| dc.description | This study provides evidence that STZ-NA induced diabetes mellitus is associated with cardiac triglyceride accumulation and tissue disruption with corresponding increase in cardiac HDAC activity. However, sodium acetate suppresses cardiac HDAC activity and normalizes cardiac triglyceride and tissue integrity in diabetic rats. Therefore, the study suggests that sodium acetate is beneficial for cardioprotection in diabetes mellitus. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Diabetes mellitus, particularly type 2 occurs at global epidemic proportions and leads to cardiovascular diseases. Molecular studies suggest the involvement of epigenetic altera tions such as histone code modification in the progression of cardiometabolic disorders. However, short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are recognized as epigenetic modulators by their histone deacetylase inhibitory property. It is therefore hypothesized that cardiac histone deacetylase activity increases in type II diabetes and SCFA, acetate, would inhibit histone deacetylase with accompanying restoration of glucose dysregulation, cardiac lipid deposi tion, and tissue damage in male Wistar rats. Twenty-four male rats (240–270 g) were allotted into four groups (n ¼ 6 per group) namely: vehicle-treated (p.o.), sodium acetate-treated (200 mg/kg), diabetic, and diabeticþ sodium acetate-treated groups. Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin 65 mg/kg after a dose of nicotinamide 110 mg/kg. The results showed that diabetic rats had, glucose dysregulation, elevated serum and cardiac triglyc eride, malondialdehyde, alanine aminotransferase, histone deacetylase, serum aspartate transaminase, cardiac low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc), glutathione/glutathione disulphide ratio (GSH/GSSG), reduced serum and cardiac high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc), and serum GSH/GSSG. Histological analysis revealed disrupted cardiac fiber in diabetic rats. However, sodium acetate attenuated glucose dysregulation and improved serum and cardiac GSH/GSSG. Sodium acetate normalized cardiac triglyceride accumulation, malondialdehyde, serum aspartate transaminase levels and prevented cardiac tissue damage in diabetic rats. These effects were associated with suppressed histone deacetylase activity. Therefore, sodium acetate attenuated but failed to normalize glucoregulation. Nevertheless, it ameliorated oxidative stress- and lipid dysmetabolism-driven cardiovascular complications in diabetic rats by the suppression of histone deacetylase activity. | |
