Liu Z, Kong H, Zhang B. Narrative literature review of antidiabetic drugs' effect on hyperuricemia: elaborating actual data and mechanisms. Endocr Connect 2024; 13:e240070. [PMID: 38579756 PMCID: PMC11103759 DOI: 10.1530/ec-24-0070] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
To optimize the treatment plan for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hyperuricemia, this narrative literature review summarizes the effect of antidiabetic drugs on serum uric acid (SUA) levels using data from observational studies, prospective clinical trials, post hoc analyses, and meta-analyses. SUA is an independent risk factor for T2DM, and evidence has shown that patients with both gout and T2DM exhibit a mutually interdependent effect on higher incidences. We find that insulin and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) except linagliptin could increase the SUA and other drugs including metformin, thiazolidinediones (TZDs), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), linagliptin, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), and α-glucosidase inhibitors have a reduction effect on SUA. We explain the mechanisms of different antidiabetic drugs above on SUA and analyze them compared with actual data. For sulfonylureas, meglitinides, and amylin analogs, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. We think the usage of linagliptin and SGLT2i is the most potentially effective treatment of patients with T2DM and hyperuricemia currently. Our review is a comprehensive summary of the effects of antidiabetic drugs on SUA, which includes actual data, the mechanisms of SUA regulation, and the usage rate of drugs.

Anti-Inflammatory Potential of the Anti-Diabetic Drug Metformin in the Prevention of Inflammatory Complications and Infectious Diseases Including COVID-19: A Narrative Review. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:5190. [PMID: 38791227 PMCID: PMC11121530 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25105190] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Metformin, a widely used first-line anti-diabetic therapy for the treatment of type-2 diabetes, has been shown to lower hyperglycemia levels in the blood by enhancing insulin actions. For several decades this drug has been used globally to successfully control hyperglycemia. Lactic acidosis has been shown to be a major adverse effect of metformin in some type-2 diabetic patients, but several studies suggest that it is a typically well-tolerated and safe drug in most patients. Further, recent studies also indicate its potential to reduce the symptoms associated with various inflammatory complications and infectious diseases including coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). These studies suggest that besides diabetes, metformin could be used as an adjuvant drug to control inflammatory and infectious diseases. In this article, we discuss the current understanding of the role of the anti-diabetic drug metformin in the prevention of various inflammatory complications and infectious diseases in both diabetics and non-diabetics.

[Value of C-peptide-based insulin resistance index for evaluating correlation between insulin resistance and serum uric acid level in individuals undergoing health examination]. NAN FANG YI KE DA XUE XUE BAO = JOURNAL OF SOUTHERN MEDICAL UNIVERSITY 2023; 43:1509-1514. [PMID: 37814865 PMCID: PMC10563103 DOI: 10.12122/j.issn.1673-4254.2023.09.08] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2022] [Indexed: 10/11/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the value of C-peptide-based insulin resistance index in evaluating the correlation between insulin resistance and serum uric acid (Ua) level in subjects undergoing health examination. METHODS The data of 46 017 subjects undergoing health examination were retrospectively collected from the Second Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from January, 2017 to December, 2021. The subjects were divided into Ua≤420 μmol/L group and Ua>420 μmol/L group for comparison of HOMA insulin resistance index (HOMA2-IR) and HOMA insulin resistance-C peptide (HOMA2 IR-CP). The correlations of HOMA2-IR and HOMA2 IR-CP with Ua level were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis and linear regression analysis. Hierarchical interaction analysis was conducted to assess the differences in the association between insulin resistance index and Ua level in different subgroups. The ROC curve was used to evaluate the predictive ability of insulin resistance index for an increased Ua level. RESULTS The levels of HOMA2-IR and HOMA2 IR-CP were significantly lower in Ua≤420 μmol/L group than in Ua>420 μmol/L group. Univariate Pearson correlation analysis showed a weak correlation of HOMA2-IR with Ua (r=0.262, P<0.001) and moderate correlation of HOMA2 IR-CP with Ua (r=0.409, P<0.001). Multivariate linear regression analysis, after adjustment for confounding factors, demonstrated that HOMA2-IR (R2=0.445, P<0.001) and HOMA2 IR-CP (R2=0.461, P<0.001) were both factors affecting Ua level. Hierarchical interaction analysis showed that the association of insulin resistance index with Ua level varied significantly with gender, age, and glucose metabolism (P<0.001). ROC curve showed that the areas under the curve predicted an increased Ua level by HOMA2-IR and HOMA2 IR-CP were 0.662 and 0.722, respectively. CONCLUSIONS HOMA2 IR-CP is a more accurate indicator for assessing the correlation between insulin resistance and Ua level.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality and disability among both males and females. The risk of cardiovascular diseases is heightened by the presence of a risk factor cluster of metabolic syndrome, covering obesity and obesity-related cardiometabolic risk factors such as hypertension, glucose, and lipid metabolism dysregulation primarily. Sex hormones contribute to metabolic regulation and make women and men susceptible to obesity development in a different manner, which necessitates sex-specific management. Identifying crucial factors that protect the cardiovascular system is essential to enhance primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases and should be explicitly studied from the perspective of sex differences. It seems that AMP-dependent protein kinase (AMPK) may be such a factor since it has the protective role of AMPK in the cardiovascular system, has anti-diabetic properties, and is regulated by sex hormones. Those findings highlight the potential cardiometabolic benefits of AMPK, making it an essential factor to consider. Here, we review information about the cross-talk between AMPK and sex hormones as a critical point in cardiometabolic disease development and progression and a target for therapeutic intervention in human disease.

