The GLP1R Agonist Liraglutide Reduces Hyperglucagonemia Induced by the SGLT2 Inhibitor Dapagliflozin via Somatostatin Release

The newest classes of anti-diabetic agents include sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP1R) agonists. The SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin reduces glucotoxicity by glycosuria but elevates glucagon secretion. The GLP1R agonist liraglutide inhibits glucagon; therefore, we hypothesize that the cotreatment of dapagliflozin with liraglutide could reduce hyperglucagonemia and hyperglycemia. Here we...
