چکیده انگلیسی
The glucokinase activators improve the fasting as well as postprandial glucose control and are important investigational drugs for the treatment of diabetes. However, recent studies have implicated that continuous activation of glucokinase with a small molecule activator can increase hepatic triglycerides and the long term glucose control is not achieved. In this study, we investigated the effect of combination of glucokinase activator (GKA, Piragliatin) with GLP-1 receptor agonist exendin-4 (Ex-4) in male db/db mice. Twelve weeks combination treatment in the db/db mice resulted in a significant decrease in body weight gain, food consumption, random glucose and %HbA1c. The decrease in serum glucose and %HbA1c in combination group was more profound and significantly different than that of individual treatment (GKA or Ex-4) group. GKA treatment increased hepatic triglycerides, whereas combination of Ex-4 with GKA attenuated hepatic steatosis. The combination of GKA with Ex-4 reduced the hepatic lipid accumulation, improved the insulin sensitivity, and reduced hepatic glucose production in db/db mice. Overall, our data indicate that combination of GKA and GLP-1 receptor agonist Ex-4 improves glucose homeostasis, shows antiobesity activity, without causing harmful side effects like fatty liver.
