ABSTRACT
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common complication of diabetes. DCM causes extensive lesions on cardiac microvasculature that is predominantly cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs). Reducing high glucose (HG)-induced damage such as oxidative damage and apoptosis could alleviate the development of DCM. The natural polyphenol resveratrol (RSV) is widely suggested as a cardioprotective agent that protect against DCM. However, limited evidence supports the protection of RSV against oxidative damage and apoptosis and study on the direct effects of RSV in CMEC is missing. Therefore, the current paper aimed to illustrate if RSV could attenuate oxidative stress and apoptosis in CMEC and to investigate the underlying mechanisms. Our data showed that HG elevated reactive oxygen species, malondialdehyde, decreased superoxide dismutase activity, increased apoptotic cell percentage in CMEC, which were reversed by RSV administration. In addition, RSV demonstrated antioxidative and anti-apoptotic effects in CMEC through AMPK/Sirt1 activation, further confirmed by AMPK inhibition or Sirt1 silencing. This study provides new evidence to support RSV as a potential cardioprotective alternative in treating DCM.
