Abstract
AIM To synthesize, characterize, and validate 6FGA, a fluorescent glucose modified with a Cyanine5.5 at carbon-6 position, for probing the function of sodium-dependent glucose transporters, SGLT1 and SGLT2. MAIN METHODS The synthesis of fluorescent glucose analogue was achieved through "click chemistry" of Cyanine5.5-alkyne and 6-azido-6-deoxy-d-glucose. Cell system studies were conducted to characterize the in vivo transport properties. KEY FINDINGS Optical analyses revealed that 6FGA displayed similar spectral profiles to Cyanine5.5 in DMSO, allowing for concentration determination, thus supporting its utility in quantitative kinetic studies within biological assays. Uptake studies in cell system SGLT models, LLC-PK1 and HEK293 cells, exhibited concentration and time-dependent behavior, indicating saturation at specific concentrations and durations which are hallmarks of transported-mediated uptake. The results of cytotoxicity assays suggested cell viability at micromolar concentrations, enabling usage in assays for at least 1 h without significant toxicity. The dependence of 6FGA uptake on sodium, the co-transported cation, was demonstrated in LLC-PK1 and HEK293 cells. Fluorescence microscopy confirmed intracellular localization of 6FGA, particularly near the nucleus. Competition studies revealed that glucose tends to weakly reduce 6FGA uptake, although the effect did not achieve statistical significance. Assessments using standard SGLT and GLUT inhibitors highlighted 6FGA's sensitivity for probing SGLT-mediated transport. SIGNIFICANCE 6FGA is a new fluorescent glucose analog offering advantages over existing probes due to its improved photophysical properties, greater sensitivity, enabling subcellular resolution and efficient tissue penetration in near-infrared imaging. 6FGA presents practicality and cost-effectiveness, making it a promising tool for nonradioactive, microplate-based assays at investigating SGLT-mediated glucose transport mechanisms.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The goal of this paper is to summarize the data pertaining to the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) for the prevention of cardiotoxicity in patients receiving anthracyclines for cancer treatment. We discuss the potential efficacy of this class of medications, incorporating insights from existing literature and ongoing studies. RECENT FINDINGS SGLT2i are a class of medications which were initially developed for treatment of Type 2 diabetes and later extended to treat heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection fraction regardless of diabetes status. There remains a need for effective and safe treatments to preventing cardiotoxicity in anthracycline-treated patients. It has been proposed that SGLT2i may provide protection against the cardiotoxic effects of anthracyclines. Some of the proposed mechanisms include beneficial metabolic, neurohormonal, and hemodynamic effects, renal protection, as well as a decrease in inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis, mitochondrial dysfunction and ion homeostasis. There is emerging evidence from basic science and observational studies that SGLT2i may play a role in the prevention of chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity. Randomized controlled trials are needed to conclusively determine the role of SGLT2 inhibitors as a cardioprotective therapy in patients receiving anthracyclines for the treatment of cancer.

