Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Linagliptin (2.5, 5, 10, and 20 mg/kg, s.c.), tested using a between-subjects design (see ), had no effect on binge-like alcohol drinking, measured on the first 4-hour session (Tuesday) of each week, in mice ( n = 16 males, 16 females). Drug (linagliptin) effect: F 1,28 = 1.90, P = 0.18; week effect: F 3,8 = 1.04, P = 0.38; sex effect: F 1,28 = 0.80, P = 0.38, drug × week interaction: F 3,84 =0.16, P = 0.93; drug × sex interaction: F 1,28 =0.05, P = 0.82; week × sex interaction: F 3,84 = 2.12, P = 0.10; drug × week × sex interaction: F 3,84 = 1.07, P = 0.37. ( B ) Linagliptin (20 mg/kg, i.p.), tested using a between-subjects design, lowered blood glucose levels following both glucose ( n = 8 males, 8 females) and glucose-plus-alcohol ( n = 8 males, 8 females) challenge tests in mice. Drug (linagliptin) effect: F 1,28 = 11.16, P = 0.002; alcohol effect: F 1,28 = 12.19, P = 0.002 (glucose alone > glucose plus alcohol); drug × alcohol interaction: F 1,28 = 0.52, P = 0.48. ( C ) Omarigliptin (10, 20 mg/kg, i.p.), tested using a within-subjects design (see ), had no effect on binge-like alcohol drinking in mice ( n = 4 males, 3 females). Drug (omarigliptin) effect: F 2,10 = 0.04, P = 0.96; sex effect: F 1, 5 = 0.51, P = 0.51; drug × sex interaction: F 2,10 = 0.52, P = 0.61. ( D ) Omarigliptin (20 mg/kg, i.p.), tested using a between-subjects design, lowered blood glucose levels following both glucose ( n = 8 males, 8 females) and glucose plus alcohol ( n = 8 males, 8 females) challenge tests in mice. Drug (omarigliptin) effect: F 1,28 = 13.99, P = 0.0008; alcohol effect: F 1,28 = 0.12, P = 0.73; drug × alcohol interaction: F 1,28 = 0.16, P = 0.69. Individual data symbols are shown in black for males and in gray for females. Data are expressed as mean (SEM). ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001.
Article Snippet: Linagliptin (Cayman Chemical) and omarigliptin (TargetMol) were prepared with 5% Tween 80 (v/v; Thermo Fisher Scientific) and 0.9% saline.
