Circulation. 2007;115:3213 Potential contributors to the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Increased free FA (FFA) activates PPAR-α signaling, leading to the increased transcription of many genes involved in FA oxidation. Increased FA oxidation leads to the generation of ROS at the level of the electron transport chain. ROS, which also can be generated by extramitochondrial mechanisms such as NADPH oxidase, plays a critical role in several pathways involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy, including lipotoxicity, cell death, and tissue damage, as well as mitochondrial uncoupling and reduced cardiac efficiency. TG indicates triglycerides; GLUTs, glucose transporters; PDK4, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4; MCD, malonyl-coenzyme A decarboxylase; MCoA, malonyl-coenzyme A; ACoA, acetyl-coenzyme A; ACC, acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase; CPT1, carnitine palmitoyl-transferase 1; PDH, pyruvate dehydrogenase; CE, cardiac efficiency; PKC, protein kinase C; and AGE, glycation end products.
Diagnostic clues of diabetic cardiomyopathy * MRS: magnetic resonance spectroscopy, * SRI: strain/strain rate imaging.
J Am Coll Cardiol. 2003;42(3):454-457. The hypothetical echocardiographic cascade of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Metabolic changes (non-enzymatic glycation?) cause an early structural alteration (with inappropriate accumulation of myocardial connective tissue?), which induces subclinical disturbances: variation in regional echodensity, blunted cyclic gray level variation, alterations in diastolic function, alterations in systolic function, reduced coronary flow reserve, reduction of inotropic reserve, and finally, the onset of resting wall motion abnormalities—regional at first and global at a later stage. Only at this latter stage, the clinically overt manifestations of diabetic cardiomyopathy appear. Each of these variables is detected by its specific ultrasound technology. Myocardial structural alterations can be detected with tissue characterization; diastolic and systolic abnormalities by tissue Doppler imaging; coronary flow reserve with transthoracic Doppler flowmetry of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD); inotropic reserve reduction by stress echo; and regional dyssynergies by resting two-dimensional (2D) echo.

DiabeticCardiomyopathy Diabetic cardiomyopathy: mild myocardial interstitial fibrosis stained in blue with Masson trichrome (white arrow) in a patient with long-duration type 1 diabetes mellitus at autopsy, with perivascular fibrosis (A) and mild fibrosis between myocytes (B).
DiabeticCardiomyopathy A) Fibrotic infiltration in the myocardium with Masson's trichrome staining. Area stained blue represent fibrotic infiltration. Magnification at 200×, scale bar is 100 μm. B) Quantitative analysis of fibrosis. The collagen volume fraction was higher in the diabetic group than in the control group
A Myth • A myth is a story that may or may not be true. • Myths are generally very old. This means there are no records or other proof that they happened. • We know about them from older people telling them to younger people. • Some myths may have started as 'true' stories but as people told and re-told them, they may have changed some parts, so they are less 'true'. • They may have changed them by mistake, or to make them more interesting.
Facts There is much evidence in favour of the existence of DCM: • post-mortem and histological studies introduced the concept of DCM; • epidemiological studies demonstrated that diabetes is an independent risk factor for heart failure; • experimental studies explored the pathophysiology and demonstrated an adverse effect of diabetes on the heart in animal models; • alteration of myocardial content (myocardial fibrosis and steatosis)
