RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This work is aimed to Formulate, Optimize and Evaluate Gastro-Retentive Microspheres of Antidiabetic Agent by Full Factorial Design. METHODS: Microspheres were prepared using Emulsification-cross linking technique. To this HPMC-K4M and Carbopol was dissolved in 250 ml of water and allowed to swell for 24 hr at room temperature. And separately chitosan was dissolved in 3% (v/v) glacial acetic acid and this also kept for 24 h to swell or dissolve properly. After 24hr this swelled mixture was mixed under magnetic stirrer (Remi, India) at specific stirring rate for 1hr in order to find homogeneous mass of both the gum. Then slurry of chitosan also was homogenized for half an hour. The drug, Glipizide (1g) was then added to the chitosan solution and mixed homogenesously. RESULTS: The aim of the study was to formulate and evaluate microspheres, for Gastro-Retentive Microspheres of the chosen drug. The EE of microspheres was found to be 91.52%, maximum . Buoyancy property observed was 93.82% for Optimized formulation F-9, Drug release 57.34% till 8 h. The work also aims to study various parameters affecting the behaviour of microspheres in oral dosage form. CONCLUSION: Drugs with short half-life that are absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) are eliminated rapidly from the blood flow. To avoid this, the oral SR Gastro-retentive was developed as this formulation released the drug slowly into the GIT and maintained a stable drug concentration in the serum for a longer duration of time.

DNA, vital for biological processes, encodes hereditary data for protein synthesis, shaping cell structure and function. Since revealing its structure, DNA has become a target for various therapeutically vital molecules, spanning antidiabetic to anticancer drugs. These agents engage with DNA-associated proteins, DNA-RNA hybrids, or bind directly to the DNA helix, triggering diverse downstream effects. These interactions disrupt vital enzymes and proteins essential for maintaining cell structure and function. Analysing drug-DNA interactions has significantly advanced our understanding of drug mechanisms. Glipizide, an antidiabetic drug, is known to cause DNA damage in adipocytes. However, its extract mechanism of DNA interaction is unknown. This study delves into the interaction between glipizide and DNA utilizing various biophysical tools and computational technique to gain insights into the interaction mechanism. Analysis of UV-visible and fluorescence data reveals the formation of complex between DNA and glipizide. The binding affinity of glipizide to DNA was of moderate strength. Examination of thermodynamic parameters at different temperatures suggests that the binding was entropically spontaneous and energetically favourable. Various experiments such as thermal melting assays, viscosity measurement, and dye displacement assays confirmed the minor grove nature of binding of glipizide with DNA. Molecular dynamics studies confirmed the glipizide forms stable complex with DNA when simulated by mimicking the physiological conditions. The binding was mainly favoured by hydrogen bonds and glipizide slightly reduced nucleotide fluctuations of DNA. The study deciphers the mechanism of interaction of glipizide with DNA at molecular levels.

Illicit drug supply adulteration can heighten the risk for adverse health outcomes. Sulfonylurea medications are widely used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus (DM). Unintentional or intentional overdose of sulfonylureas can cause refractory hypoglycemia. This case report describes a 62-year-old male patient who presented to the emergency department (ED) after being found on the ground with signs of mild trauma. He was noted to be persistently hypoglycemic despite boluses of intravenous dextrose, a dextrose infusion, and oral nutrition. The patient did report purchase and oral ingestion of pills sold as oxycodone and that the pill shape and color were different from his usual supply. The patient was empirically treated with octreotide resulting in normalization of his serum glucose. Testing demonstrated a serum glipizide concentration six times the reporting range. This case represents unintentional sulfonylurea exposure in the setting of non-prescribed oxycodone use, resulting in hypoglycemia refractory to intravenous dextrose and oral nutrition. Octreotide is an additional potential treatment for this condition. As in this case, ingestion of street drugs may present a potential source of sulfonylurea exposure. Opioid contamination with sulfonylureas has not been widely reported in the literature and knowledge about this potential exposure is important for the prompt recognition and treatment of these patients by emergency physicians.

