A Role for Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors in the Treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease: A Mini Review

Background: Sodium-glucose cotransport protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, a new type of glucose-lowering drug, have been well proved in several clinical studies for their glucose-lowering and nephroprotective effects, and the nephroprotective effects include both indirect effects of metabolic improvement...

description Background: Sodium-glucose cotransport protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, a new type of glucose-lowering drug, have been well proved in several clinical studies for their glucose-lowering and nephroprotective effects, and the nephroprotective effects include both indirect effects of metabolic improvement and direct effects, independent of glucose-lowering effects. Summary: In patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD), several studies have demonstrated the potential nephroprotective mechanisms of SGLT2 inhibitors, and evidence of nephroprotective mechanisms in the non-DKD population is accumulating. Although the nephroprotective mechanism of SGLT2 inhibitors has not been fully elucidated, several laboratory studies have illustrated the mechanism underlying the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors at various aspects. Key Messages: The purpose of this article is to review the mechanism of nephroprotective effect of SGLT2 inhibitors and to look forward to promising research in the future.
