Acarbose, an -Glucosidase Inhibitor, Attenuates Postprandial Hypotension in Autonomic Failure
Postprandial hypotension is an important clinical condition that predisposes to syncope, falls, angina, and cerebrovascular events. The magnitude of the fall in blood pressure after meals depends on enteric glucose availability. We hypothesized that acarbose, an -glucosidase inhibitor that decreases glucose absorption in the small intestine, would attenuate postprandial hypotension. Acarbose or...
متن کاملProduction of α - Glucosidase Inhibitor by β - Glucosidase Inhibitor - Producing
A soil microorganism producing αand β-glucosidase inhibitors was identified as Bacillus lentimorbus, based on the fatty acid and morphological analyses, along with biochemical and physiological tests. The α-glucosidase inhibitor was highly produced by this strain in a culture medium containing 0.25% of sodium glutamate and 0.5% of glucose, pH 8.0 at 30C for 2 days. The α-glucosidase inhibitor f...
متن کاملΑ-glucosidase inhibitor isolated from coffee.
The potent α-glucosidase inhibitor (compound I) was isolated from coffee brews by the activity-based fractionation and identified as a β-carboline alkaloid norharman (9H-pyrido[ 3.4-b]indole) on the basis of mass spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra ((1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, and COSY). The norharman showed a potent inhibition against α-glucosidase enzyme in a concentration dependent ...
متن کاملAnalysis of the add-on effect of α-glucosidase inhibitor, acarbose in insulin therapy: A pilot study.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the add-on effect of acarbose therapy in oxidative stress, and the lipid and inflammatory profiles of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) treated with insulin. This was an open and unblended study. Patients (n=134) with T2DM (haemoglobin A1c range, 9.0-12.0%) were recruited. After continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion for 7 days for init...
متن کاملVoglibose: An Alpha Glucosidase Inhibitor
keywords: Postprandial hyperglycaemia (PPHG), Alpha glucosidase inhibitors (αGI) ABSTRACT Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a morbid disease worldwide, with increasing incidence as time passes. It has macro-vascular and micro-vascular complications. The main cause of these complications is poorly controlled postprandial hyperglycaemia. Alpha glucosidase inhibitors, namely acarbose, voglibose and miglit...
