renal sitagliptin

Cyclosporine A (CsA) is employed for organ transplantation and autoimmune disorders. Nephrotoxicity is a serious side effect that hampers the therapeutic use of CsA. Hesperidin and sitagliptin were investigated for their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and tissue-protective properties. We aimed to investigate and compare the possible nephroprotective effects of hesperidin and sitagliptin. Male Wistar rats were utilized for induction of CsA nephrotoxicity (20 mg/kg/day, intraperitoneally for 7 days)...

PURPOSE: Adefovir (as dipivoxil) was selected as a probe drug in a previous transporter cocktail phenotyping study to assess renal organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1), with renal clearance (CLR ) as the primary parameter describing renal elimination. An approximately 20% higher systemic exposure of adefovir was observed when combined with other cocktail components (metformin, sitagliptin, pitavastatin, and digoxin) compared to sole administration. The present evaluation applied a population pharmacokinetic (popPK) modeling approach to describe adefovir pharmacokinetics as a cocktail component in more detail...

BACKGROUND: Our case is the first report showing the development of hypoglycemia following the administration of vadadustat in a patient with chronic kidney disease being treated with mitiglinide and sitagliptin, possibly due to drug-drug interaction between vadadustat and sitagliptin under the administration of mitiglinide. CASE PRESENTATION: A 72-year-old man with type 2 diabetes mellitus had received sitagliptin 50 mg once daily and mitiglinide 10 mg three times daily over the last 3 years...

BACKGROUND: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors have limited efficacy in improving glycemic control for obese Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors are recommended for use in patients with type 2 diabetes with obesity. Nevertheless, there has been no previously published study on the effect of switching from dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors to sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors on the systemic and organic effects in obese Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes...

BACKGROUND: Early diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a complication of diabetes mellitus. It mainly affects kidney microvessels and glomerular function, and its timely and effective treatment is critical for early DN. However, the effects of treatments comprising simple Western medicine are not optimal. With the promotion and implementation of integrated Chinese and western medicine treatments, remarkable results have been achieved for many diseases. To this end, we explored the clinical efficacy of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicines for the treatment of early DN...

Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, is a risk factor for endothelial dysfunction, a common pathophysiological denominator for both atherogenesis and cardiac fibrosis. We aimed to investigate whether the cardioprotective and antifibrotic effects of incretin drugs, exenatide and sitagliptin, may be associated with their ability to affect circulating and cardiac ADMA metabolism. Normal and fructose-fed rats were treated with sitagliptin (5.0/10 mg/kg) or exenatide (5/10 µg/kg) for 4 weeks...

PURPOSE: Cocktails of transporter probe drugs are used in vivo to assess transporter activity and respective drug-drug interactions. An inhibitory effect of components on transporter activities should be ruled out. Here, for a clinically tested cocktail consisting of adefovir, digoxin, metformin, sitagliptin, and pitavastatin, inhibition of major transporters by individual probe substrates was investigated in vitro. METHODS: Transporter transfected HEK293 cells were used in all evaluations...

As the pathophysiologic mechanisms of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are discovered, there is a switch from glucocentric to a more comprehensive, patient-centered management. The holistic approach considers the interlink between T2DM and its complications, finding the best therapies for minimizing the cardiovascular (CV) or renal risk and benefitting from the treatment's pleiotropic effects. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) fit best in the holistic approach because of their effects in reducing the risk of CV events and obtaining better metabolic control...

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of cardiovascular events. This study aimed to assess the frequency of inappropriate medication dosages (IMD) for cardiovascular disease prevention among patients with CKD and its predictors in an urban academic primary care clinic in Selangor, Malaysia. All patients who attended the clinic from April to June 2019 and fulfilled the inclusion criteria were included in this cross-sectional study, except for those with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of more than 90 ml/min, diagnosed with urinary tract infection, pregnant or were on dialysis for end stage renal disease...

