Therapeutic effects on the development of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction by the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor dapagliflozin in type 2 diabetes

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a common disease with high morbidity and lacks effective treatment. We investigated the protective effects of the long-term application of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) dapagliflozin on diabetes-associated HFpEF in a r...

Zusammenfassung:Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a common disease with high morbidity and lacks effective treatment. We investigated the protective effects of the long-term application of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) dapagliflozin on diabetes-associated HFpEF in a rat model. Serum proteomics and metabolomics analysis were also conducted in type 2 diabetic patients with HFpEF treated with dapagliflozin. Male Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats were used as a model of diabetic cardiomyopathy. From weeks 16 to 28, animals were given a vehicle or dapagliflozin (1 mg/kg) once daily. Primary blood biochemistry indices, echocardiography, histopathology, and cardiac hemodynamics were determined during the study period. The key markers of myocardial fibrosis, nitro-oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, autophagy, and AMPK/mTOR signaling were examined. Additionally, healthy controls and individuals with type 2 diabetes were enrolled and 16 serum samples from 4 groups were randomly selected. Serum proteome and metabolome changes after dapagliflozin treatment were analyzed in diabetic individuals with HFpEF. Dapagliflozin effectively prevented the development of HFpEF in rats with diabetes by mitigating nitro-oxidative stress, pro-inflammatory cytokines, myocardial hypertrophy, and fibrosis, reducing apoptosis, and restoring autophagy through AMPK activating and mTOR pathway repressing. Proteomics and metabolomics revealed that cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein particle metabolism, nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism, arginine biosynthesis, and cAMP and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling are the major disturbed pathways in HFpEF patients treated with dapagliflozin. Long-term treatment with dapagliflozin significantly prevented the development of HFpEF in diabetic rats. Dapagliflozin could be a promising therapeutic strategy in managing HFpEF individuals with type 2 diabetes.
