Summary

This study explores the long-term effects of dapagliflozin and empagliflozin on CYP8B1 gene expression and a range of metabolic, oxidative, and inflammatory biomarkers in obese patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Over a 6-month period, participants are assigned to three treatment arms: metformin (control), dapagliflozin, and empagliflozin. The study aims to determine how these medications influence bile acid metabolism, oxidative stress, leptin, GLP-1, IL-10, and IFN-γ, providing insight into the broader metabolic benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors
