Screening And Identification

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is characterized by insulin resistance, and it is hitherto incurable. Among different therapeutic modalities, glucose co-transporter (SGLT) inhibitors have gained prominence. In the current study, we have screened natural compounds as potential SGLT inhibitor and compared with conventional gliflozin drugs. We have selected human SGLT 1 and 2 sequences modeled by homology modeling using SWISS-MODEL server, stability analysis was performed in silico. We used CDOCKER to dock the selected gliflozin drugs and natural compounds with SGLT 1 and 2. We further checked adsorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity using ADMETSAR tools and identified Sophoraflavonone G as a potential natural compound with good binding energy and drug-like characteristics. The molecular dynamic simulation revealed sophoraflavonone G binds with SGLT2 and forms a stable complex.

Renal Glucose Reabsorption

: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the most common forms of the disease worldwide. Hyperglycemia and insulin resistance play key roles in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Renal glucose reabsorption is an essential feature in glycaemic control. Kidneys filter 160 g of glucose daily in healthy subjects under euglycaemic conditions. The expanding epidemic of diabetes leads to a prevalence of diabetes-related cardiovascular disorders, in particular, heart failure and renal dysfunction. Cellular glucose uptake is a fundamental process for homeostasis, growth, and metabolism. In humans, three families of glucose transporters have been identified, including the glucose facilitators GLUTs, the sodium-glucose cotransporter SGLTs, and the recently identified SWEETs. Structures of the major isoforms of all three families were studied. Sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT2) provides most of the capacity for renal glucose reabsorption in the early proximal tubule. A number of cardiovascular outcome trials in patients with type 2 diabetes have been studied with SGLT2 inhibitors reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. : The current review article summarises these aspects and discusses possible mechanisms with SGLT2 inhibitors in protecting heart failure and renal dysfunction in diabetic patients. Through glucosuria, SGLT2 inhibitors reduce body weight and body fat, and shift substrate utilisation from carbohydrates to lipids and, possibly, ketone bodies. These pleiotropic effects of SGLT2 inhibitors are likely to have contributed to the results of the EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial in which the SGLT2 inhibitor, empagliflozin, slowed down the progression of chronic kidney disease and reduced major adverse cardiovascular events in high-risk individuals with type 2 diabetes. This review discusses the role of SGLT2 in the physiology and pathophysiology of renal glucose reabsorption and outlines the unexpected logic of inhibiting SGLT2 in the diabetic kidney.

Background: Although sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2-Is) improve not only glycemic control but also liver inflammation and fatty changes in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), its sustainability and effect on liver fibrosis have remained unclear. The current study aimed to clarify the effects of 48-week SGLT2-I therapy on liver inflammation, fatty changes, and fibrosis in NAFLD patients with T2DM. Methods: This study evaluated the effects of SGLT2-I on NAFLD, including liver fibrosis assessed via transient elastography, in 56 patients with NAFLD who received SGLT2-I for 48 weeks. Moreover, changes in each clinical parameter between patients receiving SGLT2-I (the SGLT2-I group) and those receiving other oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) (the non-SGLT2-I group) were compared, using 1:1 propensity score matching to adjust for baseline factors. Results: The SGLT2-I group exhibited a significant decrease in controlled attenuation parameter (312 dB/m at baseline to 280 dB/m at week 48) and liver stiffness measurement (9.1–6.7 kPa) ( p < 0.001 for both). After propensity score matching (44 patients each in the SGLT2-I and non-SGLT2-I groups), no significant difference in HbA1c decrease was observed between the two groups. However, compared with the non-SGLT2-I group, the SGLT2-I group showed a significant decrease in body weight ( p < 0.001), alanine aminotransferase ( p = 0.02), uric acid ( p < 0.001), and Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) index ( p = 0.01) at week 48. The improvement in FIB-4 index, defined as a ⩾10% decline from baseline at week 48, was 56.8% (25/44) in the SGLT2-I group and 20.5% (9/44) in the non-SGLT2-I group ( p < 0.001). Conclusion: SGLT2-Is improved not only glycemic control but also liver fatty infiltration and fibrosis in patients with NAFLD and T2DM, suggesting their possible superiority to other OHAs concerning these effects.

All Cause Mortality

IntroductionMortality and disability in diabetes mellitus are determined mostly by cardiovascular complications and cancer. The impact of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) monotherapy or combination on long-term complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus was studied.Research design and methodsPatients with type 2 diabetes treated with DPP-4i or SGLT2i during a 3-year period were identified in the database of the National Institute of Health Insurance Fund in Hungary. All-cause mortality, acute myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for heart failure (HHF), lower limb amputation (LLA) and cancer were assessed. Outcomes of add-on SGLT2i to DPP-4i treatment in comparison with switching DPP-4i therapy to SGLT2i were also evaluated. After propensity score matching, survival analysis was performed with a Cox proportional hazards model.ResultsAfter propensity score matching, both SGLT2i and DPP-4i groups included 18 583 patients. All-cause mortality (HR, 0.80; 95% CI 0.68 to 0.94; p=0.0057), HHF (HR, 0.81; 95% CI 0.71 to 0.92; p=0.0018), and risk of cancer (HR, 0.75; 95% CI 0.66 to 0.86; p<0.0001) were lower in the SGLT2i population compared with DPP-4i. Risk of LLA was higher in the SGLT2i group (HR, 1.35; 95% CI 1.03 to 1.77; p=0.0315). SGLT2i in combination with DPP-4i results in lower all-cause mortality (HR, 0.46; 95% CI 0.31 to 0.67; p=0.0001), with a lower trend in stroke, LLA, HHF and cancer, but without any statistical difference.ConclusionsSGLT2i treatment leads to a lower risk of overall mortality, HHF and cancer when compared with DPP-4i treatment. Adding SGLT2i to DPP-4i instead of switching from DPP-4i to SGLT2i further lowers the risk of all-cause mortality.

Currently, only two drugs for reducing uric acid (UA), allopurinol and febuxostat, are registered in the Russian Federation, but their use does not allow to achieve the target level of UA in all cases. According to the results of numerous randomized trials, hyperuricemia and gout are associated with the corresponding components of the metabolic syndrome, including diabetes mellitus. The influence of factors is due to the need to search for new drugs that have a complex effect on several components of metabolic syndrome at once. Potentially attractive in this regard is a new group of drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus inhibitors of the sodium-glucose cotransporter of type 2, which, in addition to the main hypoglycemic actions, showed positive effects on the cardiovascular system, kidneys, as well as lowering UA.
