Luseogliflozin, a SGLT2 Inhibitor, Does Not Affect Glucose Uptake Kinetics in Renal Proximal Tubules of Live Mice.

ABSTRACT: Proximal tubules (PTs) take up most of the glucose in the glomerular filtrate and return it to peritubular capillary blood. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) at the apical membrane takes up glucose into the cell. Glucose then flows across the cells and is transported to the interstitium via glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) at the basolateral membrane. However, glucose transport under SGLT2 inhibition remains poorly understood. In this study, we evaluated the dynamics of a fluorescent glucose analog, 2-NBDG, in the PTs of live mice treated with or without the SGLT2 inhibitor, luseogliflozin. We employed real-time multiphoton microscopy, in which insulin enhanced 2-NBDG uptake in skeletal muscle. Influx and efflux of 2-NBDG in PT cells were compared under hypo-, normo-, and hyperglycemic conditions. Luseogliflozin did not exert significant effects on glucose influx parameters under any level of blood glucose. Our results suggest that blood glucose level per se does not alter glucose influx or efflux kinetics in PTs. In conclusion, neither SGLT2 inhibition nor blood glucose level affect glucose uptake kinetics in PTs. The former was because of glucose influx through basolateral GLUT2, which is an established bidirectional transporter.

Project description:IntroductionWe investigated the impact of reduced renal function on 24-h glucose variability in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) treated with luseogliflozin.MethodsIn this double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study, 37 Japanese patients with T2DM [glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) 7.0-10.0%] and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥45 mL/min/1.73 m(2) were randomized into two groups in which patients first received luseogliflozin then placebo, or vice versa, for 7 days each. Twenty-four-hour glucose variability was measured on day 7 in each period and was compared among patients divided into three groups according to their baseline eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m(2)): normal (≥90; n = 13; normal group), normal-to-mildly reduced renal function (≥75 to <90; n = 12; normal-mild group), and mild-to-moderately reduced renal function (<75; n = 9; mild-moderate group).ResultsThe mean [95% confidence interval (CI)] placebo-subtracted 24-h cumulative urinary glucose excretion (g) was 82.1 (72.7, 91.5), 82.5 (73.4, 91.5), and 62.2 (51.2, 73.3); the placebo-subtracted 24-h mean glucose concentration (mg/dL) was -24.39 (-32.53, -16.26), -28.28 (-39.35, -17.22), and -11.53 (-23.93, 0.86); and the placebo-subtracted peak postprandial glucose (mg/dL) was -26.9 (-46.9, -6.9), -38.1 (-59.6, -16.6), and 1.5 (-25.5, 28.4) in the normal, normal-mild, and mild-moderate groups, respectively. The mean lowest glucose concentrations (placebo vs. luseogliflozin, mg/dL) decreased to similar levels in the normal (115.4 vs. 93.4), normal-mild (121.0 vs. 97.9), and mild-moderate (104.0 vs. 91.1) groups.ConclusionThis post hoc subanalysis revealed that although mild-to-moderately reduced renal function attenuated the glucose-lowering effects of luseogliflozin on peak postprandial glucose, it did not attenuate the effects of luseogliflozin on fasting glucose. These findings may explain the smaller increase in urinary glucose excretion in these patients relative to patients with normal renal function or normal-to-moderately reduced renal function. Further studies may be needed to examine these findings in large populations of patients with T2DM and reduced renal function.Trial registrationJapicCTI-142548.FundingTaisho Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