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has an important role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases in the population with diabetes and it is highly prevalent in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. This case series describes NAFLD associated factors and survival in type 2 diabetes patients (T2DM) who have ESRD treated with hemodialysis. NAFLD prevalence in patients with T2DM and ESRD is 69.2%. A high number of patients (15 out of 18) have obesity evaluated by calculating body mass index (BMI) and bioimpedance measurements...

BACKGROUND: Semaglutide is a Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist used in the second-line treatment of poorly controlled type 2 diabetes and can be used in monotherapy or associated with other oral antidiabetics or even insulin, increasing the effectiveness of the treatment. This work aims to analyze the profile of adverse drug reactions reported for semaglutide in Eudravigilance. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Data on Individual Cases Safety Reports were obtained from the database of the centralized European spontaneous reporting system Eudravigilance by accessing www...

Multidrug and toxin extrusion protein (MATE/SLC47A) secretes metabolites and xenobiotics into the urine in the proximal tubules of the kidney. Uptake assays have been commonly used for evaluating MATE-mediated transport of new chemical entities in drug development. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between in vitro uptake activities by MATEs and the impact of MATE-mediated transport in in vivo renal secretion. In vitro uptake in mouse Mate1- (mMate1) expressing HEK293 cells and several in vivo parameters from mMate1 knockout and wild type mice were compared using nine cationic compounds (almotriptan, naratriptan, talinolol, sumatriptan, alogliptin, sitagliptin, rivaroxaban, saxagliptin, and vildagliptin)...

Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of end-stage renal failure, but the effectiveness of currently available strategies for preventing diabetic nephropathy remains unsatisfactory. This study was designed to evaluate the changes in adipokines levels caused by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor sitagliptin therapy as one of the possible mechanisms of sitagliptin's amelioration of diabetic nephropathy. 24 male Wistar rats, weighing 180 to 200g were taken and divided into three groups, i.e., control, diseased, and treatment group...

Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome type 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Covid-19 is characterized by hyperinflammation, oxidative stress, and multi-organ injury (MOI) such as acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Covid-19 is mainly presented with respiratory manifestations; however, extra-pulmonary manifestations may also occur. Extra-pulmonary manifestations of Covid-19 are numerous including: neurological, cardiovascular, renal, endocrine, and hematological complications...

BACKGROUND: Data are lacking on the comparative effectiveness of commonly used glucose-lowering medications, when added to metformin, with respect to microvascular and cardiovascular disease outcomes in persons with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: We assessed the comparative effectiveness of four commonly used glucose-lowering medications, added to metformin, in achieving and maintaining a glycated hemoglobin level of less than 7.0% in participants with type 2 diabetes...

This was a case of a 39-year-old gentleman known to have diabetes mellitus since February 2021 on insulin glargine (Lantus) 16 units nocte and sitagliptin/metformin 50/500 mg once a day who presented to a tertiary teaching hospital in Kenya in May 2021 with a three-week history of vomiting and diarrhea. He had been previously admitted to a different facility with acute alcoholic pancreatitis. His examination was nonremarkable except for mild dehydration and pallor. He had moderate metabolic acidosis and deranged renal function...

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Data-driven diabetes subgroups have shown distinct clinical characteristics and disease progression, although there is a lack of evidence that this information can guide clinical decisions. We aimed to investigate whether diabetes subgroups, identified by data-driven clustering or supervised machine learning methods, respond differently to canagliflozin. METHODS: We pooled data from five randomised, double-blinded clinical trials of canagliflozin at an individual level...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes associated with different combinations of oral diabetic drugs among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHOD: A prospective multicenter longitudinal, noninterventional observation study design was applied. At baseline (0 month), clinical parameters including glucose profile, renal function, lipid profile and risk assessment for cardiovascular risks were calculated. Mean Weighted difference (MWD) with heterogeneity and effect z was calculated to determine the risk reduction at the end of the study...

Objectives Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitors are recommended as preferred add-on oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) after metformin among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), heart failure (HF), and chronic kidney disease (CKD). They are generally many folds costlier than other OADs. This is a simulatory analysis to assess the incremental cost escalation and risk reduction with their hypothetical substitution/addition in prescriptions of high-risk patients...
