Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibitors Decrease the Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Patients With Chronic Hepatitis C Infection and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Nationwide Study in Taiwan

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2021
Introduction: Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP-4 inhibitors) are incretin-based oral antidiabetic drugs. Previous studies have shown an association between increased plasma activity of DPP-4 and chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Dipeptidyl

The association of bullous pemphigoid with dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 inhibitors: a ten-year prospective observational study

open access: yesBMC Endocrine Disorders, 2021
Background Bullous pemphigoid is the most common bullous chronic autoimmune skin disease. Recent studies have suggested dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 inhibitors as possible predisposing agents of bullous pemphigoid.

New insights into the role of dipeptidyl peptidase 8 and dipeptidyl peptidase 9 and their inhibitors

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Dipeptidyl peptidase 8 (DPP8) and 9 (DPP9) are widely expressed in mammals including humans, mainly locate in the cytoplasm. The DPP8 and DPP9 (DPP8/9) belong to serine proteolytic enzymes, they can recognize and cleave N-terminal dipeptides of specific ...

Solvent and thermal stability, and pH kinetics, of proline-specific dipeptidyl peptidase IV-like enzyme from bovine serum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Proline-specific dipeptidyl peptidase-like (DPP IV; EC 3.4.14.5) activity in bovine serum has attracted little attention despite its ready availability and the paucity of useful proline-cleaving enzymes.

Dipeptidyl peptidase IV, aminopeptidase N and DPIV/APN-like proteases in cerebral ischemia

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2012
Background Cerebral inflammation is a hallmark of neuronal degeneration. Dipeptidyl peptidase IV, aminopeptidase N as well as the dipeptidyl peptidases II, 8 and 9 and cytosolic alanyl-aminopeptidase are involved in the regulation of autoimmunity and ...

Comparing treatment intensification and clinical outcomes of metformin and dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitors in treatment‐naïve patients with type 2 diabetes in Japan

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, 2020
Japan's guidelines emphasize tailored therapy, but do not guide physicians on the use of a specific regimen in drug‐naive patients. The role of long‐term initial therapy could be important in key elements of diabetes treatment, such as continuation of ...
