SGLT2 inhibitor ertugliflozin decreases elevated intracellular sodium, and improves energetics and contractile function in diabetic cardiomyopathy

Background: Elevated myocardial intracellular sodium ([Na+]i) was shown to decrease mitochondrial calcium ([Ca2+]MITO) via mitochondrial sodium/calcium exchanger (NCXMITO), resulting in decreased mitochondrial ATP synthesis. The sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) ertugliflozin (ERTU)...
