BACKGROUND: This study is aimed at investigating whether relaxin-3 exhibits protective effects against cardiomyopathy in diabetic rats by suppressing ERS.
METHODS: Eighty male SD rats were randomly divided into two groups: controls (n = 20) and diabetes (n = 60). The streptozotocin-treated rats were randomly divided into three groups: diabetic group (DM), low-dose relaxin-3 group (0.2 μg/kg/d), and high-dose relaxin-3 group (2 μg/kg/d). The myocardial tissues and collagen fiber were observed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Masson staining. Serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), troponin (TNI), myoglobin, interleukin (IL-17), interleukin (IL)-1α, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were determined by ELISA. The protein expression of glucose regulatory protein 78 (GRP78) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) in the heart tissue of each group was detected by Western blot analysis.
RESULTS: (1) HE and Masson staining indicated that relaxin-3 could attenuate myocardial lesions and myocardial collagen volume fraction. (2) BNP, TnI, and myoglobin in the DM group at four and eight weeks were significantly higher than in the controls (P < 0.01). The relaxin-3-treated groups showed significantly reduced serum BNP, TnI, and myoglobin levels compared with the DM group (P < 0.05). (3) IL-17, IL-1α, and TNF-α levels in the DM rats at 4 weeks were higher than in the controls (P < 0.05). Low or high dose of relaxin-3-treated groups showed reduced serum IL-17 and TNF-α levels compared with the DM group at four and eight weeks (P < 0.05). (4) CHOP and GRP78 protein expression was increased in the DM group at four and eight weeks compared with the controls (P < 0.01), and small and large doses of relaxin-3 significantly reduced GRP78 and CHOP protein expression.
CONCLUSIONS: Exogenous relaxin-3 ameliorates diabetic cardiomyopathy by inhibiting ERS in diabetic rats.
