11ß-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11ß-HSD1) has been proposed as a new target for type 2 diabetes drugs. The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of inhibition of 11ß-HSD1 on blood glucose levels, glucose tolerance, and insulin sensitivity in mouse models of type 2 diabetes. BVT.2733 is an isoform-selective inhibitor of mouse 11ß-HSD1. Hyperglycemic and hyperinsulinemic ob/ob, db/db, KKAy, and normal C57BL/6J mice were orally administered BVT.2733 (200 mg/kg·d, twice daily). In hyperglycemic, but not in normal mice, BVT.2733 lowered circulating glucose (to 5088% of control) and insulin (5265%) levels. In oral glucose tolerance tests in ob/ob and KKAy mice, glucose concentrations were 6575% of vehicle values after BVT.2733 treatment, and in KKAy mice insulin concentrations were decreased (6274%). Euglycemic, hyperinsulinemic clamps demonstrated decreased endogenous glucose production (2161%). Analysis of hepatic mRNA in KKAy mice showed reduced phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase mRNA (71%). A slight reduction in food intake was observed in ob/ob and KKAy mice. Cholesterol, triglycerides, and free fatty acid levels were decreased to 8186% in KKAy mice after a 4-h fast. The results support previous suggestions that selective 11ß-HSD1 inhibitors lower blood glucose levels and improve insulin sensitivity in different mouse models of type 2 diabetes.
