Glucokinase activation as antidiabetic therapy: effect of nutraceuticals and phytochemicals on glucokinase gene expression and enzymatic activity.

Abstract:

:Diabetes represents an important public health problem. Recently, new molecular targets have been identified and exploited to treat this disease. Due to its pivotal role in glucose homeostasis, glucokinase (GCK) is a promising target for the development of novel antidiabetic drugs; however, pharmacological agents that modulate GCK activity have been linked to undesirable side-effects, limiting its use. Interestingly, plants might be a valuable source of new therapeutic compounds with GCK-activating properties and presumably no adverse effects. In this review, we describe biochemical characteristics related to the physiological and pathological importance of GCK, as well as the mechanisms involved in its regulation at different molecular levels. Posteriorly, we present a compendium of findings supporting the potential use of nutraceuticals and phytochemicals in the management of diabetes through modulation of GCK expression and activity. Finally, we propose critical aspects to keep in mind when designing experiments to evaluate GCK modulation properly.

  • The effect of the new oral hypoglycemic agent A-4166 on glucose turnover in the high fat diet-induced and/or in the hereditary insulin resistance of rats.

    abstract::A-4166, a phenylalanine derivative, is a hypoglycemic agent, which has been shown to improve blood glucose levels mainly due to the rapid and short term stimulation of insulin release. Nevertheless, a possible extrapancreatic action of A-4166 has not yet been investigated. Therefore, insulin action (euglycemic hyperin...
