3,3-Dimethyl-1-butanol attenuates cardiac remodeling in pressure-overload-induced heart failure mice
Abstract
Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is closely related to cardiovascular diseases, particularly heart failure (HF). Recent studies shows that 3,3-dimethyl-1-butanol (DMB) can reduce plasma TMAO levels. However, the role of DMB in overload-induced HF is not well understood. In this research study, we explored the effects and the underlying mechanisms of DMB in overload-induced HF. Aortic banding (AB) surgery was performed in C57BL6/J mice to induce HF, and a subset group of mice underwent a sham operation. After surgery, the mice were fed with a normal diet and given water supplemented with or without 1% DMB for 6 weeks. Cardiac function, plasma TMAO level, cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, expression of inflammatory, electrophysiological studies and signaling pathway were analyzed at the sixth week after AB surgery. DMB reduced TMAO levels in overload-induced HF mice. Adverse cardiac structural remodeling, such as cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis and inflammation, was elevated in overload-induced HF mice. Susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmia also significantly increased in overload-induced HF mice. However, these changes were prevented by DMB treatment. DMB attenuated all of these changes by reducing plasma TMAO levels, hence negatively inhibiting the p65 NF-κB signaling pathway and TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway. DMB plays an important role in attenuating the development of cardiac structural remodeling and electrical remodeling in overload-induced HF mice. This may be attributed to the p65 NF-κB signaling pathway and TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway inhibition.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
