Insulin secretagogues for prevention or delay of type 2 diabetes mellitus and its associated complications in persons at increased risk for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The projected rise in the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) could develop into a substantial health problem worldwide. Whether insulin secretagogues (sulphonylureas and meglitinide analogues) are able to prevent or delay T2DM and its associated complications in people at risk for the development of T2DM is unknown.. To assess the effects of insulin secretagogues on the prevention or delay of T2DM and its associated complications in people with impaired glucose tolerance, impaired fasting blood glucose, moderately elevated glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) or any combination of these.. We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, PubMed, Embase, ClinicalTrials.gov, the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, and the reference lists of systematic reviews, articles and health technology assessment reports. We asked investigators of the included trials for information about additional trials. The date of the last search of all databases was April 2016.. We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) with a duration of 12 weeks or more comparing insulin secretagogues with any pharmacological glucose-lowering intervention, behaviour-changing intervention, placebo or no intervention in people with impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance, moderately elevated HbA1c or combinations of these.. Two review authors read all abstracts and full-text articles/records, assessed quality and extracted outcome data independently. One review author extracted data which were checked by a second review author. We resolved discrepancies by consensus or the involvement of a third review author. For meta-analyses we used a random-effects model with investigation of risk ratios (RRs) for dichotomous outcomes and mean differences (MDs) for continuous outcomes, using 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for effect estimates. We carried out trial sequential analyses (TSAs) for all outcomes that could be meta-analysed. We assessed the overall quality of the evidence by using the GRADE instrument.. We included six RCTs with 10,018 participants; 4791 participants with data on allocation to intervention groups were randomised to a second- or third-generation sulphonylurea or a meglitinide analogue as monotherapy and 29 participants were randomised to a second-generation sulphonylurea plus metformin. Three trials investigated a second-generation sulphonylurea, two trials investigated a third-generation sulphonylurea and one trial a meglitinide analogue. A total of 4873 participants with data on allocation to control groups were randomised to a comparator group; 4820 participants were randomised to placebo, 23 to diet and exercise, and 30 participants to metformin monotherapy. One RCT of nateglinide contributed 95% of all participants. The duration of the intervention varied from six months to five years. We judged none of the included trials as at low risk of bias for all 'Risk of bias' domains.All-cause and cardiovascular mortality following sulphonylurea (glimepiride) treatment were rarely observed (very low-quality evidence). The RR for incidence of T2DM comparing glimepiride monotherapy with placebo was 0.75; 95% CI 0.54 to 1.04; P = 0.08; 2 trials; 307 participants; very low-quality evidence. One of the trials reporting on the incidence of T2DM did not define the diagnostic criteria used. The other trial diagnosed T2DM as two consecutive fasting blood glucose values ≥ 6.1 mmol/L. TSA showed that only 4.5% of the diversity-adjusted required information size was accrued so far. No trial reported data on serious adverse events, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), non-fatal stroke, congestive heart failure (HF), health-related quality of life or socioeconomic effects.One trial with a follow-up of five years compared a meglitinide analogue (nateglinide) with placebo. A total of 310/4645 (6.7%) participants allocated to nateglinide died compared with 312/4661 (6.7%) participants allocated to placebo (hazard ratio (HR) 1.00; 95% CI 0.85 to 1.17; P = 0.98; moderate-quality evidence). The two main criteria for diagnosing T2DM were a fasting plasma glucose level ≥ 7.0 mmol/L or a 2-hour post challenge glucose ≥ 11.1 mmol/L. T2DM developed in 1674/4645 (36.0%) participants in the nateglinide group and in 1580/4661 (33.9%) in the placebo group (HR 1.07; 95% CI 1.00 to 1.15; P = 0.05; moderate-quality evidence). One or more serious adverse event was reported in 2066/4602 (44.9%) participants allocated to nateglinide compared with 2089/4599 (45.6%) participan. There is insufficient evidence to demonstrate whether insulin secretagogues compared mainly with placebo reduce the risk of developing T2DM and its associated complications in people at increased risk for the development of T2DM. Most trials did not investigate patient-important outcomes.

