Insuline + dpp4 inhibitor

BACKGROUND: Newer diabetes medications may have beneficial effects on mortality, cardiovascular outcomes, and renal outcomes. PURPOSE: To evaluate the effectiveness, comparative effectiveness, and harms of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1) agonists, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitors, and long-acting insulins as monotherapy or combination therapy in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE and EMBASE for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published from 2010 through January 2023...

BACKGROUND: Individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) which necessitates monitoring of risk factors and appropriate pharmacotherapy. This study aimed to identify factors predicting emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and mortality among T2D patients after being newly diagnosed with CVD. METHODS: In a retrospective observational study conducted in Region Halland, individuals aged > 40 years with T2D diagnosed between 2011 and 2019, and a new diagnosis of CVD between 2016 and 2019, were followed for one year from the date of CVD diagnosis...

INTRODUCTION: As treatment agents for diabetes, liraglutide is a long-acting glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist, and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors are widely used because of their safety and tolerability. Regular treatment with liraglutide has been reported to significantly reduce blood glucose levels, but the impact of low-dose (0.3 mg) liraglutide on blood glucose levels immediately after treatment switching from a DPP4 inhibitor remains unknown. METHODS: We conducted a single-arm, retrospective, observational study in 55 inpatients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) to investigate the changes (Δ) in their blood glucose levels at six time points (6-point) from the day before (day -1) to the day after (day 1) by switching the antidiabetic treatment from a DPP4 inhibitor to liraglutide 0...

OBJECTIVE: In our previous study, we identified a notable increase in miR-548ag content after obesity, which contributes to the progression of Type 2 diabetes Mellitus(T2DM) through the up-regulation of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4(DPP4) expression within the liver. However, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying the upregulation of DPP4 by miR-548ag remain elusive. Mature miRNAs rich in GU sequences can activate the TLR(7/8)/NF-κB signalling pathway, which transcriptionally activates DPP4 expression...

Insulin resistance in brain and amyloidogenesis are principal pathological features of diabetes-related cognitive decline and development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). A growing body of evidence suggests that maintaining glucose under control in diabetic patients is beneficial for preventing AD development. Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DDP4is) are a class of novel glucose-lowering medications through increasing insulin excretion and decreasing glucagon levels that have shown neuroprotective potential in recent studies...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a long-term metabolic disorder characterized by the body's resistance to insulin and inadequate production of insulin. Small molecule drugs to treat T2DM mainly control blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity, increasing insulin secretion, or reducing liver glycogen production. With the deepening of research on the pathogenesis of diabetes, many drugs with new targets and mechanisms of action have been discovered. The targets of the drugs for T2DM are mainly dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors (DPP4), sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2), sulfonylurea receptor modulators (SUR), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ agonists (PPARγ), etc...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are chronic, progressive disorders affecting the elderly, which fosters global healthcare concern with the growing aging population. Both T2DM and AD have been linked with increasing age, advanced glycosylation end products, obesity, and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance in the periphery is significant in the development of T2DM and it has been posited that insulin resistance in the brain plays a key role in AD pathogenesis, earning AD the name "type 3 diabetes"...

INTRODUCTION: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with huge clinical and economic burden in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) which can be curtailed by efficacious treatment. In order to achieve this, current treatment pathways for T2DM and associated costs need to be assessed. METHODS: A longitudinal cohort review was conducted to collect country-specific and patient-specific clinical data, over a minimum observation period of 5 years in the KSA...

OBJECTIVE: Hyperglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is frequently encountered in the hospital setting. The recent guidelines for the management of inpatient hyperglycemia have included the use of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors as an alternative to standard insulin therapy in select patients. This raises the question of the inpatient use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), which have gained increasing popularity in the outpatient setting because of beneficial cardiovascular and renal outcomes...