Glipizide is an oral glucose-lowering medication that is beneficial for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. This study compiles exhaustively all accessible information on glipizide, from preclinical to clinical studies. Glipizide may be used in concert with TRAIL to treat cancer cells; in vitro studies have shown that it suppresses angiogenesis and vasculogenesis while shielding cells from glycation-induced damage. Anticonvulsant effects and modifications in the pharmacokinetics of other medications, such as Divalproex Sodium, were seen in glipizide in vivo experiments. Propranolol amplifies glipizide's hypoglycemic effect briefly in normal animals but consistently enhances it in diabetic ones. In the treatment of cancer and neurodegenerative poly(Q) illnesses, glipizide has demonstrated to offer potential therapeutic advantages. It is ineffective in preventing DENA-induced liver cancer and may cause DNA damage over time. The way glipizide interacts with genetic variants may increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Combining Syzygium cumini and ARBE to glipizide may enhance glycemic and lipid control in type 2 diabetes. Individuals with coronary artery disease who take glipizide or glyburide have an increased risk of death. The risk of muscular responses and acute pancreatitis is minimal when glipizide and dulaglutide are combined. In conclusion, glipizide has shown promising therapeutic efficacy across a variety of disorders.

Glipizide, a poor water-soluble drug belongs to BCS class II. The proposed work aimed to enhance the solubility of glipizide by preparing solid dispersions, using polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and polyethylene glycol (PEG). Solvent evaporation method was used for the preparation of glipizide solid dispersions. Solid dispersions were prepared in four different drug-to-polymer ratios i.e. 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4. Mainly effect of three polymers (PVP K30, PVP K90 and PEG 6000) was evaluated on the solubility and dissolution of glipizide. The in-vitro dissolution of all prepared formulations was performed under pH 6.8 at 37°C using USP type II apparatus. In-vitro dissolution results revealed that the formulations having high concentrations of the polymer showed enhanced solubility. Enhancements in the solubility and rate of dissolution of the drug were noted in solid dispersion formulations compared to the physical blends and pure drug. Solid dispersions containing polyvinyl pyrrolidone exhibited a more favorable pattern of drug release compared to the corresponding solid dispersions with PEG. An increase in the maximum solubility of the drug within the solid dispersion systems was observed in all instances. Two solid dispersion formulations were optimized and formulated into immediate-release tablets, which passed all the pharmacopoeial and non-pharmacopoeial tests. Fourier transformed Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to indicate drug: polymer interactions in solid state. Analysis of the solid dispersion samples through characterization tests indicated the compatibility between the drug and the polymer.

The anti-diabetic glipizide (GLN) drug has notable pharmaceutical advantages, but poor aqueous solubility restricts its wide applications. The present work was to develop a mixed polymeric micelle system composed of SA-F127 and TPGS to improve the water solubility and effective delivery of the GLN. First, we synthesized SA-F127 and confirmed it through FTIR, NMR, and GPC techniques. The GLN-PMM were fabricated with the thin-film technique and optimized with CCD design. The developed GLN-PMM was characterized using DLS, Zeta, TEM, Rheology, FTIR, DSC, and XRD measurements. The GLN-PMM manifested a spherical morphology with 67.86 nm particle size, a -3.85 mV zeta potential, and a 0.582±0.06 PDI value. The polymeric mixed micelles showed excellent compatibility with GLN and were amorphous in nature. NMR studies confirmed the encapsulation of GLN in the core of the mixed micelle. In addition, the GLN-PMM micelles were tested in vitro for cumulative drug release, ex vivo for permeation, and in vivo for anti-diabetic investigations. The GLN-PMM release profile in the various pH environments showed over 90% after 24 h, clearly indicating sustained release. The GLN-PMM micelles gave higher 88.86±3.39% GLN permeation from the goat intestine compared with free GLN. In-vivo anti-diabetic investigation proves the powerful anti-diabetic properties of GLN-PMM in comparison to the marketed formulation. These findings demonstrated that the polymeric mixed micelles of SA-F127 and TPGS could be a promising, effective, and environment-friendly approach for oral delivery of the GLN.

