Abstract
Vildagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor is effective in reducing HbA1c levels in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) when administered as monotherapy, dual or triple combination therapy. In India, Vildagliptin is commonly prescribed in T2DM patients because it reduces mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE), has lower risk of hypoglycemia and is weight neutral. Early combination therapy with vildagliptin and metformin is effective and well-tolerated in patients with T2DM, regardless of age or ethnicity. In view of already existing data on vildagliptin and the latest emerging clinical evidence, a group of endocrinologists, diabetologists and cardiologists convened for an expert group meeting to discuss the role and various combinations of vildagliptin in T2DM management. This practical document aims to guide Physicians and Specialists regarding the different available strengths and formulations of vildagliptin for the initiation and intensification of T2DM therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of vildagliptin or vildagliptin/metformin combination among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) uncontrolled on insulin in a real-world setting in Egypt. METHODS This 12-week, prospective, observational study enrolled T2DM patients. Primary endpoint was mean change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline to Week 12. Secondary endpoints included mean change in body weight, insulin dosage and safety after 12 weeks. RESULTS Of the 90 patients enrolled, 88 (93.6%) completed the study. The mean age was 54.7 years; men, 51.1%; body mass index (BMI), 31.6 kg/m2; T2DM duration, 89.8 months; insulin dose, 55.14 IU/day. At 12 weeks, HbA1c decreased significantly with vildagliptin/metformin (-1.3 ± 0.9%, p < 0.0001) and vildagliptin (-1.1 ± 0.9%, p = 0.0001). 27.1% and 11.1% achieved HbA1c <7% in vildagliptin/metformin and vildagliptin groups, respectively. Significant mean (±standard deviation [SD]) reduction in body weight (-2.5 ± 7.3 kg, p = 0.0055) and insulin dose (-24.11 ± 22.3 IU, p < 0.0001) was observed in the vildagliptin/metformin group. Overall, 8 (8.9%) patients reported 11 (12.2%) adverse events (AEs) and no hypoglycemic events. AEs possibly related to the study drug (4.2%, in vildagliptin/metformin) were mild in severity. CONCLUSION Vildagliptin with/without metformin as an add-on to insulin resulted in good glycemic control and was well tolerated without any hypoglycemic events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardioprotective actions of ischemic postconditioning (IPostC) against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury are abolished in diabetic hearts. This study has investigated the combined effects of IPostC and vildagliptin (Vilda) on myocardial function and infarct size (IS) against I/R injury in diabetic myocardium. METHODS Diabetes was induced by a high-fat diet/low dose of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg; intraperitoneally) in Wistar rats (200-250 g) and lasted for 12 weeks. Vilda (6 mg/kg/d) was orally administered for 5 weeks in diabetic groups after seventh week of diabetes. At the end of the 12-week period, the hearts of rats were removed and subjected to 35-minute regional ischemia (through left anterior descending ligation) followed by 60-minute reperfusion, on Langendorff apparatus. Ischemic postconditioning was induced by 6 repetitive cycles of 10-second ischemia and 10-second reperfusion, immediately at the onset of the reperfusion. Myocardial hemodynamic was measured throughout the experiment. The IS was assessed by triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining method. The myocardial contents of troponin-I (cTnI), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and 8-isoprostane were measured in the homogenate from ischemic zone of left ventricles by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit. RESULTS Pretreatment of the diabetic rats with Vilda significantly recovered the diabetes-induced reduction in left ventricular developed pressures and contractility at the baseline ( P < .05 to P < .01). After I/R injury, IPostC could not significantly improve the myocardial function, cTnI content, and IS of the diabetic hearts. However, in Vilda-treated hearts, concomitant application of IPostC significantly recovered the heart functions, returned cTnI content as well as myocardial IL-6 and 8-isoprostane levels back to the control values ( P < .01 to P < .001), and reduced IS more effectively (by 45%) in comparison to the diabetic group ( P < .001). CONCLUSION Besides its glycemic and lipid profile controlling effects, Vilda has a protective effect on heart function and tends to restore cardioprotective effects of IPostC on diabetic hearts.

Abstract
The cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway is one of the putative biochemical pathways that link diabetes with Alzheimer disease. Hence, we aimed to verify the potential antidiabetic effect of galantamine, unveil the possible mechanisms and evaluate its interaction with vildagliptin. The n5-STZ rat model was adopted and the diabetic animals were treated with galantamine and/or vildagliptin for 4 weeks. Galantamine lowered the n5-STZ-induced elevation in body weight, food/water intake, serum levels of glucose, fructosamine, and ALT/AST, as well as AChE in the tested organs. Moreover, it modulated successfully the lipid profile assessed in serum, liver, and muscle, and increased serum insulin level, as well as % β-cell function, in a pattern similar to that of vildagliptin. Additionally, galantamine confirmed its antioxidant (Nrf2, TAC, MDA), anti-inflammatory (NF-κB, TNF-α, visfatin, adiponectin) and anti-apoptotic (caspase-3, cytochrome c) capabilities by altering the n5-STZ effect on all the aforementioned parameters. On the molecular level, galantamine/vildagliptin have improved the insulin (p-insulin receptor, p-Akt, GLUT4/GLUT2) and Wnt/β-catenin (p-GSK-3β, β-catenin) signaling pathways. On almost all parameters, the galantamine effects surpassed that of vildagliptin, while the combination regimen showed the best effects. The present results clearly proved that galantamine modulated glucose/lipid profile possibly through its anti-oxidant, -apoptotic, -inflammatory and -cholinesterase properties. These effects could be attributed partly to the enhancement of insulin and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways. Galantamine can be strongly considered as a potential antidiabetic agent and as an add-on therapy with other oral antidiabetics.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes is a serious and common chronic disease resulting from a complex inheritance-environment interaction along with other risk factors such as obesity and sedentary lifestyle. Type 2 diabetes and its complications constitute a major worldwide public health problem, affecting almost all populations in both developed and developing countries with high rates of diabetes-related morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of type 2 diabetes has been increasing exponentially, and a high prevalence rate has been observed in developing countries and in populations undergoing "westernization" or modernization. Multiple risk factors of diabetes, delayed diagnosis until micro- and macro-vascular complications arise, life-threatening complications, failure of the current therapies, and financial costs for the treatment of this disease, make it necessary to develop new efficient therapy strategies and appropriate prevention measures for the control of type 2 diabetes. Herein, we summarize our current understanding about the epidemiology of type 2 diabetes, the roles of genes, lifestyle and other factors contributing to rapid increase in the incidence of type 2 diabetes. The core aims are to bring forward the new therapy strategies and cost-effective intervention trials of type 2 diabetes.
