of ATG-5 and Beclin-1 were significantly improved compared to the DC group (p < 0.001, p < 0.05, respectively). It seems HIIT and curcumin supplementation can be an effective approach for inducing autophagy and improving cardiac function in DCM rats.However, HIIT seems more effective than curcumin in this regard.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a global healthcare burden and a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) appears to be one of the major risk factors that significantly worsen HF prognosis and increase the risk of fatal cardiovascular outcomes. Despite a great knowledge of pathophysiological mechanisms involved in HF development and progression, hospitalization rates in patients with HF and concomitant T2DM remain elevated. In this review, we discuss the complex interplay between systemic neurohumoral regulation and local cardiac mechanisms participating in myocardial remodeling and HF development in T2DM with special attention to cardiomyocyte energy metabolism, mitochondrial function and calcium metabolism, cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and death, extracellular matrix remodeling.

Abstract
Diabetes-related health issues are increasing day by day in public, and diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one serious issue among them. There is a lack of proper strategy to control and manage DCM. Here we are attempting a nutraceutical-based approach to protect the heart from DCM. The beneficial effect of cinnamic acid (CiA), was evaluated in an experimental model of diabetes. For this, diabetic model was created by feeding male Wistar rats with a high fat, high fructose diet for 6 months and a single dose of streptozotocin (25 mg/kg bwt). Metformin was used as the positive control. The diabetic rats showed insulin resistance, myocardial injury, and a significant increase of total cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL. Development of DCM was evident from the increased cardiac mass index, LDH, CKMB, ANP, and CRP levels in the diabetic group. There was a significant increase in the levels of cardiac hypertrophy markers like TGF-β and β-MHC in the hearts of diabetic rats revealing DCM. Pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6) and lipid peroxides were significantly elevated in the serum of diabetic rats. Histopathology revealed inflammation and necrosis in the heart of diabetic rats confirming DCM. Oral administration of CiA (5 and 10 mg/kg bwt) prevented the development of DCM via its cardioprotective, anti-inflammatory, anti-dyslipidemia potential, and antidiabetic properties. Similarly, metformin (50 mg/kg bwt) has also shown protection against DCM. We conclude from this study that CiA is found to be beneficial against DCM and recommend more detailed preclinical and clinical studies to develop CiA-based nutraceutical against DCM.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the most essential cardiovascular complications in diabetic patients associated with glucose and lipid metabolism disorder, fibrosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation in cardiomyocytes. Despite increasing research on the molecular pathogenesis of DCM, it is still unclear whether metabolic pathways and alterations are probably involved in the development of DCM. This study aims to characterize the metabolites of DCM and to identify the relationship between metabolites and their biological processes or biological states through untargeted metabolic profiling. UPLC-MS/MS was applied to profile plasma metabolites from 78 patients with diabetes (39 diabetes with DCM and 39 diabetes without DCM as controls). A total of 2,806 biochemical were detected. Compared to those of DM patients, 78 differential metabolites in the positive-ion mode were identified in DCM patients, including 33 up-regulated and 45 down-regulated metabolites; however, there were only six differential metabolites identified in the negative mode including four up-regulated and two down-regulated metabolites. Alterations of several serum metabolites, including lipids and lipid-like molecules, organic acids and derivatives, organic oxygen compounds, benzenoids, phenylpropanoids and polyketides, and organoheterocyclic compounds, were associated with the development of DCM. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that there were three signaling pathways (metabolic pathways, porphyrin, chlorophyll metabolism, and lysine degradation) that were changed in both negative- and positive-ion modes. Our results demonstrated that differential metabolites and lipids have specific effects on DCM. These results expanded our understanding of the metabolic characteristics of DCM and may provide a clue in the future investigation of reducing the incidence of DCM. Furthermore, the metabolites identified here may provide clues for clinical management and the development of effective drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are frequent in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Still, the PVCs characteristics as well as the outcomes after catheter ablation in this population remain unknown. Aim of the study was to describe principal features of PVCs ablated in a wide DM-patients cohort and report postablation clinical outcomes in the follow-up of patients with DM and left ventricular dysfunction. METHODS From April 2012 to April 2020 data of 544 patients (315 [58%] men, 55±16 y), consecutive patients submitted for PVC ablation, were prospectively collected. Patients with left ventricle (LV) systolic disfunction (LVEF<50%) were included in a prospective protocol and followed at 6 and 12 months, and annually thereafter. Baseline characteristic as well ablation outcomes were analyzed based on the presence of DM. RESULTS Sixty (11%) patients had DM. Patients with DM more frequently had a PVC's site of origin (SOO) in the LV (45 [75%] vs. 229 [48%], P<0.001). The most frequent PVC's SOO in DM patients was the LV outflow tract (OT) (35 [58%] patients: 12 aortic cusps; 12 LV summit; 11 in the myocardium immediately inferior to the valvular plane). Fifty-five (92%) patients with DM had an acute successful ablation, without differences compared with patients without DM (55 [92%] vs. 437 [90%], P=0.9). Twenty-tree (38%) DM-patients had LV dysfunction at the ablation time. In these patients, mean PVC burden decreased from 26±11% at baseline to 4±5% (P<0.001); LVEF increased from 36±8% to 42±11% (P<0.01) and NYHA class improved from 2.2±0.6 to 1.8+0.5 (P<0.01), after a mean follow-up of 37±14 months. CONCLUSIONS Patients with DM frequently have PVC with a LV-SOO, being the LVOT the most frequent SOO in this population. Among DM patients with LV dysfunction, ablation persistently and significantly reduce the PVC burden improving functional status. Patients with DM have lower benefit in terms of LV function recovery after ablation compared with non-diabetic patients.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a pathophysiological condition of cardiac structure and function changes in diabetic patients without coronary artery disease, hypertension, and other types of heart diseases. DCM is not uncommon in people with diabetes, which increases the risk of heart failure. However, the treatment is scarce, and the prognosis is poor. Since 1972, one clinical study after another on DCM has been conducted. However, the complex phenotype of DCM still has not been fully revealed. This dilemma hinders the pace of understanding the essence of DCM and makes it difficult to carry out penetrating clinical or basic research. This review summarizes the literature on DCM over the last 40 years and discusses the overall perspective of DCM, phase of progression, potential clinical indicators, diagnostic and screening criteria, and related randomized controlled trials to understand DCM better.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most serious systemic diseases worldwide, and the majority of DM patients face severe complications. However, many of underlying disease mechanisms related to these complications are difficult to understand with the use of currently available animal models. With the urgent need to fundamentally understand DM pathology, a variety of 3D biomimetic platforms have been generated by the convergence of biofabrication and tissue engineering strategies for the potent drug screening platform of pre-clinical research. Here, we suggest key requirements for the fabrication of physiomimetic tissue models in terms of recapitulating the cellular organization, creating native 3D microenvironmental niches for targeted tissue using biomaterials, and applying biofabrication technologies to implement tissue-specific geometries. We also provide an overview of various in vitro DM models, from a cellular level to complex living systems, which have been developed using various bioengineering approaches. Moreover, we aim to discuss the roadblocks facing in vitro tissue models and end with an outlook for future DM research.