  • Dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors are among the newest treatments against type 2 diabetes. Since some flavonoids modulate DPP4 activity, we evaluated whether grape seed-derived procyanidins (GSPEs), which are antihyperglycemic, modulate DPP4 activity and/or expression. In vitro inhibition assays showed that GSPEs inhibit pure DPP4. Chronic GSPE treatments in intestinal human cells (Caco-2) showed a decrease of DPP4 activity and gene expression. GSPE was also assayed in vivo. Intestinal but not plasmatic DPP4 activity and gene expression were decreased by GSPE in healthy and diet-induced obese animals. Healthy rats also showed glycemia improvement after oral glucose consumption but not after an intraperitoneal glucose challenge. In genetically obese rats, only DPP4 gene expression was down-regulated. Thus, procyanidin inhibition of intestinal DPP4 activity, either directly and/or via gene expression down-regulation, could be responsible for some of their effects in glucose homeostasis.