Ameliorative effects of mangiferin derivative TPX on insulin resistance via PI3K/AKT and AMPK signaling pathways in human HepG2 and HL-7702 hepatocytes. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 114:154740. [PMID: 36965373 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2023.154740] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2022] [Revised: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND As a multifaceted metabolic disorder, insulin resistance is accompanied by the preceding onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus, hyperinsulinemia, metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and other metabolic syndromes. Currently, the number of existing drugs and mechanism-based strategies is limited to alleviate insulin resistance in clinics. As a natural polyphenol product derivative, 1,3,6,7-tetrapropylene acyloxy-ketone (TPX) showed a significant hypoglycemic effect in our previous studies. However, whether TPX could improve hepatic insulin sensitivity was unknown. PURPOSE To explore whether insulin sensitivity can be improved by the treatment with TPX and further investigate its mechanism(s) of activity. METHODS To mimic hyperglycemia and insulin resistance in vitro, human HepG2 and HL-7702 hepatocytes were exposed to high glucose. Cellular glucose uptake, glucose consumption, glycogen synthesis, and glucose production were quantified after TPX treatment. The effects of TPX on AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation, glucose metabolism, and insulin signal transduction were evaluated by western blotting and network pharmacology analysis. The eGFP-membrane of glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4) lentivirus transfected cells were constructed to investigate the effects of TPX on GLUT4 mobilization. Reactive oxygen species activity in high glucose-induced insulin-resistant cells was measured by DCFH-DA to show oxidative stress. RESULTS Treatment with TPX improved glycogen synthesis and inhibited gluconeogenesis by regulating GSK3β, G6Pase, and PEPCK. Furthermore, high glucose-induced inhibition of glucose consumption, glucose uptake, and GLUT4-mediated membrane translocation were reverted by TPX. Accordingly, mechanistic investigations revealed that TPX interacted with AMPK protein and activated the phosphorylation of AKT, thereby improving energy homeostasis and further ameliorating hepatic insulin resistance. Network pharmacology analysis and molecular docking further confirmed AMPK as an active target of TPX. Concordantly, the pharmacological activity of TPX was reversed by the AMPK inhibitor compound C when hepatocytes were exposed to high glucose stimulation. CONCLUSION In summary, our study confirmed TPX contributions to insulin resistance improvements by targeting AMPK and PI3K/AKT to restore the insulin signaling pathway, which may be an important potential treatment strategy for insulin-resistance-related diseases, including MAFLD and diabetes.

