Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors (gliflozins) represent the most recently approved class of oral antidiabetic drugs. SGLT-2 overexpression in diabetic patients contributes significantly to hyperglycemia and related complications. Therefore, SGLT-2 became a highly interesting therapeutic target, culminating in the approval for clinical use of dapagliflozin and analogues in the past decade. Gliflozins improve glycemic control through a novel insulin-independent mechanism of action and, moreover, exhibit significant cardiorenal protective effects in both diabetic and nondiabetic subjects. Therefore, gliflozins have received increasing attention, prompting extensive structure-activity relationship studies and optimization approaches. The discovery that intestinal SGLT-1 inhibition can provide a novel opportunity to control hyperglycemia, through a multifactorial mechanism, recently encouraged the design of low adsorbable inhibitors selectively directed to the intestinal SGLT-1 subtype as well as of dual SGLT-1/SGLT-2 inhibitors, representing a compelling strategy to identify new antidiabetic drug candidates.

Recent Advances in the Development of Type 2 Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter Inhibitors for the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Mini Rev Med Chem 2021; 22:586-599. [PMID: 34353256 DOI: 10.2174/1389557521666210805112416] [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: 04/03/2021] [Revised: 06/09/2021] [Accepted: 06/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most serious and prevalent diseases worldwide. In the last decade, type 2 sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors (iSGLT2) were approved as alternative drugs for the pharmacological treatment of T2DM. The anti-hyperglycemic mechanism of action of these drugs involves glycosuria. In addition, SGLT2 inhibitors cause beneficial effects such as weight loss, a decrease in blood pressure, and others. OBJECTIVE This review aimed to describe the origin of SGLT2 inhibitors and analyze their recent development in preclinical and clinical trials. RESULTS In 2013, the FDA approved SGLT2 inhibitors as a new alternative for the treatment of T2DM. These drugs have shown good tolerance with few adverse effects in clinical trials. Additionally, new potential anti-T2DM agents based on iSGLT2 (O-, C-, and N-glucosides) have exhibited a favorable profile in preclinical evaluations, making them candidates for advanced clinical trials. CONCLUSION The clinical results of SGLT2 inhibitors show the importance of this drug class as new anti-T2DM agents with a potential dual effect. Additionally, the preclinical results of SGLT2 inhibitors favor the design and development of more selective new agents. However, several adverse effects could be a potential risk for patients.

Biocomputational Prediction Approach Targeting FimH by Natural SGLT2 Inhibitors: A Possible Way to Overcome the Uropathogenic Effect of SGLT2 Inhibitor Drugs. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26030582.

