Description
Summary:Nowadays, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) is a serious problem among the world’s population. Metabolic syndrome includes the so-called “deadly” quartet – hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus (diabetes mellitus), dyslipidemia and alimentary obesity. After all, type 2 diabetes is included in the list of pathologies of the metabolic syndrome, it is important to find ways to alleviate the disease. Derivatives of such a heterocyclic system as xanthine are of great interest in this aspect. The aim of the study was to explore the hypoglycemic activity of newly synthesized water-soluble derivatives of 3-benzyl-8-substituted xanthines. Materials and methods. We obtained water-soluble potassium 3-benzyl-8-R-xanthin-7-ides, the structure and individuality of which were confirmed by a set of physical-chemical studies. Results. The hypoglycemic effect of the newly synthesized compounds was assessed by an oral glucose tolerance test. The obtained data were processed using modern statistical in silico-methods. Conclusions. The results of the hypoglycemic activity study among the potassium salts of 3-benzyl-8-substituted xanthine derivatives showed, that some new compounds are in close vicinity to the reference drug’s hypoglycemic action.