Abstract
Hyperuricemia is a metabolic disease caused by purine nucleotide metabolism disorder. The prevalence of hyperuricemia is increasing worldwide, with a growing trend in the younger populations. Although numerous studies have indicated that hyperuricemia may be an independent risk factor for insulin resistance, the causal relationship between the two is controversial. There are few reviews, however, focusing on the relationship between uric acid (UA) and insulin resistance from experimental studies. In this review, we summarized the experimental models related to soluble UA-induced insulin resistance in pancreas and peripheral tissues, including skeletal muscles, adipose tissue, liver, heart/cardiomyocytes, vascular endothelial cells and macrophages. In addition, we summarized the research advances about the key mechanism of UA-induced insulin resistance. Moreover, we attempt to identify novel targets for the treatment of hyperuricemia-related insulin resistance. Lastly, we hope that the present review will encourage further researches to solve the chicken-and-egg dilemma between UA and insulin resistance, and provide strategies for the pathogenesis and treatment of hyperuricemia related metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Hyperuricemia (HUA) is associated with left ventricular remodeling (LVR) and thereby causes the initiation and development of a large number of cardiovascular diseases. LVR is typically accompanied by cardiomyocyte energy metabolic disorder. The energy supply of cardiomyocytes is provided by glucose and fatty acid (FA) metabolism. Currently, the effect of HUA on cardiomyocytic FA metabolism is unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that UA-induced cardiomyocyte injury is associated with cytoplasmic lipid deposition, which can be ameliorated by the FA metabolism-promoting drug L-carnitine (LC). UA suppresses carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1B (CPT1B), thereby inhibiting FA transport into the mitochondrial inner matrix for elimination. LC intervention can ameliorate HUA-associated left ventricular anterior wall thickening in mice. This study showed that FA transport dysfunction plays is a critical mechanism in both cardiomyocytic injury and HUA-associated LVR and promoting cytoplasmic FA transportation through pharmacological treatment by LC is a valid strategy to attenuate HUA-associated LVR.

Abstract
Cancer is a disease caused when cells divide uncontrollably and spread into surrounding tissues. There are different therapeutic modalities that control cancer growth, of which surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment approach in which medications are used to inhibit cell proliferation and tumor multiplication, thus avoiding invasion and metastasis and thus eradicate cancer. One of the common complications associated with cancer chemotherapy is rapid lysis of expanding tumor cells, known as tumor lysis syndrome (TLS). TLS is associated with number of metabolic changes such as hyperuricemia, hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia and hypocalcemia. Among the consequences of hyperuricemia, hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia and hypocalcemia is the inhibition of 5' AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Inhibition of AMPK induced different cancer chemo-resistance mechanisms such as cancer stem cells (CSCs), p-glycoproteins, Octamer-binding transcription factor 4 (OCT-4), homeobox protein NANOG, Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) and immune microenvironment and thus leads to poor response to chemotherapy and even relapses after treatment. Our review aims to uncover new mechanisms underlying the metabolic consequences of tumor lysis on AMPK in tumor microenvironment. In this review, we also investigated the effect of AMPK on different cancer chemo-resistance mechanisms such as cancer stem cells, p-glycoproteins, OCT-4, NANOG, KLF4 and immune microenvironment.

Abstract
Background The prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA) has been increasing in recent years. HUA is a crucial risk factor for gout and an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Identifying potentially modifiable factors of HUA is vital for preventing gout and even CVDs. This study aimed to explore the associations of fat distribution with HUA among middle-aged and elderly people in Chongqing, China. Materials and methods A cross-sectional study was conducted between July 2020 and September 2021. People who underwent quantitative computed tomography (QCT) scans were invited to participate in the study. A total of 3,683 individuals whose clinical characteristics and QCT-based fat distribution measurements included visceral fat area (VFA), subcutaneous fat area (SFA), and liver fat content (LFC) were well-recorded were included. HUA was defined as having a serum uric acid level greater than 420.0 μmol/L. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between these adipose variables and HUA prevalence. Results The HUA prevalence was 25.6% (943/3,683), which was 39.6% (817/2,063) in men and 7.8% (126/1,620) in women. In the fully adjusted model (model 4), the comparison of the highest one with the lowest quartiles of adipose variables showed that the multivariable OR (95% confidence intervals) of HUA were 2.08 (1.36-3.16; P for trend = 0.001) for VFA, 0.89 (0.63-1.25; P for trend = 0.651) for SFA, and 1.83 (1.42-2.34; P for trend < 0.0001) for LFC. For VFA, the association was more evident in men than in women. Conclusion Higher VFA and LFC were significantly associated with the increased prevalence of HUA in middle-aged and elderly Chinese individuals. VFA and LFC may have a predictive effect on HUA. Controlling visceral and liver fat accumulation may be beneficial for middle-aged and older people. HUA can be prevented with specific effective healthy physical activity and balanced diet guidelines.

Metformin: Expanding the Scope of Application-Starting Earlier than Yesterday, Canceling Later. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23042363.