Variations in tissue selectivity amongst insulin secretagogues: a systematic review.
Insulin secretagogues promote insulin release by binding to sulfonylurea receptors on pancreatic β-cells (SUR1). However, these drugs also bind to receptor isoforms on cardiac myocytes (SUR2A) and vascular smooth muscle (SUR2B). Binding to SUR2A/SUR2B may inhibit ischaemic preconditioning, an endogenous protective mechanism enabling cardiac tissue to survive periods of ischaemia. This study was designed to identify insulin secretagogues that selectively bind to SUR1 when given at therapeutic doses.. Using accepted systematic review methods, three electronic databases were searched from inception to 13 June 2011. Original studies measuring the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) for an insulin secretagogue on K(ATP) channels using standard electrophysiological techniques were included. Steady-state concentrations (C(SS)) were estimated from the usual oral dose and clearance values for each drug.. Data were extracted from 27 studies meeting all inclusion criteria. IC(50) values for SUR1 were below those for SUR2A/SUR2B for all insulin secretagogues and addition of C(SS) values identified three distinct patterns. The C(SS) for gliclazide, glipizide, mitiglinide and nateglinide lie between IC(50) values for SUR1 and SUR2A/SUR2B, suggesting that these drugs bind selectively to pancreatic receptors. The C(SS) for glimepiride and glyburide (glibenclamide) was above IC(50) values for all three isoforms, suggesting these drugs are non-selective. Tolbutamide and repaglinide may have partial pancreatic receptor selectivity because IC(50) values for SUR1 and SUR2A/SUR2B overlapped somewhat, with the C(SS) in the midst of these values.. Insulin secretagogues display different tissue selectivity characteristics at therapeutic doses. This may translate into different levels of cardiovascular risk.

A Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Drug-Drug Interaction Study of Tofogliflozin (a New SGLT2 Inhibitor) and Selected Anti-Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Drugs.
Tofogliflozin is an oral hypoglycemic agent with a novel mechanism of action that reduces blood glucose levels by promoting glucose excretion in urine, achieved by selectively inhibiting sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2). We evaluated the effects of several selected anti-type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) drugs-glimepiride, metformin, sitagliptin, pioglitazone, miglitol, nateglinide, and voglibose-on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of tofogliflozin, and the effects of tofogliflozin on the pharmacokinetics of these anti-T2DM drugs in healthy male volunteers.. A single dose of either tofogliflozin alone, one of the anti-T2DM drugs alone, or co-administration of tofogliflozin and the anti-T2DM drug was administered to 108 healthy men. Cmax, AUCinf, and cumulative urine glucose excretion after co-administration of tofogliflozin and each of the anti-T2DM drugs was evaluated relative to the values of those parameters after administration of each drug alone.. None of the anti-T2DM drugs had any effect on tofogliflozin exposure. Tofogliflozin had no or little effect on the exposure of any anti-T2DM drug. No anti-T2DM drug had any major effect on the cumulative urine glucose excretion induced by tofogliflozin. There were no safety concerns evident after administration of any drug alone or in co-administration.. Neither the pharmacokinetics nor the pharmacodynamics of tofogliflozin was affected by any of the anti-T2DM drugs evaluated in this study, nor was the pharmacokinetics of any of the anti-T2DM drugs affected by tofogliflozin in healthy male volunteers.

Effects of pioglitazone versus glimepiride exposure on hepatocellular fat content in type 2 diabetes.
Thiazoledinediones decrease blood glucose by their insulin-sensitizing properties. Here, we examined whether pioglitazone plus nateglinide (PIO) interferes with hepatocellular lipid (HCL) content and/or improves insulin sensitivity in well-controlled non-obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).. Sixteen patients [body mass index (BMI): 28 ± 1 kg/m(2) ; HbA1c: 7.1 ± 0.6%] were studied in a randomized, double-blind, 12-week parallel group trial, whereas matched healthy humans [non-diabetic control subjects (CON), BMI: 26 ± 1 kg/m(2)] were studied once. Treatment with pioglitazone (30 mg/day) plus nateglinide (PIO arm) to control for glimepiride-induced insulin secretion was compared to treatment with glimepiride (2 mg/day) plus placebo (GLI arm). Multinuclei magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) was combined with pancreatic normoglycaemic-two-step-insulin clamps and stable isotopes to assess glucose turnover, glucose transport/phosphorylation, HCL and intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) contents, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and adipokines.. At baseline, HCL was approximately 5.6-fold higher in T2DM (p < 0.05 vs. CON). This was paralleled by approximately doubled leptin : adiponectin ratios (p < 0.05). HCL decreased by approximately 39% (p < 0.05) after PIO and only tended to decrease after GLI (p = 0.12). Treatment with PIO did not affect leptin : adiponectin ratios, but slightly improved (p < 0.05) insulin-mediated NEFA suppression, which related to lower HCL. PIO further prevented the insulin-induced increase in IMCL content of soleus and tibialis anterior muscles. Peripheral and hepatic insulin sensitivity, glucose transport and glycaemic control did not change in both groups.. Short-term, low-dose thiazolidendione treatment improves insulin sensitivity of lipolysis and HCL, without affecting muscle and liver insulin sensitivity. It appears that metabolic PIO action in T2DM is primarily mediated via a decline in HCL associated with greater sensitivity of lipolysis to insulin.

