Objective: To investigate the modulatory effects of bitter gourd extract on the insulin signaling pathway in the liver and skeletal muscle tissues of diabetic rats. Methods: The ethanolic extract of bitter gourd was prepared and its contents of total polyphenols and flavonoids were assayed. A neonatal streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat model was established and the diabetic rats were assigned into different groups and were treated with different doses of bitter gourd extract (100, 200, 400, or 600 mg/kg) or with glibenclamide (0.1 mg/kg) for 30 d. Fasting blood glucose, insulin, and lipid profile were evaluated and the insulin signaling pathway in the liver and skeletal muscle of rats was investigated. The correlations between homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) and the components of insulin signaling pathway were also evaluated. Results: Different doses of bitter gourd extract significantly ameliorated fasting blood glucose level and HOMA index for insulin resistance. Moreover, bitter gourd extract increased serum insulin and improved disrupted serum lipid profile. The levels of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), p-insulin receptor β (p-IR-β), protein kinase C (PKC), GLUT2, and GLUT4 were improved by treatment with bitter gourd extract. The best results were obtained with 400 mg/kg dose of the extract, the effect of which was equivalent to that of glibenclamide. HOMA in the bitter gourd treated rats was negatively correlated with p-IR-β, IRS-1 and PKC in hepatic and skeletal muscle. HOMA was also negatively correlated with skeletal muscle GLUT4. Conclusions: Bitter gourd extract improves glucose homeostasis and lipid profile in diabetic rats via enhancement of insulin secretion and sensitivity. Therefore, bitter gourd can be used as a potential pharmacological agent for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Background: The main aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of empagliflozin 10 mg once daily over 12 weeks as add-on therapy to metformin plus sulfonylurea in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with inadequate glycemic control.Methods: It is a prospective, observational, study conducted in patients of Sri Badhrakali Diabetic Center located in Warangal, Telangana, India. The efficacy of empagliflozin 10 mg was assessed by measuring the change in the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), body mass index (BMI) at the baseline and 12 weeks, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) at the baseline and after 24 hours of treatment.Results: In the present study, the addition of empagliflozin to metformin and Sulfonylurea therapy for 12 weeks provided 0.87 % reduction in HbA1c. The mean changes of FPG from baseline to 12-week is -26 mg/dl. At 24 hours empagliflozin significantly reduced blood pressure with mean changes of SBP and DBP -4.147 and -1.526 mmHg respectively. The mean changes in BMI from baseline to week 12 is -0.638 kg/m2.Conclusions: Empagliflozin 10 mg provided ancillary reduction in HbA1c outside of metformin and sulfonylurea. Controlled body weight, HbA1c, blood pressure decreases diabetes progression, decreased risk of diabetic complications and reduced risk for cardiovascular disorders.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of glibenclamide on neurovascular units (NVUs) and its possible mechanism in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury models.Methods One hundred and twenty healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group, model group, and glibenclamide (GBC) treatment group (n=40). Two h reperfusion models of acute focal middle cerebral artery occlusion were prepared by thread occlusion in rats of the latter two groups; rats in the model group were treated with 0.05% DMSO saline solution two h after ischemia, and rats in the GBC treatment group were given intraperitoneal injection of 10μg/kg GBC with single dose. Immunofluorescence and Western blotting were used to detect the protein levels of sulfonylurea receptor 1 (SUR1) and transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 4 (TRPM4) 8 h after reperfusion, and ELISA was used to detect the plasma level of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9). At 24 h after reperfusion, Zea Longa scale was used to determine the neurological deficits; water content in the brain tissues was detected by dry and wet weight method, and blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability was detected by Evans blue (EB) staining; Nissl staining was employed to detect the survival neurons; ionized calcium bindingadaptor molecule-1 (Iba-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) positive cells and IgG seepage quantity were detected by immumohistochemical staining to assess the neuro-vascular inflammation; the expressions of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-Akt), phosphorylated c-jun amino-terminal kinase (p-JNK), and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) were detected by Western blotting.Results (1) At 8 h after reperfusion, the protein expressions of SUR1 and TRPM4 in the brain tissues of the model group were significantly increased as compared with those of