The dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, linagliptin, improves cognitive impairment in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice by inhibiting oxidative stress and microglial activation

Abstract: ObjectiveAccumulating epidemiological studies have demonstrated that diabetes is an important risk factor for dementia. However, the underlying pathological and molecular mechanisms, and effective treatment, have not been fully elucidated. Herein, we investigated the effect of the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, linagliptin, on diabetes-related cognitive impairment. MethodStreptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice were treated with linagliptin (3 mg/kg/24 h) for 17 weeks. The radial arm water maze te… Show more

“…This finding of our study is consistent with the previous study of Alam et al highlighting the ability of Sitagliptin to prevent heart and kidney inflammation and fibrosis in 2K1C rats by amelioration of MDA, nitric oxide, and advanced protein oxidation product concentrations (Alam, Chowdhury, Jain, Sagor, & Reza, 2015). Then again, Ide et al concluded that Linagliptin reduced MDA levels in Streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice (Ide et al, 2020).…”

“…Further, daily administration of linagliptin reduced the mean blood glucose levels in the T2DM mice in a dosedependent manner, but not significantly. The results of the weak hypoglycemic effect of linagliptin on T2DM mice are consistent with those reported previously in non-diabetic mice (30), streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice (31,32), and T2DM mice (33,34). Importantly, the administration of linagliptin significantly increased serum active GLP-1 concentration in mice without exerting a clear hypoglycemic effect (30,32).…”

“…For example, the DPP4 inhibitor linagliptin has displayed a beneficial effect on diabetes-related dementia in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice models by inhibiting oxidative stress and microglial activation . Interestingly, another DPP4 inhibitor, Sitagliptin, possesses a neuroprotective property against chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CHP) in mice by reducing white matter lesions, microglia activation, and the astrocytosis of white matter. An important limitation of the current study is that it is still unknown whether Trelagliptin has some direct mechanism of action on these immune cells. Our future study will provide further evidence of the biological function of DPP4 and Trelagliptin in immune cell biology in the brain and the pathophysiology of stroke.…”
