[PMID: 37941891 PMCID: PMC10629451 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s416025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/20/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective We investigated the efficacy and safety of dotinurad, a selective urate reabsorption inhibitor, in hyperuricemic patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) (stage G3-5). Patients and Methods We retrospectively analyzed the cases of 34 patients (mean age, 68.6 ± 13.3 years; 17 men and 17 women) after 12 months of dotinurad treatment based on the changes in uric acid (UA) and the urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR) plus the annual change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Hyperuricemia (UA ≥6.0 mg/dL) and advanced CKD (mean eGFR: 32.0 ± 13.3 mL/min/1.73m2; stage G3, n=17; G4, n=13; G5, n=4) were present in all of the patients. The cases of 34 matched individuals with similar propensity scores (who were not taking dotinurad) were analyzed as a control group. Results UA values decreased significantly in the dotinurad group (7.1 ± 0.8 mg/dL to 5.9 ± 1.0 mg/dL, p<0.05) but those did not change in the control group. UPCR did not change in either group. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol also decreased significantly in the dotinurad group (98.8 ± 43.4 mg/dL to 82.9 ± 33.1 mg/dL, p<0.05). With the 12-month dotinurad treatment, the annual change in the patients' eGFR was significantly improved from -6.0 ± 12.9 mL/min/1.73 m2/year to -0.9 ± 4.6 mL/min/1.73 m2/year (p<0.05), but there was no change in the control group. Conclusion Dotinurad can decrease UA levels and might attenuate renal function decline in individuals with hyperuricemia and advanced CKD.

Diabetes Ther 2023:10.1007/s13300-023-01438-w. [PMID: 37410308 PMCID: PMC10363101 DOI: 10.1007/s13300-023-01438-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Evidence of a direct comparison between dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) remains lacking, and no clear treatment strategy or rationale has been established using these drugs. This study aimed to compare the overall efficacy and safety of DPP-4is and the SGLT2i luseogliflozin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS Patients with T2DM who had not used antidiabetic agents or who had used antidiabetic agents other than SGLT2is and DPP-4is were enrolled in the study after written informed consent had been obtained. The enrolled patients were subsequently randomly assigned to either the luseogliflozin or DPP-4i group and followed up for 52 weeks. The primary (composite) endpoint was the proportion of patients who showed improvement in ≥ 3 endpoints among the following five endpoints from baseline to week 52: glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), weight, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), systolic blood pressure, and pulse rate. RESULTS A total of 623 patients were enrolled in the study and subsequently randomized to either the luseogliflozin or DPP-4i groups. The proportion of patients who showed improvement in ≥ 3 endpoints at week 52 was significantly higher in the luseogliflozin group (58.9%) than in the DPP-4i group (35.0%) (p < 0.001). When stratified by body mass index (BMI) (< 25 or ≥ 25 kg/m2) or age (< 65 or ≥ 65 years), regardless of BMI or age, the proportion of patients who achieved the composite endpoint was significantly higher in the luseogliflozin group than in the DPP-4i group. Hepatic function and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol were also significantly improved in the luseogliflozin group compared with the DPP-4i group. The frequency of non-serious/serious adverse events did not differ between the groups. CONCLUSION This study showed the overall efficacy of luseogliflozin compared with DPP-4is over the mid/long term, regardless of BMI or age. The results suggest the importance of assessing multiple aspects regarding the effects of diabetes management. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER jRCTs031180241.

MD Simulation Studies for Selective Phytochemicals as Potential Inhibitors against Major Biological Targets of Diabetic Nephropathy. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27154980.

Abstract
Diabetes is emerging as an epidemic and is becoming a public health concern worldwide. Diabetic nephropathy is one of the serious complications of diabetes, and about 40% of individuals with diabetes develop diabetic nephropathy. The consistent feature of diabetes and its associated nephropathy is hyperglycemia, and in some cases, hyperamylinemia. Currently, the treatment includes the use of medication for blood pressure control, sugar control, and cholesterol control, and in the later stage requires dialysis and kidney transplantation, making the management of this complication very difficult. Bioactive compounds, herbal medicines, and extracts are extensively used in the treatment and prevention of several diseases, and some are reported to be efficacious in diabetes too. Therefore, in this study, we tried to identify the therapeutic potential of phytochemicals used in in silico docking and molecular dynamic simulation studies using a library of 5284 phytochemicals against the two potential targets of type 2 diabetes-associated nephropathy. We identified two phytochemicals (i.e., gentisic acid and michelalbine) that target human amylin peptide and dipeptidyl peptidase-4, respectively, with good binding affinity. These phytochemicals can be further evaluated using in vitro and in vivo studies for their anti-hyperglycemia and anti-hyperamylinemia effects.