the sham-operated group (P<0.05), and the two proteins were co-located; as compared with those in the model group, the protein expressions of SUR1 and TRPM4 in GBC treatment group was decreased, but the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). As compared with the sham-operated group, the model group had significantly higher MMP-9 level (P<0.05); as compared with the model group, the GBC treatment group had significantly lower MMP-9 level (P<0.05). (2) At 24 h after reperfusion, as compared with the sham-operated group, the model group had significantly increased Zea Longa scale scores, statistically increased brain water content, significantly increased EB permeability, significantly increased IgG seepage quantity, significantly smaller number of Nissl's staining-positive neurons, significantly larger number of Iba-1, COX-2 positive cells, and significantly decreased protein expressions of HSP70 and p-Akt (P<0.05); as compared with the model group, the GBC treatment group had significantly decreased Zea Longa scores, statistically decreased brain water content, significantly decreased EB permeability, significantly decreased IgG seepage quantity, significantly larger number of Nissl's staining-positive neurons, significantly smaller number of Iba-1, COX-2 positive cells, and significantly increased protein expressions of HSP70 and p-Akt (P<0.05).Conclusion SUR1-TRPM4 expression is increased after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury, and inhibition of SUR1-TRPM4 with GBC shows a protective role in NVUs after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury, possibly by regulating HSP70/p-Akt/MMP-9/COX-2 inflammatory signal pathway.
Résumé
The pathogenesis of neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is mostly associated with mutations in genes related to the function or the number of islet β cells and pancreatic development and differentiation.Some of them are aberrant gene mutations related to chromosome methylation.With the amplification of pathogenic gene spectrum, new characteristics of clinical phenotypes have been discovered.In addition to insulin therapy, safe and effective sulfonylurea drugs can improve the neurodevelopmental disorders of some children with K-ATP channel related gene mutations by shutting down the K-ATP channel and releasing insulin.The review describes the recent research on the mechanism of NDM gene mutations and summarizes its clinical features to provide new ideas for treatment.

Résumé
Objective: To estimate the risk of malignant tumors in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to evaluate the possible impact of using anti-diabetic agent on the risk. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was designed to include registered T2DM patients in the diabetes management system of Nanhu, Xiuzhou and Haining Districts in Jaxing City, Zhejiang Province. A record linkage was conducted for those patients diagnosed from January 1st, 2009 to December 31st, 2016 with the Cancer Registry System and the Vital Statics using ID number to obtain the information on cancer incidence and all-cause deaths up to December 2016. The incidence and the standardized incidence ratio (SIR) of malignant tumors in the patients with T2DM were calculated by gender. COX regression model was applied to estimate hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of using anti-diabetic agents with the risk of cancer. Results: Within 1 year of diabetes diagnosis, a small peak of overall cancer incidence was observed in a total of 52 911 patients with T2DM. After controlling the potential detection bias by excluding events and person-years in the first year of observation, the lower risks of overall cancer (SIR = 0.89, 95% CI: 0.83-0.95), esophageal cancer (SIR = 0.56, 95% CI: 0.37-0.81), stomach cancer (SIR = 0.60, 95% CI: 0.44-0.79) and lung cancer (SIR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.62-0.84) were observed in men as compared with their counterparts in general population, and the higher risks were observed for kidney cancer (SIR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.02-2.57) and pancreas cancer (SIR = 1.36, 95% CI: 1.02-1.78). In women, a lower risk of stomach cancer (SIR = 0.56, 95% CI: 0.34-0.87) and a higher risk of pancreas cancer (SIR = 1.77, 95% CI: 1.34-2.31) were found as compared with general population. The patients using oral anti-diabetic agents only had lower risk of overall cancer, with SIR (95% CI) being 0.78 (0.69-0.89) in men and 0.79 (0.69-0.91) in women. However, no significant association was observed between the use of anti-diabetes agents and the risk of cancer in diabetes patients after adjusting the possible confounding factors with COX risk regression model. Conclusion: The incidences of overall, esophageal, stomach and lung cancers in male patients with T2DM in Jiaxing City are lower than those in general population, while those of kidney and pancreas cancers are higher. The incidence of stomach cancer in fremale patients with T2DM is lower than that in general population, while that of pancreas cancer is higher. Use of anti-diabetic agents, particularly metformin and sulfonylurea may decrease the risk of cancer in the patients with T2DM.
