Inhibitors of sodium glucose transporter 2 (SGLT2) reduce glycemia and exert beneficial effects on diabetic complications. Recently, dual SGLT1/2 inhibition has been proposed to be more effective in reducing glycemia. We hypothesized that improving hepatic glucose metabolism induced by SGLT1/2 inhibition could be accompanied by beneficial effects on NAFLD progression.Methods: Glycemic homeostasis, hepatic glucose production and NAFLD features were investigated in obese T2D mice, treated with SGLT1/2 inhibitor phlorizin for 1 week.Results: T2D increased glycemia; insulinemia; hepatic expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) and glucose transporter 2 (Slc2a2 gene); hepatocyte nuclear factors 1A/4A/3B-binding activity in Slc2a2; endogenous glucose production; liver weight, plasma transaminase concentration as well as hepatic inflammation markers, and induced histological signals of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH, according to NASH-CRN Pathology Committee System). Phlorizin treatment restored all these parameters (mean NASH score reduced from 5.25 to 2.75 P< 0.001); however, plasma transaminase concentration was partially reverted and some hepatic inflammation markers remained unaltered.Conclusion: NAFLD accompanies altered hepatic glucose metabolism in T2D mice and that greatly ameliorated through short-term treatment with the dual SGLT1/2 inhibitor. This suggests that altered hepatic glucose metabolism participates in T2D-related NAFLD and highlights the pharmacological inhibition of SGLTs as a useful approach not only for controlling glycemia but also for mitigating development and/or progression of NAFLD.Keywords: GLUT2, PEPCK, G6Pase, phlorizin, NASHDavid-Silva AEsteves JVMorais MRPTFreitas HSZorn TMCorrea-Giannella MLMachado UFDove Medical Pressarticleglut2pepckg6pasephlorizinnash.Specialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 13, Pp 739-751 (2020) |