Abstract
Aim: Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) lower anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. Methods: PubMed and Google Scholar were searched until September 2023 for studies regarding SGLT2i for treating anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. Overall mortality and cardiovascular events were considered. Using a random-effects model, data pooled RR and HR at a 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: 3 cohort studies were identified, analyzing 2817 patients. Results display a significant reduction in overall mortality [RR = 0.52 (0.33-0.82); p = 0.005; I2= 32%], HF hospitalization [RR = 0.20 (0.04-1.02); p = 0.05; I2= 0%] and no significant reduction in HF incidence [RR = 0.50 (0.20-1.16); p = 0.11, I2= 0%]. Conclusion: SGLT2i mitigates mortality and hospitalization due to heart failure, improving cancer patient's chances of survival by undergoing anthracycline treatment.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and the cancer patient: from diabetes to cardioprotection and beyond. Basic Res Cardiol 2024:10.1007/s00395-024-01059-9.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), a new drug class initially designed and approved for treatment of diabetes mellitus, have been shown to exert pleiotropic metabolic and direct cardioprotective and nephroprotective effects that extend beyond their glucose-lowering action. These properties prompted their use in two frequently intertwined conditions, heart failure and chronic kidney disease. Their unique mechanism of action makes SGLT2i an attractive option also to lower the rate of cardiac events and improve overall survival of oncological patients with preexisting cardiovascular risk and/or candidate to receive cardiotoxic therapies. This review will cover biological foundations and clinical evidence for SGLT2i modulating myocardial function and metabolism, with a focus on their possible use as cardioprotective agents in the cardio-oncology settings. Furthermore, we will explore recently emerged SGLT2i effects on hematopoiesis and immune system, carrying the potential of attenuating tumor growth and chemotherapy-induced cytopenias.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have demonstrated multifaceted pharmacological effects. In addition to type 2 diabetes, they are now indicated for heart failure and chronic kidney disease. This study aimed to identify novel associations between SGLT2i use and health outcomes using real-world data. Using linked data from a nationwide diabetes registry in Australia, we compared hospitalization rates in people living with type 2 diabetes commencing treatment with SGLT2i and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4i) between December 1, 2013, and June 30, 2019. Cause-specific hospitalizations were categorized across three hierarchies of diagnoses (first, first three, and first four digits of International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Version, Australian Modification codes). Incidence rate ratio (IRR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) for each cause-specific hospitalization were estimated using negative binomial regression. In the first hierarchy, hospitalization rates were lower across most diagnosis groups among SGLT2i initiators (n = 99,569) compared with DPP4i initiators (n = 186,353). In the second and third hierarchies, there were lower hospitalization rates relating to infections, anemias, and obstructive airway diseases among SGLT2i initiators compared with DPP4i initiators. These included sepsis (IRR: 0.60, 95% CI: 0.51-0.72) anemia (IRR: 0.55, 95% CI: 0.46-0.66), and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (IRR: 0.52, 95% CI: 0.40-0.68), as well as for previously known associations (e.g., heart failure (IRR: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.56-0.70)). SGLT2is have previously uncharacterized associations on a range of important clinical outcomes; validation of these associations requires further study, some of which may suggest novel benefits or new indications for SGLT2is.

Empagliflozin Alleviates Carfilzomib-Induced Cardiotoxicity in Mice by Modulating Oxidative Stress, Inflammatory Response, Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress, and Autophagy. Antioxidants (Basel) 2024; 13:671.

Abstract
Carfilzomib is an irreversible proteasome inhibitor used for multiple myeloma patients. However, carfilzomib treatment is associated with cardiovascular complications. Empagliflozin, an Sodium Glucose Co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT-2) inhibitor, is an oral antidiabetic drug with proven antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The aim of the present study was to determine the cardioprotective effects of empagliflozin against carfilzomib-induced cardiotoxicity. C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups: control, empagliflozin, carfilzomib, and carfilzomib + empagliflozin. Empagliflozin prevented carfilzomib-induced cardiotoxicity by ameliorating histological alterations, CK-MB, and troponin-I. Moreover, it inhibited carfilzomib-induced oxidative damage and inflammation via its action on catalase activity, reduced glutathione levels and superoxide dismutase activity, and reduced nuclear factor-κB (p65) and cytokine levels. Mechanistically, empagliflozin abrogated endoplasmic reticulum stress induced by carfilzomib, as evidenced by the effect on the Glucose Regulated Protein-78 (GRP-78)/Activating Transcription Factor 6 (ATF6)/C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) axis. Intriguingly, carfilzomib significantly induced autophagy, an effect that was further enhanced by empagliflozin, evidenced by increased LC3B and beclin-1 mRNA expression and reduced p62 expression. The effect of empagliflozin on apoptosis was confirmed by reduced expression of active caspase-3. Importantly, empagliflozin did not alter the cytotoxic effect of carfilzomib on human U266B1 multiple myeloma cells. our findings suggest that empagliflozin may provide a new therapeutic strategy to mitigate carfilzomib-induced cardiotoxicity in multiple myeloma patients.