Abstract
This study evaluated the nephroprotective effect of kaempferol against cadmium chloride (CdCl2) -induced nephropathy in rats. It also investigated if activation of Nrf2 is a common mechanism of action. Adult male rats ((150 ± 15 g) were divided into 4 groups (n = 8/each) as a control (1% DMSO, orally), control + kaempferol (200 mg/kg, orally), CdCl2 (50 mg/l in drinking water), and CdCl2 + kaempferol (200 mg/kg)-treated rats. All treatments were conducted for 8 weeks. Kaempferol significantly attenuated CdCl2-induced weight loss, reduction in kidney weights, and the injury in the glomeruli, proximal tubules, and distal tubules in the treated rats. It also significantly lowered serum levels of urea and creatinine, increased urine output and urinary creatinine levels and clearance but reduced urinary levels of albumin urinary albumin exertion (UAER), and urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) in these rats. In parallel, kaempferol downregulated renal levels of cleaved caspase-3 and Bax and unregulated those of Bcl2. In the kidney tissues of the control animals and CdCl2 rats, kaempferol significantly attenuated oxidative stress, inflammation and significantly boosted levels of manganese superoxide dismutase and glutathione. Also, and in both groups, kaempferol suppressed the nuclear levels of NF-κB p65, downregulated Keap1, and stimulated the nuclear activation and protein levels of Nrf2. In conclusion, kaempferol is a potential therapeutic drug to prevent CdCl2-induced nephropathy due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects mediated by suppressing NF- NF-κB p65 and transactivating Nrf2.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lifetime diabetes risk is greater in women than in men. Women with diabetes mellitus (DM) have a greater prevalence of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) risk factors. The diagnosis of DM is often delayed in women, with poorer outcomes and with expected therapeutic goals missed. AREA COVERED A systematic literature review following PRISMA guidelines was conducted in the PubMed gateway of the MEDLINE database and Clinicaltrials.gov. The purpose of our research was to establish the sex differences on renal outcomes in users of the new hypoglycemic drugs: sodium-glucose transport protein 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i), dipeptidyl peptidase-IV Inhibitors (DPP-IVi) and glucagon-like peptide-1 inhibitors (GLP-1i). EXPERT OPINION New hypoglycemic drugs represent promising tools in the treatment and prevention of severe complications of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and chronic kidney disease. Even if renal outcomes are investigated in both randomized controlled trials and cardiovascular outcome trials, gender-based analysis is not always performed. This may lead to relevant information for risk-benefit evaluation and therapeutic choices being missed, with gender-based equality in outcomes lacking. Our systematic review demonstrated that the gap among sexes in DKD can be partially filled using new hypoglycemic drugs. Sexual dimorphism analysis could represent a keystone for the development of adequate gender-specific therapies.

Abstract
PURPOSE The effects of two types of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors on renal function remain unclear. Thus, we investigated the effect of anagliptin (ANA) and sitagliptin (SITA) on renal function in patients with type 2 diabetes who participated in the randomized evaluation of ANA versus SITA on low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) in diabetes (REASON) trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS We measured the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) before and after the REASON trial. ANA 200 mg/day was administered to 177 patients for 52 weeks, while SITA 50 mg/day was given to 176 patients. We investigated the relationship between differences in renal function and differences in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels, LDL-C levels, and blood pressure (BP). RESULTS No significant differences were found in baseline eGFR and UACR between the two groups. The eGFR levels were significantly decreased in both groups; however, the UACR level was unchanged in the ANA group but elevated in the SITA group, although the difference did not reach significance between the two groups. The difference in eGFR was affected by the differences in HbA1c level and BP, and the difference in the UACR was affected by the differences in LDL-C level and BP, which were reduced only in the ANA group. CONCLUSION These findings imply that the effects of DPP-4 inhibitors on renal function, especially on UACR, may be different between the types of DPP-4 inhibitors.

