| Popis: | Insulin sensitizers and incretin mimetics are antidiabetic agents with vastly different mechanisms of action. Thiazolidinedione (TZD) insulin sensitizers are associated with weight gain, whereas glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists can induce weight loss. We hypothesized that combination of a TZD insulin sensitizer and the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist liraglutide would more significantly improve mouse models of diabetes and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Diabetic db/db and MS-NASH mice were treated with the TZD MSDC-0602K by oral gavage, liraglutide (Lira) by s.c. injection, or combination 0602K+Lira. Lira slightly reduced body weight and modestly improved glycemia in db/db mice. Comparatively, 0602K-treated and 0602K+Lira-treated mice exhibited slight weight gain but completely corrected glycemia and improved glucose tolerance. 0602K reduced plasma insulin, whereas Lira further increased the hyperinsulinemia of db/db mice. Surprisingly, 0602K+Lira treatment reduced plasma insulin and C-peptide to the same extent as mice treated with 0602K alone. 0602K did not reduce glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in vivo, or in isolated islets, indicating the reduced insulinemia was likely compensatory to improved insulin sensitivity. In MS-NASH mice, both 0602K or Lira alone improved plasma alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, as well as liver histology, but more significant improvements were observed with 0602K+Lira treatment. 0602K or 0602K+Lira also increased pancreatic insulin content in both db/db and MS-NASH mice. In conclusion, MSDC-0602K corrected glycemia and reduced insulinemia when given alone, or in combination with Lira. However, 0602K+Lira combination more significantly improved glucose tolerance and liver histology, suggesting that this combination treatment may be an effective therapeutic strategy for diabetes and NASH. |