Résumé
BACKGROUND: Metformin, sulfonylurea, and dietary fiber are known to affect gut microbiota in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This open and single-arm pilot trial investigated the effects of the additional use of fiber on glycemic parameters, insulin, incretins, and microbiota in patients with T2DM who had been treated with metformin and sulfonylurea. METHODS: Participants took fiber for 4 weeks and stopped for the next 4 weeks. Glycemic parameters, insulin, incretins during mixed-meal tolerance test (MMTT), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) level, and fecal microbiota were analyzed at weeks 0, 4, and 8. The first tertile of difference in glucose area under the curve during MMTT between weeks 0 and 4 was defined as ‘responders’ and the third as ‘nonresponders,’ respectively. RESULTS: In all 10 participants, the peak incretin levels during MMTT were higher and LPS were lower at week 4 as compared with at baseline. While the insulin sensitivity of the ‘responders’ increased at week 4, that of the ‘nonresponders’ showed opposite results. However, the results were not statistically significant. In all participants, metabolically unfavorable microbiota decreased at week 4 and were restored at week 8. At baseline, metabolically hostile bacteria were more abundant in the ‘nonresponders.’ In ‘responders,’ Roseburia intestinalis increased at week 4. CONCLUSION: While dietary fiber did not induce additional changes in glycemic parameters, it showed a trend of improvement in insulin sensitivity in ‘responders.’ Even if patients are already receiving diabetes treatment, the additional administration of fiber can lead to additional benefits in the treatment of diabetes.

BACKGROUND: Diabetes is associated with cancer risk in the aging population. Observational studies have indicated the beneficial effects of metformin against breast cancer, making studies on the anticancer potential of antidiabetic drugs worthwhile. This study investigated cancer incidence in patients on antidiabetic monotherapy. METHODS: Using National Health Insurance Service data (2002–2013), a retrospective cohort study that included type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients was conducted. Study subjects were enrolled if they were ≥30 years old, on monotherapy for diabetes, and cancer-free. They were followed up for cancer occurrence or death, until December 31st, 2013. A Cox proportional hazard model analysis was conducted between metformin and sulfonylurea (including meglitinide) users, to determine cancer risk, with adjustment for age, gender, comorbidity index, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and T2DM duration. RESULTS: The number of antidiabetic monotherapy-treated T2DM patients without a history of cancer was 9,554 (metformin, n = 5,825; sulfonylurea, n = 3,225; others, n = 504). During the follow-up period (mean, 2.04; IQR, 3.18 years), the cancer incidence rate was 5.48/100 and 5.45/100 patient-years for metformin and sulfonylurea, respectively. The hazard ratio (HR) for risk of cancer incidence in the metformin group was 0.74 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.66–0.83; p < 0.0001), compared with sulfonylurea. Additionally, the HRs for risks of lung, liver, and stomach cancer were respectively 0.46 (95% CI, 0.31–0.66; p < 0.0001), 0.41 (95% CI, 0.31–0.54; p < 0.0001), and 0.51 (95% CI, 0.35–0.73; p = 0.0003). CONCLUSION: Antidiabetic therapy with metformin reduces cancer risk by 26%, specifically for lung, liver, and stomach cancer.

