Ro 28-1675

A cell-permeable thiazolyl-propanamide compound that acts as a glucokinase (GK) activator by increasing Vmax and decreasing [S]1/2 of GK-catalyzed reaction as well as freeing GK from the inhibitory action of GK regulatory protein (GKRP), resulting in increased. Induces GK nuclear-to-cytosol translocation in primary rat hepatocytes and reduces glucose concentration for insulin secretion stimulation from isolated rat pancreatic islets (threshold [glucose] = 3 mM vs 6 mM with or without 3 µM Ro-28-1675). Exhibits in vivo glucose-lowering and insulin-releasing activity in non-diabetic C57BL/6 mice and Wistar rats and is efficacious in several murine and rodent type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) models (10 to 50 mg/kg via p.o.). Does not affect hexokinase I or II activity.
