This study investigated if calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) axis mediates the cardiac apoptosis in rats with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)-induced rats or administered chronically high-fat diet rich in corn oil (CO-HFD). Also, it investigated the impact of chronic administration of CO-HFD on Fas/Fas ligand (Fas/FasL)-induced apoptosis in the hearts of T1DM-induced rats. Adult male Wistar rats (140-160 g) were classified as control: (10% fat) CO-HFD: (40% fat), T1DM, and T1DM + CO-HFD (n=20/each). In vitro, cardiomyocytes were cultured in either low glucose (LG) or high glucose (HG) media in the presence or absence of linoleic acid (LA) and other inhibitors. Compared to the control, increased reactive oxygen species (ROS), protein levels of cytochrome C, cleaved caspase-8 and caspase-3, myocardial damage and impeded left ventricular (LV) function were observed in the hearts of all treated groups and maximally in T1DM + CO-HFD-treated rats. mRNA of all NFAT members (NFAT1-4) were not affected by any treatment. CO-HFD or LA significantly up-regulated Fas levels in both LVs and cultured cardiomyocytes in a ROS dependent mechanism and independent of modulating intracellular Ca2+ levels or calcineurin activity. T1DM or hyperglycemia significant up-regulated mRNA and protein levels of Fas and FasL by activating Ca2+/calcineurin/NFAT-4 axis. Furthermore, Fas/FasL cell death induced by recombinant FasL (rFasL) or HG media was enhanced by pre-incubating the cells with LA. In conclusion, activation of the Ca2+/calcineurin/NFAT4 axis is indispensable for hyperglycemia-induced Fas/FasL cell death in the cardiomyocytes and CO-HFD sensitizes this by up-regulation of Fas.