Analysis of Hypoglycemic Drugs by Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry.
A rapid and simple method to measure oral hypoglycemic agents is essential in the evaluation of a patient with spontaneous hypoglycemia. As a result, a robust high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for the qualitative detection of first-generation sulfonylureas (e.g., chlorpropamide, tolazamide, and tolbutamide), second-generation sulfonylureas (e.g., glimepiride, glipizide, and glyburide), meglitinides (e.g., repaglinide, nateglinide), and thiazolidinediones (e.g., rosiglitazone and pioglitazone). HPLC involved a C8 column and MS/MS was used in electrospray ionization (ESI) positive mode. Identification of all compounds was made using various multiple-reaction monitoring (MRMs). Isotopic labeled chlorpropamide-d4, glimepiride-d5, glyburide-d11, nateglinide-d5, repaglinide-ethyl-d5, rosiglitazone-d3, and zomepirac were used as the internal standards. The cutoffs for each drug were as follows: chlorpropamide 100 ng/mL, tolazamide 50 ng/mL, tolbutamide 20 ng/mL, glimepiride 20 ng/mL, glipizide 5 ng/mL, glyburide 5 ng/mL, repaglinide 5 ng/mL, rosiglitazone 20 ng/mL, pioglitazone 20 ng/mL, and nateglinide 5 ng/mL.

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors Used Concomitantly with Insulin Secretagogues and the Risk of Serious Hypoglycemia.
Serious hypoglycemia is a major adverse event associated with insulin secretagogues. Previous studies have suggested a potential relationship between angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) used with sulfonylureas and serious hypoglycemia, and widely used drug compendia warn of this potential drug-drug interaction. We investigated the association between serious hypoglycemia and concomitant use of ACEIs in patients receiving insulin secretagogues, using the self-controlled case series design and Medicaid claims data from 5 US states linked to Medicare claims from 1999-2011. The exposure of interest was active prescription for ACEIs during insulin secretagogue or metformin (negative control object drug) episodes. The outcome was hospital presentation for serious hypoglycemia, identified by discharge diagnosis codes in inpatient and emergency department claims (positive predictive value ~ 78-89%). We calculated confounder-adjusted rate ratios (RRs) and 95% confidence internals (CIs) of outcome occurrence during ACEI-exposed vs. ACEI-unexposed time using conditional Poisson regression. The RRs for ACEIs were not statistically elevated during observation time of glipizide (RR, 1.06; CI, 0.98-1.15), glyburide (RR, 1.05; CI, 0.96-1.15), repaglinide (RR, 1.15; CI, 0.94-1.41), or metformin (RR, 1.02; CI, 0.97-1.06); but was modestly elevated with glimepiride (RR, 1.23; CI, 1.11-1.37) and modestly reduced with nateglinide (RR, 0.73; CI, 0.56-0.96). The overall pattern of results do not suggest that ACEIs used with insulin secretagogues were associated with increased rates of serious hypoglycemia, with the possible exception of glimepiride.