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is considered a 21st century pandemic and is often associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of this integrative review was to analyze the cardioprotective effects of phosdodiesterase-5 (PDE5i) inhibitors in experimental diabetes models. The articles were selected from the PubMed, SciElo and LILACS databases from 2014 to 2019. The following descriptors were used in combination with the Boolean operators: Diabetes mellitus experimental AND Phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors; Diabetic cardiomyopathies AND Phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors. An initial sample of 155 articles was obtained, of which six met the criteria for the synthesis of the review. The studies analyzed showed that treatment with PDE5i in experimental models, resulted in positive effects on cardiac function and metabolic parameters. Similar results have also been seen in humans. The reduction in cardiac hypertrophy, apoptosis of cardiomyocytes, pro-inflammatory factors and oxidative stress and the modulation of transcription factors involved in diabetes homeostasis, were prevalent among studies. The mechanisms of action involved in cardioprotection have not yet been fully elucidated, however the restoration of the activated cyclic guanosine monofate (cGMP) pathway by soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) via nitric oxide (NO) was a common mechanism among the studies.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Abnormalities in Ca2+ signaling have a key role in hemodynamic dysfunction in diabetic heart. The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes on Ca2+ signaling in epicardial (EPI) and endocardial (ENDO) cells of the left ventricle after 5-6 months of STZ injection. MATERIALS AND METHODS Whole-cell patch clamp was used to measure the L-type Ca2+ channel (LTCC) and Na+ /Ca2+ exchanger currents. Fluorescence photometry techniques were used to measure intracellular free Ca2+ concentration. RESULTS Although the LTCC current was not significantly altered, the amplitude of Ca2+ transients increased significantly in EPI-STZ and ENDO-STZ compared with controls. Time to peak LTCC current, time to peak Ca2+ transient, time to half decay of LTCC current and time to half decay of Ca2+ transients were not significantly changed in EPI-STZ and ENDO-STZ myocytes compared with controls. The Na+ /Ca2+ exchanger current was significantly smaller in EPI-STZ and in ENDO-STZ compared with controls. CONCLUSIONS STZ-induced diabetes resulted in an increase in amplitude of Ca2+ transients in EPI and ENDO myocytes that was independent of the LTCC current. Such an effect can be attributed, at least in part, to the dysfunction of the Na+ /Ca2+ exchanger. Additional studies are warranted to improve our understanding of the regional impact of diabetes on Ca2+ signaling, which will facilitate the discovery of new targeted treatments for diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
The current study aimed to explore the effects of microRNA (miR)-145 on the inflammatory response and oxidative stress (OS) in high glucose (HG)-induced cardiomyocytes, as well as the specific mechanism underlying this action. H9c2 cells were treated with 33 mmol/l glucose (HG group) or cotreated with 24.5 mmol/l mannitol and 5.5 mmol/l glucose (hypertonic group), and the expression levels of miR-145 and ADP ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) were detected. The cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1-ARF6, miR-145 mimics or corresponding negative controls prior to the assessment of cell survival rate. Levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA), as well as the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and the levels of IL-6, TNF-α and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) were subsequently determined. The apoptotic rate of H9c2 cells was examined by flow cytometry. The interaction between miR-145-ARF6 was predicted and confirmed by luciferase reporter assays. In the HG group, miR-145 expression was significantly decreased and ARF6 expression significantly increased compared with controls. Furthermore, the levels of inflammatory factors (IL-6, TNF-α and MCP-1), LDH, ROS and MDA were significantly elevated in the HG group compared with controls. Significantly decreased SOD, CAT and GPx activities and significantly increased numbers of apoptotic cells were observed in the HG group compared with controls. The cells transfected with miR-145 mimics exhibited significantly decreased LDH, ROS and MDA levels, significantly increased antioxidant enzyme activities and significantly decreased apoptotic rates compared with controls, while the opposite results were observed in cells transfected with pcDNA3.1-ARF6. Moreover, co-transfection with miR-145 mimics and pcDNA3.1-ARF6 exacerbated the inflammatory response and OS injury in HG-induced cardiomyocytes compared with cells transfected with miR-145 mimics alone. Furthermore, miR-145 negatively targeted ARF6. miR-145 attenuated the HG-induced inflammatory response and OS injury in cardiomyocytes by negatively regulating ARF6, which may contribute to providing a theoretical basis for the treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Purpose In this study, we investigated the protective effects and mechanism of action of echinacoside (ECH) from cistanche tubulosa extract in cardiomyocytes of db/db diabetic mice. Methods Twenty healthy male db/db mice aged 8 weeks were randomly divided into db/db+ECH (n=10, ECH, 300 mg/(kg/d)), db/db (n=10, saline), and db/m control groups (n=9). Mice were monitored weekly for diet and activity. Mice were injected with 2% of pentobarbital sodium in week 10 and executed. Weight and free blood glucose (FBG) were measured weekly. Echocardiographs were used to detect cardiac function. HE staining, Sudan II staining, Masson’s trichrome staining and Tunel assays were used to evaluate myocardial tissue pathological changes, collagen fiber deposition, lipid accumulation and apoptosis rates in cardiomyocytes, respectively. Western blot and RT-PCR analysis were used to detect the expression of components of the PPAR-α/M-CPT-1 and p53/p38MAPK signaling axis. Results Compared to db/db mice, ECH groups showed lower blood glucose and lipid levels. Deterioration in cardiac function was also delayed following ECH treatment. Histopathological analysis showed that ECH significantly improved myocardial tissue in db/db mice, including reduced intercellular spaces, regular arrangements, improved extracellular matrix deposition, and reduced lipid accumulation. ECH also significantly reduced oxidative stress levels in myocardial tissue in db/db mice. Moreover, ECH inhibited PPAR-α/M-CPT-1 signaling, downregulated CD36, and upregulated glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT-4) expression in db/db mouse models of DCM. ECH also inhibited p53/p38MAPK signaling, downregulated caspase-3 and caspase-8, and upregulated Bcl-2/Bax in db/db mouse models of DCM. Conclusion ECH displays protective effects in DCM, including the inhibition of cardiac apoptosis and oxidative stress, and improved lipid metabolism in cardiomyocytes. ECH also inhibits cardiac apoptosis through its regulation of p53/p38MAPK signaling, and prevents lipid accumulation through suppression of the PPAR-α/M-CPT-1 signaling axis.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is an outcome of disturbances in metabolic activities through oxidative stress, local inflammation, and fibrosis, as well as a prime cause of fatality worldwide. Cardiovascular disorders in diabetic individuals have become a challenge in diagnosis and formulation of treatment prototype. It is necessary to have a better understanding of cellular pathophysiology that reveal the therapeutic targets and prevent the progression of cardiovascular diseases due to hyperglycemia. Critical changes in levels of collagen and integrin have been observed in the extracellular matrix of heart, which was responsible for cardiac remodeling in diabetic patients. This review explored the understanding of the mechanisms of how the phytochemicals provide cardioprotection under diabetes along with the caveats and provide future perspectives on these agents as prototypes for the development of drugs for managing DCM. Thus, here we summarized the effect of various plant extracts and natural polyphenols tested in preclinical and cell culture models of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Further, the potential use of selected polyphenols that improved the therapeutic efficacy against diabetic cardiomyopathy is also illustrated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Having in mind that diabetes mellitus (DM) and obesity are some of the greatest health challenges of the modern era, diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is becoming more and more recognized in clinical practice. Main Text: Initially, DM is asymptomatic, but it may progress to diastolic and then systolic left ventricular dysfunction, which results in congestive heart failure. A basic feature of this DM complication is the absence of hemodynamically significant stenosis of the coronary blood vessels. Clinical manifestations are the result of several metabolic disorders that are present during DM progression. The complexity of metabolic processes, along with numerous regulatory mechanisms, has been the subject of research that aims at discovering new diagnostic (e.g. myocardial strain with echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance) and treatment options. Adequate glycaemic control is not sufficient to prevent or reduce the progression of DCM. Contemporary hypoglycemic medications, such as sodium-glucose transport protein 2 inhibitors, significantly reduce the frequency of cardiovascular complications in patients with DM. Several studies have shown that, unlike the above-stated medications, thiazolidinediones and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors are associated with deterioration of heart failure. CONCLUSION Imaging procedures, especially myocardial strain with echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance, are useful to identify the early signs of DCM. Research and studies regarding new treatment options are still "in progress".