BACKGROUND: We assessed the frequency and severity of hypoglycemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients treated with sulfonylurea monotherapy or sulfonylurea+metformin. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective, observational, cross-sectional study in 2011 and 2012 including patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus aged ≥30 years who were treated with ≥6 months of sulfonylurea monotherapy or sulfonylurea+metformin at 20 university-affiliated hospitals in Korea. At enrollment, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was assessed; participants completed self-reported questionnaires describing hypoglycemia incidents over the past 6 months. A review of medical records up to 12 months before enrollment provided data on demographics, disease history, comorbidities, laboratory results, and drug usage. RESULTS: Of 726 enrolled patients, 719 were included (55.6% male); 31.7% and 68.3% were on sulfonylurea monotherapy and sulfonylurea+metformin, respectively. Mean±standard deviation age was 65.9±10.0 years; mean HbA1c level was 7.0%±1.0%; 77.8% of patients had hypertension (89.4% used antihypertensive medication); 60.5% had lipid disorders (72.5% used lipid-lowering medication); and 52.0% had one or more micro- or macrovascular diseases. Among patients with A1c measurement (n=717), 56.4% achieved therapeutic goals (HbA1c <7.0%); 42.4% (305/719) experienced hypoglycemia within 6 months of enrollment; and 38.8%, 12.9%, 12.7%, and 3.9% of patients experienced mild, moderate, severe, and very severe hypoglycemia symptoms, respectively. Several reported hypoglycemia frequency as 1–2 times over the last 6 months. The mean number of very severe hypoglycemia episodes was 3.5±5.5. CONCLUSION: Among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients treated with sulfonylurea-based regimens, glycemic levels were relatively well controlled but hypoglycemia remained a prevalent side effect.

Overuse of antidiabetic medications is the most common cause of hypoglycemia in diabetic subjects. Here, we report a case of hypoglycemia associated with sulfonylurea administration. An 83-year-old female patient was admitted to the emergency department with complaints of loss of consciousness and fainting. The patient's blood glucose level was of 33 mg/dL, and she received emergency treatment with an intravenous 10% dextrose solution. In conclusion, sulfonylureas in combination with antidiabetic therapy increase the risk of hypoglycemic events in elderly patients with renal failure. Therefore, we suggest that physicians should closely monitor these patients for hypoglycemia and, preferably, use drugs that have less hypoglycemia side effects

A sensitive method was proposed for determination of 13 kinds of sulfonylurea herbicides residues in aquatic products by solid phase extraction-ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (SPE-UPLC-MS/MS). The edible part of carp, penaeus vannamei,crab,clam and sea cucumber were collected and homogenized. Analytes was extracted with ethyl acetate,and then cleaned up by MAX solid phase extraction column. Qualitation of the analytes was achieved with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) and the external standard method was used for quantification. The 13 kinds of sulfonylurea herbicides showed good linearity in the concentration range of 5.0-100.0 μg/L respectively. The detection limits of the 13 analytes were 1.0 μg/kg, and the limit of quantification was 2.0 μg/kg. The average recoveries ranged from 75.4% to 118.3% with relative standard deviations from 2.1% to 14.5%. The 13 target analytes were not detected in grass carp,carp,sea cucumber,prawn,turbot of breeding and crabs from the market. The halosulfuron-methyl was detected in the edible tissues of crabs exposed to a 1.0 mg/L halosulfuron-methyl solution for 24,48 and 72 h,and the concentrations were 6.20, 12.1 and 16. 6 μg/kg respectively. The method can be stable and sensitive, and is applied to the determination of 13 kinds of sulfonylurea herbicides residues in aquatic products.
