Randomized control trial studies were selected for inclusion if they reported on pancreatic complication events and/or changes in pancreatic enzyme levels(serum amylase and serum lipase) as adverse events or as serious adverse events for patients who were on GLP-1 receptor agonist and DPP-4 inhibitor drugs. Two independent reviewers extracted data directly. We performed Peto odds ratio(OR) fixed effect meta-analysis of pancreatic adverse events a, and assessed heterogeneity with the I^2 statistic.RESULTS: Sixty-eight randomized controlled trials were eligible. A total of 60720 patients were included in our analysis of the association of risk of pancreatic complication events with GLP-1 agents. A total of 89 pancreatic related adverse events occurred among the GLP-1 agents compared to 74 events among the controls. There was a statistically significant increased risk of elevation of pancreatic enzymes associated with GLP-1 agents compared with control(Peto OR = 3.15, 95%CI: 1.56-6.39, P = 0.001, I2 = 0%). There was no statistically significant difference in the risk of pancreatic adverse event associated with GLP-1 agent compared with controls(Peto OR = 1.00, 95%CI: 0.73-1.37, P = 1.00, I2 = 0%). There were a total of 71 pancreatitis events in patients on GLP-1 agents and 56 pancreatitis events occurred in the control patients. There were 36 reports of pancreatic cancer in these studies. Of these cases, 2 used linagliptin, 2 used alogliptin, 1 used vildagliptin, 7 used saxagliptin while 6 used sitagliptin. The remaining 18 cases occurred among controls.CONCLUSION: Although GLP-1 based agents are associated with pancreatic enzyme elevation, we were unable to confirm a significant risk of pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer.展开更多

METHODS This study uses control group post test only with male spraque dawley rats.Diabetic rats was induced by High Fructose Diet(HFD)and single dose streptozotocin 25mg·kg-1 bw intra peritoneal.The rat was administrated orally with ethanolic extract of U.lobataleaves in dose of 250,500 and 1000mg·kg-1 for 4weeks.Blood sample were collected from the tail vein at 15 min after oral glucose administration and then DPP-Ⅳserum level and GLP-1were examined using a rat elisa kits of DPP-Ⅳ and GLP-1.The data was analyzed using ANOVA test continued with LSD test(P<0.05).RESULTS The oral administration of U.lobataleaves extract at dose of 250,500 and 1000mg·kg-1 bw were able to prolong GLP-1 bioavaibility approximately 5,2and 2.5-fold respectively compared to diabetic group(P<0.05),while the DPP-Ⅳ serum level was decreased by 60%,50% and 40%(P<0.05),respectively.In diabetic groups,DPP-Ⅳ serum level was increased more and less 4-fold compared to normal group(P<0.05)while the GLP level were decreased by 8-fold(P<0.05).CONCLUSION U.lobataleaves extract could prolong GLP-1 bioavaibility by reducing of DPP-Ⅳserum level.This effect may be related to active compounds that act as an DPP-Ⅳinhibitor in U.lobata extract.展开更多

文摘OBJECTIVE To investigate effect of Urenalobataleaves extract on glucagon like peptide-1(GLP-1)serum level by inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-Ⅳ(DPP-Ⅳ)on diabetic rat. METHODS This study uses control group post test only with male spraque dawley rats.Diabetic rats was induced by High Fructose Diet(HFD)and single dose streptozotocin 25mg·kg-1 bw intra peritoneal.The rat was administrated orally with ethanolic extract of U.lobataleaves in dose of 250,500 and 1000mg·kg-1 for 4weeks.Blood sample were collected from the tail vein at 15 min after oral glucose administration and then DPP-Ⅳserum level and GLP-1were examined using a rat elisa kits of DPP-Ⅳ and GLP-1.The data was analyzed using ANOVA test continued with LSD test(P<0.05).RESULTS The oral administration of U.lobataleaves extract at dose of 250,500 and 1000mg·kg-1 bw were able to prolong GLP-1 bioavaibility approximately 5,2and 2.5-fold respectively compared to diabetic group(P<0.05),while the DPP-Ⅳ serum level was decreased by 60%,50% and 40%(P<0.05),respectively.In diabetic groups,DPP-Ⅳ serum level was increased more and less 4-fold compared to normal group(P<0.05)while the GLP level were decreased by 8-fold(P<0.05).CONCLUSION U.lobataleaves extract could prolong GLP-1 bioavaibility by reducing of DPP-Ⅳserum level.This effect may be related to active compounds that act as an DPP-Ⅳinhibitor in U.lobata extract.

文摘Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists(GLP-1RAs)and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors are commonly used treatments for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Both anti-diabetic treatments function by playing key modulatory roles in the incretin system.Though these drugs have been deemed effective in treating T2DM,the Food and Drug Administration(FDA)and some members of the scientific community have questioned the safety of these therapeutics relative to important cardiovascular endpoints.As a result,since 2008,the FDA has required all new drugs for glycemic control in T2DM patients to demonstrate cardiovascular safety.The present review article strives to assess the safety and benefits of incretin-based therapy,a new class of antidiabetic drug,on the health of patient cardiovascular systems.In the process,this review will also provide a physiological overview of the incretin system and how key components function in T2DM.
