MK-626, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, does not improve the hyperglycemia or hyperinsulinemia of nonobese diabetic MKR mice.

Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors increase circulating levels of incretin hormones, which can enhance insulin secretion and β cell function. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of MK-626 (a novel DPP-4 inhibitor) to reduce the hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia of nonobese type 2 diabetic MKR mice. Twelve to 14-week-old hyperglycemic MKR mice were gavaged daily with MK-626 (3 mg/kg body weight) or vehicle (0.5% methyl cellulose (MC)) for 2 weeks. MK-626-treated mice displayed no change in body weight or adverse reactions, suggesting good tolerance of the drug. Fed blood glucose was significantly reduced over the 2-week experiment; however, it was also reduced in the MC group, suggesting an effect of gavage alone. Fed plasma insulin and glucagon levels and glucose tolerance of MK-626-treated mice were similar to those of MC mice. Therefore, treatment with MK-626 did not correct the prolonged hyperglycemia and impaired glucose tolerance of MKR mice.
