More Info
Biological target:
Linagliptin (BI-1356) is a highly potent, selective DPP-4 inhibitor with IC50 of 1 nM and exhibits a 10,000-fold higher selectivity for DPP-4 than for other dipeptidyl peptidases such as DPP-2, DPP-8, and DPP-9.
In vitro activity:
Treatment with LNG did not cause statistically significant decreases of cell viability at lower concentrations than 100 mg/L as compared to untreated cultures. However, LNG exhibited cytotoxic action at 250 and 500 mg/L. Also, IC20 and IC50 values of LNG were determined as 8.827 and 70.307 mg/L, respectively. In addition, the oxidative analysis revealed that LNG supported antioxidant capacity at concentrations of 2.5, 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 mg/L without generating oxidative stress. Besides, the results of CA and 8-oxo-dG assays showed in vitro non-genotoxic feature of LNG. As a conclusion, these findings clearly revealed that LNG had no cytotoxic and genotoxic actions, but exhibited antioxidative activity. In conclusion, therefore it is suggested that LNG use in diabetic patients is safe and provides protection against diabetic vascular and oxidative complications.

In vivo activity:
DPP-4 activity was inhibited by oral administration of linagliptin during healing. Wound tissue was analyzed by using histological, molecular, and biochemical techniques. In healthy mice, DPP-4 was constitutively expressed in the keratinocytes of nonwounded skin. After skin injury, DPP-4 expression declined and was lowest during the most active phase of tissue reassembly. In contrast, in ob/ob mice, we observed increasing levels of DPP-4 at late time points, when delayed tissue repair still occurs. Oral administration of the DPP-4 inhibitor linagliptin strongly reduced DPP-4 activity, stabilized active GLP-1 in chronic wounds, and improved healing in ob/ob mice. At day 10 postwounding, linagliptin-treated ob/ob mice showed largely epithelialized wounds characterized by the absence of neutrophils. In addition, DPP-4 inhibition reduced the expression of the proinflammatory markers cyclooxygenase-2 and macrophage inflammatory protein-2, but enhanced the formation of myofibroblasts in healing wounds from ob/ob mice.