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are recently discovered antidiabetic drugs with potent hypoglycemic effects. Among different mechanisms of activity, these compounds were shown to reduce blood glucose by suppression of glucagon secretion and stimulation of glucose-dependent insulin secretion. These antidiabetic agents have a minor risk of hypoglycemia and have been suggested as a second-line therapy to be added to metformin treatment to further optimize glycemic control in diabetes. More recently, scientific evidence suggests that GLP-1 receptor agonists may particularly afford protection from diabetic nephropathy through modulation of the molecular pathways involved in renal impairment and so improve renal function. This additional benefit adds further weight for these compounds to become promising drugs not only for glycemic control but also to prevent diabetic complications. In this review, we have updated evidence on the beneficial effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists on diabetic nephropathy and detailed the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.

Biomed Pharmacother 2021; 141:111862.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays a key role in cadmium chloride (CdCl2)-induced nephrotoxicity. Sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) is a potent inhibitor of ER stress. In this study, we examined whether the protective effect of quercetin (QUR) against CdCl2-induced nephrotoxicity in rats involved modulation of SIRT1 and/or ER stress. Adult male rats were divided into five groups (n = 8, each) and treated for eight weeks as follows: control, control + QUR, CdCl2, CdCl2 + QUR, and CdCl2 + QUR + EX-527 (a SIRT1 inhibitor). Treatment of rats with QUR preserved the glomerulus and tubule structure, attenuated interstitial fibrosis, increased creatinine excretion, and reduced urinary levels of albumin, N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase, and β2-microglobulin in CdCl2-treated rats. Concomitantly, QUR increased renal levels of Bcl-2, reduced mRNA levels of CHOP, and protein levels of Bax, caspase-3, and cleaved caspase-3, but failed to reduce the mRNA levels of GRP78, PERK, eIf2α, ATF-6, and xbp-1. QUR also reduced the renal levels of reactive oxygen species, tumour necrosis factor, and interleukin-6 and the nuclear activity of NF-κB in the control and CdCl2-treated rats but increased the nuclear activity of Nrf2 and levels of glutathione and manganese superoxide dismutase. Additionally, QUR increased the total levels and nuclear activity of SIRT1 and reduced the acetylation of eIf2α and xbp-1. The nephroprotective effects of QUR were abrogated by treatment with EX-527. Thus, QUR ameliorated CdCl2-induced nephrotoxicity through antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and suppressed ER stress mediated by the upregulation or activation of SIRT1-induced deacetylation of Nrf2, NF-κB p65, eIF2α, and xbp-1.

Abstract
(1) Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the main cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In Greece, in a population from hospital-based diabetes clinics (n = 1759), the overall prevalence of diabetic chronic kidney disease (DCKD) was 45% including mild, moderate, and severe CKD. The aim of this study was to describe and analyze how T2DM patients with mild-to-severe CKD are managed by diabetologists in Greece and assess the achievement rates in glycemic, blood pressure and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) control. (2) Methods: This cross-sectional multicenter study took place from June 2015 to March 2016 and collected data from diabetes centers in public hospitals all over Greece. (3) Results: With regard to the anti-diabetes treatment, most participants were on metformin, DPP-4 (Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 inhibitors) inhibitors and insulin. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers were the most prescribed medications for hypertension. For the management of dyslipidemia, most participants were on statins. For patients with DCKD, the levels of HbA1c, blood pressure and LDL-C were 7.2%, 137.7/76.9 mmHg and 95.9 mg/dL, respectively (mean values). (4) Conclusions: The outcomes of this study suggest that management of DCKD can be further improved and should be enhanced. These results may contribute to the whole health care system in Greece. In addition, the better understanding of therapeutic strategies used by diabetologists treating these patients offers educational benefits to primary care physicians, which can result in an overall more successful and efficient management of subjects with T2DM and DCKD.

Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most common and important microvascular complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). The main clinical features of DN are proteinuria and a progressive decline in renal function, which are associated with structural and functional changes in the kidney. The pathogenesis of DN is multifactorial, including genetic, metabolic, and haemodynamic factors, which can trigger a sequence of events. Controlling metabolic risks such as hyperglycaemia, hypertension, and dyslipidaemia is not enough to slow the progression of DN. Recent studies emphasized immunoinflammation as a critical pathogenic factor in the progression of DN. Therefore, targeting inflammation is considered a potential and novel treatment strategy for DN. In this review, we will briefly introduce the inflammatory process of DN and discuss the anti-inflammatory effects of antidiabetic drugs when treating DN.

