[PMID: 39224109 PMCID: PMC11367061 DOI: 10.1016/j.gendis.2023.101174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 09/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Sodium-glucose co-transporter inhibitors (SGLTis) are the latest class of anti-hyperglycemic agents. In addition to inhibiting the absorption of glucose by the kidney causing glycosuria, these drugs also demonstrate cardio-renal benefits in diabetic subjects. miR-30 family, one of the most abundant microRNAs in the heart, has recently been linked to a setting of cardiovascular diseases and has been proposed as novel biomarkers in kidney dysfunctions as well; their expression is consistently dysregulated in a variety of cardio-renal dysfunctions. The mechanistic involvement and the potential interplay between miR-30 and SGLT2i effects have yet to be thoroughly elucidated. Recent research has stressed the relevance of this cluster of microRNAs as modulators of several pathological processes in the heart and kidneys, raising the possibility of these small ncRNAs playing a central role in various cardiovascular complications, notably, endothelial dysfunction and pathological remodeling. Here, we review current evidence supporting the pleiotropic effects of SGLT2is in cardiovascular and renal outcomes and investigate the link and the coordinated implication of the miR-30 family in endothelial dysfunction and cardiac remodeling. We also discuss the emerging role of circulating miR-30 as non-invasive biomarkers and attractive therapeutic targets for cardiovascular diseases and kidney diseases. Clinical evidence, as well as metabolic, cellular, and molecular aspects, are comprehensively covered.

Abstract
Sotagliflozin (trade name INFEPA) is a novel dual sodium-glucose cotransporter-1 and -2 (SGLT-1/2) inhibitor that was developed by Lexicon Pharmaceuticals. It has emerged as a promising therapy for managing heart failure and other cardiovascular complications associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Its dual inhibition of SGLT-1 and SGLT-2 receptors uniquely decreases glucose absorption in the intestine in addition to decreasing renal glucose reabsorption, leading to improved glycemic control and cardio-reno protection. Clinical trials have demonstrated its efficacy in reducing cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalizations, and urgent visits, particularly in T2DM patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The drug was approved in 2023 by the Food and Drug Administration for reducing cardiovascular death and heart failure in T2DM patients with CKD and those with heart failure, irrespective of diabetic status or ejection fraction. However, despite its considerable therapeutic potential, sotagliflozin does pose notable adverse effects, including diabetic ketoacidosis, genital infections, and diarrhea. As a result, it has faced regulatory challenges in certain regions, notably the United States. The Food and Drug Administration has so far withheld approval for sotagliflozin in the treatment of type 1 diabetes due to concerns about its safety profile, specifically the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis, although Lexicon Pharmaceuticals plans to submit another new drug application for this use in 2024. Further investigation and clinical trials are warranted to fully elucidate sotagliflozin's impact on diabetes and CKD.

Risks and Benefits of SGLT-2 Inhibitors for Type 1 Diabetes Patients Using Automated Insulin Delivery Systems-A Literature Review. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1972. [PMID: 38396657 PMCID: PMC10888162 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25041972] [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: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 01/27/2024] [Accepted: 02/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The primary treatment for autoimmune Diabetes Mellitus (Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus-T1DM) is insulin therapy. Unfortunately, a multitude of clinical cases has demonstrated that the use of insulin as a sole therapeutic intervention fails to address all issues comprehensively. Therefore, non-insulin adjunct treatment has been investigated and shown successful results in clinical trials. Various hypoglycemia-inducing drugs such as Metformin, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, amylin analogs, and Sodium-Glucose Cotransporters 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, developed good outcomes in patients with T1DM. Currently, SGLT-2 inhibitors have remarkably improved the treatment of patients with diabetes by preventing cardiovascular events, heart failure hospitalization, and progression of renal disease. However, their pharmacological potential has not been explored enough. Thus, the substantial interest in SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) underlines the present review. It begins with an overview of carrier-mediated cellular glucose uptake, evidencing the insulin-independent transport system contribution to glucose homeostasis and the essential roles of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporters 1 and 2. Then, the pharmacological properties of SGLT-2is are detailed, leading to potential applications in treating T1DM patients with automated insulin delivery (AID) systems. Results from several studies demonstrated improvements in glycemic control, an increase in Time in Range (TIR), a decrease in glycemic variability, reduced daily insulin requirements without increasing hyperglycemic events, and benefits in weight management. However, these advantages are counterbalanced by increased risks, particularly concerning Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA). Several clinical trials reported a higher incidence of DKA when patients with T1DM received SGLT-2 inhibitors such as Sotagliflozin and Empagliflozin. On the other hand, patients with T1DM and a body mass index (BMI) of ≥27 kg/m2 treated with Dapagliflozin showed similar reduction in hyperglycemia and body weight and insignificantly increased DKA incidence compared to the overall trial population. Additional multicenter and randomized studies are required to establish safer and more effective long-term strategies based on patient selection, education, and continuous ketone body monitoring for optimal integration of SGLT-2 inhibitors into T1DM therapeutic protocol.

