SGLT2 and DPP4 inhibitors improve Alzheimer's disease-like pathology and cognitive function through distinct mechanisms in a T2D-AD mouse model
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Oct 20;168:115755. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115755. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlzheimer's disease (AD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) share common features, including insulin resistance. Brain insulin resistance has been implicated as a key factor in the pathogenesis of AD. Recent studies have demonstrated that anti-diabetic drugs sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2-i) and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4-i) improve insulin sensitivity and provide neuroprotection. However, the effects of these two inhibitors on the brain metabolism and insulin resistance remain uninvest...

Differential effect of gastric bypass versus sleeve gastrectomy on insulinotropic action of endogenous incretins
CONCLUSIONS: After GB, increasing incretin activity augments prandial β-cell response whereas the β-cell sensitivity to increasing plasma concentrations of endogenous incretin is diminished.PMID:37853989 | DOI:10.1002/oby.23872 (Source: Obesity)