Abstract
This study examined the protective effect of Kaempferol against streptozotocin-induced diabetic nephropathy (DN) in rats and studies the underlying mechanisms. Rats were divided into 4 groups as control, control + Kaempferol, STZ, and STZ + Kaempferol. All treatments were conducted for 8 weeks daily after the induction of diabetes. Kaempferol prevented STZ-induced weight and food loss and attenuated renal damage and the alterations in all biochemical related parameters. Concomitantly, Kaempferol reduced renal levels of TNF-α and IL-6, cleaved caspase-3, p38, and Bax, suppressing JNK phosphorylation and NF-κB p65 transactivation, and upregulation of Bcl-2. In both control and STZ-diabetic rats, Kaempferol reduced fasting glucose levels, increased fasting insulin levels and HOMA-β, reduced the levels of ROS and MDA, stimulated SOD and GSH levels, and increased the expression of Nrf2 and HO-1. In conclusion, Kaempferol prevents STZ-induced diabetic nephropathy, mainly, by antioxidant potential, mediated by the upregulation of the Nrf-2/HO-1 axis.

Int J Gen Med 2020; 13:1395-1409. [PMID: 33324086 PMCID: PMC7733337 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s285191] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2020] [Accepted: 10/12/2020] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background This study aims to discuss, summarize and compare the renal outcomes associated with non-insulin antidiabetic (AD) pharmacotherapy prescribed for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A systematic search using predefined search terms in three scholarly databases, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and PubMed, was conducted. Original research articles published in the English language between 2012 and 2020 that reported renal outcomes associated with the use of non-insulin AD pharmacotherapy were eligible for inclusion. Review articles, meta-analysis studies, and conference proceedings were excluded. A study-specific data extraction form was designed to extract the author’s name, country, publication year, study design, study population, objectives, key findings, and conclusions. A narrative review of the key findings that focused on renal outcomes and renal safety issues was conducted. Results Of the 18,872 results identified through the initial search, a total of 32 articles were included in this review. Of these, 18 of the included articles reported the renal outcomes of newer antidiabetic medications, eg, SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 agonists. Eight studies focussed on the well-established antidiabetic medications, eg, metformin and sulphonylureas. The review reported three main types of the clinical impact of the prescribed AD on the renal outcomes: “renoprotective effects”, “no additional risk” and “associated with a decline in renal parameters”. Seventeen studies reported the renoprotective effects of AD, including SGLT2i studies (n=8), GLP1 studies (n=6), and DPP4i studies (n=3). The reported renoprotective effects included slowing down the GFR decline, improving albuminuria, and reducing renal adverse events. The “no additional risk” impact was reported in eight studies, including DPP4i studies (n=3), two SGLT2i studies (n=2), metformin studies (n=2), and one study involving pioglitazone. Furthermore, seven studies highlighted the “associated with a decline in renal parameters” effect. Of these, three involved SGLT2i, two with metformin, and one for each DPP4i and sulphonylurea. Conclusion More than half of the studies included in this review supported the renoprotective effects associated with the use of AD medications, particularly GLP-1A, SGLT2i, and some of the DPP4i. Further studies involving patients with various stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are required to compare AD medications’ renal effects, particularly the newer agents.