New consensus indicates type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and periodontitis as comorbidity and may share common pathways of disease progression. Sulfonylureas have been reported to improve the periodontal status in periodontitis patients. Glipizide, a sulfonylurea widely used in the treatment of T2DM, has also been reported to inhibit inflammation and angiogenesis. The effect of glipizide on the pathogenicity of periodontitis, however, has not been studied. We developed ligature-induced periodontitis in mice and treated them with different concentrations of glipizide and then analyzed the level of periodontal tissue inflammation, alveolar bone resorption, and osteoclast differentiation. Inflammatory cell infiltration and angiogenesis were analyzed using immunohistochemistry, RT-qPCR, and ELISA. Transwell assay and Western bolt analyzed macrophage migration and polarization. 16S rRNA sequencing analyzed the effect of glipizide on the oral microbial flora. mRNA sequencing of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) stimulated by P. gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (Pg-LPS) after treatment with glipizide was analyzed. Glipizide decreases alveolar bone resorption, periodontal tissue degradation, and the number of osteoclasts in periodontal tissue affected by periodontitis (PAPT). Glipizide-treated periodontitis mice showed reduced micro-vessel density and leukocyte/macrophage infiltration in PAPT. Glipizide significantly inhibited osteoclast differentiation in vitro experiments. Glipizide treatment did not affect the oral microbiome of periodontitis mice. mRNA sequencing and KEGG analysis showed that glipizide activated PI3K/AKT signaling in LPS-stimulated BMMs. Glipizide inhibited the LPS-induced migration of BMMs but promoted M2/M1 macrophage ratio in LPS-induced BMMs via activation of PI3K/AKT signaling. In conclusion, glipizide inhibits angiogenesis, macrophage inflammatory phenotype, and osteoclastogenesis to alleviate periodontitis pathogenicity suggesting its' possible application in the treatment of periodontitis and diabetes comorbidity.

Objective: We aimed to investigate the effect of Cyclocarya paliurus leaves extracts (CP) on glucose and blood lipid metabolism and its relationship with intestinal flora in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. Methods: In this open-label, 84-day randomized controlled trial, a total of 38 T2DM patients were randomly assigned to the CP group or the Glipizide group (G group) in a 2:1 ratio. T2DM-associated metabolic phenotypes, gut microbiota and metabolites including short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and bile acids (BAs) were detected. Results: At the end of intervention, CP, like Glipizide, significantly improved HbA1c level and other glucose metabolism parameters (fasting plasma glucose (FBG), 2-hour post-meal blood glucose (2hPBG), the area under curve of oral glucose tolerance test glucose (OGTT glucose AUC)). Moreover, CP also resulted in the significant improvement in the levels of blood lipid and blood pressure. Notably, the improvement in blood lipid(triglycerides (TG) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c)) and blood pressure (diastolic blood pressure (DBP)) was significantly greater in the CP group compared with the G group. Furthermore, the liver and kidney function parameters did not significantly change in both CP group and the G group over the 84-day period. Additionally, the enrichment of potentially beneficial bacteria (Faecalibacterium and Akkermansia), SCFAs and unconjugated BAs and the depletion of potential pathogenic bacteria (Prevotella_9) and conjugated BAs were observed in the CP group, while the abundances of the gut microbial were kept stable in the G group after intervention. Conclusion: CP displays a more beneficial effect in the alleviation of T2DM-associated metabolic phenotypes than glipizide by regulating gut microbiota and metabolites in T2DM patients, with no significant effects on liver and kidney function.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Characterisation of genetic variation that influences the response to glucose-lowering medications is instrumental to precision medicine for treatment of type 2 diabetes. The Study to Understand the Genetics of the Acute Response to Metformin and Glipizide in Humans (SUGAR-MGH) examined the acute response to metformin and glipizide in order to identify new pharmacogenetic associations for the response to common glucose-lowering medications in individuals at risk of type 2 diabetes. METHODS: One thousand participants at risk for type 2 diabetes from diverse ancestries underwent sequential glipizide and metformin challenges. A genome-wide association study was performed using the Illumina Multi-Ethnic Genotyping Array. Imputation was performed with the TOPMed reference panel. Multiple linear regression using an additive model tested for association between genetic variants and primary endpoints of drug response. In a more focused analysis, we evaluated the influence of 804 unique type 2 diabetes- and glycaemic trait-associated variants on SUGAR-MGH outcomes and performed colocalisation analyses to identify shared genetic signals. RESULTS: Five genome-wide significant variants were associated with metformin or glipizide response. The strongest association was between an African ancestry-specific variant (minor allele frequency [MAFAfr]=0.0283) at rs149403252 and lower fasting glucose at Visit 2 following metformin (p=1.9×10-9); carriers were found to have a 0.94 mmol/l larger decrease in fasting glucose. rs111770298, another African ancestry-specific variant (MAFAfr=0.0536), was associated with a reduced response to metformin (p=2.4×10-8), where carriers had a 0.29 mmol/l increase in fasting glucose compared with non-carriers, who experienced a 0.15 mmol/l decrease. This finding was validated in the Diabetes Prevention Program, where rs111770298 was associated with a worse glycaemic response to metformin: heterozygous carriers had an increase in HbA1c of 0.08% and non-carriers had an HbA1c increase of 0.01% after 1 year of treatment (p=3.3×10-3). We also identified associations between type 2 diabetes-associated variants and glycaemic response, including the type 2 diabetes-protective C allele of rs703972 near ZMIZ1 and increased levels of active glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) (p=1.6×10-5), supporting the role of alterations in incretin levels in type 2 diabetes pathophysiology. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: We present a well-phenotyped, densely genotyped, multi-ancestry resource to study gene-drug interactions, uncover novel variation associated with response to common glucose-lowering medications and provide insight into mechanisms of action of type 2 diabetes-related variation. DATA AVAILABILITY: The complete summary statistics from this study are available at the Common Metabolic Diseases Knowledge Portal ( https://hugeamp.org ) and the GWAS Catalog ( www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/ , accession IDs: GCST90269867 to GCST90269899).

