The etiology of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetes is multifactorial. Sustained hyperglycemia is a major contributor, but additional contributions come from the hypertension, obesity, and hyperlipidemia that are also commonly present in patients with type 2 diabetes and nephropathy. The leptin deficient BTBR ob/ob mouse is a model of type 2 diabetic nephropathy in which hyperglycemia, obesity, and hyperlipidemia, but not hypertension, are present. We have shown that reversal of the constellation of these metabolic abnormalities with leptin replacement can reverse the morphologic and functional manifestations of diabetic nephropathy. Here we tested the hypothesis that reversal specifically of the hypertriglyceridemia, using an antisense oligonucleotide directed against ApoC-III, an apolipoprotein that regulates the interactions of VLDL (very low density lipoproteins) with the LDL receptor, is sufficient to ameliorate the nephropathy of Type 2 diabetes. Antisense treatment resulted in reduction of circulating ApoC-III protein levels and resulted in substantial lowering of triglycerides to near-normal levels in diabetic mice versus controls. Antisense treatment did not ameliorate proteinuria or pathologic manifestations of diabetic nephropathy, including podocyte loss. These studies indicate that pathologic manifestations of diabetic nephropathy are unlikely to be reduced by lipid-lowering therapeutics alone, but does not preclude a role for such interventions to be used in conjunction with other therapeutics commonly employed in the treatment of diabetes and its complications. The impact of lowering lipids alone on the pathologic complications of Type 2 diabetes is unknown. Treatment with a novel antisense oligonucleotide directed against ApoC-III lowered triglycerides significantly in the leptin deficient BTBR ob/ob murine model of type 2 diabetes, but did not ameliorate hyperglycemia or improve the nephropathy.
