The preparation and characterisation of a series of novel analogues of the imidazoline insulin secretagogue efaroxan, including the I3-receptor antagonist KU14R, are described. Replacement of the imidazoline ring of efaroxan by selected functional groups leads either to loss of activity or to very weak I3-agonist activity in insulin secretion studies. The imidazole analogue KU14R was found to be an I3-antagonist in this assay and useful as a biological tool.
本文介绍了一系列新型咪唑啉胰岛素分泌剂依法罗生类似物(包括 I3 受体拮抗剂 KU14R)的制备和表征。在胰岛素分泌研究中,用选定的官能团取代依法罗生的咪唑啉环会导致其失去活性或产生极弱的 I3 受体拮抗剂活性。研究发现,咪唑类似物 KU14R 在该试验中是一种 I3-拮抗剂,可作为一种有用的生物学工具。
