Abstract
Purpose: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) has been associated with cardiovascular risks and comorbid pathologies, particularly cardiorenal disorder. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), especially butyrate, are essential fatty acids that regulate metabolic health and ameliorate granulosa inflammation in PCOS. However, the effect of butyrate on cardiorenal damage associated with PCOS is unknown. This study investigated the impact of SCFA and butyrate on cardiorenal abnormalities in PCOS rat model and the probable involvement of paraoxonase-1 (PON-1).
Methods: Eight-week-old female Wistar rats were allotted into three groups, n = 5, namely control (CTL), PCOS (LEZ), and LEZ + BUT. Induction of PCOS with letrozole (1 mg/kg) lasted for 21 days, while treatment with butyrate (200 mg/kg) commenced after the induction and lasted for 6 weeks uninterruptedly.
Results: PCOS rats showed hyperandrogenism, multiple ovarian cysts, disrupted metabolic indices (fasting insulin and homeostatic model of insulin resistance), and increased (p < 0.05) plasma troponin T, urea, and creatinine, as well as increased cardiac/renal stroma cell-derived factor-1/caspase-6, malondialdehyde/nuclear factor-kappaB, transforming growth factor-β1, and renal ϒ-glutamyl transferase, while a significant decrease (p < 0.05) in systemic nitric oxide/endothelial nitric oxide synthase and cardiac/renal hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2, which were accompanied with a decreased level of PON-1. These systemic and cardiorenal derangements were reversed by butyrate administration.
Conclusions: The results demonstrate the therapeutic benefits of SCFAs, butyrate, against cardiorenometabolic disorder in a model of PCOS. This beneficial effect is accompanied by an elevated level of PON-1. The present data possibly provides a preclinical relevance for the management of cardiorenal syndrome in PCOS.
