Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist exendin-4 (Ex-4) is a remedy for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Ex-4 ameliorates cardiac dysfunction induced by myocardial infarction in preclinical and clinical settings. However, it remains unclear whether Ex-4 may modulate diabetic cardiomyopathy. We tested the impact of Ex-4 on two types of diabetic cardiomyopathy models, genetic (KK) and acquired T2DM induced by high-fat diet [diet-induced obesity (DIO)], to clarify whether Ex-4 may combat independently of etiology. Each type of mice was divided into Ex-4 (24 nmol·kg−1·day−1 for 40 days; KK-ex4 and DIO-ex4) and vehicle (KK-v and DIO-v) groups. Ex-4 ameliorated systemic and cardiac insulin resistance and dyslipidemia in both T2DM models. T2DM mice exhibited systolic (DIO-v) and diastolic (DIO-v and KK-v) left ventricular dysfunctions, which were restored by Ex-4 with reduction in left ventricular hypertrophy. DIO-v and KK-v exhibited increased myocardial fibrosis and steatosis (lipid accumulation), in which were observed cardiac mitochondrial remodeling and enhanced mitochondrial oxidative damage. Ex-4 treatment reversed these cardiac remodeling and oxidative stress. Cytokine array revealed that Ex-4-sensitive inflammatory cytokines were ICAM-1 and macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Ex-4 ameliorated myocardial oxidative stress via suppression of NADPH oxidase 4 with concomitant elevation of antioxidants (SOD-1 and glutathione peroxidase). In conclusion, GLP-1R agonism reverses cardiac remodeling and dysfunction observed in T2DM via normalizing imbalance of lipid metabolism and related inflammation/oxidative stress.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a novel antidiabetic agent used in clinical practice. Recently, it was reported to exert a renoprotective effect in the human kidney-2 cells and kidneys of diabetic rats, which was induced by one type of GLP-1 analog, liraglutide, in the presence of high glucose. However, most of the previous findings mainly focused on its indirect effect in inhibiting the advanced glycation end products. Here, besides glycemic control, we also demonstrated a stimulatory role of liraglutide in promoting autophagy and relieving oxidative stress in Zucker diabetic fatty rats. The renoprotective effect of liraglutide has been demonstrated by significantly decreasing urinary albumin ( P < 0.01) and ameliorating renal pathological changes ( P < 0.001) in vivo. Besides that, proliferation of human epithelial kidney cell line HKC-8 and human embryonic kidney-293 cells has increased after treating with exendin-4, a GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist. Moreover, GLP-1 could positively improve the progression of autophagy in vivo and in vitro through regulating the autophagy-related protein light chain 3 and p62 via AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. Simultaneously, it could reverse NF-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) translocation into the nuclei and suppress oxidative stress. In terms of mechanism, the renoprotective effect of GLP-1 would be exerted via the GLP-1R-AMPK-mTOR-autophagy-reactive oxygen species signaling axis. The present study not only illustrates the renoprotective effect of GLP-1 in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) rats, but also for the first time elucidates the underlying mechanism that is independent of controlling glucose, which implies that GLP-1 might be a novel therapeutic strategy for the prevention and treatment of DKD.

MicroRNAs expressed in adipocytes are involved in transcriptional regulation of target mRNAs in obesity, but miRNAs critically involved in this process is not well characterized. Here, we identified upregulation of miR-221-3p and miR-222-3p in the white adipose tissues in C57BL/6 mice fed with high fat-high sucrose (HFHS) chow by RNA sequencing. Mir221 and Mir222 are paralogous genes and share the common seed sequence and Mir221/222AdipoKO mice fed with HFHS chow demonstrated resistance to the development of obesity compared with Mir221/222flox/y. Ddit4 is a direct target of Mir221 and Mir222, and the upregulation of Ddit4 in Mir221/222AdipoKO was associated with the suppression of TSC2 (tuberous sclerosis complex 2)/mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1)/S6K (ribosomal protein S6 kinase) pathway. The overexpression of miR-222-3p linked to enhanced adipogenesis, and it may be a potential candidate for miRNA-based therapy.