Metformin and its combinations are widely used to treat type 2 diabetes. The drugs commonly used in combination with Metformin are Glipizide, Glibenclamide, Gliclazide, Evogliptin, and Glimepiride. Combination therapy is preferred over monotherapy of Metformin in most diabetics. About eighteen pharmaceutical manufacturers have lately recalled metformin formulation batches from the U.S. market due to N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) impurities based on the food and drug administration (USFDA) guideline "Control of Nitrosamine in Human Drugs." European Medicines Agency (EMA) and Health Canada have also established guidelines for nitrosamine impurities. Nitrosamines are well-known mutagenic impurities and probable human carcinogens found in pharmaceutical formulations. Thus, global regulatory agencies require pharmaceutical and formulation manufacturers to complete risk assessments for nitrosamine impurities for patient safety. Therefore, drug manufacturers must develop analytical techniques for monitoring trace nitrosamine impurities. Quantifying nitrosamine impurities in formulations requires modern equipment like LC-MS/MS and great intellect. The present study intends to give a single pre-packaged LC-MS/MS method parameters, including liquid chromatography and triple quadrupole mass spectrometer configuration. This method could quantify eight nitrosamine impurities from five different Metformin combinations (Metformin with Glipizide, Glibenclamide, Gliclazide, Evogliptin, and Glimepiride). The atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation (APCI) was used as an ionisation source, and the mass spectrometer was set to multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode for all eight nitrosamine impurities. A unified pre-packaged analytical setup allows analytical chemists to develop a reliable, sensitive, robust, and precise method for quantifying eight nitrosamine impurities from five different Metformin formulations of varying manufacturers. This analytical method saves time, money, and the environment using fewer pharmaceutical chemicals.

Increasing reports suggest insulin signalling pathway as a putative drug target against polyglutamine [poly(Q)] disorders, such as Huntington's disease (HD), Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) 1, 2, 3 etc. However, studies on drug-based stimulation of insulin signalling cascade to mitigate poly(Q) pathogenesis are lacking. In our study, we adopted an evidence-based approach to examine if some established insulin stimulating drug can be utilized to restrict poly(Q) aetiology in Drosophila disease models. For the first time, we report that glipizide, an FDA approved anti-diabetic drug upregulates insulin signalling in poly(Q) expressing tissues and restricts formation of inclusion bodies and neurodegeneration. Moreover, it reinstates the chromatin architecture by improving histone acetylation, which is otherwise abrogated due to poly(Q) toxicity. In view of the functional conservation of insulin signalling pathway in Drosophila and humans, our finding strongly suggests that glipizide can be repurposed as an effective treatment strategy against the neurodegenerative poly(Q) disorders. Also, with appropriate validation studies in mammalian disease models, glipizide could be subsequently considered for the clinical trials in human patients.

