The Association between GLP-1 Receptor-Based Agonists and the Incidence of Asthma in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and/or Obesity:A Meta-Analysis

Objective Recent studies have indicated potential anti-inflammatory effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists(GLP-1RAs)on asthma,which is often comorbid with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and obesity.Therefore,we conducted a meta-analysis to assess the association between the administration of glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1)receptor-based agonists and the incidence of asthma in patients with T2DM and/or obesity.Methods PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials,and Clinicaltrial.gov were systematically searched from inception to July 2023.Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of GLP-1 receptor-based agonists(GLP-1RA,GLP-1 based dual and triple receptor agonist)with reports of asthma events were included.Outcomes were computed as risk ratios(RR)using a fixedeffects model.Results Overall,39 RCTs with a total of 85,755 participants were included.Compared to non-GLP-1 receptor-based agonist users,a trend of reduced risk of asthma was observed in patients with T2DM or obesity using GLP-1 receptor-based agonist treatments,although the difference was not statistically significant[RR=0.91,95%confidence interval(CI):0.68 to 1.24].Further Subgroup analyses indicated that the use of light-molecular-weight GLP-1RAs might be associated with a reduced the risk of asthma when compared with non-users(RR=0.65,95%CI:0.43 to 0.99,P=0.043).We also performed sensitivity analyses for participant characteristics,study design,drug structure,duration of action,and drug subtypes.However,no significant associations were observed.Conclusion Compared with non-users,a modest reduction in the incidence of asthma was observed in patients with T2DM or obesity using GLP-1 receptor-based agonist treatments.Further investigations are warranted to assess the association between GLP-1 receptor-based agonists and the risk of asthma.

A Retrospective Analysis of Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor Agonists in Treating Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Complicated by Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Background: The objective of this study was to compare and analyze the variations in clinical indices before and after treatment of type 2 mellitus (T2DM) combined with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) that were treated with glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs). Methods: The electronic medical record system was utilized to search for a total of 16 patients with type 2 diabetes complicated by NAFLD who were hospitalized at the First Affiliated Hospital of Yangtze University from October 2022 to April 2023 and treated with GLP-1RA for the first time. The clinical indices were compared before and after 12 weeks of treatment with GLP-1RA. Results: The liver-spleen CT ratio (L/S), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in all patients treated with GLP-1RA after 12 weeks were significantly different (P 0.05). The patients were categorized into two groups based on the types of GLP-1RAs. The changes in L/S, TC, TG, and LDL-C in the long-acting group after treatment were statistically significant (P Conclusions: GLP-1RAs can improve liver function, regulate lipid metabolism, and reduce the severity of fatty liver in patients with T2DM complicated by NAFLD, which demonstrates the importance of clinical applications.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in type 2 diabetes:Emerging evidence of benefit of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors agonists and incretin-based therapies

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)is a global epidemic,affecting more than half of the people living with type 2 diabetes(T2D).The relationship between NAFLD and T2D is bidirectional and the presence of one perpetuates the other,which significantly increases the hepatic as well as extrahepatic complications.Until recently,there was no approved pharmacological treatment for NAFLD/nonalcoholic steatohepatitits(NASH).However,there is evidence that drugs used for diabetes may have beneficial effects on NAFLD.Insulin sensitizers acting through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor(PPAR)modulation act on multiple levels of NAFLD pathogenesis.Pioglitazone(PPARγ agonist)and saroglitazar(PPARα/γagonist)are particularly beneficial and recommended by several authoritative bodies for treating NAFLD in T2D,although data on biopsyproven NASH are lacking with the latter.Initial data on elafibanor(PPARα/δ agonist)and Lanifibranor(pan PPAR agonist)are promising.On the other hand,incretin therapies based on glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1)receptor agonists(GLP-1RA)and dual-and triple-hormone receptor co-agonists reported impressive weight loss and may have anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic properties.GLP-1 RAs have shown beneficial effects on NAFLD/NASH and more studies on potential direct effects on liver function by dual-and triple-agonists are required.Furthermore,the long-term safety of these therapies in NAFLD needs to be established.Collaborative efforts among healthcare providers such as primary care doctors,hepatologists,and endocrinologists are warranted for selecting patients for the best possible management of NAFLD in T2D.

