Inhibitors of the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) are antidiabetic agents which exert renoprotective effects, beyond the glycemic benefit, in humans and experimental models of cardiovascular and renal diseases. Inhibition of DPPIV reduces Na+/H+ exchanger 3 (NHE3)-dependent Na+ reabsorption in proximal renal tubule and this inhibitory effect is associated with the reduction of bloo…
A large body of clinical and experimental evidence documents the importance of the kidney in defining the blood pressure (BP) set point and pathogenesis of hypertension. Body fluid volumes and Na+ balance are maintained by the renal regulation of a series of apical Na+ transporters located along the nephron. Changes in the number and/or intrinsic activity of these transporters affect Na+ …
Studies conducted by numerous research laboratories, including ours, underscore the need for undertaking cardiorenal approaches to effectively contain the progression of certain cardiovascular diseases. Edema is the hallmark of congestive heart failure (HF). The most important causes of edema in HF are salt and water retention by the kidneys. The potential causes of altered renal handling…
Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors are antidiabetic agents that exert renoprotective effects beyond glucose control in humans and experimental models of cardiovascular and renal diseases. DPP4 inhibition reduces Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3)-dependent sodium reabsorption in the renal proximal tubule, and this inhibitory effect is associated with blood pressure lowering effects i…
