Abstract
Objectives: Sodium-glucose transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are commonly used for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, offering additional benefits in non-diabetic patients with conditions such as chronic kidney disease and heart failure. However, SGLT2i have been associated with an increased risk of euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). This case series describes three cases of patients who developed euglycemic DKA while taking SGLT2i. Key Findings: Each of the three patients with euglycemic DKA were taking SGLT2i for the treatment of diabetes and all had additional risk factors for the development of DKA. These factors included reduced oral intake, major acute illness, chronic pancreatitis, and a history of previous DKA episodes. Unfortunately, the absence of hallmark symptoms like hyperglycemia, polyuria, and polydipsia led to delayed diagnosis of euglycemic DKA in two of the three patients. Conclusion: Early recognition of risk factors and a high level of suspicion are critical in identifying euglycemic DKA in patients taking SGLT2i. Healthcare providers should conduct thorough medication reconciliation upon admission and closely monitor patients for concurrent issues, especially in cases of minimal oral intake, acute illnesses, and chronic pancreatitis. Prompt diagnosis and management of euglycemic DKA can significantly improve patient outcomes.

Impact of SGLT2 Inhibitors on Very Elderly Population with Heart Failure with Reduce Ejection Fraction: Real Life Data. Biomedicines 2024; 12:1507. [PMID: 39062080 PMCID: PMC11274864 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12071507] [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: 05/29/2024] [Revised: 07/02/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: The validation of new lines of therapy for the elderly is required due to the progressive ageing of the world population and scarce evidence in elderly patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The purpose of our study is to analyze the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in this subgroup of patients. (2) Methods: A single-center, real-world observational study was performed. We consecutively enrolled all patients aged ≥ 75 years diagnosed with HFrEF and for treatment with SGLT2i, and considered the theoretical indications. (3) Results: A total of 364 patients were recruited, with a mean age of 84.1 years. At inclusion, the mean LVEF was 29.8%. Median follow-up was 33 months, and there were 122 deaths. A total of 55 patients were under SGLT2i treatment. A multivariate Cox logistic regression test for all-cause mortality was performed, and only SGLT2i (HR 0.39 [0.19-0.82]) and glomerular filtration rate (HR 0.98 [0.98-0.99]) proved to be protective factors. In parallel, we conducted a propensity-score-matched analysis, where a significant reduction in all-cause mortality was associated with the use of SGLT2i treatment (HR 0.39, [0.16-0.97]). (4) Conclusions: Treatment with SGLT2i in elderly patients with HFrEF was associated with a lower rate of all-cause mortality. Our data show that SGLT2i therapy could improve prognosis in the elderly with HFrEF in a real-world study.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a noncommunicable condition that has become a major healthcare burden across the globe, often underdiagnosed and associated with low awareness. The main cause that leads to the development of renal impairment is diabetes mellitus and, in contrast to other chronic complications such as retinopathy or neuropathy, it has been suggested that intensive glycemic control is not sufficient in preventing the development of diabetic kidney disease. Nevertheless, a novel class of antidiabetic agents, the sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), have shown multiple renoprotective properties that range from metabolic and hemodynamic to direct renal effects, with a major impact on reducing the risk of occurrence and progression of CKD. Thus, this review aims to summarize current knowledge regarding the renoprotective mechanisms of SGLT2i and to offer a new perspective on this innovative class of antihyperglycemic drugs with proven pleiotropic beneficial effects that, after decades of no significant progress in the prevention and in delaying the decline of renal function, start a new era in the management of patients with CKD.