Abstract
Background Anthracycline-mediated adverse cardiovascular events are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with cancer. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) exert multiple cardiometabolic benefits in patients with/without type 2 diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection fraction. We hypothesized that the SGLT2i dapagliflozin administered before and during doxorubicin (DOXO) therapy could prevent cardiac dysfunction and reduce pro-inflammatory pathways in preclinical models. Methods Cardiomyocytes were exposed to DOXO alone or combined with dapagliflozin (DAPA) at 10 and 100 nM for 24 h; cell viability, iATP, and Ca++ were quantified; lipid peroxidation products (malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxy 2-hexenal), NLRP3, MyD88, and cytokines were also analyzed through selective colorimetric and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods. Female C57Bl/6 mice were treated for 10 days with a saline solution or DOXO (2.17 mg/kg), DAPA (10 mg/kg), or DOXO combined with DAPA. Systemic levels of ferroptosis-related biomarkers, galectin-3, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and pro-inflammatory chemokines (IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IL17-α, IL-18, IFN-γ, TNF-α, G-CSF, and GM-CSF) were quantified. After treatments, immunohistochemical staining of myocardial and renal p65/NF-kB was performed. Results DAPA exerts cytoprotective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties in human cardiomyocytes exposed to DOXO by reducing iATP and iCa++ levels, lipid peroxidation, NLRP-3, and MyD88 expression. Pro-inflammatory intracellular cytokines were also reduced. In preclinical models, DAPA prevented the reduction of radial and longitudinal strain and ejection fraction after 10 days of treatment with DOXO. A reduced myocardial expression of NLRP-3 and MyD-88 was seen in the DOXO-DAPA group compared to DOXO mice. Systemic levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, G-CSF, and GM-CSF were significantly reduced after treatment with DAPA. Serum levels of galectine-3 and hs-CRP were strongly enhanced in the DOXO group; on the other hand, their expression was reduced in the DAPA-DOXO group. Troponin-T, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), and N-Terminal Pro-BNP (NT-pro-BNP) were strongly reduced in the DOXO-DAPA group, revealing cardioprotective properties of SGLT2i. Mice treated with DOXO and DAPA exhibited reduced myocardial and renal NF-kB expression. Conclusion The overall picture of the study encourages the use of DAPA in the primary prevention of cardiomyopathies induced by anthracyclines in patients with cancer.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, originally approved for type 2 diabetes mellitus, have demonstrated efficacy in reducing cardiovascular events, particularly heart failure, in patients with and without diabetes. An intriguing research area involves exploring the potential application of SGLT2 inhibitors in cardio-oncology, aiming to mitigate the cardiovascular adverse events associated with anticancer treatments. These inhibitors present a unique dual nature, offering both cardioprotective effects and anticancer properties, conferring a double benefit for cardio-oncology patients. In this review, the authors first examine the established cardioprotective effects of SGLT2 inhibitors in heart failure and subsequently explore the existing body of evidence, including both preclinical and clinical studies, that supports the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in the context of cardio-oncology. The authors further discuss the mechanisms through which SGLT2 inhibitors protect against cardiovascular toxicity secondary to cancer treatment. Finally, they explore the potential anticancer effects of SGLT2 inhibitors along with their proposed mechanisms.