Abstract
Sodium glucose cotransporters (SGLTs) are transport proteins that are expressed throughout the body. Inhibition of SGLTs is a relatively novel therapeutic strategy to improve glycemic control and has been shown to promote cardiorenal benefits. Dual SGLT1/2 inhibitors (SGLT1/2i) such as sotagliflozin target both SGLT1 and 2 proteins. Sotagliflozin or vehicle was administered to diabetic Akimba mice for 8 weeks at a dose of 25 mg/kg/day. Urine glucose levels, water consumption, and body weight were measured weekly. Serum, kidney, pancreas, and brain tissue were harvested under terminal anesthesia. Tissues were assessed using immunohistochemistry or ELISA techniques. Treatment with sotagliflozin promoted multiple metabolic benefits in diabetic Akimba mice resulting in decreased blood glucose and improved polydipsia. Sotagliflozin also prevented mortalities associated with diabetes. Our data suggests that there is the possibility that combined SGLT1/2i may be superior to SGLT2i in controlling glucose homeostasis and provides protection of multiple organs affected by diabetes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION : There is an unmet need for therapies that improve overall mortality and morbidity for patients with preserved ejection fraction, who comprise roughly half of all heart failure (HF) cases. The growing role of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) in cardiovascular outcomes provide a paradigm shift in the treatment of HF. AREAS COVERED : This review article provides a general overview of the growing role of SGLT2is and summarizes the mechanism of action, side effects, and contraindications for the treatment of HF. We also discuss recent clinical trials measuring the effects of different SGLT2is as possible treatment options for HF with reduced ejection fraction and HF with mid-range and preserved EF. We conducted a review of all the randomized, controlled studies with SGLT2is in patients with known heart failure with and without type-2 diabetes (T2DM). We performed a literature search in PubMed, Google Scholar, the Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library while screening results by the use of titles and abstracts. EXPERT OPINION : The promising pathophysiological profile of SGLT2i and their role in cardioprotective effects demonstrate an invaluable discovery in the management of patients with HF irrespective of their diabetes status.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:968478. [PMID: 36225203 PMCID: PMC9548998 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.968478] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [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: 06/14/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a global health problem, and it has become a shocking threat in the contemporary era. The objective of this study was to analyze the safety of sotagliflozin in patients with DM systematically and intuitively. METHODS On November 15, 2021, literature retrieval was performed on PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCO, and Cochrane libraries. The meta-analysis results included genital mycotic infection, related-to-acidosis events, and other related adverse events, including diarrhea, severe nocturnal hypoglycemia event, and volume depletion. In addition, a subgroup analysis was also conducted based on different doses of sotagliflozin. Moreover, the patient-treated years analyzed in the study were 12 weeks, 24 weeks, and 52 weeks, respectively, for type 1 diabetes, and were 12 weeks, 22 weeks, and 52 weeks, respectively, for type 2 diabetes. RESULTS The results of this meta-analysis illustrated that sotagliflozin could increase the risk of genital mycotic infection for patients with T1D and T2D (RR: 3.49, 95% Cl: 2.54-4.79, p < 0.001; RR: 2.83, 95% Cl: 2.04-3.93, p < 0.001; respectively). In addition, the subgroup analysis showed that the drug doses that could increase the risk of genital mycotic infection were 400 mg and 200 mg (RR: 3.63, 95% Cl: 2.46-5.36, p < 0.001; RR: 3.21, 95% Cl: 1.84-5.62, p < 0.001; respectively) in T1D. Moreover, sotagliflozin could increase the risk of events related to acidosis in the patients of T1D, including acidosis-related adverse events, positively adjudicated diabetic ketoacidosis, acidosis-related event, and diabetic ketoacidosis (RR: 7.49, 95% Cl: 3.20-17.52, p < 0.001; RR: 6.05, 95% Cl: 2.56-14.30, p < 0.001; RR: 4.83, 95% Cl: 3.13-7.45, p < 0.001; RR: 8.12, 95% Cl: 3.06-21.52, p < 0.001; respectively). In the patients of T2D, sotagliflozin could not increase the risk of DKA (RR: 1.30, 95% Cl: 0.34-4.99, p = 0.70). About serious of acidosis-related adverse events, positively adjudicated diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acidosis-related event, the included studies were not reported for T2D patients. As for the other related adverse events, sotagliflozin was found to be a risk factor for diarrhea and volume depletion in T1D patients (RR: 1.44, 95% Cl: 1.09-1.90, p = 0.01; RR: 2.50, 95% Cl: 1.33-4.69, p < 0.01; respectively) and T2D patients (RR: 1.44, 95% Cl: 1.26-1.64, p < 0.001; RR: 1.25, 95% Cl: 1.07-1.45, p < 0.01; respectively). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis showed that the adverse events of sotagliflozin were tolerable to patients with DM, in terms of the incidence of genital mycotic infection, related-to-acidosis events, diarrhea, volume depletion, and severe nocturnal hypoglycemia events. In addition, the subgroup analysis of sotagliflozin dosage is considered to have great clinical significance for future guidance of sotagliflozin application in patients with DM.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and diabetes mellitus (DM) are commonly encountered in clinical practice. Although, the long term macrovascular and microvascular sequela of DM are well validated, the association between the less prevalent type 1 DM (T1DM) and atrial arrhythmogenesis is poorly understood. In the present review we highlight the current experimental and clinical data addressing this complex interaction. Animal studies support that T1DM, characterized by insulin deficiency and glycemic variability, impairs phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B signaling pathway. This pathway holds a central role in atrial electrical and structural remodeling responsible for arrhythmia initiation and maintenance. The molecular ''footprint'' of T1DM in atrial myocytes seems to involve a state of increased oxidative stress, impaired glucose transportation, ionic channel dysregulation and eventually fibrosis. On the contrary only a few clinical studies have examined the role of T1DM as an independent risk factor for AF development, and are discussed here. Further research is needed to solidify the real magnitude of this association and to investigate the clinical implications of PI3K molecular signaling pathway in atrial fibrillation management.