Abstract
PURPOSE Owing to the pharmacological mechanism, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) may be less effective in patients with reduced renal functions, but no systematic review or meta-analysis addressed chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients specifically. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of SGLT2is in CKD patients. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Mean difference (MD) were pooled for the decline of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and change in urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR). Hazard ratio (HR) and rate ratio (RR) were pooled for composite of renal outcomes and adverse effects. RESULTS Thirty articles were identified. Overall MD in rate of eGFR decline was 0.02 (P = 0.05), with a borderline significant difference favoring SGLT2is, while the change in uACR from baseline was - 141.34 mg/g and hazard ratio of composite renal outcomes was 0.64 significantly favoring SGLT2is. Subgroup analyses showed that the long-term renal function, participants with baseline macroalbuminuria, and stage 4 CKD patients had significantly slower eGFR decline rate in SGLT2is compared to the placebo group. Risks of genital mycotic infection and ketoacidosis were significantly higher among the SGLT2is group than placebo. CONCLUSION For CKD patients, no matter diabetic or non-diabetic, our study showed potential renoprotective effects favoring SGLT2is in overall and long-term phase, and in patients with macroalbuminuria or stage 4 CKD. However, only slight increased risk of adverse effects among the SGLT2is group is observed. Therefore, we concluded that in CKD patients, prescribing SGLT2is was safe and had renal benefits.

Abstract
Multiple randomized controlled trials have extensively examined the therapeutic effectiveness of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, ushering in a transformative approach to treating individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Notably, emerging reports have drawn attention to the potential positive impacts of SGLT2 inhibitors in nondiabetic patients. In an effort to delve into this phenomenon, a comprehensive systematic literature review spanning PubMed (NLM), Medline (Ovid), and Cochrane Library, covering publications from 2000 to 2024 was undertaken. This systematic review encompassed twenty-six randomized control trials (RCTs) involving 35,317 participants. The findings unveiled a multifaceted role for SGLT2 inhibitors, showcasing their ability to enhance metabolic control and yield cardioprotective effects through a reduction in cardiovascular death (CVD) and hospitalization related to heart failure (HF). Additionally, a renalprotective effect was observed, evidenced by a slowdown in chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression and a decrease in albuminuria. Importantly, these benefits were coupled with an acceptable safety profile. The literature also points to various biological plausibility and underlying mechanistic pathways, offering insights into the association between SGLT2 inhibitors and these positive outcomes in nondiabetic individuals. Current research trends indicate a continual exploration of additional role for SGLT2 inhibitors in. Nevertheless, further research is imperative to fully elucidate the mechanisms and long-term outcomes associated with the nondiabetic use of SGLT2 inhibitors.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are currently available for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. SGLT2i acts by inhibiting renal SGLT2, thereby increasing glucosuria and lowering serum glucose. Recent trials are emerging supporting a role for SGLT2i irrespective of the diabetic status pointing towards that SGLT2i have other mechanisms of actions beyond blood sugar control. In this review, we will shed light on the role of this group of medications that act as SGLT2i in non-diabetics focusing on pre-clinical and clinical data highlighting the mechanism of renoprotection and effects of SGLT2i in the non-diabetic kidneys.

Abstract
Among the broad spectrum of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), immunofluorescence distinguishes C3 glomerulopathy (C3G), with predominant C3 deposits, and immunoglobulin-associated MPGN (Ig-MPGN), with combined C3 and Ig. However, there are several intersections between C3G and Ig-MPGN. Primary C3G and Ig-MPGN share the same prevalence of low serum C3 levels and of abnormalities of the alternative pathway of complement, and patients who present a bioptic pattern of Ig-MPGN at onset may show a C3G pattern in a subsequent biopsy. There is no specific therapy for primary C3G and Ig-MPGN and prognosis is unfavourable. The only recommended indications are inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system, lipid-lowering agents and other renoprotective agents. The other drugs used currently, such as corticosteroids and mycophenolate mofetil, are often ineffective. The anti-C5 monoclonal antibody eculizumab has been tested in several patients, with mixed results. One reason for the uncertainty is the extremely variable clinical course, most likely reflecting a heterogeneous pathogenesis. An unsupervised clustering analysis that included histologic, biochemical, genetic and clinical data available at onset in patients with primary C3G and Ig-MPGN identified four clusters characterized by specific pathogenic mechanisms. This approach may facilitate accurate diagnosis and development of targeted therapies. Several trials are ongoing with drugs targeting different molecules of the complement cascade, however it is important to consider which component of the cascade may be the most appropriate for each patient. We review the current standards of treatment and discuss novel developments in the pathophysiology, diagnosis, outcome prediction and management of C3G and Ig-MPGN.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose co-transporters (SGLTs) in the kidneys play a pivotal role in glucose reabsorption. Several clinical and population-based studies revealed the beneficial effects of SGLT2 inhibition on hypertension. Recent work from our lab provided significant new insight into the role of SGLT2 inhibition in a non-diabetic model of salt-sensitive hypertension, Dahl salt-sensitive (SS) rats. Dapagliflozin (Dapa) blunted the development of salt-induced hypertension by causing glucosuria and natriuresis without changes in the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System. However, our initial study used male SS rats only, and the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on hypertension in females has not been studied. Therefore, the goal of this study was to determine whether SGLT2 inhibition alters blood pressure and kidney function in female Dahl SS rats. The result showed that administration of Dapa for 3 weeks prevented the progression of salt-induced hypertension in female rats, similar to its effects in male SS rats. Diuresis and glucose excretion were significantly increased in Dapa-treated rats. SGLT2 inhibition also significantly attenuated kidney but not heart fibrosis. Despite significant effects on blood pressure, Dapa treatment caused minor changes to electrolyte balance and no effects on kidney and heart weights were observed. Our data suggest that SGLT2 inhibition in a non-diabetic model of salt-sensitive hypertension blunts the development of salt-induced hypertension independent of sex.

