BACKGROUND: Many patients with diabetes die from diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM); however, effective strategies for the prevention or treatment of DCM have not yet been clarified.
METHODS: Leptin receptor-deficient (db/db) mice were treated with either the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitor AUDA or vehicle alone. A virus carrying Nrf2 shRNA was used to manipulate Nrf2 expression in db/db mice. Cardiac structures and functions were analyzed using echocardiography and hemodynamic examinations. Primary cardiomyocytes cultured under high glucose and high fat (HGHF) conditions were used to conduct in vitro loss-of-function assays after culture in the presence or absence of AUDA (1 μM). Fluorescence microscopy-based detection of mCherry-GFP-LC3 was performed to assess autophagic flux.
RESULTS: The sEH inhibitor AUDA significantly attenuated ventricular remodeling and ameliorated cardiac dysfunction in db/db mice. Interestingly, AUDA upregulated Nrf2 expression and promoted its nuclear translocation in db/db mice and the HGHF-treated cardiomyocytes. Additionally, AUDA increased autophagy and decreased apoptosis in db/db mice heart. Furthermore, the administration of AUDA promoted autophagic flux and elevated LC3-II protein level in the presence of bafilomycin A1. However, AUDA-induced autophagy was abolished, and the antiapoptotic effect was partially inhibited upon Nrf2 knockdown.
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that the sEH inhibitor AUDA attenuates cardiac remodeling and dysfunction in DCM via increasing autophagy and reducing apoptosis, which is relevant to activate Nrf2 signaling pathway.