Abstract
Background: Recent studies have revealed that a novel selective sodium-glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT1) inhibiton has shown beneficial effects in cardiovascular diseases. However, the question of whether SGLT1 inhibition influences diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains unanswered. In this study, we investigated the influence and underlying mechanism of SGLTI inhibition on DCM. Methods: SGLT1 levels were measured in diabetic patients with similar conditions who visited our hospital from January to December 2019. Wistar male rats (n = 50) were divided into five groups: control, diabetes induced by streptozotocin infusion, and diabetes treated with 0.5, 1.0, or 1.5 mg/kg mizagliflozin via stomach gavage for 12 weeks. H9C2 cardiomyocytes were treated with mizagliflozin and then exposed to a high glucose concentration (30 mmol/L). TUNEL assays were performed, and bcl2, bax, p-p38, p-Erk, p-JNK and caspase-3 levels were measured. We used siRNA and an SGLT1 overexpression plasmid to detect the effects of SGLT1. Results: SGLT1 levels were significantly elevated in DCM patients, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis identified SGLT1 as influencing DCM. The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.705 (p < 0.05), with 65.8% sensitivity, and 62.2% specificity. SGLT1 inhibition appeared to attenuate apoptosis in DCM via the JNK and p38 pathway. Conclusion: SGLT1 can be used as a marker for the diagnosis of DCM, and SGLT1 inhibition can attenuate apoptosis, thereby suppressing DCM development via the JNK and p38 pathway.

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.

Schudok M, Glombik H, Derdau V. The magic of small structure differences in a sodium-glucose cotransporter drug discovery project- 14 C-labelled drug candidates in a key-differentiating study. J Labelled Comp Radiopharm 2020; 64:73-76. [PMID: 32633850 DOI: 10.1002/jlcr.3869] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2020] [Revised: 06/17/2020] [Accepted: 07/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
We describe the dramatic differences in the synthesis and physiological and pharmacokinetical profiling of two sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT) drug candidates AVE2268 and AVE8887 with very similar chemical structures. It is a classic example of how a radioactive study was able to spare resources in preclinical development prior to entering a costly clinical program. It also demonstrated that radioactive compounds can be used to study differences between two very similar compounds in vivo.
