Antidiabetic effects and sustained metabolic benefits of sub-chronic co-administration of exendin-4/gastrin and xenin-8-Gln in high fat fed mice.
    European journal of pharmacology, 2019, Dec-15, Volume: 865

    The present study has examined the antidiabetic effects of 21 days co-administration of xenin-8-Gln with the dual-acting fusion peptide, exendin-4/gastrin, as well as persistence of beneficial metabolic benefits, in high fat fed (HFF) mice. Xenin-8-Gln, exendin-4 and gastrin represent compounds that activate receptors of the gut-derived hormones, xenin, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and gastrin, respectively. Twice-daily administration of exendin-4/gastrin, xenin-8-Gln or a combination of both peptides significantly reduced circulating glucose, HbA1c and cumulative energy intake. Combination therapy with xenin-8-Gln and exendin-4/gastrin increased circulating insulin. All HFF mice treated with exendin-4/gastrin presented with body weight similar to lean control mice on day 21. Each treatment improved glucose tolerance and the glucose-lowering actions of glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), as well as augmenting glucose- and GIP-induced insulin secretion, with benefits being most prominent in the combination group. Administration of exendin-4/gastrin alone, and in combination with xenin-8-Gln, increased pancreatic insulin content and improved the insulin sensitivity index. Pancreatic beta-cell area was significantly increased, and alpha cell area decreased, by all treatments, with the combination group also displaying enhanced overall islet area. Notably, metabolic benefits were generally retained in all groups of HFF mice, and especially in the combination group, following discontinuation of the treatment regimens for 21 days. This was associated with maintenance of increased islet and beta-cell areas. Together, these data confirm the antidiabetic effects of co-activation of GLP-1, gastrin and xenin cell signalling pathways, and highlight the sustainable benefits this type of treatment paradigm can offer in T2DM.

Omeprazole improves the anti-obesity and antidiabetic effects of exendin-4 in db/db mice (-4 db/db)*.
    Journal of diabetes, 2013, Volume: 5, Issue:2

    In addition to its glucoregulatory actions, exendin-4, a stable glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, exhibits protective effects in the pancreas and anti-obesity effects. Suitable combination treatment with other anti-obesity or pancreas protective agents would be an effective approach to optimize these additional effects. In the present study, we investigated the effects of the addition of omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, to exendin-4 in db/db mice, an experimental model of obesity and type 2 diabetes.. The effects repeated dose treatment for 14 days with exendin-4 (8 μg/kg, s.c.) and omeprazole (30 mg/kg, s.c.) on glycemic control, food intake, and body weight were determined in obese and hyperglycemic db/db mice. The effects of these treatments on plasma gastrin, ghrelin, and leptin levels were determined, along with effects on nausea-like symptoms. The pancreatic effects of the repeated dose treatment were assessed by measuring %HbA1c in the circulation as well as pancreatic insulin and glucagon content and glucokinase activity.. Combination treatment resulted in significant decreases in plasma leptin and ghrelin levels after repeated dosing. Omeprazole improved the anorectic and body weight-lowering effects and reversed the inhibitory effect of exendin-4 on gastrin levels after repeated dose treatment. The 14-day combination treatment significantly reduced glucose excursion and improved insulin levels, with a concomitant decrease in %HbA1c levels. It also improved glucokinase activity and pancreatic insulin content, with a significant decrease in glucagon content.. Combined treatment with omeprazole with exendin-4 reduces food intake and body weight gain, most likely through changes in plasma ghrelin and leptin levels, and improves pancreatic insulin and glucagon content by improving glucokinase activity.

Changes in gastrointestinal hormone responses, insulin sensitivity, and beta-cell function within 2 weeks after gastric bypass in non-diabetic subjects.
    Obesity surgery, 2012, Volume: 22, Issue:7

    Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery causes profound changes in secretion of gastrointestinal hormones and glucose metabolism. We present a detailed analysis of the early hormone changes after RYGB in response to three different oral test meals designed to provide this information without causing side effects (such as dumping).. We examined eight obese non-diabetic patients before and within 2 weeks after RYGB. On separate days, oral glucose tolerance tests (25 or 50 g glucose dissolved in 200 mL of water) and a liquid mixed meal test (200 mL 300 kcal) were performed. We measured fasting and postprandial glucose, insulin, C-peptide, glucagon, total and intact glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2), peptide YY(3-36) (PYY), cholecystokinin (CCK), total and active ghrelin, gastrin, somatostatin, pancreatic polypeptide (PP), amylin, leptin, free fatty acids (FFA), and registered postprandial dumping. Insulin sensitivity was measured by homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance.. Fasting glucose, insulin, ghrelin, and PYY were significantly decreased and FFA was elevated postoperatively. Insulin sensitivity increased after surgery. The postprandial response increased for C-peptide, GLP-1, GLP-2, PYY, CCK, and glucagon (in response to the mixed meal) and decreased for total and active ghrelin, leptin, and gastrin, but were unchanged for GIP, amylin, PP, and somatostatin after surgery. Dumping symptoms did not differ before and after the operation or between the tests.. Within 2 weeks after RYGB, we found an increase in insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity. Responses of appetite-regulating intestinal hormones changed dramatically, all in the direction of reducing hunger.