Biomedical Informatics Approaches to Identifying Drug-Drug Interactions: Application to Insulin Secretagogues.
Drug-drug interactions with insulin secretagogues are associated with increased risk of serious hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes. We aimed to systematically screen for drugs that interact with the five most commonly used secretagogues-glipizide, glyburide, glimepiride, repaglinide, and nateglinide-to cause serious hypoglycemia.. We screened 400 drugs frequently coprescribed with the secretagogues as candidate interacting precipitants. We first predicted the drug-drug interaction potential based on the pharmacokinetics of each secretagogue-precipitant pair. We then performed pharmacoepidemiologic screening for each secretagogue of interest, and for metformin as a negative control, using an administrative claims database and the self-controlled case series design. The overall rate ratios (RRs) and those for four predefined risk periods were estimated using Poisson regression. The RRs were adjusted for multiple estimation using semi-Bayes method, and then adjusted for metformin results to distinguish native effects of the precipitant from a drug-drug interaction.. We predicted 34 pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions with the secretagogues, nine moderate and 25 weak. There were 140 and 61 secretagogue-precipitant pairs associated with increased rates of serious hypoglycemia before and after the metformin adjustment, respectively. The results from pharmacokinetic prediction correlated poorly with those from pharmacoepidemiologic screening.. The self-controlled case series design has the potential to be widely applicable to screening for drug-drug interactions that lead to adverse outcomes identifiable in healthcare databases. Coupling pharmacokinetic prediction with pharmacoepidemiologic screening did not notably improve the ability to identify drug-drug interactions in this case.

Pharmacogenomic analysis of ATP-sensitive potassium channels coexpressing the common type 2 diabetes risk variants E23K and S1369A.
The common ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel variants E23K and S1369A, found in the KCNJ11 and ABCC8 genes, respectively, form a haplotype that is associated with an increased risk for type 2 diabetes. Our previous studies showed that KATP channel inhibition by the A-site sulfonylurea gliclazide was increased in the K23/A1369 haplotype. Therefore, we studied the pharmacogenomics of seven clinically used sulfonylureas and glinides to determine their structure-activity relationships in KATP channels containing either the E23/S1369 nonrisk or K23/A1369 risk haplotypes.. The patch-clamp technique was used to determine sulfonylurea and glinide inhibition of recombinant human KATP channels containing either the E23/S1369 or the K23/A1369 haplotype.. KATP channels containing the K23/A1369 risk haplotype were significantly less sensitive to inhibition by tolbutamide, chlorpropamide, and glimepiride (IC50 values for K23/A1369 vs. E23/S1369=1.15 vs. 0.71 μmol/l; 4.19 vs. 3.04 μmol/l; 4.38 vs. 2.41 nmol/l, respectively). In contrast, KATP channels containing the K23/A1369 haplotype were significantly more sensitive to inhibition by mitiglinide (IC50=9.73 vs. 28.19 nmol/l for K23/A1369 vs. E23/S1369) and gliclazide. Nateglinide, glipizide, and glibenclamide showed similar inhibitory profiles in KATP channels containing either haplotype.. Our results demonstrate that the ring-fused pyrrole moiety in several A-site drugs likely underlies the observed inhibitory potency of these drugs on KATP channels containing the K23/A1369 risk haplotype. It may therefore be possible to tailor existing therapy or design novel drugs that display an increased efficacy in type 2 diabetes patients homozygous for these common KATP channel haplotypes.

Modeling of ATP-sensitive inward rectifier potassium channel 11 and inhibition mechanism of the natural ligand, ellagic acid, using molecular docking.
Diabetes mellitus is a disorder in which blood sugar (glucose) levels are abnormally high because the body does not produce enough insulin to meet its needs. Post-prandial hyperglycemia (PPHG) is an independent risk factor for the development of macro vascular complications. It is now recognized that normalizing post-prandial blood glucose is more difficult than normalizing fasting glucose. Potassium channels are the most widely distributed type of ion channel and are found in virtually all living organisms. The function of KATP channels is best understood in pancreatic beta cells, the membrane potential of which is responsive to external glucose concentration. Beta cells show a remarkably complex electrical bursting behavior in response to an increase in glucose level. Nateglinide and Glimepiride are a class of insulin secretagog agents that lowers blood glucose levels by stimulating insulin secretion from the pancreas. These compounds interact with the ATP-sensitive potassium (K+ATP) channel in pancreatic beta cells. However, the side effects of these drugs overpass their uses, and the need to identify compounds with less adverse effects is exigent. In our research study, we used the natural compound ellagic acid, which is an already proven anti-carcinogen, anti-mutagen, and anticancer initiator, for its anti-diabetic activity in comparison to the two commercial drugs (Nateglinide and Glimepiride). The drugs and the compounds were docked to the ATP-dependent potassium channel and their energy value showed that the compound had higher binding value than the commercial drugs. Then an ADME/Tox analysis for the compound was carried out which showed that ellagic can be a possible lead molecule.