The effect of linagliptin on renal progression in type-2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease: A prospective randomized controlled study. Nefrologia 2020; 40:664-671. [PMID: 32736891 DOI: 10.1016/j.nefro.2020.04.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2019] [Revised: 04/03/2020] [Accepted: 04/21/2020] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Linagliptin does not require dose adjustment in diabetes mellitus patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). But, renal effects of linagliptin are not clear. Our aim was to examine the effect of linagliptin on renal disease progression in only insulin dependent type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with CKD. METHODS Stage 3-4 CKD patients were randomized into 2 groups in this prospective randomized controlled study. In the first group, linagliptin 5mg was added in addition to the background insulin therapy. In the second group, patients continued their insulin therapy. Patients were followed up at 3-month intervals for one year. RESULTS The study population consisted of 164 patients (90 patients in linagliptin group, 74 patients in other group) with a mean age of 67.5±8.8 years. eGFR significantly increased in linagliptin group (p=0.033), but decreased in other group (p=0.003). No significant change was observed in total insulin dose in linagliptin group (p=0.111), but in other group, total insulin dose significantly increased (p<0.001). Proteinuria levels decreased in both groups, but there was no significant change. In the multiple logistic regression analysis, male gender and proteinuria emerged as variables that showed significant association with increased risk and the use of linagliptin emerged as variable that showed significant association with decreased risk for CKD progression. CONCLUSION Linagliptin in DM patients with CKD was able to improve renal progression without significant effect on proteinuria and glucose control. With regard to treating diabetic nephropathy, linagliptin may offer a new therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus characterized by hyperglycaemia presents an array of comorbidities such as cardiovascular and renal failure, dyslipidemia, and cognitive impairments. Populations above the age of 60 are in an urgent need of effective therapies to deal with the complications associated with diabetes mellitus. Widely used anti-diabetic drugs have good safety profiles and multiple reports indicate their pleiotropic effects in diabetic patients or models. This review has been written with the objective of identifying the widely-marketed anti-diabetic drugs which can be efficiently repurposed for the treatment of other diseases or disorders. It is an updated, comprehensive review, describing the protective role of various classes of anti-diabetic drugs in mitigating the macro and micro vascular complications of diabetes mellitus, and differentiating these drugs on the basis of their mode of action. Notably, metformin, the anti-diabetic drug most commonly explored for cancer therapy, has also exhibited some antimicrobial effects. Unlike class specific effects, few instances of drug specific effects in managing cardiovascular complications have also been reported. A major drawback is that the pleiotropic effects of anti-diabetic drugs have been mostly investigated only in diabetic patients. Thus, for effective repurposing, more clinical trials devoted to analyse the effects of anti-diabetic drugs in patients irrespective of their diabetic condition, are required.

Abstract
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic and severe metabolic disease, characterized by chronic hyperglycemia due to insulin resistance and/or reduced insulin secretion. Concerning the non-insulin glucose-lowering therapy for diabetes, Dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, members of the incretin family, represent new agents, capable of a glycemic control improvement with an advantageous safety profile, given the absence of weight gain, the low incidence of hypoglycemia and the good renal tolerance in patients suffering from chronic renal failure. In addition to demonstrating efficacy in glycemic control through inhibition of GLP-1 degradation, DPP-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) seem to demonstrate pleiotropic effects, which also make them interesting in both diabetic and non-diabetic nephropathies, especially for their capacity of reducing proteinuria. Several studies about diabetic nephropathy on patients' cohorts and murine models have demonstrated a solid direct relationship between DPP-4 activity and urinary albumin excretion (UAE), thus confirming the capacity of DPP-4is to reduce proteinuria; the mechanism responsible for that effect was studied to assess if it was the result of a direct action on renal impairment or a secondary consequence of the better glycemic control related to these agents. As a result of these more in-depth studies, DPP-4is have demonstrated an improvement of renal inflammation markers and consequent proteinuria reduction, regardless of glucose concentrations. Considering the nephroprotective effects of DPP-4is might be glycemic independent, several studies were conducted to prove the validity of the same effects in non-diabetic nephropathies. Among these studies, DPP-4is demonstrated an improvement of various renal inflammatory markers on several models of non-diabetes dependent renal impairment, confirming their capacity to reduce proteinuria, independently from the action on glucose metabolism. The objective of this review is to present and discuss the so far demonstrated antiproteinuric effect of DPP-4is and their effects on diabetic and non-diabetic nephropathies.