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To test whether phase analysis indices from SPECT-MPI for left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony (LVMD) are predictors of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) in long-standing diabetes mellitus (DM). METHODS A total of 136 DM patients with normal perfusion and left ventricular systolic functions were followed up for about two years and divided into two groups according to the presence and the absence of MACEs. RESULT Thirteen (9.5%) patients experienced MACEs during follow-up. Patients experiencing MACEs showed significantly higher phase standard deviation (PSD) and wider phase bandwidth (PBW) than those who did not. Moreover, both PSD and PBW showed significant correlations (r = 0.25 and 0.27; P < 0.05) with duration of DM. Logistic regression analysis revealed significant associations of DM duration, microvascular complications, and LVMD indices for predicting MACEs. Kaplan-Meier event-free survival analysis revealed significantly higher rate of MACEs (Logrank = 10.02; P = 0.001) in patients with high PSD and wide PBW. An overall fit model consisting of high-PSD and wide-PBW group was improved with the addition of microvascular complications (χ2 = 15.9; P = 0.03) and further by addition of DM duration of ≥ 15 years (χ2 = 24.3; P = 0.007) as variables. CONCLUSION LVMD indices are novel prognostic markers in diabetic patients with normal perfusion and left ventricular systolic functions and their increases in magnitudes with DM-duration and in the presence of microvascular complications.

Abstract
: Diabetes is a common metabolic disease that increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. It seems that the reduction of oxidative stress or increasing antioxidant levels improves diabetic cardiomyopathy. Antioxidant effects of immunomodulatory drug (IMODTM) and also beneficial influences of exercise on diabetic complications have been shown. The present study examined the effects of IMODTM and exercise on cardiac oxidative stress and antioxidants in diabetes. For this purpose, 64 rats were divided into 8 groups: control (C), exercise (E), IMODTM (20 mg/kg) (I), exercise plus IMODTM (E + I), diabetes (D), diabetic rats treated with exercise (D + E), diabetic rats treated with IMODTM (D + I), and diabetic rats treated with exercise plus IMODTM (D + E + I). Treatments with exercise and/or IMODTM were performed for 8 weeks. Type 1 diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 60 mg/kg streptozotocin. After the treatment period, all rats were anesthetized, and blood and heart samples were gathered for measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA) as an oxidative stress marker, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) as a cardiac injury marker, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) as well as glutathione peroxidase (GPx) as antioxidant enzymes. The present study, for the first time, showed that IMODTM alone or in combination with exercise had positive effects on alleviating hyperglycemia, MDA, and LDH along with elevation of antioxidant enzymes activities in type 1 diabetic rats.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a major cause of mortality/morbidity in diabetes mellitus patients. Although tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) shows therapeutic potential as an endogenous cardiovascular target, its effect on myocardial cells and mitochondria in DCM and the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we determined the involvement of BH4 deficiency in DCM and the therapeutic potential of BH4 supplementation in a rodent DCM model. We observed a decreased BH4:total biopterin ratio in heart and mitochondria accompanied by cardiac remodeling, lower cardiac contractility, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Prolonged BH4 supplementation improved cardiac function, corrected morphological abnormalities in cardiac muscle, and increased mitochondrial activity. Proteomics analysis revealed oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) as the BH4-targeted biological pathway in diabetic hearts as well as BH4-mediated rescue of down-regulated peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator 1-α (PGC-1α) signaling as a key modulator of OXPHOS and mitochondrial biogenesis. Mechanistically, BH4 bound to calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2) and activated downstream AMP-activated protein kinase/cAMP response element binding protein/PGC-1α signaling to rescue mitochondrial and cardiac dysfunction in DCM. These results suggest BH4 as a novel endogenous activator of CaMKK2.

Abstract
CD36 is a multiligand receptor contributing to glucose and lipid metabolism, immune response, inflammation, thrombosis, and fibrosis. A wide range of tissue expression includes cells sensitive to metabolic abnormalities associated with metabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus (DM), such as monocytes and macrophages, epithelial cells, adipocytes, hepatocytes, skeletal and cardiac myocytes, pancreatic β-cells, kidney glomeruli and tubules cells, pericytes and pigment epithelium cells of the retina, and Schwann cells. These features make CD36 an important component of the pathogenesis of DM and its complications, but also a promising target in the treatment of these disorders. The detrimental effects of CD36 signaling are mediated by the uptake of fatty acids and modified lipoproteins, deposition of lipids and their lipotoxicity, alterations in insulin response and the utilization of energy substrates, oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, and fibrosis leading to the progressive, often irreversible organ dysfunction. This review summarizes the extensive knowledge of the contribution of CD36 to DM and its complications, including nephropathy, retinopathy, peripheral neuropathy, and cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
To quantify the global and regional left ventricular (LV) myocardial strain in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) tissue-tracking techniques and to determine the ability of myocardial strain parameters to assessment the LV deformation. Our study included 98 adult T2DM patients (preserved LV ejection fraction [LVEF], 72; reduced LVEF, 26) and 35 healthy controls. Conventional LV function, volume-time curve parameters and LV remodeling index were measured using CMR. Global and regional LV myocardial strain parameters were measured using CMR tissue tracking and compared between the different sub-groups. Receiver operating characteristic analysis was used to assess the diagnostic accuracy. Regression analyses were conducted to determine the relationship between strain parameters and the LV remodeling index. The results show that global radial peak strain (PS) and circumferential PS were not significantly different between the preserved-LVEF group and control group (P > 0.05). However, longitudinal PS was significantly lower in the preserved-LVEF group than in the control group (P = 0.005). Multivariate linear and logistic regression analyses showed that global longitudinal PS was independently associated (β = 0.385, P < 0.001) with the LV remodeling index. In conclusion, early quantitative evaluation of cardiac deformation can be successfully performed using CMR tissue tracking in T2DM patients. In addition, global longitudinal PS can complement LVEF in the assessment of cardiac function.

