Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 (DPP4) Inhibitors

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Diabetes and Kidney Disease

Abstract

Diabetes type 2 is the single most important cause of End-Stage Kidney Disease. The dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) are oral, weight-neutral hypoglycemic drugs used to treat patients with T2DM by preventing the breakdown of glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide, two incretins pivotal for glucose regulation. This short chapter will summarize key findings from the landmark cardiovascular safety, heart failure, and kidney disease with these agents. The basic pharmacology, mechanisms of action, adverse events, and pharmacological profile of agents approved for human use are presented in a concise fashion, and directions are given for the successful clinical use of these agents in patients with diabetes type 2 as well as the recipients of kidney transplants with diabetes and patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis.