Mixed chimerism and growth factors augment β cell regeneration and reverse late-stage type 1 diabetes.
    Science translational medicine, 2012, May-09, Volume: 4, Issue:133

    Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from an autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing β cells. Currently, islet transplantation is the only curative therapy for late-stage T1D, but the beneficial effect is limited in its duration, even under chronic immunosuppression, because of the chronic graft rejection mediated by both auto- and alloimmunity. Clinical islet transplantation is also restricted by a severe shortage of donor islets. Induction of mixed chimerism reverses autoimmunity, eliminates insulitis, and reverses new-onset but not late-stage disease in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of T1D. Administration of gastrin and epidermal growth factor (EGF) also reverses new-onset but not late-stage T1D in this animal model. Here, we showed that combination therapy of induced mixed chimerism under a radiation-free nontoxic anti-CD3/CD8 conditioning regimen and administration of gastrin/EGF augments both β cell neogenesis and replication, resulting in reversal of late-stage T1D in NOD mice. If successfully translated into humans, this combination therapy could replace islet transplantation as a long-term curative therapy for T1D.

Basal and postprandial plasma levels of PYY, ghrelin, cholecystokinin, gastrin and insulin in women with moderate and morbid obesity and metabolic syndrome.
    Journal of physiology and pharmacology : an official journal of the Polish Physiological Society, 2007, Volume: 58 Suppl 1

    Metabolic syndrome (MS), defined as central obesity, hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, hypertension, dyslipidemia and glucose intolerance, has been associated with inflammatory biomarkers and cardiovascular diseases. This study was carried out on three groups of women; lean controls, moderately obese with MS (OB-MS) and morbidly obese with MS (MOB-MS). The main objectives were: 1. to analyze the plasma levels of total and acylated ghrelin, peptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)), cholecystokinin (CCK), gastrin and insulin levels under basal conditions and in response to a standard mixed meal, and 2. to elucidate the relationship between the plasma levels of these gut peptides and metabolic syndrome parameters. Plasma levels of the gut hormones were measured by radioimmunoassays at time 0 just before the meal and at 30, 60 and 120 min after a meal ingestion. Traditional lipid profile and high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP), the strongest biomarker of inflammation were also determined in OB-MS and MOB-MS. When compared to OB-MS, MOB-MS exhibited much higher anthropometric parameters such as waist circumference, higher fat mass and higher plasma levels of low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and hs-CRP. Both these obese groups revealed significantly higher values of body mass index (BMI), fat mass, total cholesterol (TC), LDL-C, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, insulin resistance (IR) calculated from homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) and hs-CRP compared to the values recorded in lean subjects. Fasting PYY(3-36) level was lower, while fasting acylated ghrelin was higher in MOB-MS than in OB-MS. Plasma total and acylated ghrelin levels were significantly lower in OB-MS compared to lean women. In MOB-MS women the fasting PYY(3-36) levels were lower compared to lean controls and OB-MS, whilst postprandially in both OB-MS and MOB-MS, it was much lower than in lean women. The fasting plasma levels of total and acylated ghrelin and their postprandial decrease were significantly smaller in both obese groups compared to lean subjects. Plasma hs-CRP levels correlated positively with BMI, waist circumference, fat mass, fasting glucose, HOMA IR and fasting active ghrelin, whilst it negatively correlated with plasma fasting and total ghrelin. Moreover, plasma fasting acylated ghrelin correlated positively with fat mass. Fasting total ghrelin correlated positively with BMI, HDL-C and negatively with HOMA IR. We conclude that MS features of obesity are closely

Abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, and colon carcinogenesis are increased in mutant mice lacking gastrin gene expression.
    Cancer, 2005, Jun-15, Volume: 103, Issue:12

    The authors recently reported that gastrin gene knockout (GAS-KO) mice had an increased risk for colon carcinogenesis in response to azoxymethane (AOM) compared with their wild type (WT) littermates. In the current report, the authors discuss the predisposition of GAS-KO mice to develop obesity and metabolic hormonal changes that may contribute to their increased risk of colon carcinogenesis.. The weight and deposition of fat was monitored in the mice over a 14 month period, using magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear magnetic resonance techniques. Changes in plasma concentrations of ghrelin, leptin, insulin, and glucose were assessed using radioimmunoassay analysis and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Preneoplastic markers of colon carcinogenesis (aberrant crypt foci [ACFs]), in response to AOM, were measured in a subset of obese versus lean GAS-KO mice and were compared with the markers in WT mice.. Increases in visceral adiposity were evident by age 2 months in GAS-KO mice, resulting in macroscopic obesity by age 7 months. Hyperinsulinemia and insulin:glucose ratios were increased significantly in GAS-KO mice as young as 1 month and preceded alterations in nonfasting leptin and ghrelin levels. The number of ACFs per mouse colon were increased significantly in the following order: obese GAS-KO mice > lean GAS-KO mice > WT mice. Fasting plasma insulin levels were 0.88 +/- 0.1 ng/mL, 1.45 +/- 0.3, and 2.76 +/- 0.9 ng/mL in the WT, GAS-KO lean, and GAS-KO obese mice, respectively.. The current results suggest the novel possibility that loss of amidated gastrins may increase adipogenesis, hyperinsulinemia, and colon carcinogenesis in GAS-KO mice. The increase in colon carcinogenesis may be due in part to hyperinsulinemia, increased obesity, and other associated hormone changes that were measured in GAS-KO mice.