Abstract
The mitochondrion, the ATP-producing center, is both physically and functionally associated with almost all other organelles in the cell. Mitochondrial-associated membranes (MAMs) are involved in a variety of biological processes, such as lipid exchange, protein transport, mitochondrial fission, mitophagy, and inflammation. Several inflammation-related diseases in the cardiovascular system involve several intracellular events including mitochondrial dysfunction as well as disruption of MAMs. Therefore, an in-depth exploration of the function of MAMs will be of great significance for us to understand the initiation, progression, and clinical complications of cardiovascular disease (CVD). In this review, we summarize the recent advances in our knowledge of MAM regulation and function in CVD-related cells. We discuss the potential roles of MAMs in activating inflammation to influence the development of CVD.

Diabetes mellitus and risk of new-onset and recurrent heart failure: a systematic review and meta-analysis. ESC Heart Fail 2020; 7:2146-2174. [PMID: 32725969 PMCID: PMC7524078 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.12782] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2019] [Revised: 04/17/2020] [Accepted: 04/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite mounting evidence of the positive relationship between diabetes mellitus (DM) and heart failure (HF), the entire context of the magnitude of risk for HF in relation to DM remains insufficiently understood. The principal reason is because new‐onset HF (HF occurring in participants without a history of HF) and recurrent HF (HF re‐occurring in patients with a history of HF) are not discriminated. This meta‐analysis aims to comprehensively and separately assess the risk of new‐onset and recurrent HF depending on the presence or absence of DM. We systematically searched cohort studies that examined the relationship between DM and new‐onset or recurrent HF using EMBASE and MEDLINE (from 1 Jan 1950 to 28 Jul 2019). The risk ratio (RR) for HF in individuals with DM compared with those without DM was pooled with a random‐effects model. Seventy‐four and 38 eligible studies presented data on RRs for new‐onset and recurrent HF, respectively. For new‐onset HF, the pooled RR [95% confidence interval (CI)] of 69 studies that examined HF as a whole [i.e. combining HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF)] was 2.14 (1.96–2.34). The large between‐study heterogeneity (I2 = 99.7%, P < 0.001) was significantly explained by mean age [pooled RR (95% CI) 2.60 (2.38–2.84) for mean age < 60 years vs. pooled RR (95% CI) 1.95 (1.79–2.13) for mean age ≥ 60 years] (P < 0.001). Pooled RRs (95% CI) of seven and eight studies, respectively, that separately examined HFpEF and HFrEF risk were 2.22 (2.02–2.43) for HFpEF and 2.73 (2.71–2.75) for HFrEF. The risk magnitudes between HFpEF and HFrEF were not significantly different in studies that examined both HFpEF and HFrEF risks (P = 0.86). For recurrent HF, pooled RR (95% CI) of the 38 studies was 1.39 (1.33–1.45). The large between‐study heterogeneity (I2 = 80.1%, P < 0.001) was significantly explained by the proportion of men [pooled RR (95% CI) 1.53 (1.40–1.68) for < 65% men vs. 1.32 (1.25–1.39) for ≥65% men (P = 0.01)] or the large pooled RR for studies of only participants with HFpEF [pooled RR (95% CI), 1.73 (1.32–2.26) (P = 0.002)]. Results indicate that DM is a significant risk factor for both new‐onset and recurrent HF. It is suggested that the risk magnitude is large for new‐onset HF especially in young populations and for recurrent HF especially in women or individuals with HFpEF. DM is associated with future HFpEF and HFrEF to the same extent.

Abstract
The global burden of diabetes has drastically increased over the past decades and in 2017 approximately 4 million deaths were caused by diabetes and cardiovascular complications. Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a common complication of diabetes with early manifestations of diastolic dysfunction and left ventricular hypertrophy with subsequent progression to systolic dysfunction and ultimately heart failure. An in vitro model accurately recapitulating key processes of diabetic cardiomyopathy would provide a useful tool for investigations of underlying disease mechanisms to further our understanding of the disease and thereby potentially advance treatment strategies for patients. With their proliferative capacity and differentiation potential, human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) represent an appealing cell source for such a model system and cardiomyocytes derived from induced pluripotent stem cells have been used to establish other cardiovascular related disease models. Here we review recently made advances and discuss challenges still to be overcome with regard to diabetic cardiomyopathy models, with a special focus on iPSC-based systems. Recent publications as well as preliminary data presented here demonstrate the feasibility of generating cardiomyocytes with a diabetic phenotype, displaying insulin resistance, impaired calcium handling and hypertrophy. However, capturing the full metabolic- and functional phenotype of the diabetic cardiomyocyte remains to be accomplished.

Abstract
Aims: Regarding the fact that up-regulation of miR-195 in diabetic hearts has a potential role in diabetic cardiomyopathy, the present study investigated whether continuous endurance training (CET) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) reduces miR-195 expression and which exercise is effective in this regard.Methods: Diabetes was induced by high-fat high-fructose diet (HFHFD). Then, the rats were sub-divided into three categories; sedentary (HFHFD + SED), continuous endurance training (HFHFD + CET), and high-intensity interval training group (HFHFD + HIIT). After eight weeks of running, expression of miR-195 and myocardial function were evaluated.Results: HIIT effectively decreases the expression of miR-195 and increases the expression of Sirt1 and BCL-2 in diabetic rats compared with CET. Our results showed that HIIT compared with CET increases left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF%) and fractional shortening (FS%).Conclusions: Our results indicated that exercise, especially HIIT is an appropriate strategy for reducing miR-195 and improving myocardial function in diabetic rats compared with CET.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is an independent and specific cardiomyopathy, which is associated with cardiac failure in diabetic patients. Currently, the pathogenesis of DCM is a popular research topic in the investigation of cardiovascular diseases. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified as the latent therapeutic targets for DCM. However, the functions and complex mechanisms of miRNAs in DCM have not been clarified. The cardiomyocyte injury model was established using high glucose (HG) ingestion, and the DCM rat model was established using 30 mg/kg streptozotocin. MicroRNA-223 (miR-223) expression was determined using qRT-PCR; the levels of NLRP3 inflammasome, fibrosis, and apoptosis-related genes and proteins were analyzed using qRT-PCR and western blot assays. Besides the morphological changes and fibrosis of myocardial tissues were evaluated using H&E and Masson staining. We discovered that miR-223 was highly expressed in the HG-induced cardiomyocyte injury model, and miR-223 inhibitor could further relieve the myocardial fibrosis and apoptosis, and inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome of HG-induced H9c2 cells. Additionally, we found that inhibition of miR-223 had obvious positive effects on the cardiac dysfunction and reduced the elevation of blood sugar in the DCM model rats. We found that the miRNA-223 inhibitor could improve the morphological structure and the degree of fibrosis in myocardial tissues in the DCM model rats. Moreover, we verified that inhibition of miR-223 could suppress the NLRP3 inflammasome activation, and alleviate myocardial fibrosis and apoptosis of the DCM model rats. In conclusion, our results suggested that miR-223 might be an underlying therapeutic target for DCM by reducing NLRP3 inflammasome activation, fibrosis, and apoptosis.