BACKGROUND: The comparative safety of sulfonylureas (SUs) in nursing home (NH) residents remains understudied despite widespread use. We compared the effects of three SU medications and initial SU doses on adverse glycemic and cardiovascular events among NH residents. METHODS: This national retrospective cohort study linked Medicare claims with Minimum Data Set 2.0 assessments for long-stay NH residents aged ≥65 years between January 2008 and September 2010. Exposures were the SU medication initiated (glimepiride, glipizide, or glyburide) and doses (standard or reduced). One-year outcomes were hospitalizations or emergency department visits for severe hypoglycemia, heart failure (HF), stroke, and acute myocardial infarction (AMI). After the inverse probability of treatment and inverse probability of censoring by death weighting, we estimated hazard ratios (HR) using Cox regression models with robust 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: The cohort (N = 6821) included 3698 new glipizide, 1754 glimepiride, and 1369 glyburide users. Overall, the mean (standard deviation) age was 81.4 (8.2) years, 4816 (70.6%) were female, and 5164 (75.7%) were White non-Hispanic residents. The rates of severe hypoglycemia were 30.3 (95% CI 22.3-40.1), 49.0 (95% CI 34.5-67.5), and 35.9 (95% CI 22.2-54.9) events per 1000 person-years among new glipizide, glimepiride, and glyburide users, respectively (glimepiride versus glipizide HR 1.6, 95% CI 1.0-2.4, p = 0.04; glyburide versus glipizide HR 1.2, 95% CI 0.7-1.9, p = 0.59). The rates of severe hypoglycemia were 27.1 (95% CI 18.6-38.0) and 42.8 (95% CI 33.6-53.8) events per 1000 person-years among new users of reduced and standard SU doses, respectively (HR 2.2, 95% CI 1.4-3.5, p < 0.01). Rates of HF, stroke, and AMI were similar between medications and doses. CONCLUSIONS: Among long-stay NH residents, new use of glimepiride and standard SU doses resulted in higher rates of severe hypoglycemic events. Cardiovascular outcomes may not be affected by the choice of SU medication or dose.

The objective of this study was to explore an innovative sustained release technology and design a new microporous resin-based polymer device (RPD) for controlled release of glipizide (GZ). Photocurable resin was applied to prepare the resin layer to control GZ release. The impact of formulation parameters consisting of the type and amount of pore formers and pH modifiers, photocurable curing time as well as the weight of resin layer on GZ release were examined. The GZ-RPD was fabricated applying 24 mg of resin layer with PEG400 (100 % of the resin weight) as pore former and 10 mg of Na2CO3 as pH modifier. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) demonstrated resin particles presenting a porous structure constituted the resin layer. The GZ-RPD possessed prolonged Tmax and reduced Cmax relative to commercial tablets. The relative bioavailability of the RPDs as well as commercial tablets was 93.65 % since the AUC0-24 h were 6111.05 ± 238.89 ng·h/mL and 6525.09 ± 760.59 ng h/mL, respectively. The release mechanism of the GZ-RPD was discussed. This paper provided an innovative concept to produce controlled GZ release oral formulation fabricated by photocurable resin, which demonstrated both excellent in vitro release and in vivo pharmacokinetics.

Co-administered medicinal herbs can modify a drug's pharmacokinetics (PK), effectiveness, and toxicity. Andrographis paniculata (Burm. f.) ethanolic extract (APE) and andrographolide (AND) (a potent CYP2C9 inducer/inhibitor) can alter the pharmacokinetic parameters of glipizide (GLZ). This study aimed to determine the potential pharmacokinetics of herb−drug interactions between GLZ and APE/AND in the plasma of normal and diabetic rats using the HPLC bioanalysis method. The glipizide bioanalytical method established with RP-HPLC/UV instrument was validated following the EMA guidelines. GLZ was administered alone and in combination with APE or AND to normal and diabetic rats. The GLZ pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated according to the correlation between concentration and sampling time using the PK solver program. A simple and rapid GLZ bioanalysis technique with a lower limit of quantitation of 25 ng/mL was developed and presented the following parameters: accuracy (error ≤ 15%), precision (CV ≤ 15%), selectivity, stability, and linearity (R2 = 0.998) at concentrations ranging 25−1500 ng/mL. APE administration significantly improved the Cmax and AUC0−t/AUC0−∞ GLZ values in normal and diabetic rats (p < 0.05). AND significantly reduced the bioavailability of GLZ in diabetic rats with small values of T 1/2, Cmax, and AUC0−t/AUC0−∞ (p < 0.05). This combination can be considered in administering medications because it can influence the pharmacological effects of GLZ.