Here, we clarified the cancer-specific mortality (primary outcome) and all-cause mortality (secondary outcome) of SGLT2is and their dose-dependency in patients with cancer undergoing standard curative treatments. METHODS We analyzed data from patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) diagnosed with cancer between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2018, enrolled from the Taiwan Cancer Registry database. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate all-cause mortality and cancer-specific mortality, comparing survival curves between SGLT2i users and nonusers using the stratified log-rank test. Cox proportional hazards regression was conducted to identify independent predictors for all-cause and cancer-specific mortality among the covariates. RESULTS We performed 1:2 propensity score matching of our data, which yielded a final cohort of 50,133 patients with cancer; of them, 16,711 and 33,422 were in the SGLT2i user and nonuser groups, respectively. The adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) for cancer-specific and all-cause mortality in SGLT2i users compared with nonusers was 0.21 (95 % confidence interval [CI]: 0.20-0.22) and 0.22 (95 % CI: 0.21-0.23). We divided the patients into four subgroups stratified by quartiles (Q) of cumulative defined daily doses per year (cDDDs), and all-cause and cancer-specific mortality was noted to significantly decrease with increases in dosage (from Q1 to Q4 cDDDs) in SGLT2i users compared with in nonusers (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION SGLT2is increase overall survival and cancer-specific survival in patients with cancer in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 syndrome (Tors), paradigm implies an exhaustive cohesive disease entity driven by a hyperactive mTORC1, and which includes obesity, type 2 diabetic hyperglycemia, diabetic dyslipidemia, diabetic cardiomyopathy, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, hypertension, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, some cancers, neurodegeneration, polycystic ovary syndrome, psoriasis and other. The TorS paradigm may account for the efficacy of standard-of-care treatments of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in alleviating the glycaemic and non-glycaemic diseases of TorS in T2D and non-T2D patients. The TorS paradigm may generate novel treatments for TorS diseases.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive and lethal primary brain tumor whose median survival is less than 15 months. The current treatment regimen comprising surgical resectioning, chemotherapy with Temozolomide (TMZ), and adjuvant radiotherapy does not achieve total patient cure. Stem cells' presence and GBM tumor heterogeneity increase their resistance to TMZ, hence the poor overall survival of patients. A dysregulated cell cycle in glioblastoma enhances the rapid progression of GBM by evading senescence or apoptosis through an over-expression of cyclin-dependent kinases and other protein kinases that are the cell cycle's main regulatory proteins. Herein, we identified and validated the biomarker and predictive properties of a chemoradio-resistant oncogenic signature in GBM comprising CDK1, PBK, and CHEK1 through our comprehensive in silico analysis. We found that CDK1/PBK/CHEK1 overexpression drives the cell cycle, subsequently promoting GBM tumor progression. In addition, our Kaplan-Meier survival estimates validated the poor patient survival associated with an overexpression of these genes in GBM. We used in silico molecular docking to analyze and validate our objective to repurpose Dapagliflozin against CDK1/PBK/CHEK1. Our results showed that Dapagliflozin forms putative conventional hydrogen bonds with CDK1, PBK, and CHEK1 and arrests the cell cycle with the lowest energies as Abemaciclib.

SGLT2i reduces risk of developing HCC in patients with co-existing type 2 diabetes and hepatitis B infection: A territory-wide cohort study in Hong Kong. Hepatology 2023; 78:1569-1580. [PMID: 37055020 DOI: 10.1097/hep.0000000000000404] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 03/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic hepatitis B infection (CHB) are risk factors of HCC. Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) inhibit HCC oncogenesis in preclinical studies. However, clinical studies are lacking. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of SGLT2i use on incident HCC using a territory-wide cohort of exclusively patients with co-existing T2D and CHB. APPROACH AND RESULTS Patients with co-existing T2D and CHB between 2015 and 2020 were identified from the representative electronic database of the Hong Kong Hospital Authority. Patients with and without SGLT2i use were 1:1 matched by propensity score for their demographics, biochemistry results, liver-related characteristics, and background medications. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to assess the association between SGLT2i use and incident HCC. A total of 2,000 patients with co-existing T2D and CHB (1,000 in each SGLT2i and non-SGLT2i group; 79.7% on anti-HBV therapy at baseline) were included after propensity-score matching. Over a follow-up of 3,704 person-years, the incidence rates of HCC were 1.39 and 2.52 cases per 100 person-year in SGLT2i and non-SGLT2i groups, respectively. SGLT2i use was associated with a significantly lower risk of incident HCC (HR 0.54, 95%CI: 0.33-0.88, p =0.013). The association remained similar regardless of sex, age, glycemic control, diabetes duration, presence of cirrhosis and hepatic steatosis, timing of anti-HBV therapy, and background antidiabetic agents including dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, insulin, or glitazones (all p interaction>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Among patients with co-existing T2D and CHB, SGLT2i use was associated with a lower risk of incident HCC.