Abstract
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a new class of anti-diabetic medication (a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor) in 2013. However, SGLT2 inhibitor drugs are under evaluation due to their associative side effects, such as urinary tract and genital infection, urinary discomfort, diabetic ketosis, and kidney problems. Even clinicians have difficulty in recommending it to diabetic patients due to the increased probability of urinary tract infection. In our study, we selected natural SGLT2 inhibitors, namely acerogenin B, formononetin, (-)-kurarinone, (+)-pteryxin, and quinidine, to explore their potential against an emerging uropathogenic bacterial therapeutic target, i.e., FimH. FimH plays a critical role in the colonization of uropathogenic bacteria on the urinary tract surface. Thus, FimH antagonists show promising effects against uropathogenic bacterial strains via their targeting of FimH's adherence mechanism with less chance of resistance. The molecular docking results showed that, among natural SGLT2 inhibitors, formononetin, (+)-pteryxin, and quinidine have a strong interaction with FimH proteins, with binding energy (∆G) and inhibition constant (ki) values of -5.65 kcal/mol and 71.95 µM, -5.50 kcal/mol and 92.97 µM, and -5.70 kcal/mol and 66.40 µM, respectively. These interactions were better than those of the positive control heptyl α-d-mannopyranoside and far better than those of the SGLT2 inhibitor drug canagliflozin. Furthermore, a 50 ns molecular dynamics simulation was conducted to optimize the interaction, and the resulting complexes were found to be stable. Physicochemical property assessments predicted little toxicity and good drug-likeness properties for these three compounds. Therefore, formononetin, (+)-pteryxin, and quinidine can be proposed as promising SGLT2 inhibitors drugs, with add-on FimH inhibition potential that might reduce the probability of uropathogenic side effects.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic progressive metabolic disease caused by insulin deficiency or insulin resistance. In spite of the availability of several antihyperglycaemics, there is a need for the development of safer antidiabetic drugs due to their undesirable effects. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors are a class of antidiabetics, which hinder the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys, causing excretion of glucose via urine. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors are a well-tolerated class with no significant adverse effects and are found to be favorable in certain conditions, which may be rudimentary to cardiovascular and renal diseases. The current advancements in their design and development, their mechanism of action, structure–activity relationship, synthesis and in silico development along with their auxiliary roles have been extensively reviewed.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is the global health issue and become an alarming threat in the modern era where human lifestyle gets compromised with modernization. According to the latest statistical report 2020, USA has 9.47% (31 million among 32.72 cr), China has 8.3% (116.4 million among 139.27 cr) and India has 5.6% (77 million among 135.26 cr) of the diabetic people, indicating that diabetes is more prevailing in developed countries as compared to the developing countries. The number of diabetic patients is rising day by day at a tremendous rate and soon it may affect each and every person in a family. So, there is an urgent need to develop novel entities that can meet the scarcity of present antidiabetic agents. In the last few decades, the sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) has emerged as a prominent target for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus due to its novel mechanism of action & no involvement in insulin signaling pathway. Most of the inhibitors that target SGLT2 contain three basic moieties: glucose, two benzene rings (one is connected with glucose and the other with methylene), and the methylene bridge which are similar to dapagliflozin. Several SGLT2 inhibitors and their derivatives such as remogliflozin etabonate (phase-II), sotagliflozin (phase-III) and bexagliflozin (phase-III) are under different phases of clinical trial studies and some have been patented. The present review is focused on SGLT2 inhibitors, structure activity relationships (SARs) of dapagliflozin and its several analogues for their binding affinity with SGLT2. We have also presented and summarized the efforts made by various researchers in terms of the synthesis of various dapagliflozin derivatives till date.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus currently affects as many as 400 million people worldwide, creating a heavy economic burden and stretching health care resources. A dysfunction of glucose homeostasis underlies the disease. Despite advances in the treatment of diabetes, many patients still suffer from complications and side effects; hence, development of more effective treatments for diabetes is still desirable. SGLT2 is the principle cotransporter involved in glucose reabsorption in the kidney. SGLT2 inhibition reduces glucose reabsorption by the kidney and ameliorates plasma glucose concentration. The interest in natural products that can be used for the inhibition of SGLT2 is growing. The flavonoid phlorizin, which can be isolated from the bark of apple trees, has been used as lead structure due to its inhibitory activity of SGLT1 and SGLT2. Some phlorizin-derived synthetic compounds, including canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, empagliflozin, ipragliflozin, and ertugliflozin, are approved by the food and drug administration to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), whereas others are under clinical trials investigation. In addition, other natural product-derived compounds have been investigated for their ability to improve blood glucose control. The present review summarizes the natural products with SGLT2 inhibitory activity, and the synthetic compounds obtained from them, and discusses their application for the treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
The aberrant presentation of carbohydrates has been linked to a number of diseases, such as cancer metastasis and immune dysregulation. These altered glycan structures represent a target for novel therapies by modulating their associated interactions with neighboring cells and molecules. Although these interactions are highly specific, native carbohydrates are characterized by very low affinities and inherently poor pharmacokinetic properties. Glycomimetic compounds, which mimic the structure and function of native glycans, have been successful in producing molecules with improved pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) features. Several strategies have been developed for glycomimetic design such as ligand pre-organization or reducing polar surface area. A related approach to developing glycomimetics relies on the bioisosteric replacement of carbohydrate functional groups. These changes can offer improvements to both binding affinity (e.g., reduced desolvation costs, enhanced metal chelation) and pharmacokinetic parameters (e.g., improved oral bioavailability). Several examples of bioisosteric modifications to carbohydrates have been reported; this review aims to consolidate them and presents different possibilities for enhancing core interactions in glycomimetics.

Abstract
Synthesis and biological evaluation of benzocyclobutane-C-glycosides as potent and orally active SGLT1/SGLT2 dual inhibitors are described. Compound 19 showed high inhibitory potency at SGLT1 (IC50 = 45 nM), and excellent potency at SGLT2 (IC50 = 1 nM). It also displayed excellent PK profiles in mice, rats, dogs and monkeys (F = 78-107%). In SD rats, compound 19 treatments significantly reduced blood glucose levels in a dose-dependent manner. In ZDF rats, compound 19 displayed anti-hyperglycemic effect up to 24 h. Therefore, compound 19 may serve as valuable pharmacological tool, and potential use as a treatment for metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
1. Several sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are in clinical use for the management of type 2 diabetes. The objectives of the current review were: (a) to provide a comparative pharmacokinetics including absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretory (ADME) profiles of three SGLT-2 inhibitors namely: sergliflozin, remogliflozin and ertugliflozin; (b) to provide some perspectives on possible developmental issues. 2. Based on the half-life (t1/2) values observed in humans, the rank order of the three SGLT-2 inhibitors was ertugliflozin (16 h) > remogliflozin (2-4 h) > sergliflozin (1-1.5 h). Therefore, while once a day dosing of ertugliflozin is possible, the other two drugs need to be dosed more frequently. Perhaps, the short t1/2 of sergliflozin may have contributed for its discontinuation. 3. Although there was paucity of published data on the metabolism, transporter related and excretory aspects for sergliflozin, the other two drugs provided a differentiating profile. However, the compiled data suggested that there may be a minimal or no risk of pharmacokinetic drug interaction issues associated with any of the reviewed drugs. 4. Because of the crowded development pipeline and approved SGLT-2 inhibitors, the safety and efficacy of sergliflozin, remogliflozin and ertugliflozin appear to be a key from differentiation perspective.
