The binding of beta-D-glucopyranosyl-thiosemicarbazone derivatives to glycogen phosphorylase: A new class of inhibitors
(2010)Glycogen phosphorylase (GP) is a promising target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In the process of structure based drug design for GP, a group of 15 aromatic aldehyde 4-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl) thiosemicarbazones ... -
Biochemical and biological assessment of the inhibitory potency of extracts from vinification byproducts of Vitis vinifera extracts against glycogen phosphorylase
(2014)The inhibitory potency of thirteen polyphenolic extracts obtained from vinification byproducts of Greek varieties of Vitis vinifera against glycogen phosphorylase (GP) has been studied by kinetic experiments. GP is an ... -
An evaluation of indirubin analogues as phosphorylase kinase inhibitors
(2015)Phosphorylase kinase (PhK) has been linked with a number of conditions such as glycogen storage diseases, psoriasis, type 2 diabetes and more recently, cancer (Camus et al., 2012 [6]). However, with few reported structural ... -
Halogen-substituted (C-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-hydroquinone regioisomers: Synthesis, enzymatic evaluation and their binding to glycogen phosphorylase
(2011)Electrophilic halogenation of C-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-b-D-glucopyranosyl) 1,4-dimethoxybenzene (1) afforded regioselectively products halogenated at the para position to the D-glucosyl moiety (8, 9) that were deacetylated ... -
Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphism as a risk factor for diabetic nephropathy: a meta-analysis
(2007)Investigations into the association between diabetic nephropathy (DN) and MTHFR C677T gene polymorphism in several case-control studies has yielded contradictory results. To shed light on these inconclusive findings, a ... -
Sourcing the affinity of flavonoids for the glycogen phosphorylase inhibitor site via crystallography, kinetics and QM/MM-PBSA binding studies: Comparison of chrysin and flavopiridol
(2013)Flavonoids have been discovered as novel inhibitors of glycogen phosphorylase (GP), a target to control hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes. To elucidate the mechanism of inhibition, we have determined the crystal structure ...