Canagliflozin reduces chemoresistance in hepatocellular carcinoma through PKM2-c-Myc complex-mediated glutamine starvation. Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 208:571-586.

Abstract
Cisplatin (CPT) is one of the standard treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, its use is limits as a monotherapy due to drug resistance, and the underlying mechanism remains unclear. To solve this problem, we tried using canagliflozin (CANA), a clinical drug for diabetes, to reduce chemoresistance to CPT, and the result showed that CANA could vigorously inhibit cell proliferation and migration independent of the original target SGLT2. Mechanistically, CANA reduced aerobic glycolysis in HCC by targeting PKM2. The downregulated PKM2 directly bound to the transcription factor c-Myc in the cytoplasm to form a complex, which upregulated the level of phosphorylated c-Myc Thr58 and promoted the ubiquitination and degradation of c-Myc. Decreased c-Myc reduced the expression of GLS1, a key enzyme in glutamine metabolism, leading to impaired glutamine utilization. Finally, intracellular glutamine starvation induced ferroptosis and sensitized HCC to CPT. In conclusion, our study showed that CANA re-sensitized HCC to CPT by inducing ferroptosis through dual effects on glycolysis and glutamine metabolism. This is a novel mechanism to increase chemosensitivity, which may provide compatible chemotherapy drugs for HCC.

Canagliflozin mediates tumor suppression alone and in combination with radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) through inhibition of HIF-1α. Mol Oncol 2023; 17:2235-2256. [PMID: 37584455 PMCID: PMC10620129 DOI: 10.1002/1878-0261.13508] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2023] [Revised: 05/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has a poor prognosis, and effective therapeutic strategies are lacking. The diabetes drug canagliflozin inhibits NSCLC cell proliferation and the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, which mediates cell growth and survival, but it is unclear whether this drug can enhance response rates when combined with cytotoxic therapy. Here, we evaluated the effects of canagliflozin on human NSCLC response to cytotoxic therapy in tissue cultures and xenografts. Ribonucleic acid sequencing (RNA-seq), real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), metabolic function, small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) knockdown, and protein expression assays were used in mechanistic analyses. We found that canagliflozin inhibited proliferation and clonogenic survival of NSCLC cells and augmented the efficacy of radiotherapy to mediate these effects and inhibit NSCLC xenograft growth. Canagliflozin treatment alone moderately inhibited mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and exhibited greater antiproliferative capacity than specific mitochondrial complex-I inhibitors. The treatment downregulated genes mediating hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α stability, metabolism and survival, activated adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and inhibited mTOR, a critical activator of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) signaling. HIF-1α knockdown and stabilization experiments suggested that canagliflozin mediates antiproliferative effects, in part, through suppression of HIF-1α. Transcriptional regulatory network analysis pinpointed histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2), a gene suppressed by canagliflozin, as a key mediator of canagliflozin's transcriptional reprogramming. HDAC2 knockdown eliminated HIF-1α levels and enhanced the antiproliferative effects of canagliflozin. HDAC2-regulated genes suppressed by canagliflozin are associated with poor prognosis in several clinical NSCLC datasets. In addition, we include evidence that canagliflozin also improves NSCLC response to chemotherapy. In summary, canagliflozin may be a promising therapy to develop in combination with cytotoxic therapy in NSCLC.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) serves as a critical glucose transporter that has been reported to be overexpressed in cancer models, followed by increased glucose uptake in both mice and humans. Inhibition of its expression can robustly thwart tumor development in vitro and in vivo. SGLT2 inhibitors are a comparatively new class of antidiabetic drugs that have demonstrated anticancer effects in several malignancies, including breast, liver, pancreatic, thyroid, prostate, and lung cancers. This review aims to assess the extent of SGLT involvement in different cancer cell lines and discuss the pharmacology, mechanisms of action, and potential applications of SGLT2 inhibitors to reduce tumorigenesis and its progression. Although these agents display a common mechanism of action, they exhibit distinct affinity towards the SGLT type 2 transporter compared to the SGLT type 1 transporter and varying extents of bioavailability and half-lives. While suppression of glucose uptake has been attributed to their primary mode of antidiabetic action, SGLT2 inhibitors have demonstrated several mechanistic ways to combat cancer, including mitochondrial membrane instability, suppression of β-catenin, and PI3K-Akt pathways, increase in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and downregulation of oxidative phosphorylation. Growing evidence and ongoing clinical trials suggest a potential benefit of combination therapy using an SGLT2 inhibitor with the standard chemotherapeutic regimen. Nevertheless, further experimental and clinical evidence is required to characterize the expression and role of SGLTs in different cancer types, the activity of different SGLT subtypes, and their role in tumor development and progression.

