Abstract

We systematically reviewed the literature regarding the impact of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) on vascular function, including endothelial function and arterial stiffness, as predictors of atherosclerosis progression and cardiovascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We searched PubMed in order to identify clinical trials that investigated the effect of DPP-4i on vascular function in patients with T2DM when compared with placebo. Although 168 articles were initially found, only 6 studies (total 324 patients) investigated the effect of DPP-4i in comparison with placebo, specifically linagliptin and sitagliptin, and satisfied the inclusion criteria. There are scarce data to indicate that linagliptin may enhance endothelial function and exert a slight beneficial effect on arterial wall properties. Sitagliptin seems to have a neutral effect on these variables. Further trials are needed to elucidate the topic. The standards of reporting were in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines.

Keywords: Type 2 diabetes mellitus, DPP-4 inhibitors, endothelial function, arterial stiffness, cardiovascular health, molecular cardiology.
