A SGLT2 Inhibitor Dapagliflozin Alleviates Diabetic Cardiomyopathy by Suppressing High Glucose-Induced Oxidative Stress and .

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). One of the hallmarks of the DCM is enhanced oxidative stress in myocardium. The aim of this study was to research the underlying mechanisms involved in the effects of dapagliflozin (Dap) on myocardial oxidative stress both in streptozotocin-induced DCM rats and rat embryonic cardiac myoblasts H9C2 cells exposed to high glucose (33.
