Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibition and health benefits: The Robin Hood effect

Abstract: This review discusses two distinct, yet related, mechanisms of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibition: Calorie restriction mimicry (CRM) and pro-ketogenic effect, which may explain their cardiovascular benefits. We term these adaptive CRM and pro-ketogenic effects of SGLT2 inhibition, the Robin Hood hypothesis. In English history, Robin Hood was a “good person,” who stole from the rich and helped the poor. He supported redistribution of resources as he deemed fit for the common good. In a similar fa… Show more

“…Based on the metabolic status, individuals can be categorized into three types. [4647] The healthy individuals, considered to be “eubolic,” with appropriate balance between catabolism and anabolism have a normal IGR. Persons with hyperinsulinemia (insulin resistance) have a high IGR and can be termed “maladaptively anabolic.” In such patients, overweight or obesity, high BP, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance are observed.…”

“…A fall in IGR due to increase in glucagon and reduction in insulin levels is observed with SGLT2i treatment. [4647] For maladaptive anabolism, therefore, SGLT2i are the preferred choice of treatment. However, SGLT2i can also be used in “eubolic” patients.…”

“…Essentially, the SGLT2 inhibited state is akin to a modest carbohydrate-restricted mimetic. Noteworthy, the SGLT2 inhibited state has also been discussed in the context of a ketogenic diet [49,50] and our current and previous data demonstrate greater reliance on fat oxidation at rest and during exercise [24]. We surmised that low carbohydrate absorption may be "sensed" and eventually lead to adaptation manifested as changes in eating behavior.…”

“…A dapa-, cana-és empagliflozinnal végzett fázis 2. és 3. vizsgálatok metaanalízisei során a kardiovaszkuláris rizikó csökkenésére gyakorolt hatások igencsak eltérő mértéke további óvatosságra int a vélt csoporthatás megítélésében. 27,29 Megemlítendő, hogy a minor amputációkkal kapcsolatos felhívást a hatóság az alkalmazási előírások között a canagliflozinra tekintettel írta elő, ami az SGLT-2-gátlók indikálása és alkalmazása esetén rendszeres lábvizsgálatot és korrekt betegtájékoztatást jelent.…”