BACKGROUND: Safety of sulfonylurea drugs in the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes is still under debate. The aim of this study was to compare the all-cause mortality and cardiovascular adverse events of sulfonylureas and drugs with a low risk for hypoglycaemia in adults with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE (PubMed, OVID), Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CINAHL, WOS and Lilacs. STUDY SELECTION: Randomised controlled head-to-head trials that compared sulfonylureas with active control with low hypoglycaemic potential in adults (≥ 18 years old) with type 2 diabetes published up to August 2015. The drug classes involved in the analysis were metformin, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. OUTCOMES: The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. The secondary endpoints were MACE, cardiovascular events and severe hypoglycaemia. SYNTHESIS OF RESULTS: Two reviewers checked study eligibility, independently extracted data and assessed quality with disagreements resolved through discussion. We assessed the risk of bias of the included studies using the Cochrane risk of bias tool for randomized trials v2. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) were estimated by using fixed effects model. The study is registered on PROSPERO (26/05/2016 CRD42016038780). RESULTS: Our final analysis comprised 31 studies (26,204 patients, 11,711 patients given sulfonylureas and 14,493 given comparator drugs). In comparison to drugs with low hypoglycaemic potential, sulfonylureas had higher odds for all-cause mortality (OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.00-1.75), MACE (OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.07-1.61), myocardial infarction (fatal and non-fatal) (OR 1.67, 95% CI 1.17-2.38) and hypoglycaemia (OR 5.24, 95% CI 4.20-6.55). Subsequent sensitivity analysis revealed differences in the effect of sulfonylureas, with an increased risk of all-cause mortality with glipizide but not the other molecules. CONCLUSION: Our meta-analysis raises concern about the safety of SUs compared to alternative drugs involved in current analysis. Important differences may exist within the drug class, and glimepiride seems to have best safety profile.

In the current study, a novel interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) hydrogel bead was developed by encapsulation of antidiabetic drug glipizide using sodium alginate (SAL) and xanthan gum (XAG) biopolymers by ionotropic gelation technique with calcium chloride as cross-linking agent. In light of the fact that IPN hydrogel beads possess greater benefits in controlling the release of such short acting drug, sodium alginate and xanthan gum IPN hydrogel beads were prepared at different mass ratios (SAL:XAG = 10:0, 9:1, 8:2, 7:3, 6:4, 5:5). Similarly, drug-loaded IPN hydrogel beads were also developed. The prepared hydrogel beads were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, and thermogravimetric studies to understand the type of interactions between the composite beads. Surface morphology changes were studied by scanning electron microscopy. The particle size, drug entrapment efficiency, and swelling behavior of prepared hydrogel beads were also studied. Based on in vitro drug dissolution studies, it was observed that SXF4 preparation containing SAL and XAG polymers at 7:3 ratio showed extended drug release of 97.53% at 9 h. This study demonstrated that inclusion of XAG has extended the drug release and able to achieve zero-order drug release profile.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The use of oral glucose-lowering drugs, particularly those designed to target the gut ecosystem, is often observed in association with altered gut microbial composition or functional capacity in individuals with type 2 diabetes. The gut microbiota, in turn, plays crucial roles in the modulation of drug efficacy. We aimed to assess the impacts of acarbose and vildagliptin on human gut microbiota and the relationships between pre-treatment gut microbiota and therapeutic responses. METHODS: This was a randomised, open-labelled, two-arm trial in treatment-naive type 2 diabetes patients conducted in Beijing between December 2016 and December 2017. One hundred participants with overweight/obesity and newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes were recruited from the Pinggu Hospital and randomly assigned to the acarbose (n=50) or vildagliptin (n=50) group using sealed envelopes. The treatment period was 6 months. Blood, faecal samples and visceral fat data from computed tomography images were collected before and after treatments to measure therapeutic outcomes and gut microbiota. Metagenomic datasets from a previous type 2 diabetes cohort receiving acarbose or glipizide for 3 months were downloaded and processed. Statistical analyses were applied to identify the treatment-related changes in clinical variables, gut microbiota and associations. RESULTS: Ninety-two participants were analysed. After 6 months of acarbose (n=44) or vildagliptin (n=48) monotherapy, both groups achieved significant reductions in HbA1c (from 60 to 46 mmol/mol [from 7.65% to 6.40%] in the acarbose group and from 59 to 44 mmol/mol [from 7.55% to 6.20%] in the vildagliptin group) and visceral fat areas (all adjusted p values for pre-post comparisons <0.05). Both arms showed drug-specific and shared changes in relative abundances of multiple gut microbial species and pathways, especially the common reductions in Bacteroidetes species. Three months and 6 months of acarbose-induced changes in microbial composition were highly similar in type 2 diabetes patients from the two independent studies. Vildagliptin treatment significantly enhanced fasting active glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) levels. Baseline gut microbiota, rather than baseline GLP-1 levels, were strongly associated with GLP-1 response to vildagliptin, and to a lesser extent with GLP-1 response to acarbose. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: This study reveals common microbial responses in type 2 diabetes patients treated with two glucose-lowering drugs targeting the gut differently and acceptable performance of baseline gut microbiota in classifying individuals with different GLP-1 responses to vildagliptin. Our findings highlight bidirectional interactions between gut microbiota and glucose-lowering drugs.

