Nigericin Abrogates Maternal and Embryonic Oxidative Stress in the Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Pregnant Rats
Hyperglycemic exposure in diabetic pregnancy can lead to many developmental changes, such as delayed development, fetal malformations, and fetal/embryo death.

| description | Hyperglycemic exposure in diabetic pregnancy can lead to many developmental changes, such as delayed development, fetal malformations, and fetal/embryo death. These detrimental complications are collectively known as diabetic embryopathy or teratogenesis. The current study focuses to discover the therapeutic properties of the nigericin against the STZ-stimulated diabetic embryopathy via alleviation of maternal and embryonic oxidative stress. The male and female rats at a 1:1 ratio were permitted to mate overnight to establish the course of pregnancy. The pregnant rats were distributed into four groups control, diabetic pregnant (via administering 40 mg/kg of STZ), and diabetic + 10 and 20 mg/kg of nigericin-administered (via oral gavage from days 5 to 12) groups, respectively. The glucose level, urine output, diet intake, and body weight were determined carefully. The embryo and placenta weight and implantation rates were examined, and data were tabulated. The total protein and lipid profiles were assessed using respective kits. The oxidative stress markers and antioxidant enzymes were examined using respective assay kits. The 10 and 20 mg/kg of nigericin treatment decreased the glucose level and urine output and improved the diet intake and body weight gain in diabetic pregnant rats. The nigericin also decreased the total protein, cholesterol, triglycerides, and very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and improved the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the serum of pregnant rats. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and protein carbonyls were decreased by the nigericin in both liver and embryos of the pregnant rats. The levels of glutathione (GSH), total thiols, and activities of catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and glutathione S-transferase (GST) were improved by the nigericin in the diabetic pregnant rats. Altogether, these results provide evidence that nigericin treatment remarkably attenuates the diabetes-stimulated embryopathy in rats. The nigericin effectively decreased embryo lethality, reduced glucose and dyslipidemia, and relieves oxidative stress via upregulating the antioxidant enzyme activities. Hence, it can be a talented therapeutic agent to treat diabetic pregnancy-associated complications. |
