the GLUT1 transporter of the humanerythrocytes. All four compounds were able to inhibit [14C]glucose uptake in a concentration-dependent manner. One of them, compound 6, exhibited an approximately 160-fold higher inhibition of [14C]glucose uptake by the GLUT1 transporter than glucose itself. Compound 6 was also able to inhibit [3H]cytochalasinB binding to erythrocytes with approximately 1000-fold
