Kinetic and functional characterization of 1,4-dideoxy-1, 4-imino-d-arabinitol: a potent inhibitor of glycogen phosphorylase with anti-hyperglyceamic effect in ob/ob mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effects of 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-d-arabinitol (DAB) were investigated on preparations of glycogen phosphorylase (GP) and in C57BL6J (ob/ob) mice by (13)C NMR in vivo. Independent of the phosphorylation state or the mammalian species or tissue from which GP was derived, DAB inhibited GP with

Pharmacokinetics and anti-hyperglycaemic efficacy of a novel inhibitor of glycogen phosphorylase, 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-d- arabinitol, in glucagon-challenged rats and dogs and in diabetic ob/ob mice.

OBJECTIVE To further characterize the properties of 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-d-arabinitol (DAB), a recently described novel and potent inhibitor of glycogen phosphorylase and potential anti-diabetic agent, we have determined its pharmacokinetic properties in rats, dogs and mice and compared these to

Structure proof and synthesis of kotalanol and de-O-sulfonated kotalanol, glycosidase inhibitors isolated from an herbal remedy for the treatment of type-2 diabetes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Kotalanol and de-O-sulfonated-kotalanol are the most active principles in the aqueous extracts of Salacia reticulata which are traditionally used in India, Sri Lanka, and Thailand for the treatment of diabetes. We report here the exact stereochemical structures of these two compounds by synthesis

Evidence against glycogen cycling of gluconeogenic substrates in various liver preparations.

The effect of inhibition of glycogen phosphorylase by 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-d-arabinitol on rates of gluconeogenesis, gluconeogenic deposition into glycogen, and glycogen recycling was investigated in primary cultured hepatocytes, in perfused rat liver, and in fed or fasted rats in vivo clamped at

Naturally occurring sulfonium-ion glucosidase inhibitors and their derivatives: a promising class of potential antidiabetic agents.

Only registered users can translate articles

In humans, four different enzymes mediate the digestion of ingested carbohydrates. First salivary and pancreatic α-amylases, the two endoacting retaining glucosidases, break down the complex starch molecules into smaller linear maltose-oligomers (LM) and branched α-limit dextrins (αLDx). Then two

Synthesis of sulfonium sulfate analogues of disaccharides and their conversion to chain-extended homologues of salacinol: new glycosidase inhibitors.

Only registered users can translate articles

Four chain extended homologues of salacinol, a naturally occurring glycosidase inhibitor, were prepared for evaluation as inhibitors of glucosidase enzymes involved in the breakdown of carbohydrates. The syntheses involved the reactions of 1,4-anhydro-2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-4-thio-D-arabinitol with

Physiological control of liver glycogen metabolism: lessons from novel glycogen phosphorylase inhibitors.

Only registered users can translate articles

Liver glycogen is synthesized in the postprandial state in response to elevated concentrations of glucose and insulin or by activation of neuroendocrine signals and it is degraded in the postabsorptive state in response to changes in the concentrations of insulin and counter-regulatory hormones.