Abstract
Today the area of application of metformin is expanding, and a wealth of data point to its benefits in people without carbohydrate metabolism disorders. Already in the population of people leading an unhealthy lifestyle, before the formation of obesity and prediabetes metformin smooths out the adverse effects of a high-fat diet. Being prescribed at this stage, metformin will probably be able to, if not prevent, then significantly reduce the progression of all subsequent metabolic changes. To a large extent, this review will discuss the proofs of the evidence for this. Another recent important change is a removal of a number of restrictions on its use in patients with heart failure, acute coronary syndrome and chronic kidney disease. We will discuss the reasons for these changes and present a new perspective on the role of increasing lactate in metformin therapy.

AMPK signaling in diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance and diabetic complications: A pre-clinical and clinical investigation. Biomed Pharmacother 2022; 146:112563. [PMID: 35062059 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2021.112563] [Citation(s) in RCA: 92] [Impact Index Per Article: 46.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2021] [Revised: 12/16/2021] [Accepted: 12/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is considered as a main challenge in both developing and developed countries, as lifestyle has changed and its management seems to be vital. Type I and type II diabetes are the main kinds and they result in hyperglycemia in patients and related complications. The gene expression alteration can lead to development of DM and related complications. The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an energy sensor with aberrant expression in various diseases including cancer, cardiovascular diseases and DM. The present review focuses on understanding AMPK role in DM. Inducing AMPK signaling promotes glucose in DM that is of importance for ameliorating hyperglycemia. Further investigation reveals the role of AMPK signaling in enhancing insulin sensitivity for treatment of diabetic patients. Furthermore, AMPK upregulation inhibits stress and cell death in β cells that is of importance for preventing type I diabetes development. The clinical studies on diabetic patients have shown the role of AMPK signaling in improving diabetic complications such as brain disorders. Furthermore, AMPK can improve neuropathy, nephropathy, liver diseases and reproductive alterations occurring during DM. For exerting such protective impacts, AMPK signaling interacts with other molecular pathways such as PGC-1α, PI3K/Akt, NOX4 and NF-κB among others. Therefore, providing therapeutics based on AMPK targeting can be beneficial for amelioration of DM.

Hyperuricemia contributes to glucose intolerance of hepatic inflammatory macrophages and impairs the insulin signaling pathway via IRS2-proteasome degradation. Front Immunol 2022; 13:931087. [PMID: 36177037 PMCID: PMC9513153 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.931087] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM Numerous reports have demonstrated the key importance of macrophage-elicited metabolic inflammation in insulin resistance (IR). Our previous studies confirmed that hyperuricemia or high uric acid (HUA) treatment induced an IR state in several peripheral tissues to promote the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the effect of HUA on glucose uptake and the insulin sensitivity of macrophages and its mechanism is unclear. METHODS To assess systemic IR, we generated hyperuricemic mice by urate oxidase knockout (UOX-KO). Then, glucose/insulin tolerance, the tissue uptake of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose, body composition, and energy balance were assessed. Glucose uptake of circulating infiltrated macrophages in the liver was evaluated by glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT-4) staining. Insulin sensitivity and the insulin signaling pathway of macrophages were demonstrated using the 2-NBDG kit, immunoblotting, and immunofluorescence assays. The immunoprecipitation assay and LC-MS analysis were used to determine insulin receptor substrate 2 (IRS2) levels and its interacting protein enrichment under HUA conditions. RESULTS Compared to WT mice (10 weeks old), serum uric acid levels were higher in UOX-KO mice (WT, 182.3 ± 5.091 μM versus KO, 421.9 ± 45.47 μM). Hyperuricemic mice with metabolic disorders and systemic IR showed inflammatory macrophage recruitment and increased levels of circulating proinflammatory cytokines. HUA inhibited the nuclear translocation of GLUT-4 in hepatic macrophages, restrained insulin-induced glucose uptake and glucose tolerance, and blocked insulin IRS2/PI3K/AKT signaling. Meanwhile, HUA mediated the IRS2 protein degradation pathway and activated AMPK/mTOR in macrophages. LC-MS analysis showed that ubiquitination degradation could be involved in IRS2 and its interacting proteins to contribute to IR under HUA conditions. CONCLUSION The data suggest that HUA-induced glucose intolerance in hepatic macrophages contributed to insulin resistance and impaired the insulin signaling pathway via IRS2-proteasome degradation.