Effect of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors on cisplatin-induced acute nephrotoxicity in cancer patients with diabetes mellitus: A retrospective study. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0229377.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cisplatin is a highly effective chemotherapeutic agent. However, acute kidney injury (AKI) limits its subsequent use, resulting in poor cancer prognosis. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors have been reported to attenuate cisplatin-induced AKI in animal models, but the effect in human patients remains to be clarified. We hypothesized that DPP-4 inhibitors can prevent cisplatin-induced AKI in diabetic-cancer patients. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed all consecutive cancer patients who were treated with a first cycle of cisplatin-containing regimen between January 2011 and October 2019. We analysed data of diabetic-cancer patients treated with high-dose cisplatin (> 50 mg/m2)-containing regimens. The change of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) within 2 weeks after cisplatin treatment was compared between the patients treated with DPP-4 inhibitors and those treated without DPP-4 inhibitors. RESULTS A total of 455 patients were treated with cisplatin during the period. Of these, 34 patients were eligible for the analysis. The change of eGFR was significantly less in the patients treated with DPP-4 inhibitors, compared to those without DPP-4 inhibitors [the percentages of eGFR decline (mean ± SD) was 23.6 ± 20.3% vs 43.1± 20.1%, respectively; P = 0.010]. Furthermore, the incidence of AKI was significantly less in the patients treated with DPP-4 inhibitors (25% vs 64%, respectively; P = 0.026). CONCLUSIONS DPP-4 inhibitors may decrease the risk of cisplatin-induced AKI in diabetic patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have shown greater reductions of cardiovascular event risks than dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitors, whereby possible mechanisms may involve the better pleiotropic effects of SGLT2 inhibitors. However, no published data are currently available to directly compare glycemic and pleiotropic effects in real-world type 2 diabetes patients initiating SGLT2 inhibitors or DPP4 inhibitors. METHOD We conducted a retrospective cohort study by analyzing the Chang Gung Research Database, the largest multi-institutional electronic medical records database in Taiwan. We included patients newly receiving SGLT2 inhibitor or DPP4 inhibitor intensification therapy for type 2 diabetes from 2016 to 2017. We matched SGLT2 inhibitor users to DPP4 inhibitor users (1:4) by propensity scores to ensure comparable characteristics between the groups. We primarily evaluated 1-year post-treatment changes of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) after SGLT2 inhibitor or DPP4 inhibitor initiation, using two-tailed independent t-test. We also evaluated post-treatment changes in body weight, systolic blood pressure (SBP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) values, associated with SGLT2 inhibitors and DPP4 inhibitors. RESULTS We identified a cohort of 2028 SGLT2 inhibitors and 8112 matched DPP4 inhibitors new users. SGLT2 inhibitors and DPP4 inhibitors showed similar HbA1c reductions (- 1.0 vs. - 1.1%; P = 0.076), but patients receiving SGLT2 inhibitors had greater improvements in body weight (- 1.5 vs. - 1.0 kg; P = 0.008), SBP (- 2.5 vs. - 0.7 mmHg; P < 0.001) and ALT values (- 4.1 vs. - 0.0 U/l; P < 0.001) and smaller declines in eGFR values (- 2.0 vs. - 3.5 ml/min/1.73 m2; P < 0.001) when compared to DPP4 inhibitors. CONCLUSION SGLT2 inhibitors had glucose-lowering effects comparable to those of DPP4 inhibitors but more favorable pleiotropic effects on body weight, ALT and eGFR changes, potentially improving type 2 diabetes patients' cardio-metabolic disease risks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the effects of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4i) as add-on medications to metformin on progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, compared with sulfonylurea (SU) or thiazolidinedione (TZD). METHODS We identified 4,447 patients with DPP4i, 6,136 with SU, and 617 with TZD in addition to metformin therapy from the database of Korean National Health Insurance Service between January 2013 and December 2015. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) for DR progression. The progression of DR was defined by the procedure code of panretinal photocoagulation, intravitreal injection or vitrectomy; or the addition of diagnostic code of vitreous hemorrhage, retinal detachment, or neovascular glaucoma. RESULTS The age and sex-adjusted HR of DR progression was 0.74 for DPP4i add-on group compared with SU add-on group (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.62 to 0.89). This lower risk of DR progression remained significant after additional adjustments for comorbidities, duration of metformin therapy, intravitreal injections and calendar index year (HR, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.66 to 0.97). CONCLUSION This population-based cohort study showed that the use of DPP4i as add-on therapy to metformin did not increase the risk of DR progression compared to SU.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the major contributor to the mortality and the financial burden of diabetes, accounting for approximately 50% of the cases of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in the developed world. Several studies have already demonstrated that achieving blood pressure targets in DKD with agents blocking the renin-angiotensin system confer superior renoprotection when compared to other agents. However, the effects on renal outcomes of antihyperglycaemic agents in these patients have not been reported or studied broadly until recent years. The intent of this article is to review the available data on safety, efficacy, impact on renal outcomes and pathophysiology implications of the most utilized antihyperglycaemic agents in DKD/ESRD.

