We compared the effects of miglitol as an add-on to bolus insulin and dose-intensified bolus insulin on postprandial glycemic excursions by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). The glucose levels of 21 type 2 diabetes patients admitted for glycemic control were monitored
We recently reported that the administration of miglitol alone just before breakfast improved postprandial hyperglycemia and increased active glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) levels after lunch in men without diabetes. Miglitol and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, such as sitagliptin, enhance plasma active GLP-1

Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats, an animal model of type 2 diabetes mellitus, exhibit chronic and slowly progressive hyperglycemia with obesity. In this study, we examined whether dietary supplementation with the α-glucosidase inhibitor miglitol from the preonset stage improves

β(2) integrins (CD11s/CD18) promote the attachment of leukocytes to vascular endothelial cells. We performed in this study sucrose loading to rats with moderate postprandial hyperglycemia with/without once-daily dosing of the α-glucosidase inhibitor, miglitol, for 4 days under 4-h fasting conditions.
Conventional drugs treat diabetes by improving insulin sensitivity, increasing insulin production and/or decreasing the amount of glucose in blood. Several herbal preparations are used to treat diabetes, but their reported hypoglycemic effects are complex or even paradoxical in some cases.
