The free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFA1) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor δ (PPARδ) were considered as potential anti-diabetic targets, and the dual FFA1/PPARδ agonists might provide synergistic effect in insulin secretion and sensibility. Herein, we further develop dual agonists by screening 7 series of heterocycles, resulting in the discovery of compound 19 with considerable oral pharmacokinetic profile. Compound 19 exhibited a balanced potency between FFA1 and PPARδ, and high selectivity over PPARα and PPARγ. Moreover, compound 19 exerted improved glucose-lowering effects and insulin sensitivity in a dose-dependent manner, which might be attributed to its dual effects to simultaneously regulate insulin secretion and resistance. Our results extended the existing chemical space, and provided a potent tool compound 19.

Background: Magnolia kobus DC (MO), as a plant medicine, has been reported to have various physiological activities, including neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and anti-diabetic effects. However, vascular protective effects of MO remain incompletely understood. In this study, we evaluated the vascular protective effect of MO against ferroptosis in a carotid artery ligation (CAL)-induced neointimal hyperplasia mouse model and in aortic thoracic smooth muscle A7r5 cells.

Unlabelled: Despite the fact that canagliflozin (Cana), a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor, is an anti-diabetic medication with additional effects on the kidney, there is limited experimental data to deliberate its hepato-reno-protective potentiality. Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose remains one of the prominent contributors to hepato-renal damage.
Aim: Our study assessed the novel effect of Cana against APAP-induced toxicities.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) and neuroendocrine tumors (NET) can exert unfavorable effects on each other prognosis. In this narrative review, we evaluated the effects of NET therapies on glycemic control and DM management and the effects of anti-diabetic therapies on NET outcome and management. For this purpose, we searched the PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar databases for studies reporting the effects of NET therapy on DM as well as the effect of DM therapy on NET.