Résumé
Permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus is most commonly caused by mutations in the ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) subunits. Prompt initiation of sulfonylurea treatment can improve glycemic control in children with KCNJ11 mutation. In this report, we present a case of permanent neonatal diabetes caused by a mutation in the KCNJ11 gene that was successfully treated via early switching of insulin to sulfonylurea treatment. A 53-day-old female infant presented with diabetic ketoacidosis. Insulin was administered for the ketoacidosis and blood glucose regulation. At 3 months of age, using genomic DNA extracted from peripheral lymphocytes, direct sequencing of KCNJ11 identified a heterozygous mutation of c.158G>A (p.G53D) and confirmed the diagnosis of permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus. Subsequently, treatment with sulfonylurea was initiated, and the insulin dose was gradually tapered. At 4 months of age, insulin therapy was discontinued, and sulfonylurea (glimepiride, 0.75 mg/kg) was administered alone. At 6 months after initiation of administration of sulfonylurea monotherapy, blood glucose control was stable, and no hypoglycemic events or developmental delays were reported. C-peptide levels increased during treatment with sulfonylurea. Early switching to sulfonylurea in infants with permanent diabetes mellitus owing to a KCNJ11 mutation could successfully help regulate glycemic control, which suggests the need for early genetic testing in patients presenting with diabetes before 6 months of age.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have noted that the simultaneous use of sulfonylureas and antimicrobials, which is common, could increase the risk of hypoglycemia. In particular, an age of 65 years or older is a known risk factor for sulfonylurea-related hypoglycemia in hospitalized patients. Therefore, we performed this study to determine the potential risk of hypoglycemia from the concurrent use of antimicrobials and sulfonylureas. METHODS: We performed a cross-sectional study on the National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort from 2013. The eligibility criteria included patients of 65 years of age or older taking a sulfonylurea with 25 different antimicrobials. Different risk ratings of severity in drug-drug interactions (potential DDIs), level X, D, or C in Lexi-Interact™online, and contraindicated, major, or moderate severity level in Micromedex® were included. SAS version 9.4 was used for data analysis. RESULTS: A total of 6,006 elderly patients with 25,613 prescriptions were included. The largest age group was 70 to 74 (32.7%), and 39.7% of patients were men. The mean number of prescriptions was 4.3 per patient. The most frequently used antimicrobials were levofloxacin (6,583, 25.7%), ofloxacin (6,549, 25.6%), fluconazole (4,678, 18.0%), and ciprofloxacin (2,551, 9.8%). Among sulfonylureas, glimepiride was prescribed most frequently, followed by gliclazide, glibenclamide, and glipizide. CONCLUSION: Of the antimicrobials with a high potential of hypoglycemia, levofloxacin, ofloxacin, fluconazole, and ciprofloxacin were used frequently. Thus, the monitoring of clinically relevant interactions is required for patients concurrently administered sulfonylureas and antimicrobials.

ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K) are energy sensors on the plasma membrane. By sensing the intracellular ADP/ATP ratio of β-cells, pancreatic K channels control insulin release and regulate metabolism at the whole body level. They are implicated in many metabolic disorders and diseases and are therefore important drug targets. Here, we present three structures of pancreatic K channels solved by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), at resolutions ranging from 4.1 to 4.5 Å. These structures depict the binding site of the antidiabetic drug glibenclamide, indicate how Kir6.2 (inward-rectifying potassium channel 6.2) N-terminus participates in the coupling between the peripheral SUR1 (sulfonylurea receptor 1) subunit and the central Kir6.2 channel, reveal the binding mode of activating nucleotides, and suggest the mechanism of how Mg-ADP binding on nucleotide binding domains (NBDs) drives a conformational change of the SUR1 subunit.

Levels of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gaseous signaling molecule, are reduced in the serum of individuals who smoke. We hypothesized that tobacco smoke influenced smooth muscle relaxation by decreasing H2S levels and this effect could also influence expression of cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) and sulfonylurea receptor-2 (SUR-2). The aim of this study was to explore the effect of tobacco smoke on H2S-mediated rat thoracic aorta relaxation and its possible mechanism. Thirty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups: control (C) group, short-term smoker (SS) group, mid-term smoker (MS) group, and long-term smoker (LS) group. H2S concentrations in serum, action of H2S on rat aortic vascular relaxation, and expression of CSE and SUR-2 in thoracic aortic smooth muscle were measured. Although there was no significant difference in H2S between the C and the SS groups, concentration of H2S was significantly reduced in both the LS and MS groups compared to control (P<0.01). Furthermore, H2S was significantly lower in the LS than in the MS group (P<0.05). Rat aortic vascular relaxation was lower in all three treatment groups compared to the control, with the most significant decrease observed in the LS group (P<0.05 compared to the MS group). Expression of CSE and SUR-2 was reduced in the LS and MS groups compared to control (P<0.05), with the lowest levels observed in the LS group (P<0.05). Therefore, tobacco smoke reduced expression of CSE and SUR-2 in rat thoracic aorta, which may inhibit H2S production and vascular dilation.

