Item Inhibition of sodium–glucose cotransporter-2 preserves cardiac function during regional myocardial ischemia independent of alterations in myocardial substrate utilization(Springer, 2019-04-19) Baker, Hana E.; Kiel, Alexander M.; Luebbe, Samuel T.; Simon, Blake R.; Earl, Conner C.; Regmi, Ajit; Roell, William C.; Mather, Kieren J.; Tune, Johnathan D.; Goodwill, Adam G.; Cellular and Integrative Physiology, School of MedicineThe goal of the present study was to evaluate the effects of SGLT2i on cardiac contractile function, substrate utilization, and efficiency before and during regional myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury in normal, metabolically healthy swine. Lean swine received placebo or canagliflozin (300 mg PO) 24 h prior to and the morning of an invasive physiologic study protocol. Hemodynamic and cardiac function measurements were obtained at baseline, during a 30-min complete occlusion of the circumflex coronary artery, and during a 2-h reperfusion period. Blood pressure, heart rate, coronary flow, and myocardial oxygen consumption were unaffected by canagliflozin treatment. Ventricular volumes remained unchanged in controls throughout the protocol. At the onset of ischemia, canagliflozin produced acute large increases in left ventricular end-diastolic and systolic volumes which returned to baseline with reperfusion. Canagliflozin-mediated increases in end-diastolic volume were directly associated with increases in stroke volume and stroke work relative to controls during ischemia. Canagliflozin also increased cardiac work efficiency during ischemia relative to control swine. No differences in myocardial uptake of glucose, lactate, free fatty acids or ketones, were noted between treatment groups at any time. In separate experiments using a longer 60 min coronary occlusion followed by 2 h of reperfusion, canagliflozin increased end-diastolic volume and stroke volume and significantly diminished myocardial infarct size relative to control swine. These data demonstrate that SGLT2i with canagliflozin preserves cardiac contractile function and efficiency during regional myocardial ischemia and provides ischemia protection independent of alterations in myocardial substrate utilization.Item Mechanisms Underlying Cardiovascular Benefits of Sodium Glucose Co-Transporter-2 Inhibitors: Myocardial Substrate or Sodium/Hydrogen Exchanger?(2020-01) Baker, Hana Elisabeth; Tune, Johnathan D.; Basile, David; Goodwill, Adam; Kowala, Mark; Mather, Kieren; Michael, Mervyn (Dod)Recent clinical outcome studies demonstrate that Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) significantly reduce major adverse cardiovascular events and heart failure outcomes in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus. At present, several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the observed cardiovascular benefit of SGLT2i, however, the mechanisms responsible remain to be elucidated. This investigation tested the hypothesis that SGLT2i improves cardiac function and efficiency during acute, regional ischemia/reperfusion injury via preferential shifts in myocardial substrate selection and/or inhibition of cardiac sodium/hydrogen exchanger-1 (NHE-1). Our initial investigation evaluated the effects of 24 hour pretreatment of the SGLT2i canagliflozin on cardiac contractile function, substrate utilization, and efficiency before and during regional myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury in healthy swine. At the onset of ischemia, canagliflozin increased left ventricular end diastolic and systolic volumes which returned to baseline with reperfusion. This increased end diastolic volume was directly associated with increased stroke volume and stroke work relative to controls during ischemia. Canagliflozin also increased cardiac work efficiency during ischemia relative to control swine. No differences in myocardial substrate uptake of glucose, lactate, fatty acids or ketones were detected between groups. In separate experiments using a longer 60 min coronary occlusion, canagliflozin significantly diminished myocardial infarct size. Subsequent studies investigated the effect of an acute administration (15-30 min pre-treatment) of canagliflozin and the NHE-1i cariporide on cardiac contractile function efficiency in response to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. Similar to our initial studies, canagliflozin increased diastolic filling, stroke work and improved cardiac work efficiency relative to untreated control hearts during the ischemic period. In contrast, cariporide did not alter ventricular filling volume, cardiac output or work efficiency at any time point. Additional examination of AP-1 cells transfected with wild-type NHE-1 showed dose-dependent inhibition of NHE-1 activity by cariporide, while canagliflozin had minimal effect on overall activity. This investigation demonstrates that SGLT2i improves cardiac function and efficiency during acute, regional ischemia in healthy swine. However, the present data fail to support the hypothesis that these SGLT2i-mediated improvements involve either preferential alterations in myocardial substrate utilization or the inhibition of NHE-1 activity.
