PG - 1-10 LID - S0014-2999(19)30182-7 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.ejphar.2019.03.027 [doi] AB - CAPE-pNO(2), a para-nitro derivative of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), has been proved to exert stronger effects on diabetic complications in diabetic mice. The present study aimed at probing into the effect and potential mechanism of CAPE-pNO(2) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) compared with CAPE on model animal. Diabetic model was established by feeding one month of high-fat-diet (HFD) before injection of 40 mg/kg streptozotocin (STZ) for five days, and the normal diet mice were set as control group. Model mice were treated by CAPE-pNO(2) for one month again, the levels of blood glucose, blood lipid and blood insulin significantly decreased. In addition, the myocardial enzymes (creatine Kinase and lactate dehydrogenase) and liver transaminase (aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase) activities decreased. Furthermore, CAPE-pNO(2) could alleviate pancreatic damage, myocardial injury and hepatic steatosis caused by diabetes mellitus, and significantly improved the islet mass, beta cell survival and the hepatic glycogen content. Besides, CAPE-pNO(2) enhanced the expression of phosphorylation-AMP-activated protein kinas (p-AMPK) (Thr172), GLUT4, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) and p-Akt (Ser473), and inhibited the expression of glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK3beta) and p-JNK (Thr183/Tyr185) in liver. All of those effects are better than CAPE generally. It suggested that CAPE-pNO(2) ameliorated type 2 diabetes mellitus by effectively protecting islet beta cell and improving the insulin resistance via the AMPK/GLUT4/GSK3beta/PPARalpha pathway.
