Clinical and experimental data provide evidence that serine protease dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV, EC 3.4.14.5) is involved in the pathophysiology of psycho-emotional disorders. Recently, we have shown that adolescent and adult rats exhibit an increase in anxiety and depression-related behaviors after neonatal administration of a synthetic non-competitive inhibitor of DPP-IV, methionyl-2(S)-cyano-pyrrolidine. In the present study, we tested the effects of two competitive, selective DPP-IV inhibitors, sitagliptin (4 mg/kg) and diprotin A (2 mg/kg), administered at postnatal days 5 - 18 on the emotional and motivational behavior of adolescent and adult rats. We observed increased anxiety in one-month-old diprotin A- or sitagliptin-treated rats in the elevated plus maze;diprotin A also enhanced the animals’ anxiety score using a ranked scale for evaluating anxiety and phobias. In the sucrose consumption and preference test, depressive-like behavior was pronounced in both the diprotin A- and sitagliptin-treated one-month-old animals, while only the diprotin A-treated rats exhibited a decrease in sucrose consumption at the age of 2 months. The diprotin A-treated rats also demonstrated behavioral despair and decreased activity in the forced swimming test within 1 - 3 months of age. Increased aggression was observed in 1 - 3-month-old diprotin A-treated rats and in two-month-old sitagliptin-treated rats. These findings support the hypothesis that DPP-IV is involved in the genesis of emotional and motivational disorders. Additionally, the results show that diprotin А impairs the adolescent and adult rats’ behavior more significantly than sitagliptin when the animals were treated with the DPP-IV inhibitors in the early postnatal period.展开更多

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

Its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) were investigated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending single-dose study in 48 healthy Japanese male subjects. Fasted subjects were orally administered E3024 (5, 10, 20, 40, or 80 mg) or placebo. E3024 was rapidly absorbed, with tmax values ranging between 0.33 and 3 h after dosing. The mean t1/2 ranged from 5.34 to 11.68 h. AUC0-inf and Cmax increased dose-proportionately. PK-PD relationship of E3024 was evaluated by using an Imax model, indicating that plasma E3024 concentrations and inhibitory effects of plasma DPP-IV activity were well correlated. The IC50 value was calculated as 33.7 ng/mL, which was consistent with in vitro data. Thus, E3024 showed a good PK profile and inhibited DPP-IV dose-dependently. Of 30 subjects administered E3024, 12 (40%) experienced adverse events (AEs). Dose escalation to 160 mg was abandoned owing to undesired subjective/objective findings in 4 of 6 subjects receiving 40 mg and 5 of 6 subjects receiving 80 mg. The most prominent AE was rash, but there were no serious AEs or deaths. The maximum tolerated dose was considered to be 20 mg. We hypothesized that histamine was a cause of the rash induction, and examined blood histamine levels of normal Fischer rats treated with E3024. Blood histamine levels were increased significantly by E3024 at 500 mg/kg (p < 0.001), but not by vildagliptin or valine-pyrrolidide (DPP-IV inhibitors) at the same dose. No blood histamine increases were observed in genetically mast cell-deficient Ws/Ws rats treated with E3024 at 500 mg/kg. In in vitro assays, E3024 induced histamine release from normal rat peritoneal mast cells in a concentration-dependent manner, but not from basophils. The structure-activity relationship study suggested that a piperazine group N-linked to the 2-position of the 5,6-membered fused heterocyclic rings was a key structural element for triggering histamine release.展开更多

Dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibition improves the impaired insulin secretion and decrease postprandial concentrations of glucagon by enhancing the incretin hormone levels lucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide/gastric inhibitory polypeptide(GIP). Recently, DPP IV inhibitors have attracted more and more attention, several of which have entered pre-clinical and clinical trials, and one has received approval for use as an anti-diabetic agent. Among the DPP IV inhibitors, two leading agents(sitagliptin and vildagliptin) have been shown to be effective in reducing glycosylated hemoglobin(HbAlc) and fasting plasma glucose(FPG) in patients with type 2 diabetes. This review summarizes the evidence supporting DPP IV inhibitors as potential antidiabetic agents.展开更多

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.展开更多

文摘AIM:To investigate the mechanism and in vivo effects of MK-0626,a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor,on hepatic steatosis using ob/ob mice.METHODS:We analyzed obese(ob/ob)8-wk-old male mice that had been randomly divided into two groups of ob/ob mice(n=16 each)and were treated with1.5 or 3 mg/kg MK-0626 and two control groups of untreated ob/ob mice and lean littermates(n=16 each).All mice were fed a normal chow diet with or without MK-0626 for either four or eight weeks.Blood samples were collected,and total hepatectomy was performed.RESULTS:The administration of dietary MK-0626 ameliorated the hepatic lipid accumulation in ob/ob micetreated with 3 mg/kg MK-0626(3 MK),P<0.05,vs untreated ob/ob mice(ob/ob).The MK-0626 treatment reduced the serum alanine aminotransferase levels(both treatment groups,P<0.05 vs ob/ob)and glucoses/insulin levels/calculated HOMA scores(1.5 MK,P<0.05vs ob/ob;3 MK,P<0.01 vs ob/ob)and increased the serum adiponectin levels(3 MK,P<0.05 vs ob/ob)in a dose-dependent manner.The MK-0626 treatment increased the m RNA expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorα/microsomal triglyceride transfer protein(1.5 MK,P<0.05 vs ob/ob;3 MK,P<0.01vs ob/ob)but reduced the sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor-1c/fatty acid synthase/stearoyl-Co A desaturase-1(both treatment groups,P<0.01 vs ob/ob).The MK-0626 treatment increased the activity of AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)(both treatment groups,P<0.01 vs ob/ob).CONCLUSION:MK-0626 could attenuate hepatic steatosis through enhancing AMPK activity,inhibiting hepatic lipogenic gene expression,enhancing triglyceride secretion from liver and increasing serum adiponectin levels.
