Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors: Novel mechanism of actions
The pharmacological actions of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) are largely predictable as they interact directly with GLP-1 receptors on beta cells to mediate their glucose lowering effects by increasing GLP-1 in pharmacological ...

Nonglycemic effects of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors
The review considers the major nonglycemic effects of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors commonly used in diabetological practice, by using as an example sitagliptin, the first and most investigated representative of this class.

The role of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors
Will be clearer once ongoing trials are complete Type 2 diabetes is a progressive disease and greater treatment intensity is needed over time to control increasingly abnormal glucose concentrations.1 In the linked article (doi:10.1136/bmj.e1369), Karagiannis and colleagues present a systematic review and meta-analysis of the risks and benefits ...

The Nonglycemic Actions of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors [PDF]
A cell surface serine protease, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4), cleaves dipeptide from peptides containing proline or alanine in the N-terminal penultimate position. Two important incretin hormones, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP), enhance meal-stimulated insulin secretion from pancreaticβ-cells, but ...

Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitor-Associated Bullous Pemphigoid [PDF]
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an organ-specific autoantibody-mediated blistering skin disease that mainly affects the elderly. Typical clinical features include the widespread blisters, often preceded by and/or associated with itchy urticarial or eczema-like lesions.

The pleiotropic cardiovascular effects of dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitors [PDF]
Patients with Type 2 diabetes have an excess risk for cardiovascular disease. One of the several approaches, included in the guidelines for the management of Type 2 diabetes, is based on dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP‐4; also termed CD26) inhibitors, also called gliptins.

Increasing Age Associated with Higher Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibition Rate Is a Predictive Factor for Efficacy of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors [PDF]
Background It is not known which type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients would most benefit from dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor treatment.

Peptide‐to‐Small Molecule Paradigm: Peptidomimetics have evolved from simple mimicry toward drug‐like scaffolds supported by increasing clinical successes. This Perspective highlights the geometric design principles—linear repetition, convergent fusion, and cyclization—defining the next‐generation peptidomimetic architectures capable of targeting ...