Mitochondrial fusion promoter restores mitochondrial dynamics balance and ameliorates diabetic cardiomyopathy in an optic atrophy 1-dependent way. Acta Physiol (Oxf) 2020; 229:e13428. [PMID: 31840416 DOI: 10.1111/apha.13428] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2019] [Revised: 12/06/2019] [Accepted: 12/09/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
AIM Imbalanced mitochondrial dynamics including suppressed mitochondrial fusion has been observed in diabetic hearts. However, it is still unknown whether mitochondrial fusion promoter is an effective protection to diabetic hearts. This study was designed to explore the efficacy of mitochondrial fusion promoter on diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with streptozotocin (STZ, 65 mg/kg/d) intraperitoneally to induce diabetes. Seven weeks after vehicle or STZ injection, control or diabetic rats were treated with the vehicle or a mitochondrial fusion promoter-M1 (2 mg/kg/d) intraperitoneally for 6 weeks. Moreover, M1 was administrated to the primary cardiomyocytes cultured in normal glucose medium (NG, 5.5 mmol/L) or high glucose (HG, 33 mnol/L). RESULTS Administration of M1 significantly promoted mitochondrial fusion and attenuated the reduction in optic atrophy 1 (Opa1) expression in diabetic hearts. Importantly, M1 treatment attenuated oxidative stress, improved mitochondrial function and alleviated DCM in diabetic rats. In HG-treated cardiomyocytes, M1 treatment consistently increased the expression of Opa1, promoted mitochondrial fusion, enhanced mitochondrial respiratory capacity and reduced mitochondria-derived superoxide production, all of which were blunted by Opa1 siRNA knockdown. In addition, selective upregulation of Opa1 alone can also promote mitochondrial fusion, improve mitochondrial function and inhibit mitochondria-derived superoxide production in HG-cultured cardiomyocytes. CONCLUSION Our findings show for the first time that mitochondrial fusion promoter M1 effectively balances mitochondrial dynamics and protects against diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) via an Opa1-dependent way, suggesting that promoting mitochondrial fusion might be a potential therapeutic strategy for DCM.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder commonly characterized by high blood glucose levels, resulting from defects in insulin production or insulin resistance, or both. DM is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide, with diabetic cardiomyopathy as one of its main complications. It is well established that cardiovascular complications are common in both types of diabetes. Electrical and mechanical problems, resulting in cardiac contractile dysfunction, are considered as the major complications present in diabetic hearts. Inevitably, disturbances in the mechanism(s) of Ca2+ signaling in diabetes have implications for cardiac myocyte contraction. Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in outlining the mechanisms responsible for the diminished cardiac contractile function in diabetes using different animal models of type I diabetes mellitus (TIDM) and type II diabetes mellitus (TIIDM). The aim of this review is to evaluate our current understanding of the disturbances of Ca2+ transport and the role of main cardiac proteins involved in Ca2+ homeostasis in the diabetic rat ventricular cardiomyocytes. Exploring the molecular mechanism(s) of altered Ca2+ signaling in diabetes will provide an insight for the identification of novel therapeutic approaches to improve the heart function in diabetic patients.

Protective effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 on cardiac remodeling by inhibiting oxidative stress through mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1/p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase pathway in diabetes mellitus. J Diabetes Investig 2020; 11:39-51. [PMID: 31199578 PMCID: PMC6944832 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.13098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2018] [Revised: 05/16/2019] [Accepted: 06/06/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Although increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation is a major mechanism leading to cardiac remodeling in diabetes mellitus, research into the effects of anti-oxidation on diabetic cardiac remodeling remains scarce and controversial. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) shows potential anti-oxidative effects besides lowering blood glucose. The objective of this research was to investigate the effects of GLP-1 on cardiac remodeling and the molecular mechanism involved in diabetes mellitus. MATERIALS AND METHODS Streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats received exenatide treatment for 3 months. Cardiac function, cardiac weight index and myocardial interstitial fibrosis were measured. Cardiomyocytes were cultured in high-glucose medium with GLP-1 treatment. The ROS production, apoptosis and the levels of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1/p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase protein expression in cardiomyocytes were analyzed. RESULTS Experimental diabetes mellitus showed impaired cardiac diastolic function, increased brain natriuretic peptide expression and increased interstitial collagen deposition in the myocardium, which were ameliorated by exenatide treatment. Exenatide reduced myocardial ROS production and apoptosis in diabetes mellitus. Also, high glucose-induced ROS generation and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes were inhibited by GLP-1, as well as the levels of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1/p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase phosphorylation. Furthermore, GLP-1 treatment upregulated adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase activity in high-glucose-induced cardiomyocyte. CONCLUSIONS Glucagon-like peptide-1 protects the cardiomyocytes from oxidative stress and apoptosis in diabetes mellitus, which might contribute to the improvement of cardiac remodeling. The cardiac protection of GLP-1 might be dependent on inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1/p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase, through an adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase-mediated pathway.

