DPP4 inhibition prevents AKI
With great interest we have read the publication “Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor use is associated with a lower risk of incident acute kidney injury in patients with diabetes” by Chao et al., demonstrating for the first time in a large scale prospectively designed cohort study that the use of DPP-4 inhibitors is associated with a significant risk reduction for the development of acute kidney ...
متن کاملDPP4 inhibition improves functional outcome after renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.
Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) is an exopeptidase which modulates the function of its substrates, among which are insulin-releasing incretins. DPP4 inhibitors are currently used to improve glucose tolerance in type 2 diabetes patients. Inhibition of DPP4 exhibits protective effects on ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) of the heart and lung. As DPP4 and its substrates are also expressed in the ki...
متن کاملPotency, selectivity and prolonged binding of saxagliptin to DPP4: maintenance of DPP4 inhibition by saxagliptin in vitro and ex vivo when compared to a rapidly-dissociating DPP4 inhibitor
BACKGROUND Dipeptidylpeptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors have clinical benefit in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus by increasing levels of glucose-lowering incretin hormones, such as glucagon-like peptide -1 (GLP-1), a peptide with a short half life that is secreted for approximately 1 hour following a meal. Since drugs with prolonged binding to their target have been shown to maximize pharmaco...
متن کاملSubclinical AKI is still AKI
The concept of acute kidney syndromes has shifted in recent years from acute renal failure to acute kidney injury (AKI). AKI implies injury or damage but not necessarily dysfunction. The human kidney has an important glomerular function reserve, and dysfunction becomes evident only when more than 50% of the renal mass is compromised. Recent AKI classifications include even slight changes in ser...
متن کاملGenetic or pharmacologic inhibition of EGFR ameliorates sepsis-induced AKI
Despite recent studies have demonstrated that the EGF receptor (EGFR) activation provided a renoprotective role during ischemic and folic acid-induced AKI, the role and regulation mechanism of EGFR in septic AKI remains unclear. Here, gefitinib, a highly selective EGFR inhibitor, abrogated LPS-induced phosphorylation of EGFR, ERK1/2, and STAT3 as well as expression of COX, eNOS, and proinflamma...