Abstract
IN BRIEF The number of medications used to treat diabetes has increased dramatically in the past 15 years. With so many options that have shown significant A1C improvement, it is important to consider side effects, precautions, and additional benefits these agents may offer. This article is a review of some of the most compelling literature available on the nonglycemic benefits of sulfonylureas, thiazolidinediones, biguanides, glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors, and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors. Other classes of antihyperglycemic agents, such as dopamine agonists, meglitinides, and amylin agonists, are not discussed in this article.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is the most prevalent metabolic disorder worldwide. Glycemic control is the main focus of antidiabetic therapy. However, there are data suggesting that some antidiabetic drugs may have intrinsic beneficial renal effects and protect against the development and progression of albuminuria, thus minimizing the risk of diabetic nephropathy. These pharmacological agents can suppress upstream molecular pathways involved in the pathophysiology of diabetes-induced renal dysfunction such as oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, and apoptosis. In this narrative review, the pathophysiology of albuminuria in patients with diabetic nephropathy is discussed. Furthermore, the renoprotective effects of antidiabetic drugs, focusing on albuminuria, are reviewed.

Abstract
The two dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitors, linagliptin and sitagliptin, were shown to exert different binding kinetics in vitro. Twenty-four hours after oral dosing particularly in vivo inhibition of renal-specific DPP-4 activity was more sustained in Sprague Dawley rats after exposure to linagliptin than it was after sitagliptin.

Abstract
The prevalence of diabetes mellitus is increasing and is associated with a range of complications including nephropathy. New antidiabetic agents are sought which also have positive effects to diminish diabetic complications. Examples of promising new classes of such agents are glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors. In addition to cardiovascular protective effects such as weight loss and decreased blood pressure of some of these agents, there is evidence for renoprotective effects with these agents. This review elaborates on the main results of renoprotective effects of these 3 treatment classes. In conclusion, currently available trials have demonstrated renoprotective effects for certain glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, liraglutide and semaglutide, and the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, empagliflozin and canagliflozin. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors did not show a significant renoprotective effect. Nevertheless, larger studies with respect to renoprotective effects of these 3 drug classes are currently being performed, and thus, no conclusions for all of these agents can yet be made.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) are increasingly being used in the management of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The present review summarizes the current knowledge of the effects of DPP-4is on renal outcomes by analyzing the experimental preclinical data, the effects of DPP-4is on urinary albumin-creatinine ratios (UACRs) and estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) from observational studies and clinical trials, and renal events (including kidney failure requiring renal replacement therapy) in recent large prospective cardiovascular outcome trials. Renal protection has been demonstrated in various animal models that have implicated different underlying mechanisms independent of glucose control, whereas prevention of new onset microalbuminuria and/or progression of albuminuria has been reported in some clinical studies, but with no significant effects on eGFR in most of them. The long-term clinical effects of DPP-4is on renal outcomes and the development of end-stage renal disease remain largely unknown and, thus, demand further investigations in prospective trials and long-term observational studies. In conclusion, despite promising results in animal models, data on surrogate biological markers of renal function and clinical renal outcomes remain rather scanty in patients with T2D, and mostly demonstrate the safety rather than true efficacy of DPP-4is.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract - the largest endocrine network in human physiology - orchestrates signals from the external environment to maintain neural and hormonal control of homeostasis. Advances in understanding entero-endocrine cell biology in health and disease have important translational relevance. The gut-derived incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is secreted upon meal ingestion and controls glucose metabolism by modulating pancreatic islet cell function, food intake and gastrointestinal motility, amongst other effects. The observation that the insulinotropic actions of GLP-1 are reduced in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) led to the development of incretin-based therapies - GLP-1 receptor agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors - for the treatment of hyperglycaemia in these patients. Considerable interest exists in identifying effects of these drugs beyond glucose-lowering, possibly resulting in improved macrovascular and microvascular outcomes, including in diabetic kidney disease. As GLP-1 has been implicated as a mediator in the putative gut-renal axis (a rapid-acting feed-forward loop that regulates postprandial fluid and electrolyte homeostasis), direct actions on the kidney have been proposed. Here, we review the role of GLP-1 and the actions of associated therapies on glucose metabolism, the gut-renal axis, classical renal risk factors, and renal end points in randomized controlled trials of GLP-1 receptor agonists and DPP-4 inhibitors in patients with T2DM.