Abstract
Disclosed herein is a novel and efficient synthesis of dapagliflozin and canagliflozin, the most advanced sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2 inhibitors), for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Per Ac-protected thioester was prepared by the treatment of per Ac d-gluconolactone with 1-dodecanethiol and iPrMgCl without affecting labile Ac-protecting groups. Aryl bromide (ArBr) was synthesized through reduction of diaryl ketone to diaryl methane by the TiCl4/NaBH4/DME-MeOH reduction system. Fukuyama coupling of the thioester with aryl zinc reagent prepared from ArBr gave a multifunctional aryl ketone at 40 °C in a high yield where the use of a limited amount of a mixed solvent (7.2 volumes (v), THF:toluene:DMF = 3v/4v/0.2v) was crucial to achieve the higher yield. After cleavage of the THP group, hydroxy ketone obtained was treated with methanesulfonic acid (MSA) in MeOH to give a methoxy-cyclized product in a single step and in a quantitative yield, which was allowed to silane reduction to furnish dapagliflozin in an excellent yield. By following the same procedure, canagliflozin was synthesized. The current synthetic method is featured by high yields, mild reaction conditions, and the use of inexpensive reagents and readily cleavable protecting groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a severe complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). It has been proposed that modifications in the function of proximal tubule epithelial cells (PTECs) precede glomerular damage during the onset of DKD. This study aimed to identify modifications in renal sodium handling in the early stage of DM and its molecular mechanism. METHODS Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic BALB/c mice (STZ group) and LLC-PK1 cells, a model of PTECs, were used. All parameters were assessed in the 4th week after an initial injection of STZ. RESULTS Early stage of DKD was characterized by hyperfiltration and PTEC dysfunction. STZ group exhibited increased urinary sodium excretion due to impairment of tubular sodium reabsorption. This was correlated to a decrease in cortical (Na++K+)ATPase (NKA) α1 subunit expression and enzyme activity and an increase in O-GlcNAcylation. RNAseq analysis of patients with DKD revealed an increase in expression of the glutamine-fructose aminotransferase (GFAT) gene, a rate-limiting step of hexosamine biosynthetic pathway, and a decrease in NKA expression. Incubation of LLC-PK1 cells with 10 μM thiamet G, an inhibitor of O-GlcNAcase, reduced the expression and activity of NKA and increased O-GlcNAcylation. Furthermore, 6-diazo-5-oxo-L-norleucine (DON), a GFAT inhibitor, or dapagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, avoided the inhibitory effect of HG on expression and activity of NKA associated with the decrease in O-GlcNAcylation. CONCLUSION Our results show that the impairment of tubular sodium reabsorption, in the early stage of DM, is due to SGLT2-mediated HG influx in PTECs, increase in O-GlcNAcylation and reduction in NKA expression and activity.
