Combination therapy with semaglutide and rosiglitazone as a synergistic treatment for diabetic retinopathy in rodent animals.

Abstract：

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective efficacies and potent mechanisms of combination therapy with semaglutide and rosiglitazone (RSG) on the high-glucose incubated human ARPE-19 cells and diabetic retinopathy (DR) model rats. MAIN METHODS:The CCK-8 methods were used to evaluate the protective effects of semaglutide and RSG alone or combination on the cell viability of high-glucose treated ARPE-19 cells. After the DR rat model was established, the effects of combined treatment on general indexes, retinal morphological changes, retinal Müller cells as well as PI3K/Akt/MTOR related factors of DR model rats were investigated. RESULTS:The CCK-8 assay showed obviously enhanced protective efficacies of combination therapy with semaglutide and RSG on the ARPE-19 with oxidative stress induced by high-glucose with combination index all below 1.5 demonstrating obvious synergistic effects. Combined incubation could also effectively decrease the expression of inflammatory factors, including TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and the increase of ROS content in ARPE cell culture supernatant induced by high-glucose. Combined use of the antioxidant, PI3K/Akt and mTOR inhibitors, we further demonstrated that combined incubation of semaglutide and RSG could effectively by reduce high glucose-induced inflammatory injury inhibiting ROS/PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling. Furthermore, chronic combination treatment effectively improved the histopathological characteristics and down-regulated the GFAP expression in Müller cells as well as PI3K/Akt/MTOR signaling pathway-related factors in retina which was better than any monomer treatment group. CONCLUSIONS:Combined semaglutide with RSG exhibited synergistically protective efficacies on retinal cells by decreasing the GFAP expression, inhibiting oxidative stress and PI3K/Akt/MTOR signaling-transduction in DR model rats.
