Objective: In this study we aimed to evaluate the effect of mitotempo, a mitochondria-specific antioxidant, on endothelial and erectile dysfunction in a Streptozotocin-induced rat diabetes model.
Material and Methods: Wistar Albino rats weighing 280-320 g were used in the study. Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal 50 mg/kg single dose streptozotocin injection. Blood glucose levels above 300 mg/dl at the end of 1 week were considered diabetes. Blood glucose was monitored for 4 weeks. The treatment group received mitotempo orally at 0.7 mg/kg/ day for 4 weeks. At the end of the 4th week, the aorta and corpus cavernosum contraction and relaxation responses were evaluated in an isolated organ bath after decapitation.
Results: According to our study results, mitotempo 0.7 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks in a diabetes model preserved endothelial relaxation responses in both the thoracic aorta and corpus cavernosum. Phenylephrine contractions calculated according to KCl contraction did not differ between the groups.
Conclusion: Endothelial cells can be identified as one of the first organs to be exposed to circulating substances. The effects of mROS on endothelial dysfunction caused by hyperglycemia is known. In our study, we found that a 0.7 mg/kg/day mitotempo treatment for 4 weeks showed protective effects on STZ-induced diabetic endothelial dysfunction.

STREPTOZOTOSİN İLE İNDÜKLENEN DİYABETLİ SIÇAN AORT VE KORPUS KAVERNOZUM DOKULARINDA MİTOTEMPO’NUN ENDOTEL ÜZERİNE MUHTEMEL KORUYUCU ETKİSİ

Öz

Amaç: Deneysel olarak sıçanlarda Streptozotosin ile oluşturulmuş diyabet modelinde bir mitokondri spesifik antioksidan olan Mitotempo’nun endotelial ve erektil disfonksiyona etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Deney için 280-320 g ağırlığında Wistar-Albino soyu sıçanlar kullanılmıştır. Diyabet grubuna 50 mg/kg intraperitoneal tek doz streptozotosin uygulanmıştır. 1 hafta sonunda 300 mg/dl kan glikozu seviyesinin üstünde olanlar diyabet kabul edilmiştir. 4 hafta boyunca kan glikozu takip edilmiştir. Bu 4 hafta boyunca tedavi grubuna 0.7 mg/kg/gün oral mitotempo uygulanmıştır. 4. Hafta sonunda dekapite edilen hayvanların aort ve korpus kavernozum dokuları alınarak kasılma ve gevşeme yanıtları izole organ banyosunda değerlendirilmiştir.
Bulgular: Çalışma sonuçlarımıza göre diyabet modelinde mitotemponun 0.7 mg/kg/gün dozunda 4 hafta süre ile uygulanması hem torasik aorta hem de korpus kavernosum endotel yanıtlarını korumuştur. KCl kasılmasına göre rölatif olarak değerlendirilen fenilefrin kasılma yanıtları gruplar arasında farklılık göstermemiştir.
Sonuç: Endotel hücreleri, dolaşımdaki maddelere ilk maruz kalan organlardan biri olarak tanımlanabilir. Hipergliseminin neden olduğu endotel disfonksiyonda mROS’un etkisi bilinmektedir. Diyabete bağlı oluşan endotel disfonksiyonun engellenebilmesi hastalığa bağlı mortalite ve morbiditenin önüne geçebilir. Çalışmamızda mitotemponun diyabetik endotelial disfonksiyon üzerine olası etkileri değerlendirilmiş ve sınırlı koruyucu etkileri gösterilmiştir.
