Title: A Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitor, Teneligliptin, Decreases Plasma Triglyceride-Rich Lipoprotein Remnants in Diabetic Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease Undergoing Hemodialysis. Author: Homma K, Yoshizawa J, Shiina Y, Ozawa H, Igarashi M, Matsuoka T, Sasaki J, Yoshizawa M, Homma Y. Journal: Drugs R D; 2017 Sep; 17(3):397-402. PubMed ID: 28577292. Abstract: OBJECTIVE: A high plasma level of remnant-like particle cholesterol (RLP-C), which is equivalent to triglyceride-rich lipoprotein remnant, is an important coronary risk marker. RLP-C level is high, independent of other plasma lipids, in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing hemodialysis. The effect of teneligliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitor, on plasma levels of RLP-C in patients with diabetes mellitus and CKD under hemodialysis was studied. METHODS: Teneligliptin 20 mg/day was administered to 15 patients with diabetes and CKD undergoing hemodialysis for 12 weeks. Ten patients with diabetes and CKD undergoing hemodialysis were allocated to the control group. Blood was sampled following a 12-h fast. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), C-peptide, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol (C), high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-C, RLP-C, apolipoprotein (apo) B, oxidized LDL, lipoprotein lipase, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were measured. RESULTS: HbA1c decreased in the teneligliptin group but significantly increased in the control group. FPG and RLP-C significantly decreased in the teneligliptin group. Plasma lipoprotein-related parameters except RLP-C were not affected by teneligliptin treatment. CONCLUSION: Teneligliptin treatment significantly reduced plasma levels of RLP-C, FPG, and HbA1c in patients with diabetes with CKD who are undergoing hemodialysis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
