Abstract Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) represents a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease, particularly heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). HFpEF predominantly affects elderly individuals and women, is characterized by dysfunctions associated metabolic, inflammatory, oxidative stress pathways. Despite being the most prevalent phenotype in patients T2DM, its underlying pathophysiological mechanisms remain inadequately elucidated. Objective This study aims to investigate effects of on myocardial inflammation, stress, protein quality control (PQC) HFpEF, particular emphasis insulin signaling, autophagy, chaperone-mediated responses. Methods We conducted an analysis left ventricular tissue from patients, both without diabetes, employing range molecular, biochemical, functional assays. The passive stiffness cardiomyocytes (Fpassive) was assessed demembranated before after implementing treatments aimed at reducing inflammation (IL-6 inhibition), (Mito-TEMPO), enhancing PQC (HSP27, HSP70). Inflammatory markers (NF-κB, IL-6, TNF-α, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, NLRP3), (ROS, GSH/GSSG ratio, lipid peroxidation), components signaling pathways (PI3K/AKT/mTOR, AMPK, MAPK, PKG) were evaluated using western blotting, immunofluorescence, ELISA techniques. Results Hearts diabetic exhibited significantly heightened upregulation NF-κB, NLRP3 inflammasome. increase accompanied elevated diminished nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability, impaired activation NO-sGC-cGMP-PKG pathway. Notably, dysregulation observed, as indicated decreased AKT phosphorylation autophagy regulation mediated AMPK mTOR. Additionally, dysfunction evidenced reduced expression levels HSP27 HSP70, which correlated increased cardiomyocyte stiffness. Targeted therapeutic interventions effectively Fpassive, IL-6 inhibition, Mito-TEMPO, HSP administration leading improvements mechanical properties. Conclusion findings this elucidate mechanistic relationship among impairment context HFpEF. Therapeutic strategies that target these dysregulated pathways, including mitochondrial antioxidants, protection, may enhance function T2DM.

Abstract Heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is currently the predominant form of HF a dramatic increase in risk age. Low‐grade inflammation, as occurs aging (termed “inflammaging”), common feature HFpEF pathology. Suppression proinflammatory pathways has been associated attenuated disease severity and better outcomes. From this perspective, inflammasome signaling plays central role mediating chronic inflammation cardiovascular progression. However, causal link between inflammasome‐immune axis on age‐dependent progression remains conjectural. In review, we summarize current understanding inflammatory cardiac function decline. We will also evaluate recent advances evidence regarding pathway pathophysiology HFpEF, special attention to signaling.

However, no study has investigated its effect on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

Colchicine given via gavage daily as treatment. Cardiac were assessed using echocardiography, histology, ELISA. Furthermore, the expression levels of NLRP3 NF-κB signaling pathways examined.Treatment increased survival attenuated dysfunction, indicated decreased echocardiographic E/A ratio longer exercise endurance along reduced ventricular fibrosis remodeling HSD-induced Dahl rats. The treatment also oxidative stress inflammatory cell infiltration, inferred from lower mRNA expressions TNFα CCL2 well protein pathways.The findings signify plays crucial role alleviating systemic activation attenuating dysfunction model.
