Abstract
AIMS:
The aim of the study was to assess the early features of diabetic cardiomyopathy using cardiac magnetic resonance within the first week after streptozotocin injection in mice. We focused on the relationship between left ventricular function and hypovolemia markers in diabetic animals compared to a hypovolemic rodent model.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Swiss mice were randomized into control (group C), streptozotocin-induced diabetes (group D) and furosemide-induced hypovolemia (group F) groups. Cardiac magnetic resonance, non-invasive blood pressure, urine volume, plasma markers of dehydration and cardiac histology were assessed in all groups. Mean blood glucose was higher in diabetic animals than in groups C and F (30.5±5.8 compared to 10.4±2.1 and 11.1±2.8 mmol/L, respectively; p<0.01). Diuresis was increased in animals from group D and F compared to C (14650±11499 and 1533±540 compared to 192±111 μL/24 h; p<0.05). End diastolic and end systolic volumes were lower in group D than in group C at week 1 (1.52±0.36 vs. 1.93±0.35 and 0.54±0.22 vs. 0.75±0.18 mL/kg, p<0.05). These left ventricular volume values in group D were comparable to those observed in the acute hypovolemia model (group F). Increased dehydration plasma markers and an absence of obvious intrinsic myocardial damage (evaluated by cardiac magnetic resonance and histology) suggest that a hemodynamic mechanism underlies the very early drop in left ventricular volumes in group D and provides a potential link to hyperglycemic osmotic diuresis.
CONCLUSIONS:
Researchers using cardiac magnetic resonance in hyperglycemic rodent models should be aware of this hemodynamic mechanism, which may partially explain modifications in cardiac parameters in addition to diabetic myocardial damage.