The Association of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors With Cardiovascular Outcomes in Anthracycline-Treated Patients With Cancer. JACC CardioOncol 2023; 5:318-328.

Abstract
Background Sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) are hypothesized to reduce the risk of anthracycline-associated cardiotoxicity. Objectives This study sought to determine the association between SGLT2is and cardiovascular disease (CVD) after anthracycline-containing chemotherapy. Methods Using administrative data sets, we conducted a population-based cohort study of people >65 years of age with treated diabetes and no prior heart failure (HF) who received anthracyclines between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2019. After estimating propensity scores for SGLT2i use, the average treatment effects for the treated weights were used to reduce baseline differences between SGLT2i-exposed and -unexposed controls. The outcomes were hospitalization for HF, incident HF diagnoses (in- or out-of-hospital), and documentation of any CVD in future hospitalizations. Death was treated as a competing risk. Cause-specific HRs for each outcome were determined for SGLT2i-treated people relative to unexposed controls. Results We studied 933 patients (median age 71.0 years, 62.2% female), 99 of whom were SGLT2i treated. During a median follow-up of 1.6 years, there were 31 hospitalizations for HF (0 in the SGLT2i group), 93 new HF diagnoses, and 74 hospitalizations with documented CVD. Relative to controls, SGLT2i exposure was associated with HR of 0 for HF hospitalization (P < 0.001) but no significant difference in incident HF diagnosis (HR: 0.55; 95% CI: 0.23-1.31; P = 0.18) or CVD diagnosis (HR: 0.39; 95% CI: 0.12-1.28; P = 0.12). There was no significant difference in mortality (HR: 0.63; 95% CI: 0.36-1.11; P = 0.11). Conclusions SGLT2is may reduce the rate of HF hospitalization after anthracycline-containing chemotherapy. This hypothesis warrants further testing in randomized controlled trials.