Simultaneous Determination of 14 β-Receptor Agonists Residues in Mutton by High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS)

[Objectives]A high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS)method was established for the determination of 14β-receptor agonist residues in mutton.[Methods]Samples were hydrolyzed byβ-glucuronidase and extracted with 5%acetic acid-acetonitrile(1:99,V/V)solution.An Eclipse plus C 18 column was used for separation,and the MRM mode was used for qualitative analysis,and the external standard method was used for quantitative analysis of matrix standard solutions.[Results]Under the optimal conditions,the retention time of the 14 kinds ofβ-receptor agonists ranged from 1.0 to 9.5 min.When the mass concentration was in the range of 0.05-0.50μg/ml,the linear relationship ofβ-receptor agonists was good,with correlation coefficients(r)≥0.9992.The detection limits of the method were in the range of 0.04-0.87μg/kg,and the quantitative limits were in the range of 0.35-1.86μg/kg.The average recovery values were in the range of 82.8%-108.9%,with RSDs(n=6)in the range of 1.9%-6.7%.[Conclusions]The method is simple,sensitive,reproducible,accurate,and can be used for simultaneous determination of the 14 kinds ofβ-receptor agonist residues in mutton.

Effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists on glucose excursion and inflammation in overweight or obese type 2 diabetic patients

BACKGROUND Currently,the lack of comparative studies between weekly and daily formulations of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists(GLP-1RAs)for glucose excursion is worth investigation.AIM To investigate the effects of weekly and daily formulations of GLP-1RA on glucose excursion and inflammation in overweight and obese patients with type 2 diabetes.METHODS Seventy patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were treated at our hospital between January 2019 and January 2022 were enrolled in this retrospective analysis.All patients were treated with metformin.We evaluated changes in blood glucose levels and a series of important indicators in patients before and after treatment with either a weekly or daily preparation of GLP-1RA(group A;n=33 and group B;n=37).RESULTS The degree of decrease in the levels of fasting blood glucose,mean blood glucose,mean amplitude of glycemic excursions,total cholesterol,triglycerides,tumor necrosis factor-α,interleukin-6,and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein after treatment in group A was higher than that in group B(P<0.05),whereas the 2-h postprandial blood glucose levels decreased more so in group B than in group A(P<0.001).However,there were no statistically significant differences in the levels of glycated hemoglobin,standard deviation of blood glucose,coefficient of variation,absolute mean of daily differences,percentage of time with 3.9 mmol/L<glucose<10 mmol/L,and high-and low-density lipoproteins between the two groups(P>0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions was significantly lower in group A than in group B(P<0.05).CONCLUSION The effect of the weekly preparation of GLP-1RA in controlling blood glucose levels in the patients,suppressing inflammation,and reducing adverse reactions was significantly higher than that of the daily preparations,which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Head-to-head comparison of H_2-receptor antagonists and proton pump inhibitors in the treatment of erosive esophagitis: A meta-analysis

AIM: To systematically evaluate the efficacy of H2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs) and proton pump inhibitors in healing erosive esophagitis (EE).METHODS: A meta-analysis was performed. A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Cochrane databases to include randomized controlled head-to-head comparative trials evaluating the efficacy of H2RAs or proton pump inhibitors in healing EE. Relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated under a random-effects model.RESULTS: RRs of cumulative healing rates for each comparison at 8 wk were: high dose vs standard dose H2RAs,1.17 (95%CI, 1.02-1.33); standard dose proton pump inhibitors vsstandard dose H2RAs, 1.59 (95%CI, 1.44-1.75);standard dose other proton pump inhibitors vs standard dose omeprazole, 1.06 (95%CI, 0.98-1.06). Proton pump inhibitors produced consistently greater healing rates than H2RAs of all doses across all grades of esophagitis, including patients refractory to H2RAs. Healing rates achieved with standard dose omeprazole were similar to those with other proton pump inhibitors in all grades of esophagitis.CONCLUSION: H2RAS are less effective for treating patients with erosive esophagitis, especially in those with severe forms of esophagitis. Standard dose proton pump inhibitors are significantly more effective than H2RAs in healing esophagitis of all grades. Proton pump inhibitors given at the recommended dose are equally effective for healing esophagitis.

