sulfonylurea class

Gliclazide (SE1702), an oral antihyperglycemic agent, belongs to the sulfonylurea class of insulin secretagogues, which act by stimulating beta-cells of the pancreas to release insulin.

Glipizide (CP 28720) is a short-acting, second-generation sulfonylurea with hypoglycemic activity.

Torsemide (AC-4464) is an anilinopyridine sulfonylurea belonging to the class of loop diuretics. Torsemide has a prolonged duration of action compared to other loop diuretics, is extensively protein bound in plasma and has a relatively long half-life.

Gliclazide-d7 is a deuterated compound of Gliclazide. Gliclazide has a CAS number of 21187-98-4. Gliclazide, an oral antihyperglycemic agent, belongs to the sulfonylurea class of insulin secretagogues, which act by stimulating beta-cells of the pancreas to release insulin.

Gliclazide-d4 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of gliclazide by GC- or LC-MS. Gliclazide is a sulfonylurea and an inhibitor of pancreatic β-cell ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels. It is selective for pancreatic β-cell over cardiac and arterial smooth muscle cell KATP channels. Gliclazide (5 μM) increases insulin-induced glucose uptake and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation to the plasma membrane in a differentiated 3T3L1 adipocyte model of insulin resistance induced by hydrogen peroxide. Gliclazide (5 and 10 μg/ml) reduces LDL oxidation by human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs), decreasing TBARS content and 8-isoprostane levels. It also decreases oxidized LDL-induced HASMC proliferation and monocyte adhesion when used at concentrations ranging from 1 to 10 μg/ml. Gliclazide (5 mg/kg) reduces serum glucose levels and increases glucose uptake by isolated rat hindquarters in a model of diabetes induced by streptozotocin (STZ).