[PMID: 37247463 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Carfilzomib (CFZ) is a proteasome inhibitor approved for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM) but its clinical use is limited by cardiovascular toxicity. The mechanisms of CFZ-induced cardiovascular toxicity are not fully understood but endothelial dysfunction may be a common denominator. Here, we first characterized the direct toxic effects of CFZ on endothelial cells (HUVECs and EA.hy926 cells) and tested whether SGLT2 inhibitors, known to have cardioprotective effects, can protect against CFZ-induced toxicity. To determine the chemotherapeutic effect of CFZ in the presence of SGLT2 inhibitors, MM and lymphoma cells were treated with CFZ with or without canagliflozin. CFZ decreased cell viability and induced apoptotic cell death in endothelial cells in a concentration-dependent manner. CFZ also upregulated ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 and downregulated VEGFR-2. These effects were associated with the activation of Akt and MAPK pathways, inhibition of p70s6k, and downregulation of AMPK. Canagliflozin, but not empagliflozin or dapagliflozin, protected endothelial cells from CFZ-induced apoptosis. Mechanistically, canagliflozin abrogated CFZ-induced JNK activation and AMPK inhibition. AICAR (an AMPK activator) protected from CFZ-induced apoptosis, and compound C (an AMPK inhibitor) abrogated the protective effect of canagliflozin, strongly suggesting that AMPK mediates these effects. Canagliflozin did not interfere with the anticancer effect of CFZ in cancer cells. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate for the first time the direct toxic effects of CFZ in endothelial cells and the associated signaling changes. Canagliflozin abrogated the apoptotic effects of CFZ in endothelial cells in an AMPK-dependent mechanism, without interfering with its cytotoxicity in cancer cells.

Abstract
The number of diabetic patients has risen dramatically in recent decades, owing mostly to the rising incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Several oral antidiabetic medications are used for the treatment of T2DM including, α-glucosidases inhibitors, biguanides, sulfonylureas, meglitinides, GLP-1 receptor agonists, PPAR-γ agonists, DDP4 inhibitors, and SGLT2 inhibitors. In this review we focus on the possible effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on different body systems. Beyond the diabetic state, SGLT2 inhibitors have revealed a demonstrable ability to ameliorate cardiac remodeling, enhance myocardial function, and lower heart failure mortality. Additionally, SGLT2 inhibitors can modify adipocytes and their production of cytokines, such as adipokines and adiponectin, which enhances insulin sensitivity and delays diabetes onset. On the other hand, SGLT2 inhibitors have been linked to decreased total hip bone mineral deposition and increased hip bone resorption in T2DM patients. More data are needed to evaluate the role of SGLT2 inhibitors on cancer. Finally, the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on neuroprotection appear to be both direct and indirect, according to scientific investigations utilizing various experimental models. SGLT2 inhibitors improve vascular tone, elasticity, and contractility by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, insulin signaling pathways, and endothelial cell proliferation. They also improve brain function, synaptic plasticity, acetylcholinesterase activity, and reduce amyloid plaque formation, as well as regulation of the mTOR pathway in the brain, which reduces brain damage and cognitive decline.

Pharmacokinetic Interactions between Canagliflozin and Sorafenib or Lenvatinib in Rats. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27175419. [PMID: 36080187 PMCID: PMC9457773 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27175419] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2022] [Revised: 08/17/2022] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are common clinical conditions, and T2DM is an independent risk factor for HCC. Sorafenib and lenvatinib, two multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors, are first-line therapies for advanced HCC, while canagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor, is widely used in the treatment of T2DM. Here, we developed an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for the simultaneous determination of canagliflozin, sorafenib, and lenvatinib, and investigated the pharmacokinetic drug interactions between canagliflozin and sorafenib or lenvatinib in rats. The animals were randomly divided into five groups. Groups I–III were gavage administrated with sorafenib, lenvatinib, and canagliflozin, respectively. Group IV received sorafenib and canagliflozin; while Group V received lenvatinib and canagliflozin. The area under the plasma concentration-time curves (AUC) and maximum plasma concentrations (Cmax) of canagliflozin increased by 37.6% and 32.8%, respectively, while the apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F) and apparent clearance (CLz/F) of canagliflozin significantly decreased (30.6% and 28.6%, respectively) in the presence of sorafenib. Canagliflozin caused a significant increase in AUC and Cmax of lenvatinib by 28.9% and 36.2%, respectively, and a significant decrease in Vz/F and CLz/F of lenvatinib by 52.9% and 22.7%, respectively. In conclusion, drug interactions exist between canagliflozin and sorafenib or lenvatinib, and these findings provide a reference for the use of these drugs in patients with HCC and T2DM.
