Ginsenoside Rg3 extracted from Panax notoginseng has therapeutic effects on diabetes and heart diseases. This study investigated the mechanism of ginsenoside Rg3 on diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). The results showed that ginsenoside Rg3 improved adiponectin secretion and signaling, alleviated overweight, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and lipid accumulation and dysfunction in adipose, liver, and heart tissues. This research suggests that ginsenoside Rg3 may be a promising drug for treating diabetic cardiomyopathy.
Ginsenoside Rg3 extracted from Panax notoginseng has therapeutic effects on diabetes and heart diseases. However, the underlying mechanism of ginsenoside Rg3 on diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains unclear. 24-week-old diabetic db/db mice were treated with ginsenoside Rg3 for 12 weeks, then body weight, serum lipids, adiponectin levels, as well as cardiac function and pathological morphology, were measured. The targets of ginsenoside Rg3 and its regulation of the adiponectin pathway were also evaluated on 3T3-L1 or H9c2 cells. Ginsenoside Rg3 directly bound to PPAR-gamma, improving adiponectin secretion and promoting adiponectin signaling. Significantly attenuated overweight, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia, as well as alleviated lipid accumulation and dysfunction in adipose, liver, and heart tissues, were observed in the ginsenoside Rg3-treated group. Ginsenoside Rg3 could be a promising drug targeting PPAR-gamma to treat diabetic cardiomyopathy.
