Summary of the literature review results (animal models and cell lines)

Author Year Country Aim Methodology Sample size Subjects Antipsychotics Duration Key findings
Shamshoum et al. [30] 2021 Canada To review the peripheral mechanisms of acute olanzapine-induced related metabolic disturbances Narrative review Clozapine and olanzapine Preclinical in vivo studies in this review revealed gender-specific changes in glucose metabolism in response to Aps
Ren et al. [28] 2019 China To investigate olanzapine-induced insulin-desensitivity in the liver Animal study Rats Olanzapine IRS/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway mediates olanzapine-induced hepatic insulin resistance in male rats
Nagata et al. [41] 2018 Japan To clarify the mechanism of clozapine-induced acute hyperglycemia Animal study Wistar rat Clozapine Single clozapine administration raised rat serum glucose levels
Liu et al. [31] 2017 Australia To evaluate the longitudinal changes in glucose-lipid homeostasis after SGA use for 9 weeks in rats Animal study Rat Clozapine and olanzapine SGA-induced glucose-lipid metabolic disturbances may occur independently of weight gain, potentially via liver SREBP/ChREBP activation
Castellani et al. [43] 2017 Canada To investigate glucagon’s role in mediating olanzapine-induced blood glucose increase Animal study WT mice, Gcgr-/- mice Olanzapine Central role of the liver in mediating olanzapine-induced disturbances in glucose homeostasis
Mondelli et al. [29] 2013 UK To find the molecular pathways of haloperidol- and olanzapine-induced metabolic abnormalities Animal study Sprague-Dawley rat Olanzapine and haloperidol Different molecular pathways mediate glucose homeostasis disturbances induced by haloperidol and olanzapine, with olanzapine directly affecting the insulin pathway
Panariello et al. [33] 2012 Italy To investigate the effect of clozapine on insulin action by analyzing insulin signaling in vitro and in vivo Laboratory and animal study PCI2, L6 cells and C57/BL/KsJ mice Clozapine Clozapine impairs insulin signaling and glucose uptake by affecting Akt and PKC-z
Smith et al. [42] 2009 New Zealand To compare the effects of clozapine and quetiapine on the development of obesity and glucose metabolism. Animal study Sprague-Dawley rat Clozapine and quetiapine Clozapine and quetiapine impair glucose tolerance in rats independently of obesity-induced insulin resistance
Smith et al. [40] 2008 New Zealand To investigate the impact of SGAs on glucose metabolism Animal study Rat Haloperidol, quetiapine, and clozapine SGAs induce acute disruptions in glucose metabolism through increased glucagon secretion
Engl et al. [32] 2005 Austria To find pathogenesis of SGA-induced disturbance of glucose homeostasis Laboratory study L6 skeletal muscle cell Olanzapine Olanzapine reduces glycogen content in L6 cells by inhibiting insulin signaling