Effect of glimepiride and nateglinide on serum insulin and glucose concentration in healthy cats.
Glimepiride and nateglinide are two common oral hypoglycemic agents currently being used with humans suffering from Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Neither drug has been tested with cats thus far and it is currently unknown whether either of these drugs exert any effect in cats or not. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of glimepiride and nateglinide on glucose and insulin responses in healthy control cats, in order to determine their potential use in diabetic cats. The intravenous glucose tolerance tests was carried out since it is an excellent test for evaluating pancreatic beta-cell function for insulin secretion. Alterations in the insulin secretion pattern can be perceived as the earliest sign of beta-cell dysfunction in many species, including cats. Nateglinide demonstrated a quick action/short duration type effect with serum glucose nadiring and insulin response peaking at 60 and 20 minutes, respectively. Alternatively, glimepiride is medium-to-long acting with serum glucose nadiring and insulin response peaking at 180 minutes and 60 minutes, respectively. Nateglinide's potency was evident allowing it to induce a 1.5-2 higher preliminary insulin peak (3.7 +/- 1.1 pg/ml) than glimepiride's (2.5 +/- 0.1 pg/ml), albeit only for a short period of time. Because glimepiride and nateglinide have a shared mode of action, no significant differences in overall glucose AUC(0-360 min) (24,435 +/- 2,940 versus 24,782 +/- 2,354 mg min/dl) and insulin AUC(0-360 min) (410 +/- 192 versus 460 +/- 159) in healthy control cats were observed. These findings may provide useful information when choosing a hypoglycemic drug suited for the treatment of diabetic cats depending on the degree of diabetes mellitus the cat is suffering from.

Differential effect of sulfonylureas on production of reactive oxygen species and apoptosis in cultured pancreatic beta-cell line, MIN6.
Sulfonylureas are considered to cause beta-cell apoptosis. However, it is unclear how this occurs and whether there is a difference in such effects among various sulfonylureas. Here, we examined the effects of various sulfonylureas and a short-acting insulin secretagogue, nateglinide, on oxidative stress and apoptosis using the beta-cell line MIN6. After cultured MIN6 cells were exposed to various concentrations of sulfonylureas (glibenclamide, glimepiride, and gliclazide) or nateglinide, intracellular production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was evaluated by staining with 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate. The effect of these agents on apoptosis was also evaluated by the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate-biotin nick-end labeling technique. Exposure of beta-cells to glibenclamide, glimepiride, and nateglinide significantly increased intracellular ROS production in a concentration-dependent manner (0.1-10 micromol/L). These effects were completely blocked by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate [NAD(P)H] oxidase inhibitors (diphenylene iodonium or apocynin) or a protein kinase C inhibitor (calphostin C). After exposure to these agents for 48 hours, the numbers of apoptotic cells were also significantly increased. These effects were significantly blocked by apocynin and antioxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine. In contrast, exposure to any concentrations of gliclazide did not affect either intracellular ROS production or the numbers of apoptotic cells. Sulfonylureas (glibenclamide and glimepiride, but not gliclazide) and nateglinide stimulated ROS production via protein kinase C-dependent activation of NAD(P)H oxidase and consequently caused beta-cell apoptosis in vitro. Because of the lack of such adverse effects, gliclazide may have a benefit in the preservation of functional beta-cell mass.

