Descrizione

General description

Glimepiride is a class II biopharmaceutical[1] second-generation sulfonylurea.

Application

Glimepiride has been used:

• as a hypoglycemic drug to test its anti-diabetic functionality in human umbilical vein cells (HUVECs)[2]
• as a sulfonylurea ATP-sensitive potassium channel (K_ATP) channel inhibitor in breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells[3]
• in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) assays of neonatal islet-like cell clusters (NICCs) to test its effect on insulin secretion[4]

Glimepiride is currently used to treat type 2 diabetes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glimepiride is a potent blocker of cardiac K_ATP channels activated by pinacidil with an IC₅₀ of 6.8 nM.

Glimepiride reduces blood glucose levels by stimulating the pancreatic β cells to secrete insulin hormone. It interacts with a 65-kD protein associated with β cells.[1]

Potent blocker of cardiac K_ATP channels.