Due to the high efficiency of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists therapy in only a part of patients, the search for predictors of response to the treatment is a relevant problem. Purpose. The purpose is to compare the efficacy of liraglutide and exenatide therapy in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to evaluate the predictors of response to glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), weight and lipids reduction. Material and methods. The study included 47 patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity who received GLP-1 receptor agonists therapy. 26 patients were treated with liraglutide, 21 patients were treated with exenatide. We measured the parameters of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, the levels of hormones involved in glucose and lipids metabolism and in appetite regulation. Blood pressure was measured. These parameters were evaluated at baseline and after 24 weeks of treatment. Results. Patients receiving exenatide therapy showed a tendency towards more frequent HbA1c level reduction by 1% or more (60% versus 30.4%, p = 0.07). The effects of liraglutide and exenatide on weight and waist circumference were comparable. When assessing the predictors of response to the therapy, a more pronounced decrease in HbA1c level (by 1% or more) was in the patients with a higher initial HbA1c level (8.7 (8.2; 9.7) versus 8.2 (6.9; 8.7)%, p = 0.04), as well as with a higher initial GLP-1 level (0.12 (0.05; 0.17) versus 0.040 (0.01; 0.09) ng/ml.) A more significant decrease in the triglycerides (TG) level was detected in patients with a higher level of glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) before therapy (409 (316.0; 431.4) pg/ml in patients who reduced TG level by 30% or more and 331.5 (324.9; 367.1) pg/ml in patients with a lower decrease in TG level). Among the studied parameters, no predictors of body mass reduction were revealed. Conclusion. Measurement of HbA1c, GLP-1, GIP level may be useful to predict the efficacy of GLP-1 receptor agonists therapy.

AbstractGlucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists have shown cardioprotective effects which have been suggested to be mediated through inhibition of oxidative stress. We investigated the effect of treatment with a glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (liraglutide) on oxidative stress measured as urinary nucleic acid oxidation in persons with type 2 diabetes. Post-hoc analysis of two independent, randomised, placebo-controlled and double-blinded clinical trials. In a cross-over study where persons with type 2 diabetes and microalbuminuria (LIRALBU, n = 32) received liraglutide (1.8 mg/day) or placebo for 12 weeks in random order, separated by 4 weeks of wash-out. In a parallel-grouped study where obese persons with type 2 diabetes (SAFEGUARD, n = 56) received liraglutide (1.8 mg/day), sitagliptin (100 mg/day) or placebo for 12 weeks. Endpoints were changes in the urinary markers of DNA oxidation (8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG)) and RNA oxidation [8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (8-oxoGuo)]. In LIRALBU, we observed no significant differences between treatment periods in urinary excretion of 8-oxodG [0.028 (standard error (SE): 0.17] nmol/mmol creatinine, p = 0.87) or of 8-oxoGuo [0.12 (0.12) nmol/mmol creatinine, p = 0.31]. In SAFEGUARD, excretion of 8-oxodG was not changed in the liraglutide group [2.8 (− 8.51; 15.49) %, p = 0.62] but a significant decline was demonstrated in the placebo group [12.6 (− 21.3; 3.1) %, p = 0.02], resulting in a relative increase in the liraglutide group compared to placebo (0.16 nmol/mmol creatinine, SE 0.07, p = 0.02). Treatment with sitagliptin compared to placebo demonstrated no significant difference (0.07 (0.07) nmol/mmol creatinine, p = 0.34). Nor were any significant differences for urinary excretion of 8-oxoGuo liraglutide vs placebo [0.09 (SE: 0.07) nmol/mmol creatinine, p = 0.19] or sitagliptin vs placebo [0.07 (SE: 0.07) nmol/mmol creatinine, p = 0.35] observed. This post-hoc analysis could not demonstrate a beneficial effect of 12 weeks of treatment with liraglutide or sitagliptin on oxidatively generated modifications of nucleic acid in persons with type 2 diabetes.

The gastrointestinal system may be involved in the etiopathogenesis of the insulin-resistant brain state (IRBS) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Gastrointestinal hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is being explored as a potential therapy as activation of brain GLP-1 receptors (GLP-1R) exerts neuroprotection and controls peripheral metabolism. Intracerebroventricular administration of streptozotocin (STZ-icv) is used to model IRBS and GLP-1 dyshomeostasis seems to be involved in the development of neuropathological changes. The aim was to explore (i) gastrointestinal homeostasis in the STZ-icv model (ii) assess whether the brain GLP-1 is involved in the regulation of gastrointestinal redox homeostasis and (iii) analyze whether brain-gut GLP-1 axis is functional in the STZ-icv animals. Acute intracerebroventricular treatment with exendin-3(9-39)amide was used for pharmacological inhibition of brain GLP-1R in the control and STZ-icv rats, and oxidative stress was assessed in plasma, duodenum and ileum. Acute inhibition of brain GLP-1R increased plasma oxidative stress. TBARS were increased, and low molecular weight thiols (LMWT), protein sulfhydryls (SH), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were decreased in the duodenum, but not in the ileum of the controls. In the STZ-icv, TBARS and CAT were increased, LMWT and SH were decreased at baseline, and no further increment of oxidative stress was observed upon central GLP-1R inhibition. The presented results indicate that (i) oxidative stress is increased in the duodenum of the STZ-icv rat model of AD, (ii) brain GLP-1R signaling is involved in systemic redox regulation, (iii) brain-gut GLP-1 axis regulates duodenal, but not ileal redox homeostasis, and iv) brain-gut GLP-1 axis is dysfunctional in the STZ-icv model.
