Hydrogen sulfide promoted retinoic acid-related orphan receptor α transcription to alleviate diabetic cardiomyopathy
Biochem Pharmacol. 2023 Aug 15:115748. doi: 10.1016/j.bcp.2023.115748. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one serious and common complication in diabetes without effective treatments. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) fights against a variety of cardiovascular diseases including DCM. Retinoic acid-related orphan receptor α (RORα) has protective effects on cardiovascular system. However, whether RORα mediates the protective effect of H2S against DCM remains unknown. The present research was to explore the roles and mechanisms of RORα in H2S against DCM. The study demonstrated that H2S donor sodium hydro...

Novel Nanotechnological Approaches for Targeting Dorsal Root Ganglion (DRG) in Mitigating Diabetic Neuropathic Pain (DNP)
Diabetic neuropathy is the most entrenched complication of diabetes. Usually, it affects the distal foot and toes, which then gradually approaches the lower part of the legs. Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) could be one of the worst complications of diabetes mellitus. Long-term diabetes leads to hyperglycemia, which is the utmost contributor to neuropathic pain. Hyperglycemia causing an upregulation of voltage-gated sodium channels in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) was often observed in models of neuropathic pain. DRG opening frequency increases intracellular sodium ion levels, which further causes increased calcium channel open...

Dapagliflozin alleviates cardiac fibrosis through suppressing EndMT and fibroblast activation via AMPK α/TGF-β/Smad signalling in type 2 diabetic rats
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin (DAPA) on DCM especially for cardiac fibrosis and explore the underlying mechanism. In vivo, the model of type 2 diabetic rats was built with high-fat feeding and streptozotocin injection. Untreated diabetic rats showed cardiac dysfunction, increased myocardial fibrosis and EndMT, which was attenuated after treatment with DAPA and metformin. In vitro, HUVECs and primary cardiac fibroblasts were treated with DAPA and exposed to high glucose (HG). HG-induced EndMT in HUVECs and collagen secretion of fibroblasts were markedly inhibited by DAPA. Up-regula...

Empagliflozin Alleviates Hepatic Steatosis by Activating the AMPK-TET2-Autophagy Pathway in vivo and in vitro
Conclusion: Empagliflozin improves hepatic steatosis through the AMPK-TET2-autophagy pathway. The use of empagliflozin as a treatment for preventing and treating MAFLD in patients with T2DM warrants further study.

SGLT1 Inhibition Attenuates Apoptosis in Diabetic Cardiomyopathy via the JNK and p38 Pathway
Conclusion: SGLT1 can be used as a marker for the diagnosis of DCM, and SGLT1 inhibition can attenuate apoptosis, thereby suppressing DCM development via the JNK and p38 pathway.

Exogenous sodium hydrosulfide protects against high glucose ‑induced injury and inflammation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells by inhibiting necroptosis via the p38 MAPK signaling pathway.
In conclusion, the findings of the present study indicated that NaHS may protect HUVECs against HG‑induced injury and inflammation by inhibiting necroptosis via the p38 MAPK signaling pathway, which may represent a promising drug for the therapy of diabetic vascular complications.

Calcium dobesilate mediates renal interstitial fibrosis and delay renal peritubular capillary loss through Sirt1/p53 signaling pathway.
In this study, we aimed to determine the ability of Cad to protect against renal interstitial fibrosis induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) and identify the underlying therapeutic mechanisms of Cad during hypoxia/serum deprivation (H/SD) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). A total of 36 male mice were randomly assigned into 3 groups (12 mice in each group): the Sham-operated group (Sham), the saline solution-treated UUO mice group (UUO), and the Cad administration (intragastrically) group (Cad). The mice in Cad group were administered Cad (100 mg/kg) daily by oral gavage and slaughtered on the 7...
