Figure 7. Schematic representation illustrates the involvements of DPP-4 inhibitors and its related components in NGF-related sympathetic innervation in postinfarcted rats.

Figure 7

Sitagliptin attenuates resistin production through GIP activation. Thereby, resistin inhibits PI3K activation and subsequent Akt phosphorylation, which attenuates NGF expression. Inhibition of these signalling pathways is indicated by the vertical lines.
