Sumario:An important pathophysiological consequence of pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy is adverse cardiac remodeling, including structural changes in cardiomyocytes and extracellular matrix. Diosmetin (DIO), a monomethoxyflavone isolated from citrus fruits, had antioxidative stress effects in multiple organs. The purpose of this study was to examine the biological effect of diosmetin on pathological cardiac hypertrophy. In mice, diosmetin treatment reduced cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction in an aortic banding- (AB-) induced pressure overload model and reducing myocardial oxidative stress by increasing antioxidant gene expression. In vitro, diosmetin (10 or 50 μm, 12 h or 24 h) protected PE-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Mechanistically, diosmetin inhibited autophagy by activating the PI3K/Akt pathway. In particular, diosmetin induced the accumulation of p62 and its interaction with Keap1, promoted the nuclear translocation of Nrf2, and increased the expression of antioxidant stress genes in the process of cardiac hypertrophy. Furthermore, knockdown of p62 in rat primary cardiomyocytes abrogate the protective effect of diosmetin on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Similarly, the Nrf2 inhibitor ML385 obviously abolished the above effects by diosmetin treatment. In conclusion, our results suggest that diosmetin protects cardiac hypertrophy under pressure overload through the p62/Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathway, suggesting the potential of diosmetin as a novel therapy for pathological cardiac hypertrophy.
