Abstrakt: | Diabetes is a worldwide epidemic that is increasing rapidly to become the seventh leading cause of death in the world. The increased incidence of this disease mirrors a similar uptick in obesity and metabolic syndrome, and, collectively, these conditions can cause deleterious effects on a number of organ systems including the renal and cardiovascular systems. Historically, treatment of type 2 diabetes has focused on decreasing hyperglycemia and glycated hemoglobin levels. However, it now is appreciated that there is more to the puzzle. Emerging evidence has indicated that newer classes of diabetes drugs, sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide 1-receptor agonists, improve cardiovascular and renal function, while appropriately managing hyperglycemia. In this review, we highlight the recent clinical and preclinical studies that have shed light on sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide 1-receptor agonists and their ability to stabilize blood glucose levels while offering whole-body protection in diabetic and nondiabetic patient populations.