Exogenous hydrogen sulfide protects against high glucose-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress by inhibiting the STAT3/HIF-1α pathway in H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Exp Ther Med 2019; 18:3948-3958. [PMID: 31616516 PMCID: PMC6781810 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2019.8036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2018] [Accepted: 06/20/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), an endogenous gasotransmitter, possesses multiple physiological and pharmacological properties including anti-apoptotic, anti-oxidative stress and cardiac protective activities in diabetic cardiomyopathy. An increasing body of evidence has suggested that signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) has beneficial effects in the heart. However, the effect of diabetes on the phosphorylation or activation of cardiac STAT3 appears to be controversial. The present study was designed to investigate the precise function of the STAT3/hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) signaling pathway in high glucose (HG)-induced H9c2 cardiomyocyte injury and the function of the STAT3/HIF-1α pathway in the cardioprotective action of H2S. The results revealed that GYY4137 pretreatment substantially ameliorated the HG-induced decrease in cell viability and the increase in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release in H9c2 cells. Additionally, HG treatment resulted in the upregulation of the phosphorylated (p)-STAT3/STAT3 ratio and HIF-1α protein expression in H9c2 cells, indicating that the activation of the STAT3/HIF-1α pathway was induced by HG. STAT3/HIF-1α pathway inhibition induced by transfection with STAT3 small interfering (si)-RNA attenuated the HG-induced downregulation of cell viability and the upregulation of LDH release. Furthermore, STAT3 siRNA transfection and GYY4137 pretreatment combined attenuated HG-induced apoptosis as illustrated by the decrease in the number of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling-positive cells, caspase-3 activity, apoptosis ratio and BCL2 associated X, apoptosis regulator/BCL2 apoptosis regulator ratio in H9c2 cells. In addition, STAT3 siRNA transfection and GYY4137 blocked HG-induced oxidative stress as evidenced by the decrease in reactive oxygen species generation, malondialdehyde content and NADPH oxidase 2 expression, and the increase in superoxide dismutase activity and glutathione level. Notably, GYY4137 pretreatment was revealed to reduce the p-STAT3/STAT3 ratio and HIF-1α protein expression, resulting in the inhibition of the STAT3/HIF-1α signaling pathway in HG-treated H9c2 cells. Altogether, the present results demonstrated that H2S mitigates HG-induced H9c2 cell damage, and reduces apoptosis and oxidative stress by suppressing the STAT3/HIF-1α signaling pathway.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the protective effect and mechanism of Astragaloside IV (ASIV) on myocardial injury induced by type 2 diabetes, with a focus on energy metabolism. Blood glucose, the hemodynamic index, left ventricular weight/heart weight (LVW/HW), the left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), the left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and cell survival rate were measured in streptozotocin‑induced diabetes model rats. Western blot analysis, PCR, hematoxylin‑eosin and TUNEL staining, flow cytometry and ELISA were used to detect: i) Cardiomyocyte damage indicators such as atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), cytochrome c (Cyt C), caspase‑3, cleaved caspase‑3 and the apoptotic rate; ii) energy metabolism indicators such as ATP/AMP and ADP/AMP; and iii) energy metabolism associated pathway proteins such as peroxisome proliferator‑activated receptor γ coactivator 1‑α (PGC‑1α) and nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1). The present demonstrated increased blood glucose, LVW/HW, LVSP, LVEDP and the cardiomyocyte damage indicators (ANP, BNP, Cyt C and caspase‑3), in the diabetic and high glucose‑treated groups, which were decreased by ASIV. The expression of NRF‑1 and PGC‑1α significantly changed in the model group and was markedly improved following ASIV treatment. Furthermore, the abnormal energy metabolism in the model group was reversed by ASIV. According to the results, ASIV can regulate energy metabolism by regulating the release of PGC‑1α and NRF1 to rescue the abnormal energy metabolism caused by diabetes mellitus, thus decreasing the myocardial damage caused by diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Assessment of left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony (LVMD) using phase analysis of gated SPECT-MPI is well established. However, there is little information about the influence of diabetes mellitus on phase analysis. The present work was to evaluate the LVMD in longstanding type II diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with normal gated SPECT-MPI. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 146 (86 type II diabetics for > 5 years' duration and 60 nondiabetics) consecutive patients with normal gated SPECT-MPI and adequate LVEF was done. Sixty age- and sex-matched nondiabetic served as control. LVMD was determined from the cutoff values (> mean + 2 SD) observed for phase standard deviation (PSD) and phase bandwidth (PBW) from the control subjects. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to assess the correlation between various confounding factors. RESULTS LVMD was detected in 24 (28%) diabetic patients with the pre-defined cut-off values for PSD (> 10.8) and PBW (> 35.6) derived from the controls. Hyperlipidemia, overweight/obesity, duration of DM and its long-term complications were independently associated with LVMD, with long-term complications being the highest risk factor (OR 28.00; P < .001). CONCLUSION The evolution time of the patients with type II diabetes mellitus affects the left ventricular mechanical synchrony.

Abstract
In-depth understanding of early cardiovascular manifestations in diabetes is high on international research and prevention agendas given that cardiovascular events are the leading cause of death for diabetic patients. Our aim was to review recent developments in the echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) as a telltale pre-clinical disturbance preceding diabetic cardiomyopathy. We analyzed papers in which patients had been comprehensively assessed echocardiographically according to the latest LVDD guidelines (2016), and those affording comparisons with previous, widely used recommendations (2009). We found that the updated algorithm for LVDD is more effective in predicting adverse cardiovascular events in patients with established LVDD, and less specific in grading other patients (labelled "indeterminate"). This may prove instrumental for recruiting "indeterminate" LVDD cases among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in future screening programs. As an interesting consideration, the elevated values of the index E/e' can point to early diastolic impairment, foretelling diabetic cardiomyopathy. Identifying subclinical signs early makes clinical sense, but the complex nature of T2DM calls for further research. Specifically, longitudinal studies on rigorously selected cohorts of diabetic patients are needed to better understand and predict the subtle, slow onset of cardiac manifestations with T2DM as a complicating backdrop.

