AbstractStudies on humans with diabetes mellitus showed that the crosstalk between the intestinal microbiota and the host has a key role in controlling the disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of sodium butyrate and high performance inulin supplementation simultaneously or singly on glycemic status, lipid profile, and glucagon-like peptide 1 level in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Sixty patients were recruited for the study. The participants were randomly allocated, using randomized block procedure, to one of the four treatment groups (A, B, C, or D). Group A received sodium butyrate capsules, group B received inulin supplement powder, group C was exposed to the concomitant use of inulin and sodium butyrate, and group D consumed placebo for 45 consecutive days. Markers of glycemia, lipid profile, and glucagon-like peptide 1 were measured pre- and post-intervention. Dietary supplementation in groups A, B, and C significantly reduced diastolic blood pressure in comparison with the placebo group (p<0.05). Also, intra-group statistical analysis showed that only treatment with sodium butyrate + inulin (group C) significantly reduced fasting blood sugar (p=0.049) and waist to hip ratio (p=0.020). Waist circumference in groups B and C reduced significantly after the intervention (p=0.007 and p=0.011; respectively). The post hoc Tukey tests showed significant increase in glucagon-like peptide 1 concentration in groups A and C in comparison with group D (p<0.05). The results suggest that inulin supplementation may be useful to diabetic patients and these effects could be increased with butyrate supplement.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic abnormality leading to microvascular and macrovascular complications. Non-insulin Incretin mimic synthetic peptide exendin-4 was introduced as an anti-diabetic drug which helped diabetic patients with triggering insulin secretion; further researches have revealed an effective role of exendin-4 in treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus related diseases. Exendin-4 is approximately similar to Glucagon-like peptide, thus it can bind to the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor and activated different signaling pathways that are involved in various bioactivities such as apoptosis, insulin secretion and inactivation of microglial. In this review, we investigated the interesting role of exendin-4 in various kinds of type 2 diabetes mellitus related disorders through the activation of different signaling pathways.

Due to the high efficiency of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists therapy in only a part of patients, the search for predictors of response to the treatment is a relevant problem. Purpose. The purpose is to compare the efficacy of liraglutide and exenatide therapy in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to evaluate the predictors of response to glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), weight and lipids reduction. Material and methods. The study included 47 patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity who received GLP-1 receptor agonists therapy. 26 patients were treated with liraglutide, 21 patients were treated with exenatide. We measured the parameters of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, the levels of hormones involved in glucose and lipids metabolism and in appetite regulation. Blood pressure was measured. These parameters were evaluated at baseline and after 24 weeks of treatment. Results. Patients receiving exenatide therapy showed a tendency towards more frequent HbA1c level reduction by 1% or more (60% versus 30.4%, p = 0.07). The effects of liraglutide and exenatide on weight and waist circumference were comparable. When assessing the predictors of response to the therapy, a more pronounced decrease in HbA1c level (by 1% or more) was in the patients with a higher initial HbA1c level (8.7 (8.2; 9.7) versus 8.2 (6.9; 8.7)%, p = 0.04), as well as with a higher initial GLP-1 level (0.12 (0.05; 0.17) versus 0.040 (0.01; 0.09) ng/ml.) A more significant decrease in the triglycerides (TG) level was detected in patients with a higher level of glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) before therapy (409 (316.0; 431.4) pg/ml in patients who reduced TG level by 30% or more and 331.5 (324.9; 367.1) pg/ml in patients with a lower decrease in TG level). Among the studied parameters, no predictors of body mass reduction were revealed. Conclusion. Measurement of HbA1c, GLP-1, GIP level may be useful to predict the efficacy of GLP-1 receptor agonists therapy.

In addition to the previously developed recombinant modified human glucagon-like peptide 1 (rmglp1, Glypin), a recombinant modified human glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (RMGIP) has been obtained. A new universal reverse-phase HPLC technique has been proposed allowing quantitative analysis of rmGlp1 and rmGip separately and as part of a two-component preparation. The data show that the design of recombinant human rmGip according to the Glypine formula makes it possible to produce one-component and two-component preparations containing various rmGip and rmGlp1 protein ratios ranging from 1:0 to 20:1, using cell biomass samples mixed in predetermined proportions. Studies of human rmGip activity in a mouse model revealed reduced specific activity and signs of weak antagonistic effects. In this regard, there is a need for further study of human rmGip activity in a mouse model, including the use of alternative mouse or rat rmGip. type 2 diabetes mellitus; two-component drug, glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide, glucagon-like peptide-1 The work was supported by the Internal Grant from National Research Center Kurchatov Institute.
