Effects of tofogliflozin on adrenocorticotropic hormone, renin and aldosterone, and cortisol levels in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus: A retrospective study of a patient cohort. Medicine (Baltimore) 2021; 100:e27638. [PMID: 34766565 PMCID: PMC8589243 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000027638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2021] [Accepted: 10/09/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol reportedly play a role in glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, the underlying mechanism remains controversial. We retrospectively investigated the effect of tofogliflozin on serum ACTH and cortisol levels in elderly patients with T2DM.Patients received 20 mg tofogliflozin daily for 3 months. Serum ACTH and cortisol levels were measured at baseline, as well as after 1 month and 3 months of tofogliflozin therapy.Serum ACTH levels were significantly reduced 3 months after tofogliflozin treatment (P < .01). Additionally, serum cortisol levels were reduced 3 months after tofogliflozin treatment, demonstrating borderline significance (P = .05). The higher body mass index (BMI; ≥25 kg/m2) group showed higher ACTH and cortisol levels than the lower BMI (<25 kg/m2) group, with borderline significance (P = .05). Renin levels were significantly increased 1 month after treatment (P < .05), maintaining serum aldosterone levels in parallel with the extracellular fluid.Our findings suggested that tofogliflozin decreased both serum ACTH and cortisol levels, with higher levels observed in the high BMI group. Tofogliflozin increased serum renin levels while maintaining serum aldosterone and extracellular fluid levels. Collectively, tofogliflozin could affect the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal pathway in patients with T2DM, especially in the low BMI group.

[PMID: 33563713 DOI: 10.1136/postgradmedj-2020-139348] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2020] [Revised: 01/12/2021] [Accepted: 01/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are the latest introduction into the armamentarium of diabetes care in the present decade. By virtue of their beneficial effects, such as blood pressure-lowering, bodyweight reduction and significant renal and cardioprotective effects which extends beyond their glycaemic control effects, SGLT2i have become one of the most preferred oral antihyperglycaemic agents of recent times. However, they can influence tubular handling of electrolytes that can result in some electrolyte disturbances such as alteration in the serum levels of magnesium, potassium and phosphate levels. Some of these changes are mild or transient and may not have significant clinical implications. The underlying putative mechanism(s) responsible for disturbances of electrolytes are yet to be deciphered. In this review, we aim to describe electrolytes and acid-base abnormalities due to SGLT2i as well as to elucidate the underlying mechanism.

[PMID: 31086522 PMCID: PMC6500813 DOI: 10.12669/pjms.35.2.21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2018] [Revised: 12/12/2018] [Accepted: 01/28/2019] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this study we aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin addition to diabetic patients using high dose insulin. METHODS The current study was carried out in the outpatient diabetic clinics of Fatih Sultan Mehmet Education and Research Hospital. Thirty diabetic patients who were receiving high dose (>0,5U/kg) insulin and oral antidiabetic treatment (other than SGLT 2 inhibitors) were included in this study. Primary end point was the change in HbA1c, insulin doses and serum electrolyte from the addition of dapagliflozin 10 mg to the week 12. RESULTS At the end of three month BMI were obviously decreased from 33.31 ±4.51 to 32.14 ±4.66 (p: 0.001). There was also an evident decrease of insulin requirement from 76 ±23.15 U/kg to 57.60 ±17.61 U/day (p<0.001). As well as the decrease in insulin doses, there was also a significant decline in HbA1c (Δ 1.6 %) and fasting blood glucose levels (Δ68.6 mg/dl) (p<0.001). Among serum electrolyte levels slight but meaningful increase of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and sodium (Na) levels were seen (p: 0.044 and p: 0.026). There were no significant changes in serum cholesterol levels with electrolytes such as potassium, calcium, phosphorus magnesium and vitamin D (p> 0.05). CONCLUSION In diabetic patients with inadequately controlled glucose regulation despite high-dose insulin therapy, dapagliflozin may be an alternative combination choice to decrease the need of insulin dose and obtain an optimal HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose levels and weight without major side effects.