Activation of β_2-Adrenergic Receptor Induced by Three Catecholamine Agonists:a Docking and Molecular Dynamics Study

We studied the activation of β2-adrenergic receptor（β2AR） by norepinephrine, epinephrine and isoprote- renol using docking and molecular dynamics（MD） simulation. The simulation was done on the assumption that β2AR was surrounded with explicit water and infinite lipid bilayer membrane at body temperature. So the result should be close to that under the physiological conditions. We calculated the structure of binding sites in β2AR for the three ac- tivators. We also simulated the change of the conformation ofβ2AR in the transmembrane regions（TMs）, in the mo- lecular switches, and in the conserved DRY（Aspartic acid, Arginine and Tyrosine） motif. This study provides detailed information concerning the structure ofβ2AR during activation process.

目的 对胰高血糖素样肽1受体激动剂(GLP-1RA)联合二甲双胍治疗2型糖尿病(T2DM)进行经济学评价。方法 从我国卫生体系角度出发,基于7项GLP-1RA联合二甲双胍治疗T2DM的随机对照试验(RCT),构建二甲双胍单药或联合GLP-1RA治疗T2DM的Markov模型,模拟治疗期间T2DM无并发症、T2DM伴并发症以及死亡3种状态的动态变化。模型以质量调整生命年(QALYs)为健康产出指标、以3倍我国2023年人均国内生产总值(GDP)为意愿支付(WTP)阈值。模型循环周期设定为1年,共计模拟20年,采用Markov模型进行队列模拟,以增量成本-效用比(ICUR)为评价指标,从而获得每种治疗策略的长期成本、效用及其经济性。通过对成本、效用及贴现的敏感性分析,检验研究结果的稳定性。结果 与二甲双胍单药治疗相比,5种GLP-1RA类药物(利拉鲁肽、度拉糖肽、艾塞那肽、聚乙二醇洛塞那肽、司美格鲁肽)联合二甲双胍治疗方案的ICUR均小于3倍我国2023年人均GDP,增加的成本可接受。敏感性分析中各参数在设定的范围内变化,或将模拟时间延长至30年或50年,对研究结论无显著影响;概率敏感性分析结果表明,WTP阈值为3倍我国2023年人均GDP值(268 074元)时,二甲双胍联合司美格鲁肽0.5 mg方案具有成本-效用优势的概率最高,约为99.7%。结论 对于T2DM患者,相比于二甲双胍单药治疗,利拉鲁肽、度拉糖肽、艾塞那肽、聚乙二醇洛塞那肽、司美格鲁肽以说明书推荐剂量联合二甲双胍治疗方案均属于优势方案,具有经济性。

5种GLP-1RAs治疗二甲双胍控制不佳的2型糖尿病的成本-效用分析

目的评估5种胰高血糖素样肽-1受体激动剂(GLP-1RAs)治疗二甲双胍控制血糖不佳的2型糖尿病(T2DM)的长期经济性。方法提取既往发表的荟萃分析及其纳入的随机对照研究(RCT)中患者的基线数据,使用英国前瞻性糖尿病研究结果模型2.1预测各组患者的生存情况、长期疗效和成本,采用成本-效用分析法比较5种GLP-1RAs(利拉鲁肽、利司那肽、艾塞那肽、度拉糖肽和司美格鲁肽)的经济性;采用敏感性分析和情境分析验证基础分析结果的稳定性。结果共纳入21项RCT,6796名患者。生存曲线表明,司美格鲁肽在降低因心血管疾病死亡风险上、度拉糖肽在降低全因死亡风险上较其他GLP-1RAs具有优势。成本-效用分析结果显示,5种方案的经济性从优到劣排序依次为利司那肽、司美格鲁肽、艾塞那肽、度拉糖肽和利拉鲁肽。单因素敏感性分析和概率敏感性分析表明基础分析结果稳健。情境分析结果显示,司美格鲁肽的价格至少降低54.64%,降至369.21元,其对比利司那肽才具有经济性。结论对于使用二甲双胍治疗后血糖控制不佳的我国T2DM患者,临床可考虑优先选择利司那肽和司美格鲁肽。

