Background: The diabetic heart exhibits a high sensitivity to ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Diabetes mellitus (DM) can affect the efficacy of cardioprotective interventions and reduce the therapeutic potential of existing treatment options. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of shifting from monotherapy to combination therapy in diabetic myocardial I/R injury.Methods: 6-8 week rats were randomized into 10 groups: sham, I/R, ischaemia postconditioning (I-Post), nicorandil (Nic), combination therapy (I-Post + Nic), DM sham, DM I/R, DM I-Post, DM Nic and DM I-Post + Nic. The extent of myocardial injury was clarified by measuring CK-MB and NO levels in plasma, ROS content in myocardial tissues, and TTC/Evans Blue staining to assess the area of myocardial infarction. Pathological staining of cardiac tissue sections were performed to clarify the structural changes in myocardial histopathology. Finally, Western blotting was performed to detect the phosphorylation levels of some key proteins in the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway in myocardial tissues.Results: We confirms that myocardial injury in diabetic I/R rats remained at a high level after treatment with I-Post or nicorandil alone. I-Post combined with nicorandil showed better therapeutic effects in diabetic I/R rats, and the combined treatment further reduced the area of myocardial injury in diabetic I/R rats compared with I-Post or nicorandil treatment alone (P < 0.001), as well as the levels of the myocardial injury markers CK-MB and ROS (P < 0.001); it also significantly increased plasma NO levels. Pathological staining also showed that diabetic rats benefited significantly from the combination therapy. Further mechanistic studies confirmed this finding. The protein phosphorylation levels of PI3K/Akt signalling pathway in the heart tissue of diabetic I/R rats were significantly higher after the combination treatment than after one treatment alone (all P < 0.05).Conclusion: I-Post combined with nicorandil treatment maintains effective cardioprotection against diabetic myocardial I/R injury by activating the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway.
