Abstract Objective: To illuminate the protective effect of aerobic exercise inhibiting ferroptosis by heme oxygenase-1 (Hmox-1) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) against diabetic myocardial remodeling. Methods:Male C57BL/6 mice (as control) and db/db mice were fed with ordinary diet, which were spontaneously induced with type 2 diabetes, and mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 2 diabetes mice were treated with 12 weeks treadmill training. Then, cardiac function was examined by echocardiography HE, Masson’s staining and Sirius staining were respectively used to measure cardiac fibrosis andmorphology. In addition, mRNA and protein of GPX4 and Hmox-1 levels were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction or Western blot. And cardiac 4-HNE was detected by immunohistochemical method. Results:Compared with the controls, both the heart of db/db mice and HFD+STZ induced mice presented by increased cardiac Hmox-1 and 4-HNE expression, decreased cardiac GPX4 level, accompanied by a reduction of cardiac dysfunction and cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. However, these abnormal changes were reversed by aerobic exercise, reflected by improved cardiac function, downregulated Hmox-1 and 4-HNE level, markedly activated GPX4 (P<0.05). Conclusion: Aerobic exercise inhibited cardiac ferroptosis to reverse cardiac remodeling in diabetic mice.
