ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Diabetes is one of the major risk factors for cardiomyopathy and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (EF) and highly associated with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction in human. This study aimed 1) to noninvasively assess cardiac function using echocardiography; 2) to test the hypothesis that like diabetic human, cardiac function may also be compromised; in spontaneously developed obese, dysmetabolic and diabetic nonhuman primates (NHPs).METHODS:
Cardiovascular functions were measured by noninvasive echocardiography in 28 control, 20 dysmetabolic/pre-diabetic and 41 diabetic cynomolgus monkeys based on fasting blood glucose and other metabolic status.RESULTS:
The LV end-systolic volume (ESV) was higher while end-diastolic volume (EDV, 12 ± 5.7 mL) and EF (63 ± 12.8 %) significantly lower in the diabetic compared to control (14 ± 7 mL and 68 ± 9.8 %) group, respectively. The E/A ratio of LV trans-mitral peak flow rate during early (E) over late (A) diastole was significantly lower in the diabetic (1.19 ± 0.45) than control (1.44 ± 0.48) group. E-wave deceleration time (E DT) was prolonged in the diabetic (89 ± 41 ms) compared to control (78 ± 26 ms) group. Left atrial (LA) maximal dimension (LADmax) was significantly greater in the diabetic (1.3 ± 0.17 cm) than control (1.1 ± 0.16 cm) group. Biochemical tests showed that total cholesterol and LDL were significant higher in the diabetic (167 ± 63 and 69 ± 37 mg/dL) than both pre-diabetic (113 ± 37 and 41 ± 23 mg/dL) and control (120 ± 28 and 41 ± 17 mg/dL) groups, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis demonstrated that LV systolic (reduced EF) and diastolic (abnormal E/A ratio) dysfunctions are significantly correlated with aging and hyperglycemia. Histopathology examination of the necropsy heart revealed inflammatory infiltration, cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and fragmentation, indicating the myocardial ischemia and remodeling which is consistent with the LV dysfunction phenotype.CONCLUSIONS:
Using noninvasive echocardiography, the present study demonstrated for the first time that dysmetabolic and diabetic NHPs are associated with LV systolic (increased ESV, decreased EF, etc.) and diastolic (decreased EDV and E/A ratio, prolonged E DT, etc.) dysfunctions, accompanied by LA hypertrophic remodeling (increased LADmax), the phenotypes similarly to those found in diabetic patients. Thus, spontaneously developed dysmetabolic and diabetic NHPs is a highly translatable model to human diseases not only in the pathogenic mechanisms but also can be used for testing novel therapies for cardiometabolic disorders.
