(EN) 2,4-Diaryl-5-pyridylimidazoles are glucagon antagonists and inhibitors of the biosynthesis and/or action of TNF-$g(a) and IL-1. The compounds block the action of glucagon at its receptor and thereby decrease the levels of plasma glucose. The instant imidazoles are also inhibitors of TNF-$g(a) and IL-1. Compounds of the present invention may be used for glucagon-mediated as well as cytokine mediated diseases. Cytokine mediated diseases refer to diseases or conditions in which excessive or unregulated production of one or more cytokines occurs. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) and Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) are cytokines produced by a variety of cells, which are involved in immunoregulation and other physiological conditions, such as inflammation.(FR) Les 2,4-diaryl-5-pyridylimidazoles sont des antagonistes du glucagon et des inhibiteurs de la biosynthèse et/ou de l'action du TNF-$g(a) et d'IL-1. Ces composés bloquent l'action du glucagon au niveau de son récepteur et réduisent par conséquent le taux du glucose dans le plasma. Les présents imidazoles sont également des inhibiteurs du TNF-$g(a) et de IL-1. Les composés selon l'invention peuvent être utilisés pour le traitement des maladies liées au glucagon ou à la cytokine. Les maladies liées à la cytokine correspondent à des maladies ou états dans lesquels on observe une production excessive et non régulée d'une ou plusieurs cytokines. L'interleukine-1 (IL-1) et le facteur de nécrose des tumeurs ( TNF) sont des cytokines produites par diverses cellules qui interviennent dans l'immunorégulation et dans d'autres états physiologiques tels que l'inflammation.
