SGLT-2 is a member of the glucose transporter family and is a low-affinity, high-capacity glucose transporter. SGLT-2 is mainly expressed in the S-1 and S-2 segments of the proximal renal tubules where the majority of filtered glucose is absorbed. SGLT-2 has a role in regulation of glucose and is responsible for most glucose reabsorption in the ...
The researchers found that both SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 agonists were associated with a lower risk of major cardiovascular events, but the drug effects varied with the patients’ age.

[6] SGLT2 is located in the early proximal tubule, and is responsible for reabsorption of 80-90% of the glucose filtered by the kidney glomerulus. [7]