Résumé
BACKGROUND: Many Muslim type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients choose to fast the month of Ramadan despite the possible adverse health effects brought about by the change in dietary habits, among other things. Clinical data regarding the safety of multi-drug regimens during fasting are particularly scarce. The aim of the study was to evaluate the safety of a drug protocol devised by the authors to accommodate Ramadan's dietary changes, involving dose adjustments of four anti-diabetic drug regimens in T2DM patients fasting Ramadan. METHODS: In this prospective, observational, open-label study, 301 T2DM patients who wished to fast Ramadan were followed during Ramadan and the preceding month. The incidence of hypoglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and non-ketotic hyperosmolar state (NKHS) was monitored. Patients were classified into four groups: A group (those taking metformin, sulfonylurea and insulin [n=33]); B group (metformin and sulfonylurea [n=89]); C group (metformin and insulin [n=96]); and D group (premixed 70/30, glargine or regular insulin [n=82]). During Ramadan, drug doses were adjusted as percentages of their pre-Ramadan values: 75% for sulfonylureas, 75% for glargine, 75% for premixed insulin 70/30 in two doses, and 75% for regular insulin. Metformin was adjusted to a twice-daily regimen. RESULTS: No cases of DKA or NKHS were reported. Hypoglycemia occurred at a lower rate than pre-Ramadan values in groups C, and D; and a similar rate in groups A, and B. CONCLUSION: The data suggested that using the above protocol to adjust the doses of anti-diabetic drugs is safe in T2DM patients in regards to hypoglycemia, DKA, and NKHS.

Permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM) is caused by mutations in the ATP-sensitive potassium channel (K(ATP) channel) subunits. Developmental delay, epilepsy, and neonatal diabetes (DEND) syndrome is the most severe form of PNDM and is characterized by various neurologic features. We report on a patient with DEND syndrome following initial misdiagnosis with type 1 DM, who was successfully switched from insulin to sulfonylurea therapy. A 50-day-old male presented with fever and seizure, complicated by persistent hyperglycemia. Insulin therapy was initiated. At 10 months of age, the patient was unable to hold his head up and make eye contact with others. At 17.9 years of age, direct sequencing of KCNJ11 identified a heterozygous mutation of c.602G>A (p.R201H). Since then, treatment with gliclazide was initiated and the insulin dose was gradually reduced. Following 3 months, insulin was discontinued with a gliclazide dose of 2.4 mg/kg. The patient continued to have excellent glycemic control with a glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level of 5.8% after 5 months. However, the patient's psychomotor retardation did not improve. This study reports the first case of DEND syndrome in Korea caused by a KCNJ11 mutation and emphasizes the necessity to screen mutations in KATP channel genes in patients with neonatal diabetes.

BACKGROUND: There were a limited number of studies about β-cell function after insulin initiation in patients exposed to long durations of sulfonylurea treatment. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the recovery of β-cell function and the efficacy of concurrent sulfonylurea use after the start of long-acting insulin. METHODS: In this randomized controlled study, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), receiving sulfonylurea for at least 2 years with glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) >7%, were randomly assigned to two groups: sulfonylurea maintenance (SM) and sulfonylurea reduction (SR). Following a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), we administered long-acting basal insulin to the two groups. After a 6-month follow-up, we repeated the OGTT. RESULTS: Among 69 enrolled patients, 57 completed the study and were analyzed: 31 in the SM and 26 in the SR group. At baseline, there was no significant difference except for the longer duration of diabetes and lower triglycerides in the SR group. After 6 months, the HbA1c was similarly reduced in both groups, but there was little difference in the insulin dose. In addition, insulin secretion during OGTT was significantly increased by 20% to 30% in both groups. A significant weight gain was observed in the SM group only. The insulinogenic index was more significantly improved in the SR group. CONCLUSION: Long-acting basal insulin replacement could improve the glycemic status and restore β-cell function in the T2DM patients undergoing sulfonylurea-based treatment, irrespective of the sulfonylurea dose reduction. The dose reduction of the concurrent sulfonylurea might be beneficial with regard to weight grain.
