Biochem/physiol Actions

AMP-deoxynojirimycin (AMP-DNM) is an orally available iminosugar that acts as a reversible, potent and selective inhibitor against the non-lysosomal glucosylceramidase GBA2 (IC50 = 1.7 nM) over the glucosylceramide synthase (GCS, UGCG), ER alpha-glucosidases, the lysosomal glucocerebrosidase GBA (IC50 = 0.16 μM) and alpha-glucosidase GAA (IC50 = 0.87 μM). AMP-DNM selectively inhibits cellular GBA2 in cultures (GBA2/GBA IC50 = 0.3 nM/100 nM; human melanoma cells) and exhibits in vivo therapeutic efficacy in murine models of obesity (100 mg/kg/day p.o.) and colitis (10-50 mg/kg/day via i.p. or 1.25-6.25g/kg chow).
