High dietary sucrose triggers hyperinsulinemia, increases myocardial β-oxidation, reduces glycolytic flux and delays post-ischemic contractile recovery

Abstract: Although the causal relationship between insulin resistance (IR) and hypertension is not fully resolved, the importance of IR in cardiovascular dysfunction is recognized. As IR may follow excess sucrose or fructose diet, the aim of this study was to test whether dietary starch substitution with sucrose results in myocardial dysfunction in energy substrate utilization and contractility during normoxic and post-ischemic conditions. Forty-eight male Wistar rats were randomly allocated to three diets, differing on… Show more

“…Indeed, a relationship between reperfusion contractile function and myocardial glucose flux rates has been noted in insulin-resistant rats (12). Moreover, insulin-stimulated myocardial glycolysis is suppressed by fatty acids (10) and, as indicated by the present and prior studies (1,20), the exposure of the heart to fatty acids considerably increases myocardial injury in response to ischemia-reperfusion.…”

“…Many studies have shown that high fat and/or high sucrose diets induces insulin resistance in rodents (17,33,37,38). The mechanisms by which high fat and/or high sucrose diets cause insulin resistance are not fully understood.…”

“…The cause for these complications in diabetic patients is the greater sensitivity of diabetic hearts to ischemia-reperfusion injury. This has been linked to impaired Akt signaling and GLUT4 trafficking, as well as mitochondrial dysfunction [5], [6], [7], [8].…”
