General description

3-O-Methyl-D-glucopyranose is a passive carrier-mediated transported glucose analogue.

Application

Varying concentrations of 3-O-methyl-D-glucopyranose were used to measure responses of jejunal and ileal short circuit currents to determine maximal transport capacity and carrier affinity in a study to assess intestinal glucose transport in rats with diabetes mellitus. It has also been used in a study to investigate nonmetabolizable glucose analogues and ornithine decarboxylase expression in LLC-PK1 cells.
