Dapagliflozin (DAPA), a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, is well-recognized for its therapeutic benefits in type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular diseases. In this comprehensive in vitro study, we investigated DAPA's effects on cardiomyocytes, aortic endothelial cells (AECs), and stem cell-derived beta cells (SC-β), focusing on its impact on hypertrophy, inflammation, and cellular stress. Our results demonstrate that DAPA effectively attenuates isoproterenol (ISO)-induced hypertrophy in cardiomyocytes, reducing cell size and improving cellular structure. Mechanistically, DAPA mitigates reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and inflammation by activating the AKT pathway, which influences downstream markers of fibrosis, hypertrophy, and inflammation. Additionally, DAPA's modulation of SGLT2, the Na+/H + exchanger 1 (NHE1), and glucose transporter (GLUT 1) type 1 highlights its critical role in maintaining cellular ion balance and glucose metabolism, providing insights into its cardioprotective mechanisms. In aortic endothelial cells (AECs), DAPA exhibited notable anti-inflammatory properties by restoring AKT and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) expression, enhancing mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation, and downregulating inflammatory cytokines at both the gene and protein levels. Furthermore, DAPA alleviated tumor necrosis factor (TNFα)-induced inflammation and stress responses while enhancing endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression, suggesting its potential to preserve vascular function and improve endothelial health. Investigating SC-β cells, we found that DAPA enhances insulin functionality without altering cell identity, indicating potential benefits for diabetes management. DAPA also upregulated MAFA, PI3K, and NRF2 expression, positively influencing β-cell function and stress response. Additionally, it attenuated NLRP3 activation in inflammation and reduced NHE1 and glucose-regulated protein GRP78 expression, offering novel insights into its anti-inflammatory and stress-modulating effects. Overall, our findings elucidate the multifaceted therapeutic potential of DAPA across various cellular models, emphasizing its role in mitigating hypertrophy, inflammation, and cellular stress through the activation of the AKT pathway and other signaling cascades. These mechanisms may not only contribute to enhanced cardiac and endothelial function but also underscore DAPA's potential to address metabolic dysregulation in T2D.