哮喘治疗中β_(2)-AR激动药诱发受体脱敏的发生机制及预防进展

β_(2)-肾上腺素受体(β_(2)-AR)激动药作为治疗支气管哮喘(以下简称“哮喘”)的一线药物,在临床中广泛应用,然而长期使用可导致β_(2)-AR脱敏,降低其临床疗效,致使部分哮喘患者症状控制欠佳。β_(2)-AR激动药引起β_(2)-AR脱敏的机制主要包括慢速脱敏(与气道黏膜β_(2)-AR密度减小有关)和快速脱敏(与刺激性G蛋白脱偶联机制有关)。环磷酸腺苷(cAMP)-蛋白激酶A和cAMPcAMP激活的交换蛋白信号通路与β_(2)-AR脱敏过程关系密切。糖皮质激素、过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体γ激动药、ASM-024、中药单药及成方等与β_(2)-AR激动药联合使用时能改善β_(2)-AR的敏感性,从而更好地控制哮喘症状。

Repeat recurrence of takotsubo cardiomyopathy related to inhaled beta-2-adrenoceptor agonists

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (also referred to as transient apical ballooning syndrome, broken heart syndrome or stress cardiomyopathy) is an increasingly recognized entity in the western world typically characterized by reversible left ventricular dysfunction that develops in the setting of acute severe emotional or physical stress. Increased catecholamine levels have been proposed to play a central role in the pathogenesis of the disease, although the specific pathophysiology of this condition remains elusive at the present moment. In recent times, there have been reports of takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) following medical interventions such as invasive or surgical procedures or specific medical regimens. In the current report, we present a patient with multiple recurrences of TC triggered by the same medical therapeutic intervention; in our particular case, repetitive exposure to inhaled beta-2-adrenoceptor agonist.

Treatment of type 2 diabetes, lifestyle, GLP1 agonists and DPP4 inhibitors

In recent years the treatment focus for type 2 diabetes has shifted to prevention by lifestyle change and to more aggressive reduction of blood sugars during the early stage of treatment. Weight reduction is an important goal for many people with type 2 diabetes.Bariatric surgery is no longer considered a last resort treatment. Glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists given by injection are emerging as a useful treatment since they not only lower blood sugar but are associated with a modest weight reduction. The role of the oral dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors is emerging as second line treatment ahead of sulphonylureas due to a possible beneficial effect on the beta cell and weight neutrality.Drugs which inhibit glucose re-absorption in the kidney,sodium/glucose co-transport 2 inhibitors, may have a role in the treatment of diabetes. Insulin treatment still remains the cornerstone of treatment in many patients with type 2 diabetes.