Effects of mitiglinide on glucose-induced insulin release into the portal vein and fat-induced triglyceride elevation in prediabetic and diabetic OLETF rats.
The effect of single-dose mitiglinide on glucose and lipid metabolism was examined in OLETF rats with spontaneous type 2 diabetes in which the early insulin response following glucose challenge is known to diminish over time and become lost with aging.. (1) With catheters inserted into the portal veins, 12-wk-old prediabetic OLETF rats were given an OGTT of 1 g/kg after 17 h of fasting. Eight rats each were orally given mitiglinide 1 mg/kg, nateglinide 50 mg/kg, or glibenclamide 1 mg/kg, vs 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) as control, and were given an OGTT immediately afterward. Following oral administration of mitiglinide, nateglinide, glibenclamide, or 0.5% CMC, the 24-wk-old overt-diabetic OLETF rats were immediately given an OGTT of 1g/kg. (2) After 17 h of fasting, 24-wk-old OLETF rats were subjected to a fat-loading test. Eight rats each were given mitiglinide 3 mg/kg, glibenclamide 1 mg/kg, or glimepiride 1 mg/kg, vs 0.5% CMC, and were given soy oil 2 g/kg immediately afterward. They were also given mitiglinide orally and examined for LPL mRNA expression in their adipose tissue.. (1) After OGTT, mitiglinide produced a significant increase in portal insulin levels 15 min after its administration, as well as a significant decrease in peripheral glucose levels 15-120 min after its administration in the OLETF rats. Likewise, nateglinide produced an increase in portal insulin levels and a decrease in peripheral glucose levels shortly after its administration in these rats. Glibenclamide increased portal insulin levels for an extended time after its administration, and significantly decreased peripheral glucose levels in the rats 120-300 min after its administration in the rats. In contrast, as in the 12-wk-old rats, a precipitous rise in insulin secretion was seen in the portal vein of 24-wk-old rats given mitiglinide, which peaked 15 min after mitiglinide administration, but the insulin levels continued to increase for 120 min or longer in the 24-wk-old rats given glibenclamide. In addition, as in the 12-wk-old rats, a significant decrease in glucose levels in peripheral blood was noted 30 and 60 min after mitiglinide administration and 300 min after glibenclamide administration in the 24-wk-old rats. (2) Mitiglinide increased LPL mRNA expression 120 min after its administration, and significantly decreased peripheral TG and chylomicron- TG levels after fat challenge in the 24-wk-old OLETF rats.. Mitiglinide exhibited fast-onset and short-acting insulin-secretagogic effects, inhibiting post-glucose challenge increases in glucose levels and post-fat challenge increases in TG levels.

Interaction of nateglinide with K(ATP) channel in beta-cells underlies its unique insulinotropic action.
Nateglinide is a novel insulinotropic agent for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It is a D-phenylalanine derivative, chemically distinct from repaglinide and sulphonylureas (glyburide or glimepiride). Although each agent is known to stimulate insulin release via the signaling cascade initiated by closure of ATP-dependent K+ (K(ATP)) channels in pancreatic beta-cells, the pharmacological effect of nateglinide is reportedly fast-acting, short-lasting, sensitive to ambient glucose and more resistant to metabolic inhibition. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the molecular mechanism(s) underlying the distinct properties of the insulinotropic action of nateglinide. By using the patch-clamp methods, we comparatively characterized the potency and kinetics of the effect of these agents on K(ATP) channels in rat beta-cells at normal vs. elevated glucose and under physiological condition vs. experimentally induced metabolic inhibition. Our results demonstrated that the mode of the action of nateglinide on K(ATP) current was unique in (a) glucose dependency; (b) increased potency and efficacy under ATP depletion and uncoupling of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation than physiological condition; (c) substantially more rapid onset and offset kinetics. The data provide mechanistic rationale for the unique in vivo and ex vivo activity profile of nateglinide and may contribute to reduced hypoglycemic potential associated with excessive insulin secretion.

Conformational analysis of non-sulfonylurea hypoglycemic agents of the meglitinide family.
Non-sulfonylurea hypoglycemic agents of the meglitinide family such as S3075, repaglinide, KAD-1229, and A-4166, were found to display a comparable U-shaped conformation by molecular modelling, with hydrophobic cycles placed at the extremity of each branch and a peptidic bond placed at the bottom of the U. A comparable conformation was observed with the hypoglycemic sulfonylureas glibenclamide and glimepiride. A different conformation with a greater distance between the hydrophobic cycles at the extremity of each branch was found, however, with the biologically inactive enantiomers of A-4166 and repaglinide and the poorly efficient insulinotropic agent meglitinide. The identification of a common conformation of these hypoglycemic agents may help in the design of highly active compounds and provide an imprint of their postulated target receptor on the pancreatic B-cell plasma membrane.
