Exosomal microRNAs miR-30d-5p and miR-126a-5p Are Associated with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction in STZ-Induced Type 1 Diabetic Rats.

Exosomal microRNAs (EXO-miRNAs) are promising non-invasive diagnostic biomarkers for cardiovascular disease. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a poorly understood cardiovascular complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). Little is known about whether EXO-miRNAs can be used as biomarkers for HFpEF in DM.

Therapeutic potential of cPLA2 inhibitor to counteract dilated-cardiomyopathy in cholesterol-treated H9C2 cardiomyocyte and MUNO rat.

Background And Purpose: The pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy in metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO) has been well studied. However, the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy typically associated with high cholesterol levels in metabolically unhealthy nonobesity (MUNO) remains unclear. We investigated whether cholesterol-generated LysoPCs contribute to cardiomyopathy and the role of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) inhibitor in cholesterol-induced MUNO.

Resveratrol Mitigates High-Fat Diet-Induced Vascular Dysfunction by Activating the Akt/eNOS/NO and Sirt1/ER Pathway.

We investigated whether resveratrol (RSV) can attenuate obesity and diabetes progression and improve diabetes-induced vascular dysfunction, and we attempted to delineate its underlying mechanisms. Male C57Bl/6 mice were administered a high-fat diet (HFD) for 17 weeks. Mice developed type 2 diabetes with increased body weight, hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and hyperlipidemia.