Effects of Metformin in Heart Failure: From Pathophysiological Rationale to Clinical Evidence. Biomolecules 2021; 11:biom11121834. [PMID: 34944478 PMCID: PMC8698925 DOI: 10.3390/biom11121834] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2021] [Revised: 11/26/2021] [Accepted: 12/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a worldwide major health burden and heart failure (HF) is the most common cardiovascular (CV) complication in affected patients. Therefore, identifying the best pharmacological approach for glycemic control, which is also useful to prevent and ameliorate the prognosis of HF, represents a crucial issue. Currently, the choice is between the new drugs sodium/glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors that have consistently shown in large CV outcome trials (CVOTs) to reduce the risk of HF-related outcomes in T2DM, and metformin, an old medicament that might end up relegated to the background while exerting interesting protective effects on multiple organs among which include heart failure. When compared with other antihyperglycemic medications, metformin has been demonstrated to be safe and to lower morbidity and mortality for HF, even if these results are difficult to interpret as they emerged mainly from observational studies. Meta-analyses of randomized controlled clinical trials have not produced positive results on the risk or clinical course of HF and sadly, large CV outcome trials are lacking. The point of force of metformin with respect to new diabetic drugs is the amount of data from experimental investigations that, for more than twenty years, still continues to provide mechanistic explanations of the several favorable actions in heart failure such as, the improvement of the myocardial energy metabolic status by modulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, the attenuation of oxidative stress and inflammation, and the inhibition of myocardial cell apoptosis, leading to reduced cardiac remodeling and preserved left ventricular function. In the hope that specific large-scale trials will be carried out to definitively establish the metformin benefit in terms of HF failure outcomes, we reviewed the literature in this field, summarizing the available evidence from experimental and clinical studies reporting on effects in heart metabolism, function, and structure, and the prominent pathophysiological mechanisms involved.

Abstract
Disorders of uric acid metabolism may be associated with pathological processes in many diseases, including diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, and kidney disease. These diseases can further promote uric acid accumulation in the body, leading to a vicious cycle. Preliminary studies have proven many mechanisms such as oxidative stress, lipid metabolism disorders, and rennin angiotensin axis involving in the progression of hyperuricaemia-related diseases. However, there is still lack of effective clinical treatment for hyperuricaemia. According to previous research results, NPT1, NPT4, OAT1, OAT2, OAT3, OAT4, URAT1, GLUT9, ABCG2, PDZK1, these urate transports are closely related to serum uric acid level. Targeting at urate transporters and urate-lowering drugs can enhance our understanding of hyperuricaemia and hyperuricaemia-related diseases. This review may put forward essential references or cross references to be contributed to further elucidate traditional and novel urate-lowering drugs benefits as well as provides theoretical support for the scientific research on hyperuricemia and related diseases.

J Cell Mol Med 2021; 25:6733-6745. [PMID: 34053175 PMCID: PMC8278091 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.16677] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2021] [Revised: 05/04/2021] [Accepted: 05/08/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
High uric acid (HUA) is associated with insulin resistance (IR) in cardiomyocytes. We investigated whether metformin protects against HUA-induced IR in cardiomyocytes. We exposed primary cardiomyocytes to HUA, and cellular glucose uptake was quantified by measuring the uptake of 2-NBDG, a fluorescent glucose analog. Western blot was used to examine the levels of signalling protein. Membrane of glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4) was analysed by immunofluorescence. We monitored the impact of metformin on HUA-induced IR and in myocardial tissue of an acute hyperuricaemia mouse model established by potassium oxonate treatment. Treatment with metformin protected against HUA-reduced glucose uptake induced by insulin in cardiomyocytes. HUA directly inhibited the phosphorylation of Akt and the translocation of GLUT4 induced by insulin, which was blocked by metformin. Metformin promoted phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and restored the insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in HUA-induced IR cardiomyocytes. As a result of these effects, in a mouse model of acute hyperuricaemia, metformin improved insulin tolerance and glucose tolerance, accompanied by increased AMPK phosphorylation, Akt phosphorylation and translocation of GLUT4 in myocardial tissues. As expected, AICAR, another AMPK activator, had similar effects to metformin, demonstrating the important role of AMPK activation in protecting against IR induced by HUA in cardiomyocytes. Metformin protects against IR induced by HUA in cardiomyocytes and improves insulin tolerance and glucose tolerance in an acute hyperuricaemic mouse model, along with the activation of AMPK. Consequently, metformin may be an important potential new treatment strategy for hyperuricaemia-related cardiovascular disease.
