Sodium-glucose co-transport protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, a novel category of oral hypoglycemic agents, offer a promising outlook for individuals experiencing heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Evidence is emerging that highlights their potential in alleviating myocardial fibrosis and oxidative stress. However, the precise mechanisms through which SGLT2 inhibitors influence myocardial fibrosis induced by angiotensin II (Ang II) or transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) are not fully understood.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease associated with numerous complications, including cardiovascular diseases, nephropathy, and neuropathy. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, a class of novel antidiabetic agents, have demonstrated promising therapeutic effects beyond glycemic control, with potential benefits extending to the cardiovascular and renal systems. Recently, research has increasingly focused on exploring the potential role of SGLT-2 inhibitors in preventing dementia.

Inappropriate aldosterone excess plays a key role in the pathophysiology of various cardiovascular, endocrine and renal diseases. Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists (MRAs) such as spironolactone block of the harmful effects of aldosterone and are recommended treatment in these various conditions. However, the sexual adverse effects of spironolactone due to its lack of specificity for the MR and the risk of hyperkalemia in patients with decreased renal function, limit its use.
