Hydrogenated pyrido[4,3-b]indoles, pyrido[3,4-b]indoles and azepino[4,5-b]indoles are described. The compounds may bind to and are antagonists of the adrenergic receptor α
2A
. The compounds may also bind to and are an antagonist of the adrenergic receptor α
2B
; or the compounds are not antagonists of the adrenergic receptor α
2B
and the compounds are administered in conjunction with a second agent that reduces, or is expected to reduce, blood pressure in an individual. The compounds may find use in therapy, e.g., to regulate blood glucose level, increase insulin secretion and treat diseases or conditions that are, or are expected to be, responsive to an increase in insulin production. Use of the compounds to treat type 2 diabetes is particularly described.
本文描述了氢化吡啶[4,3-b]吲哚、吡啶[3,4-b]吲哚和氮杂七环[4,5-b]吲哚。这些化合物可以结合并拮抗肾上腺素α2A受体。这些化合物也可以结合并拮抗肾上腺素α2B受体;或者这些化合物不是肾上腺素α2B受体的拮抗剂,并且这些化合物与第二种降低或预计降低个体血压的药物一起使用。这些化合物可以在治疗中发挥作用,例如,调节血糖水平、增加胰岛素分泌并治疗对增加胰岛素产生反应的疾病或情况。本文特别描述了使用这些化合物治疗2型糖尿病的方法。
