Diabetes exacerbates ischemic heart disease morbidity and mortality via incompletely understood mechanisms. Although adiponectin (APN) reduces myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury in nondiabetic animals, whether APN's cardioprotective actions are altered in diabetes, a pathologic condition with endogenously reduced APN, has never been investigated. High-fat diet (HD)-induced diabetic mice and normal diet (ND) controls were subjected to MI via coronary artery ligation, and given vehicle or APN globular domain (gAPN, 2 μg/g) 10 min before reperfusion. Compared to ND mice (where gAPN exerted pronounced cardioprotection), HD mice manifested greater MI/R injury, and a tripled gAPN dose was requisite to achieve cardioprotective extent …

The present study determined the dynamic change of adiponectin (APN, a cardioprotective adipokine), its receptor expression, and their impact upon myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury during type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) progression, and involved underlying mechanisms. Diabetic state was induced in mice via multiple intraperitoneal injections of low-dose streptozotocin. The dynamic change of plasma APN concentration and cardiac APN receptor-1 and -2 (AdipoR1/2) expression were assessed immediately after diabetes onset (0 wk) and 1, 3, 5, and 7 wk thereafter. Indicators of MI/R injury (infarct size, apoptosis, and LDH release) were determined at 0, 1, and 7 wk of DM duration. …
