The sequential change from totipotency to multipotency occurs during early mammalian embryo development. However, due to the lack of cellular models to recapitulate the distinct potency of stem cells at each stage, their molecular and cellular characteristics remain ambiguous. The establishment of isogenic naïve and primed pluripotent stem cells to represent the pluripotency in the inner cell mass of the pre-implantation blastocyst and in the epiblast from the post-implantation embryo allows the understanding of the distinctive characteristics of two different states of pluripotent stem cells. This review discusses the prominent disparities between naïve and primed pluripotency, including signaling pathways, metabolism, and epigenetic status, ultimately facilitating a comprehensive understanding of their significance during early mammalian embryonic development.

Background: The novel sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor enavogliflozin effectively lowers glycosylated hemoglobin levels and body weights without the increased risk of serious adverse events; however, the long-term clinical benefits of enavogliflozin in terms of cardiovascular and renal outcomes have not been investigated. Methods: This study is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, randomized, pragmatic, open-label, active-controlled, non-inferiority trial. Eligible participants are adults (aged ≥19 years) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who have a history of, or are at risk of, cardiovascular disease. A total of 2,862 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either enavogliflozin or other SGLT2 inhibitors with proven cardiorenal benefits, such as dapagliflozin or empagliflozin. The primary endpoint is the time to the first occurrence of a composite of major adverse cardiovascular or renal events (Clinical Research Information Service registration number: KCT0009243). Conclusion This trial will determine whether enavogliflozin is non-inferior to dapagliflozin or empagliflozin in terms of cardiorenal outcomes in patients with T2DM and cardiovascular risk factors. This study will elucidate the role of enavogliflozin in preventing vascular complications in patients with T2DM.