Abstract
The biological effects of endocannabinoid system are mediated by two types of receptors, cannabinoid 1 (CB1) and cannabinoid 2 receptor (CB2). They play a pivotal role in the management of pain, inflammation, cancer, obesity and diabetes mellitus. CB2 receptor activity downregulation is hallmark of inflammation and oxidative stress. Strong evidence display the relation between activation of CB2 receptors with decrease in the pro-inflammatory cytokines and pro-apoptotic factors. Numerous in vitro and in vivo studies have been validated to confirm the role of CB2 receptor in the management of obesity, hyperlipidemia and diabetes mellitus by regulating glucose and lipid metabolism. Activation of CB2 receptor has led to reduction of inflammatory cytokines; tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), Interleukin 6 (IL-6), Nuclear factor kappa beta (NF-κβ) and also amelioration of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species playing role in apoptosis. Many studies confirmed the role of CB2 receptors in the insulin secretion via facilitating calcium entry into the pancreatic β-cells. CB2 receptors also displayed improvement in the neuronal and renal functions by decreasing the oxidative stress and downregulating inflammatory cascade. The present review addresses, potential role of CB2 receptor activation in management of diabetes and its complications. It also includes the role of CB2 receptors as an anti-oxidant, anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory for the treatment of DM and its complications. Also, an informative summary of CB2 receptor agonist drugs is provided with their potential role in the reduction of glucose levels, increment in the insulin levels, decrease in the hyperglycaemic oxidative stress and inflammation.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the cardiovascular complications of diabetes
mellitus independent of hypertension, coronary disease, and other heart diseases. The
development of DCM is multifactorial and hard to detect at an early stage. Long non-coding
RNA metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (Malat1) is
emerging as a regulator of DCM, the underlying mechanism of its role in DCM has not been
elaborated yet. In this study, we established a mouse DCM model via streptozocin injection
as evidenced by cell hypertrophy and cell apoptosis of myocardial tissue, and found that
Malat1 expression was upregulated in the myocardium in DCM mice.
Meanwhile, elevated expression of pro-apoptotic factors p53, p21, cleaved caspase 3,
cleaved caspase 9 and BAX, and down-regulation of anti-apoptotic BCL-2 were observed in
DCM myocardium. We further investigated the effect of Malat1 on
cardiomyocytes under high glucose condition by silencing Malat1 with its
specific short-hairpin RNA. Like in vivo, expression of
Malat1 in cardiomyocytes was notably raised, remarkable cell apoptosis
and changes in apoptosis-related factors were also observed following high glucose
treatment. Besides, we validated that Malat1 acted as a sponge of
miR-181a-5p. Inhibition of miR-181a-5p could, at least partially, abolish
Malat1 knockdown-induced alteration in cardiomyocytes. In addition,
p53, a critical regulator of apoptosis, was validated to be a downstream target of
miR-181a-5p. In summary, our findings reveal that Malat1 knockdown
attenuates high glucose-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis via releasing miR-181a-5p, and
this mechanism may provide us with new diagnosis target of DCM.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a condition associated with significant structural changes including cardiac tissue necrosis, localized fibrosis, and hypertrophy of cardiomyocytes. This study sought to assess whether and how CDK4/6 inhibitor, Palbociclib, can attenuate DCM using a streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DCM model system. In this study, we found CDK4 and CDK6 expression are significantly increased the cardiac tissue of these mice. Palbociclib treatment after initial STZ administration attenuated oxidative stress and inflammation, thereby reducing cardiomyocyte death and preserving cardiac function in these animals. In addition, Rb phosphorylation induction was found in STZ-treated mice, which was inhibited by Palbociclib treatment. In summary, Palbociclib protects mice from damage associated with DCM pathway activation, making Palbociclib is a relevant therapeutic target in the context of DCM.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has antifibrotic activity in the kidneys, heart, lungs, and other organs. The present study investigated the protective activity of exogenous H2S against myocardial fibrosis in a rat model of diabetes. Animals were assigned to normal control, diabetes mellitus (DM), DM + sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS; DM + NaHS) and NaHS groups. Fasting blood glucose (FBG), cardiac function and hydroxyproline were monitored. Heart histomorphology and ultrastructure were additionally evaluated. Wnt1-inducible signaling pathway protein (WISP)-1 protein expression in the myocardium was determined by immunohistochemical staining. Matrix metalloprotease (MMP)-2, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-2, collagens, and canonical Wnt and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1/SMAD family member 3 (Smad3) pathway-related proteins were assessed by western blotting. Cardiac function was decreased, and myocardial injury, hypertrophy and fibrosis were increased in the diabetes model rats. MMP-2 expression was decreased, and the expressions of WISP-1, TIMP-2, collagens, and canonical Wnt and TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway-related proteins were increased in the myocardia of the diabetes model rats. The present results indicated that the canonical Wnt pathway promoted diabetic myocardial fibrosis by upregulating the TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway. Except for FBG, exogenous H2S ameliorated the changes in diabetes-associated indices in rats in the DM + NaHS group. The results are consistent with H2S protection of streptozotocin-induced myocardial fibrosis in the diabetes model rats by downregulation of the canonical Wnt and TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway and decreased myocardial collagen deposition.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia in diabetic patients would cause cardiomyocytes oxidative stress and apoptosis due to the excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, leading to progressive deterioration of cardiac structure and function. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play essential roles on controlling oxidative stress and apoptotic activity. In the present study, RNA sequencing was used to detect the differentially expressed lncRNAs during high glucose-induced cardiomyocytes oxidative stress and apoptosis. A total of 306/400 lncRNAs were identified as differentially expressed, including 156/198 lncRNAs with increased expression and 150/202 lncRNAs with decreased expression at 24 hours/48 hours after high-glucose stimulation respectively. Among these dysregulated lncRNAs, 45 lncRNAs were consistently differentially expressed in cardiomyocytes at both two time points after high-glucose stimulation. Twenty lncRNAs were upregulated and 25 lncRNAs were downregulated at both 24 hours and 48 hours, respectively. The top three upregulated lncRNAs, NONRATT029805.2, NONRATT007560.2, and NONRATT002486.2 were selected for functional studies to determine the role in oxidative stress-related apoptosis. The results showed that inhibition of non-ratt007560.2 could abate the formation of ROS and reduce apoptosis, suggesting NONRATT007560.2 might play critical roles in the development of cardiomyopathy. The dysregulated lncRNAs might participate in regulating cardiomyocytes oxidative stress and apoptosis. These findings would be important theoretical and experimental basis for investigation on diabetic cardiomyopathy pathogenesis.

