E1231 Alleviates Diabetic Cardiomyopathy by Regulating the Silent Information Regulator 1/Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ Coactivator-1α/Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 Pathway

Pharmaceutical Chemistry Journal Aims and scope

We aimed to investigate the underlying function and mechanism of E1231 against diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). H9c2 cells were exposed to either 33 mmol/L mannitol or an identical concentration of glucose (high glucose, HG) in vitro. In vivo, diabetes mellitus (DM) mice were induced by injection of 60 mg/kg streptozotocin intraperitoneally. E1231 was used to treat cells (5 mmol/L) or animals (40 mg/kg), and subsequent assays were conducted to determine its effect on DCM-associated manifestations. Western blot was employed to evaluate protein expressions of the silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). In vitro, treatment with E1231 significantly reduced oxidative stress and apoptosis induced by HG via activating the SIRT1-PGC-1α/Nrf2 pathway in H9c2 cells, compared to cardiomyocytes under HG conditions. In vivo, DM mice showed up-regulated SIRT1, PGC-1α, and Nrf2 expression, with protection against cardiac fibrosis, dysfunction, and oxidative stress impairment. The study demonstrated that E1231 alleviates cardiac dysfunction via activating the SIRT1-PGC-1α signaling pathway in DCM, leading to the activation of Nrf2. Therefore, E1231 has the potential to facilitate the treatment of DCM.
