Effects of antidiabetic drugs in high-fat diet and streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced type 2 diabetic mice.

Based on previously established methods, we developed an easily available type 2 diabetic mouse model that exhibits obesity and insulin resistance. We investigated the effects of several antidiabetic drugs on this new model, which was induced by a high-fat diet in combination with streptozotocin and nicotinamide injection. Male ICR mice were fed a high-fat diet (45% of calories as fat) for 3weeks and then intraperitoneally administered with nicotinamide (1000mg/kg) and streptozotocin (150mg/kg).

Antihyperglycemic effects of ASP8497 in streptozotocin-nicotinamide induced diabetic rats: comparison with other dipeptidyl peptidase-IV inhibitors.

(2S,4S)-4-Fluoro-1-({[4-methyl-1-(methylsulfonyl)piperidin-4-yl]amino}acetyl)pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile monofumarate (ASP8497) is a novel dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV inhibitor. In this study, we investigated the antidiabetic potency, mechanism, and duration of action of ASP8497 both in vitro and in vivo, and compared it with the DPP-IV inhibitors vildagliptin, sitagliptin, and saxagliptin. ASP8497 inhibited rat plasma DPP-IV activity in vitro with an IC(50) value of 2.

Effects of the dipeptidyl peptidase-IV inhibitor ASP8497 on glucose tolerance in animal models of secondary failure.

Unlabelled: Sulfonylureas promote insulin secretion and potently lower blood glucose levels, however, they induce hypoglycemia and undergo a reduction in efficacy when administered long-term (secondary failure). The dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV inhibitor ASP8497, (2S,4S)-4-fluoro-1-({[4-methyl-1-(methylsulfonyl)piperidin-4-yl]amino}acetyl)pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile monofumarate, inhibits the degradation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), an incretin hormone, and promotes insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner. ASP8497 is therefore less likely to induce hypoglycemia and less likely to show reduced efficacy even after repeated administration.

Antidiabetic effects of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV inhibitors and sulfonylureas in streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced mildly diabetic mice.

The present study investigated the antidiabetic effects of the dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV inhibitors ASP8497 and vildagliptin, and the sulfonylureas glibenclamide and gliclazide in streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced mildly diabetic mice. A single administration of ASP8497 and vildagliptin significantly improved glucose tolerance by increasing plasma insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 levels. In addition, a single administration of glibenclamide and gliclazide also caused significant improvement in glucose tolerance with an accompanying increase in the plasma insulin level.

Evaluation of the antidiabetic effects of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV inhibitor ASP8497 in streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced mildly diabetic mice.

Gastrointestinal hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) has a potent glucose-dependent insulinotropic effect and is rapidly degraded by dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV. Therefore, the use of DPP-IV inhibitors is being actively explored as a novel approach to the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The present study investigated the antidiabetic effects of the DPP-IV inhibitor ASP8497 in streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced mildly diabetic mice which possess aggravation of glucose tolerance due to loss of early-phase insulin secretion.

Effects of the combination of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV inhibitor ASP8497 and antidiabetic drugs in streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced mildly diabetic mice.

Several combination therapies have been investigated in an effort to achieve and maintain glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. In this study, we combined the novel dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV inhibitor ASP8497 with the antidiabetic drugs metformin, glibenclamide, voglibose, rosiglitazone, and insulin to examine the effects of each combination on glucose tolerance in streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced mildly diabetic mice. Single treatments with ASP8497 (1 mg/kg), metformin (300 mg/kg), glibenclamide (3 mg/kg), voglibose (0.

Hypoglycaemic effects of antidiabetic drugs in streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced mildly diabetic and streptozotocin-induced severely diabetic rats.

In this study, streptozotocin-induced severely diabetic rats and streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced mildly diabetic rats were established to compare their characteristics and to investigate the hypoglycaemic effects of antidiabetic drugs. Results show that in streptozotocin-induced severely diabetic rats, the pancreatic insulin content decreased to approximately 10% of that in normal rats. These severely diabetic rats also exhibited marked hyperglycaemia and impaired glucose tolerance due to insulin secretory deficiency.

Chronic inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV with ASP8497 improved the HbA(1c) level, glucose intolerance, and lipid parameter level in streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced diabetic mice.

Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) is the primary inactivator of glucoregulatory incretin hormones, and DPP-IV inhibitors are expected to become a useful new class of anti-diabetic agent. The aim of the present study is to characterize the chronic in vivo profile of the DPP-IV inhibitor ASP8497. In streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced diabetic mice, ASP8497 was administered orally for 3 weeks at 1, 3, or 10 mg/kg once daily, which improved the hemoglobin A(1c), non-fasting plasma insulin, fasting blood glucose levels, glucose intolerance, and lipid profiles (plasma triglyceride, non-esterified fatty acid and total cholesterol) with neutral effect on body weight.

ASP8497 is a novel selective and competitive dipeptidyl peptidase-IV inhibitor with antihyperglycemic activity.

Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV inhibitors are expected to become a useful new class of antidiabetic agent. The aim of the present study is to characterize the in vitro and in vivo profile of ASP8497, (2S,4S)-4-fluoro-1-({[4-methyl-1-(methylsulfonyl)piperidin-4-yl]amino}acetyl)pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile monofumarate, which is a novel DPP-IV inhibitor. ASP8497 inhibited DPP-IV in plasma from mice, rats, dogs and humans with IC(50) values of 3.

Pharmacological profile of ASP8497, a novel, selective, and competitive dipeptidyl peptidase-IV inhibitor, in vitro and in vivo.

Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV is involved in the inactivation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a potent insulinotropic peptide. Thus, DPP-IV inhibitors are expected to become a useful new class of antidiabetic agent. This report describes the pharmacological profile of the novel DPP-IV inhibitor, ASP8497 [(2S,4S)-4-fluoro-1-({[4-methyl-1-(methylsulfonyl)piperidin-4-yl]amino}acetyl)pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile monofumarate], both in vitro and in vivo.
