ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT) 2 inhibitors partially inhibit SGLT1 expression; however, whether a clinical dose of SGLT2 inhibitor abrogates ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is unknown, and the pharmacological cardioprotective effect under SGLT1 inhibition has not been examined. In this study, we investigated whether a clinical dose of tofogliflozin abrogates IPC and whether pharmacological preconditioning with olprinone has cardioprotective effects under SGLT1 inhibition.METHODS:
Male Wistar rats were divided into seven groups (seven rats per group) and subjected to the following treatments before inducing ischemia/reperfusion (I/R; 30 minutes of coronary artery occlusion followed by 120 minutes of reperfusion) saline infusion control treatment (Con); ischemic preconditioning (IPC); IPC after phlorizin infusion (IPC+Phl); IPC after low-dose tofogliflozin infusion (IPC+L-Tof); IPC after high-dose tofogliflozin infusion (IPC+H-Tof); olprinone infusion (Olp); and Olp infusion after phlorizin infusion (Olp+Phl).RESULTS:
The infarct size was significantly decreased in the IPC group, but not in the IPC+Phl group. In contrast, the infarct size decreased in the IPC+L-Tof and IPC+H-Tof groups. Additionally, Olp reduced the infarct size, and the effect was preserved in Olp+Phl groups. Phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) expression was lower in the IPC+Phl group compared to that in the IPC group.CONCLUSION:
The cardioprotective effect of IPC was attenuated by strong SGLT1 inhibition, but the effect was preserved under a clinical dose of highly selective SGLT2 inhibitor. Olprinone exerts a cardioprotective effect even under strong SGLT1 inhibition.
