Abstract:
Objective To study the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of Astragaloside-Ⅳ (ASG-Ⅳ) on diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) in the rat diabetic model. Methods Forty SD(Sprague-Dawley)healthy rats were used. The diabetic retinopathy rats model were induced by STZ, 45 mg/kg, 3d. Another 10 were injected the same amount of citrate buffer as a control group. Fasting blood glucose was measured with SureStep Plus detector 72 h later. The blood glucose of the diabetes model was ≥16.7 mmol/L. And 12 weeks later, DCM rats were divided into 4 groups randomly in the experiment, includes: DCM, ASG-Ⅳ-L (10 mg/kg), ASG-Ⅳ-M (30 mg/kg), ASG-Ⅳ-H (60 mg/kg)groups. After give dugs 4 weeks, the phosphokinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) and LDH level were tested, the cardiac hypertrophy was evaluated by HW/BW and LVW/BW. Activity of Na+-K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase were determined in left ventricular tissues by ATPase ELISA Assay Kit. The content of FFA was measured and myocardial pathological examination was performed. Results Compared with the control group, blood and urine glucose were higher than experimental animal in diabetic model group, were significantly increased (P<0.05). LDH and Phosphokinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) level were significantly increased, the HWI and LVWI ratio were enhanced in DCM group (P<0.05). ASG-Ⅳ could reduce the ratio of HWI and LVWI, decrease the level of CK-MB and LDH, improve the pathomorphological changing of DCM rat model (P<0.05). Moreover, compared with DCM group, ASG-Ⅳ could restore the Na+-K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activity, reduced the content of FFA (P<0.05). Conclusion ASG-Ⅳ plays therapeutic effect on diabetic cardiomyopathy might via restore the Na+-K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activity, reduce the content of FFA, protect the myocardial energy metabolism in DCM.
