Wound regeneration with integral function and cutaneous appendages remains challenging in wound dressing applications. Cellulose nanofibers (CNF) exhibit remarkable characteristics in wound dressing applications; however, their utility in the wound healing process is limited by insufficient scar inhibition and regenerative healing. Herein, inspired by fibroblast heterogeneity mediating wound healing and skin regeneration, we developed a CNF scaffold designed to block Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 positive (DPP4) fibroblasts for regenerative healing.

In patients with abdominal or pelvic tumors, radiotherapy can result in radiation-induced intestinal injury (RIII), a potentially severe complication for which there are few effective therapeutic options. Sitagliptin (SI) is an oral hypoglycemic drug that exhibits antiapoptotic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activity, but how it influences RIII-associated outcomes has yet to be established. In this study, a pH-responsive metal-organic framework-based nanoparticle platform was developed for the delivery of SI (SI@ZIF-8@MS NP).

Intrahepatic cholestasis is a common clinical form of hepatobiliary injury characterized by the intrahepatic accumulation of toxic bile acids. Besides its antidiabetic activity, the dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitor sitagliptin (SG) has been recently assigned diverse pharmacological activities and therapeutic potential against different disorders owing to its emerging antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The current study explored the potential hepatoprotective effect of SG on α-naphthyl isothiocyanate (ANIT)-induced cholestatic liver injury (CLI) in mice and investigate its possible targeted signaling pathways.

High fat diet (HFD) consumption can cause dysregulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, coupled with increased ectopic lipid deposition in renal tissue leading to steatosis and dysfunction. Sitagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor clinically used for type II diabetes therapy; however its effect on renal steatosis in obese state is still uncertain. Herein, obesity was induced by feeding male Wistar rats HFD for 18 weeks, thereafter received either drug vehicle, or sitagliptin (10 mg/kg, PO) along with HFD for further 6 weeks and compared with age-matched rats receiving normal chow diet (NCD).

Objective: To assess the safety of sitagliptin added to metformin on cardiovascular adverse events in real world patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Methods: Real world data from Yinzhou Regional Health Care Database were used to select T2DM patients with diagnosis and treatment records in the platform from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2022. According to drug prescription records, the patients were divided into metformin plus sitagliptin group (combination group) and metformin monotherapy group(monotherapy group).
