Diabetic cardiomyopathy: Mechanisms and new treatment strategies targeting antioxidant signaling pathways

TL;DR: This work reviews the current evidence of molecular disturbances present in the diabetic heart, and their role in the development of diabetes-induced impairments in myocardial function and structure, and incorporates both the contribution of increased reactive oxygen species production and reduced antioxidant defenses to diabetic cardiomyopathy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiac-Specific IGF-1 Receptor Transgenic Expression Protects Against Cardiac Fibrosis and Diastolic Dysfunction in a Mouse Model of Diabetic Cardiomyopathy

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined whether cardiac-specific overexpression of IGF-1R prevents diabetes-induced myocardial remodeling and dysfunction associated with a murine model of diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting the upregulation of reactive oxygen species subsequent to hyperglycemia prevents type 1 diabetic cardiomyopathy in mice

TL;DR: The hypothesis that targeting left-ventricular (LV) reactive oxygen species (ROS) upregulation subsequent to hyperglycemia attenuates type 1 diabetes-induced LV remodeling and dysfunction, accompanied by attenuated proinflammatory markers and cardiomyocyte apoptosis is tested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic Administration of the Nitroxyl Donor 1-Nitrosocyclo Hexyl Acetate Limits Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in a Mouse Model of Diabetes Mellitus In Vivo

TL;DR: These studies provide the first evidence that HNO donors may represent a promising strategy for treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy and implies therapeutic efficacy in settings of chronic heart failure.
