| Abstract | Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important roles in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) can get activated by ROS and contribute to loss of myocardial contractile function in oxidative stress injury. Previously we have shown that either a MMP-2 inhibitor doxycycline or an antioxidant selenium treatment in vivo prevented diabetes-induced cardiac dysfunction significantly. In addition, there is an evidence for impaired cardiac responsiveness to β-adrenoceptor (βAR) stimulation in experimental animals with diabetes. The exact nature of linkage between the functional depression in cardiac responses to catecholamines and the variations in uncoupling of βAR in diabetes has not been clearly defined. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the effect of in vivo administration of doxycycline on βAR responses of isolated hearts from diabetic rats and compare these data with two well-known antioxidants; sodium selenate and (n−3) fatty acid-treated diabetic rats. We examined the changes in the basal cardiac function in response to the βAR stimulation, adenylate cyclase activity, and βAR affinity to its agonist, isoproterenol. These results showed that antioxidant treatment of diabetic rats could protect the hearts against diabetes-induced depression in βAR responses, significantly while doxycycline did not have any significant beneficial action on these parameters. As a summary, present data, in part, demonstrate that antioxidants and MMP inhibitors could both regulate MMP function but may also utilize different mechanisms of action in cardiomyocytes, particularly related with βAR signaling pathway. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
