Recent Developments in Diabetes Management: Exploring Receptors, Pathways, and Compounds [PDF]
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a widespread metabolic disorder with profound effects on vital organs. Often referred to as a “systemic” or “multi-organ” disorder due to the impact on key organs, such as the kidneys, pancreas, eyes, and heart, DM is ...

Identification of the Potassium Channel Opener Site on Sulfonylurea Receptors [PDF]
Diversity of sulfonylurea receptor (SUR) subunits underlies tissue specific pharmacology of K(ATP) channels, which represent critical regulators of electrical activity in numerous cells. Notably, the neuronal/pancreatic beta-cell receptor, SUR1, imparts high sensitivity to hypoglycemic sulfonylureas (SUs; e.g.

Stimulation of glucose utilization in 3T3 adipocytes and rat diaphragm in vitro by the sulphonylureas, glimepiride and glibenclamide, is correlated with modulations of the cAMP regulatory cascade [PDF]
The long-term hypoglycemic activity of sulphonylurea drugs has been attributed, in part at least, to the stimulation of glucose utilization in extra-pancreatic tissues. The novel sulphonylurea, glimepiride, gives rise to a longer lasting reduction in the

The unusual stoichiometry of ADP activation of the KATP channel
KATP channels, oligomers of 4 pore-forming Kir6.2 proteins and 4 sulfonylurea receptors (SUR), sense metabolism by monitoring both cytosolic ATP, which closes the channel by interacting with Kir6.2, and ADP, which opens it via SUR.

β2-Adrenergic ion-channel coupled receptors as conformational motion detectors.
Ion Channel-Coupled Receptors (ICCRs) are artificial proteins comprised of a G protein-coupled receptor and a fused ion channel, engineered to couple channel gating to ligand binding.

Sulfonylurea derivatives and cancer, friend or foe? [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with a higher risk of cancer and cancer-related mortality. Increased blood glucose and insulin levels in T2DM patients may be, at least in part, responsible for this effect.

Mechanochemistry Meets Catalysis: Metal Complexes for Greener Organic Transformations
Mechanochemistry is redefining metal catalysis by controlling catalyst formulation, speciation, and deployment. This Review shows how milling, LAG, RAM, and TSE enable rapid metal‐complex assembly, distinctive catalytic manifolds, and scalable synthesis beyond solution chemistry.

Background Sulfonylureas (SUs) are widely prescribed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Sulfonylurea receptors (SURs) are their main functional receptors. These receptors are also found in kidney, especially the tubular cells.
