    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SGLT2_inhibitor

    Dapagliflozin is an example of an SGLT-2 inhibitor, it is a competitive, highly selective inhibitor of SGLT. It acts via selective and potent inhibition of SGLT-2, and its activity is based on each patient's underlying blood sugar control and kidney function. The results are decreased kidney reabsorption of glucose, glucosuria effect increases ...

    [14] [16] There is some evidence for SGLT-2 inhibitors, GLP-1 agonists, pioglitazone, and vitamin E in the treatment of MASLD. [17] [18] In March 2024, resmetirom was the first drug approved by the FDA for MASH. [19] Those with MASH have a 2.6% increased risk of dying per year. [5]

    [1] [2] Both SGLT1 and SGLT2 function as symporters, utilizing the energy from the sodium gradient created by the Na+/K+ ATPase to transport glucose against its concentration gradient. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] SGLT2, encoded by the SLC5A2 gene, is predominantly expressed in the S1 and S2 segments of the proximal renal tubule and is responsible for ...

    Metformin was approved in Canada in 1972, [6] but did not receive approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for type 2 diabetes until 1994. [170] Produced under license by Bristol-Myers Squibb , Glucophage was the first branded formulation of metformin to be marketed in the U.S., beginning on 3 March 1995. [ 171 ]

    Sodium/glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT1) also known as solute carrier family 5 member 1 is a protein in humans that is encoded by the SLC5A1 gene [4] [5] which encodes the production of the SGLT1 protein to line the absorptive cells in the small intestine and the epithelial cells of the kidney tubules of the nephron for the purpose of glucose uptake into cells.