目的系统评价胰高血糖素样肽1受体激动剂(GLP-1RA)治疗合并超重或肥胖2型糖尿病(T2DM)患者的有效性与安全性。方法计算机检索PubMed、Embase、Cochrane Library、Ovid、ClinicalTrial.gov、SinoMed、CNKI、WanFang Data和VIP数据库,搜集有关GLP-1RA治疗T2DM合并超重或肥胖患者的随机对照试验(RCT),检索时限均从2005年1月1日至2023年11月1日。由2位研究者独立筛选文献、提取资料并评价纳入研究的偏倚风险后,采用R软件进行Meta分析,并采用GRADE系统进行证据质量评价。结果共纳入71个RCT,包括29476例患者。Meta分析结果显示,相比于其他降糖药,GLP-1RA在改善糖化血红蛋白[WMD=-0.55,95%CI(-0.65,-0.45),P<0.001]、减重[WMD=-2.61,95%CI(-3.25,-1.97),P<0.001]方面均具有优势;GLP-1RA对空腹血糖的改善效果呈时间依赖性[16周以内:WMD=0.25,95%CI(-0.17,0.66),P=0.250;16~52周:WMD=-0.06,95%CI(-0.32,0.20),P=0.650;>52~104周:WMD=-1.67,95%CI(-1.91,-1.43),P<0.001];安全性方面,GLP-1RA的总体不良反应发生率较高[RR=1.11,95%CI(1.07,1.15),P<0.001];但低血糖发生率低于胰岛素[RR=0.58,95%CI(0.48,0.71),P<0.001],而与口服降糖药的差异无统计学意义[RR=0.83,95%CI(0.58,1.19),P=0.310]。GRADE系统评价显示,仅低血糖发生率的证据等级为中等,其余结局指标的证据水平均为低级。结论当前证据显示,对于T2DM合并肥胖或超重患者,GLP-1RA尤其是司美格鲁肽相比于安慰剂、胰岛素或口服降糖药,能更有效兼顾降糖和减重,虽总体不良反应较多,但可减少低血糖发生。

EVs-mediated delivery of CB2 receptor agonist for Alzheimer’s disease therapy

Alzheimer’s disease(AD)is a typical neurodegenerative disease that leads to irreversible neuronal degeneration,and effective treatment remains elusive due to the unclear mechanism.We utilized biocompatible mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles as carriers loaded with the CB2 target medicine AM1241(EVs-AM1241)to protect against neurodegenerative progression and neuronal function in AD model mice.According to the results,EVs-AM1241 were successfully constructed and exhibited better bioavailability and therapeutic effects than bare AM1241.The Morris water maze(MWM)and fear conditioning tests revealed that the learning and memory of EVs-AM1241-treated model mice were significantly improved.In vivo electrophysiological recording of CA1 neurons indicated enhanced response to an auditory conditioned stimulus following fear learning.Immunostaining and Western blot analysis showed that amyloid plaque deposition and amyloidβ(Aβ)-induced neuronal apoptosis were significantly suppressed by EVs-AM1241.Moreover,EVs-AM1241 increased the number of neurons and restored the neuronal cytoskeleton,indicating that they enhanced neuronal regeneration.RNA sequencing revealed that EVs-AM1241 facilitated Aβphagocytosis,promoted neurogenesis and ultimately improved learning and memory through the calcium-Erk signaling pathway.Our study showed that EVs-AM1241 efficiently reversed neurodegenerative pathology and enhanced neurogenesis in modelmice,indicating that they are very promising particles for treating AD.

Metabolic and cardiovascular benefits with combination therapy of SGLT-2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists in type 2 diabetes

Both GLP-1 receptor agonists(GLP-1RA)and SGLT-2 inhibitors(SGLT-2I)are newer classes of anti-diabetic agents that lower HbA1c moderately and decrease body weight and systolic blood pressure(SBP)modestly.Combination therapy with GLP-1RA plus SGLT-2I have shown a greater reduction in HbA1c,body weight,and SBP compared to either agent alone without any significant increase in hypoglycemia or other side effects.Since several agents from each class of these drugs have shown an improvement in cardiovascular(CV)and renal outcomes in their respective cardiovascular outcome trials(CVOT),combination therapy is theoretically expected to have additional CV and renal benefits.In this comprehensive opinion review,we found HbA1c lowering with GLP-1RA plus SGLT-2I to be less than additive compared to the sum of HbA1c lowering with either agent alone,although body weight lowering was nearly additive and the SBP lowering was more than additive.Our additional meta-analysis of CV outcomes with GLP1RA plus SGLT-2I combination therapy from the pooled data of five CVOT found a similar reduction in three-point major adverse cardiovascular events compared to GLP-1RA or SGLT-2I alone,against placebo.Interestingly,a greater benefit in reduction of heart failure hospitalization with GLP-1RA plus SGLT-2I combination therapy was noted in the pooled meta-analysis of two randomized controlled trials.Future adequately powered trials can confirm whether additional CV or renal benefit is truly exerted by GLP-1RA plus SGLT-2I combination therapy.
