Dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 (DPP‐4) inhibitors could have antiatherosclerotic action, in addition to antihyperglycemic roles. Because macrophage foam cells are key components of atherosclerosis, we investigated the effect of the DPP‐4 inhibitor teneligliptin on foam cell formation and its related gene expression levels in macrophages extracted from diabeticdb/db(C57BLKS/J Iar -+Leprdb/+Leprdb) mice and type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients ex vivo. We incubated mouse peritoneal macrophages and human monocyte‐derived macrophages differentiated by 7‐day culture with oxidized low‐density lipoprotein in the presence/absence of teneligliptin (10 nmol/L) for 18 hours. We observed remarkable suppression of foam cell formation by teneligliptin treatmentex vivoin macrophages isolated from diabeticdb/dbmice (32%) and T2D patients (38%); this effect was accompanied by a reduction of CD36 (db/dbmice, 43%; T2D patients, 46%) and acyl‐coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase‐1 (ACAT‐1) gene expression levels (db/dbmice, 47%; T2D patients, 45%). Molecular mechanisms underlying this effect are associated with downregulation of CD36 and ACAT‐1 by teneligliptin. The suppressive effect of a DPP‐4 inhibitor on foam cell formation in T2D is conserved across species and is worth studying to elucidate its potential as an intervention for antiatherogenesis in T2D patients.
