ABSTRACT
Aim:
Recent studies demonstrate that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4i), two classes of antidiabetic drugs, are cardioprotective. However, the mechanisms of these benefits and their comparative efficacy remain unclear. We aimed to compare the effects of these antidiabetic agents on cardiac function, perfusion, and microvascular density using a swine model of chronic myocardial ischemia.Methods:
Chronic myocardial ischemia was induced in Yorkshire swine by ameroid constrictor placement to the left circumflex artery. Two weeks later, pigs were administered vehicle ("CON", 8 pigs), 300 mg SGLT2i canagliflozin, ("CANA", 8 pigs), or 100 mg DPP4i sitagliptin ("SIT", 5 pigs) daily. Five weeks later, pigs were euthanized. Cardiac function, perfusion, collateralization, and protein expression were determined by pressure-volume catheter, microsphere analysis, immunofluorescence, and immunoblotting, respectively.Results:
Compared with SIT, CANA was associated with improved stroke volume and cardiac output, with a trend towards reduced left ventricular stiffness. Both CANA and SIT trended towards improved perfusion compared to CON, but there were no differences between the two treatment groups. SIT was associated with improved capillary density with a trend towards improved arteriolar density compared to CANA. Both CANA and SIT were associated with increased expression of vascular endothelial cadherin compared to CON, without differences in treatment groups. SIT pigs had decreased 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase activation compared to CON and CANA. There was a trend towards increased endothelial nitric oxide synthase activation in the SIT group compared to CON. There were no differences in activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 across groups.Conclusions:
In the setting of chronic myocardial ischemia, canagliflozin is associated with improved cardiac function compared to sitagliptin, with similar effects on perfusion despite differences in microvascular collateralization.