CONTEXT: Polymorphisms in the gene encoding the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) are associated with type 2 diabetes but their effects on incretin levels remain unclear. OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the physiologic and hormonal effects of GLP1R genotypes before and after interventions that influence glucose physiology. DESIGN: Pharmacogenetic study conducted at 3 academic centers in Boston, Massachusetts. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 868 antidiabetic drug-naïve participants with type 2 diabetes or at risk for developing diabetes. INTERVENTIONS: We analyzed 5 variants within GLP1R (rs761387, rs10305423, rs10305441, rs742762, and rs10305492) and recorded biochemical data during a 5-mg glipizide challenge and a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) following 4 doses of metformin 500 mg over 2 days. MAIN OUTCOMES: We used an additive mixed-effects model to evaluate the association of these variants with glucose, insulin, and incretin levels over multiple timepoints during the OGTT. RESULTS: During the OGTT, the G-risk allele at rs761387 was associated with higher total GLP-1 (2.61 pmol/L; 95% CI, 1.0.72-4.50), active GLP-1 (2.61 pmol/L; 95% CI, 0.04-5.18), and a trend toward higher glucose (3.63; 95% CI, -0.16 to 7.42 mg/dL) per allele but was not associated with insulin. During the glipizide challenge, the G allele was associated with higher insulin levels per allele (2.01 IU/mL; 95% CI, 0.26-3.76). The other variants were not associated with any of the outcomes tested. CONCLUSIONS: GLP1R variation is associated with differences in GLP-1 levels following an OGTT load despite no differences in insulin levels, highlighting altered incretin signaling as a potential mechanism by which GLP1R variation affects T2D risk.

Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is increased acutely by carbohydrate ingestion and is elevated in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the physiological significance of increased FGF21 in humans remains largely unknown. We examined whether FGF21 contributed to the metabolic improvements observed following treatment of patients with T2D with either triple (metformin/pioglitazone/exenatide) or conventional (metformin/insulin/glipizide) therapy for 3 yr. Forty-six patients with T2D were randomized to receive either triple or conventional therapy to maintain HbA1c < 6.5%. A 2-h 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed at baseline and following 3 years of treatment to assess glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, and ß-cell function. Plasma total and bioactive FGF21 levels were quantitated before and during the OGTT at both visits. Patients in both treatment arms experienced significant improvements in glucose control, but insulin sensitivity and ß-cell function were markedly increased after triple therapy. At baseline, FGF21 levels were regulated acutely during the OGTT in both groups. After treatment, fasting total and bioactive FGF21 levels were significantly reduced in patients receiving triple therapy, but there was a relative increase in the proportion of bioactive FGF21 compared with that observed in conventionally treated subjects. Relative to baseline studies, triple therapy treatment also significantly modified FGF21 levels in response to a glucose load. These changes in circulating FGF21 were correlated with markers of improved glucose control and insulin sensitivity. Alterations in the plasma FGF21 profile may contribute to the beneficial metabolic effects of pioglitazone and exenatide in human patients with T2D.NEW & NOTEWORTHY In patients with T2D treated with a combination of metformin/pioglitazone/exenatide (triple therapy), we observed reduced total and bioactive plasma FGF21 levels and a relative increase in the proportion of circulating bioactive FGF21 compared with that in patients treated with metformin and sequential addition of glipizide and basal insulin glargine (conventional therapy). These data suggest that FGF21 may contribute, at least in part, to the glycemic benefits observed following combination therapy in patients with T2D.
