SGLT-2 inhibitors as novel treatments of multiple organ fibrosis

© 2024 Published by Elsevier Ltd..

Fibrosis, a significant health issue linked to chronic inflammatory diseases, affects various organs and can lead to serious damage and loss of function. Despite the availability of some treatments, their limitations necessitate the development of new therapeutic options. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), known for their glucose-lowering ability, have shown promise in offering protective effects against fibrosis in multiple organs through glucose-independent mechanisms. This review explores the anti-fibrotic potential of SGLT2i across different tissues, providing insights into their underlying mechanisms and highlighting recent research advancements. The evidence positions SGLT2i as a potential future treatments for fibrotic diseases.
