Biochem/physiol Actions

Nateglinide is a Kir6.2/SUR1 channel inhibitor and antidiabetic. It is selective for the SUR1 subtype, which is found on pancreatic islet cells. Nateglinide evokes KATP channel-dependent insulin secretion (50-200 μM) in the absence and presence of insulin.
Nateglinide is a short-acting insulin secretagogue useful in treating type 2 diabetes. It is an insulinotropic agent effective for postprandial hyperglycemia. Nateglinide restores prandial insulin levels in a glucose-dependent manner.

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

We offer many products related to potassium channels for your research needs.

Glucose metabolism is regulated by the opposing actions of insulin and glucagon. Insulin is released from pancreatic ß cells in response to high blood glucose levels and regulates glucose metabolism through its actions on muscle, liver, and adipose tissue.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
