Synthesis and biological activity of naturally occurring α-glucosidase inhibitors.
In addition to their clinical importance in the treatment of type II diabetes, a-glucosidase inhibitors have attracted considerable attention from the synthetic community because of their profound effect on an array of cellular processes, including N-linked glycoprotein processing and maturation, oligosaccharide metabolism, and cell–cell and cell–virus recognition. Over the past decade, a numbe...
متن کاملAnti-hyperglycemic Activity of Four Plants Extracts Effective against Alpha Glucosidase in Normal and Diabetic Rats
Background & Aims: Postprandial hyperglycemia results in the development of chronic complications. Therefore, its control is critical in the treatment of diabetes. One of the main therapeutic approaches for reducing postprandial hyperglycemia is to reduce the absorption of carbohydrates by enzyme inhibitors such as Acarbose which have already been clinically used as a medicine for diabetic pati...
متن کاملAlpha glucosidase inhibitors.
Alpha glucosidase inhibitors (AGIs) are a unique class of anti-diabetic drugs. Derived from bacteria, these oral drugs are enzyme inhibitors which do not have a pancreato -centred mechanism of action. Working to delay carbohydrate absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, they control postprandial hyperglycaemia and provide unquestioned cardiovascular benefit. Specially suited for a traditional...
متن کاملCidofovir Activity against Poxvirus Infections
Cidofovir [(S)-1-(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxypropyl)cytosine, HPMPC] is an acyclic nucleoside analog approved since 1996 for clinical use in the treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis in AIDS patients. Cidofovir (CDV) has broad-spectrum activity against DNA viruses, including herpes-, adeno-, polyoma-, papilloma- and poxviruses. Among poxviruses, cidofovir has shown in vitro activity ag...
متن کاملPotent HIV fusion inhibitors against Enfuvirtide-resistant HIV-1 strains.
T20 (generic name: Enfuvirtide, brand name: Fuzeon) is the only FDA-approved HIV fusion inhibitor that is being used for treatment of HIV/AIDS patients who have failed to respond to current antiretroviral drugs. However, it rapidly induces drug resistance in vitro and in vivo. On the basis of the structural and functional information of anti-HIV peptides from a previous study, we designed an HI...