Abstract
Diabetes is a major risk factor for heart disease. Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a long-lasting process that affects the myocardium in patients who have no other cardiac conditions. The condition has a complex physiopathology which can be subdivided into processes that cause diastolic and/or systolic dysfunction. It is believed to be more common than reported, but this has not been confirmed by a large study. Diagnosis can involve imaging; biomarkers cannot be used to identify diabetic cardiomyopathy at an early stage. In people with diabetes, there should be a focus on prevention and, if diabetic cardiomyopathy develops, the objective is to delay disease progression. Further studies into identifying and managing diabetic cardiomyopathy are essential to reduce the risk of heart failure in people with diabetes.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a common cardiac syndrome, whose pathophysiology involves complex mechanisms, some of which remain unknown. Diabetes mellitus (DM) constitutes not only a glucose metabolic disorder accompanied by insulin resistance but also a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and HF. During the last years though emerging data set up, a bidirectional interrelationship between these two entities. In the case of DM impaired calcium homeostasis, free fatty acid metabolism, redox state, and advance glycation end products may accelerate cardiac dysfunction. On the other hand, when HF exists, hypoperfusion of the liver and pancreas, b-blocker and diuretic treatment, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction may cause impairment of glucose metabolism. These molecular pathways may be used as therapeutic targets for novel antidiabetic agents. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) not only improve insulin resistance and glucose and lipid metabolism but also manifest a diversity of actions directly or indirectly associated with systolic or diastolic performance of left ventricle and symptoms of HF. Interestingly, they may beneficially affect remodeling of the left ventricle, fibrosis, and diastolic performance but they may cause impaired water handing, sodium retention, and decompensation of HF which should be taken into consideration in the management of patients with DM. In this review article, we present the pathophysiological data linking HF with DM and we focus on the molecular mechanisms of PPARs agonists in left ventricle systolic and diastolic performance providing useful insights in the molecular mechanism of this class of metabolically active regiments.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a condition associated with significant structural changes including cardiac tissue necrosis, localized fibrosis, and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. This study sought to assess whether and how FBXL10 can attenuate DCM using a rat streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced DCM model system. In the current study, we found that FBXL10 expression was significantly decreased in diabetic rat hearts. FBXL10 protected cells from high glucose (HG)‐induced inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in vitro. In addition, FBXL10 significantly activated PKC β2 signaling pathway in H9c2 cells and rat model. The cardiomyocyte‐specific overexpression of FBXL10 at 12 weeks after the initial STZ administration attenuated oxidative stress and inflammation, thereby reducing cardiomyocyte death and preserving cardiac function in these animals. Moreover, FBXL10 protected against DCM via activation of the PKC β2 pathway. In conclusion, FBXL has the therapeutic potential for the treatment of DCM.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. Previous studies have shown that the transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1)/Smad signaling pathway plays a key role in the development of myocardial fibrosis in DCM. Silymarin (SMN) is used clinically to treat liver disorders and acts by influencing TGF-β1. However, the possible effects of silymarin on DCM remain to be elucidated. In our study, the DM animal model was induced by streptozotocin (STZ) injection. Fasting blood glucose level was measured, and the structure and function of the heart were measured by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Masson staining, echocardiography, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Western blot was used to detect the expression of TGF-β1, Smad2/3, phosphorylation Smad2/3(p-Smad2/3), and Smad7. Our results showed that silymarin downregulated blood glucose level and significantly improved cardiac fibrosis and collagen deposition in DM rats detected by H&E, Masson staining, and TEM assays. The echocardiography results showed that silymarin administration attenuated cardiac dysfunction in DM rats. Additionally, compared with untreated DM rats, levels of TGF-β1 and p-Smad2/3 were decreased, whereas Smad7 was increased following silymarin administration. These data demonstrate that silymarin ameliorates DCM through the inhibition of TGF-β1/Smad signaling, suggesting that silymarin may be a potential target for DCM treatment.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) can cause extensive necrosis of the heart muscle by metabolic disorders and microangiopathy, with subclinical cardiac dysfunction, and eventually progress to heart failure, arrhythmia, and cardiogenic shock; severe patients may even die suddenly. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of nonprotein-coding RNAs longer than 200 nucleotides. They have critical roles in various biological processes, including gene expression regulation, genomic imprinting, nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking, RNA splicing, and translational control. Recent studies indicated that lncRNAs extensively participate in the development of diverse cardiac diseases, such as cardiac ischaemia, hypertrophy, and heart failure. Little is known about lncRNA in DCM. In this review, we summarize the current literature on lncRNAs in DCM studies, aiming to provide new methods for DCM's future prevention and treatment strategies.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus and the associated complications represent a global burden on human health and economics. Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in diabetic patients, who have a 2–5 times higher risk of developing heart failure than age-matched non-diabetic patients, independent of other comorbidities. Diabetic cardiomyopathy is defined as the presence of abnormal cardiac structure and performance in the absence of other cardiac risk factors, such coronary artery disease, hypertension, and significant valvular disease. Hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and insulin resistance mediate the pathological remodeling of the heart, characterized by left ventricle concentric hypertrophy and perivascular and interstitial fibrosis leading to diastolic dysfunction. A change in the metabolic status, impaired calcium homeostasis and energy production, increased inflammation and oxidative stress, as well as an accumulation of advanced glycation end products are among the mechanisms implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Despite a growing interest in the pathophysiology of diabetic cardiomyopathy, there are no specific guidelines for diagnosing patients or structuring a treatment strategy in clinical practice. Anti-hyperglycemic drugs are crucial in the management of diabetes by effectively reducing microvascular complications, preventing renal failure, retinopathy, and nerve damage. Interestingly, several drugs currently in use can improve cardiac health beyond their ability to control glycemia. GLP-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors have been shown to have a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system through a direct effect on myocardium, beyond their ability to lower blood glucose levels. In recent years, great improvements have been made toward the possibility of modulating the expression of specific cardiac genes or non-coding RNAs in vivo for therapeutic purpose, opening up the possibility to regulate the expression of key players in the development/progression of diabetic cardiomyopathy. This review summarizes the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy, with particular focus on structural and molecular abnormalities occurring during its progression, as well as both current and potential future therapies.

Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are endogenous RNA transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides which regulate epigenetically the expression of genes but do not have protein-coding potential. They are emerging as potential key regulators of diabetes mellitus and a variety of cardiovascular diseases. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) refers to diabetes mellitus-elicited structural and functional abnormalities of the myocardium, beyond that caused by ischemia or hypertension. The purpose of this review was to summarize current status of lncRNA research for DCM and discuss the challenges and possible strategies of lncRNA research for DCM. A systemic search was performed using PubMed and Google Scholar databases. Major conference proceedings of diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease occurring between January, 2014 to August, 2018 were also searched to identify unpublished studies that may be potentially eligible. The pathogenesis of DCM involves elevated oxidative stress, myocardial inflammation, apoptosis, and autophagy due to metabolic disturbances. Thousands of lncRNAs are aberrantly regulated in DCM. Manipulating the expression of specific lncRNAs, such as H19, metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1, and myocardial infarction-associated transcript, with genetic approaches regulates potently oxidative stress, myocardial inflammation, apoptosis, and autophagy and ameliorates DCM in experimental animals. The detail data regarding the regulation and function of individual lncRNAs in DCM are limited. However, lncRNAs have been considered as potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets for DCM. Overexpression of protective lncRNAs and knockdown of detrimental lncRNAs in the heart are crucial for defining the role and function of lncRNAs of interest in DCM, however, they are technically challenging due to the length, short life, and location of lncRNAs. Gene delivery vectors can provide exogenous sources of cardioprotective lncRNAs to ameliorate DCM, and CRISPR–Cas9 genome editing technology may be used to knockdown specific lncRNAs in DCM. In summary, current data indicate that LncRNAs are a vital regulator of DCM and act as the promising diagnostic and therapeutic targets for DCM.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases exist across all developed countries. Biomarkers that can predict or diagnose diseases early in their pathogeneses can reduce their morbidity and mortality in afflicted individuals. microRNAs are small regulatory RNAs that modulate translation and have been identified as potential fluid-based biomarkers across numerous maladies. We describe the current state of cardiovascular disease biomarkers across a range of diseases, including myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, myocarditis, hypertension, heart failure, heart transplantation, aortic stenosis, diabetic cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, and sepsis. We present the current understanding of microRNAs as possible biomarkers in these categories and where their best opportunities exist to enter clinical practice.

Abstract
Background Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in aging-related phenomenon, including skin aging and photoaging. This study investigated the protective role and possible mechanism of Terminalia catappa L. methanolic extract (TCE) in human fibroblasts (Hs68) against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced oxidative damage. Methods Various in vitro antioxidant assays were performed in this study. The effect and mechanisms of TCE on oxidative stress-induced oxidative damage were studied by using western blotting. Results The IC50 of TCE was 8.2 μg/mL for 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging, 20.7 μg/mL for superoxide anion radical scavenging, 173.0 μg/mL for H2O2 scavenging, 44.8 μg/mL for hydroxyl radical scavenging, and 427.6 μg/mL for ferrous chelation activities. Moreover, TCE inhibited the H2O2-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway, resulting in the inhibition of c-Jun, c-Fos, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1, MMP-3, MMP-9, and cyclooxygenase-2 expression. TCE also increased hemeoxygenase-1 expression inhibited by H2O2. Finally, TCE was demonstrated reverse type I procollagen expression in fibroblasts after H2O2 treatment. Conclusions According to our findings, TCE is a potent antioxidant and protective agent that can be used in antioxidative stress-induced skin aging.