BACKGROUND: Individuals with comorbid major depressive disorder and type 2 diabetes represent an important subgroup of patients for whom conventional treatment may be insufficient. A precision treatment approach that addresses insulin resistance with an outcome of a positive response to antidepressants may prove beneficial. METHODS: This study utilized an emulated target trial on a large dataset from the Optum Clinformatics Data Mart Database. We evaluated the effect of adjuvant pioglitazone, an insulin-sensitizing drug, on antidepressant response among 4696 people with type 2 diabetes, comparing it with DPP4 (dipeptidyl peptidase-4) inhibitors (non-insulin-sensitizing)...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) share common features, including insulin resistance. Brain insulin resistance has been implicated as a key factor in the pathogenesis of AD. Recent studies have demonstrated that anti-diabetic drugs sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2-i) and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4-i) improve insulin sensitivity and provide neuroprotection. However, the effects of these two inhibitors on the brain metabolism and insulin resistance remain uninvestigated...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a heterogeneous neurodegenerative disease with multifaceted neuropathological disorders. AD is characterized by intracellular accumulation of phosphorylated tau proteins and extracellular deposition of amyloid beta (Aβ). Various protease enzymes, including neprilysin (NEP), are concerned with the degradation and clearance of Aβ. Indeed, a defective neuronal clearance pathway due to the dysfunction of degradation enzymes might be a possible mechanism for the accumulation of Aβ and subsequent progression of AD neuropathology...

Skeletal muscle (SM) plays a vital role in energy and glucose metabolism by regulating insulin sensitivity, glucose uptake, and blood glucose homeostasis. Impaired SM metabolism is strongly linked to several diseases, particularly type 2 diabetes (T2D). Insulin resistance in SM may result from the impaired activities of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase, insulin receptor substrate 1, phosphoinositide 3-kinase, and AKT pathways. This review briefly discusses SM myogenesis and the critical roles that SM plays in insulin resistance and T2D...

AIM: DPP4 inhibitors are widely prescribed as treatments for type 2 diabetes. Because drug responses vary among individuals, we initiated investigations to identify genetic variants associated with the magnitude of drug responses. METHODS: Sitagliptin (100 mg) was administered to 47 healthy volunteers. Several endpoints were measured to assess clinically relevant responses - including the effect of sitagliptin on glucose and insulin levels during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)...

Type-2 Diabetes mellitus is a common metabolic disorder. It is combined with co-morbidities, such as obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypertension and cardiovascular disease which taken together, comprise the 'Metabolic Syndrome'. This disease causes crucial morbidity and mortality at considerable expense to patients, their families and society. Different categories of drugs such as insulin secretagogues, insulin sensitizers, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, GLP-1 agonists, DPP4 inhibitors, dual PPAR agonists and others are used for its management...

Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) is a serine protease known to cleave incretin hormones, which stimulate insulin secretion after food intake, a fact that supported the development of its inhibitors (DPP4i or gliptins) for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. In addition to their glucose-lowering effects, DPP4i show benefits for the cardiovascular system that could be related, at least in part, to their protective action on vascular endothelium. DPP4i have been associated with the reversal of endothelial dysfunction, an important predictor of cardiovascular events and a hallmark of diseases such as atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and heart failure...

AIMS: To examine whether early treatment intensification using dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP4i) delays insulin initiation in Chinese patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes for less than 5 years. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a territory-wide prospective cohort study, patients with type 2 diabetes initiating DPP4i at diabetes duration <2 years (early intensification) and 3-5 years (late intensification) were matched using 1:1 propensity-score matching (n = 908 in each arm)...

AIM: In this study we aim to identify the factors associated with treatment inertia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who have been recently started on basal insulin (BI). METHODS: Using UK CPRD GOLD, we identified adults with T2DM with suboptimal glycaemia (HbA1c within 12 months of BI ≥7% (≥53 mmol/mol)). We used multivariable Cox regression model to describe the association between patient characteristics and the time to treatment intensification...

BACKGROUND: We performed a systematic overview of the cost-effectiveness analyses (CEAs) comparing Non-insulin antidiabetic drugs (NIADs) with other NIADs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), using decision-analytical modelling (DAM), focusing on both the economic results and the underlying methodological choices. METHODS: Eligible studies were CEAs using DAM to compare NIADs within the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1) receptor agonists, sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, or dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitor classes with other NIADs within those classes for the treatment of T2DM...

A subclass of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is euglycemic DKA, characterized by the same traits of ketoacidosis and low bicarbonate levels. However, the condition differs from classic DKA because of its normoglycemic levels. Euglycemic DKA was once thought to be incredibly rare, but its incidence has been on the rise with the widespread use of sodium-glucose-cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and other newer anti-diabetic medications. The disorder is not fully understood and is often missed when presenting because of the non-elevated blood sugars...
