6bK formate
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
6bK formate is a selective insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) inhibitor with an IC50 of 50 nM. 6bK formate binds to the distal pocket of IDE, thereby blocking substrate binding, peptide unfolding and cleavage processes, and reducing the degradation of insulin, glucagon and amylin. 6bK formate improves oral glucose tolerance but impairs intraperitoneal glucose tolerance. 6bK formate can be used in research related to type 2 diabetes.

Biological Activity
|
IDE 50 nM (IC50) |
6bK formate potently inhibits IDE activity with an IC50 of 50 nM[2].
6bK (1 h) formate exhibits a high plasma protein binding rate, as well as favorable 1-hour stability in mouse plasma and microsomes[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Acute inhibition of insulin-degrading enzyme by 6bK (40-90 mg/kg) formate improves oral glucose tolerance in lean and DIO mice, delays gastric emptying via the amylin signaling pathway, impairs intraperitoneal glucose tolerance via the glucagon signaling pathway, and enhances insulin-mediated hypoglycemic responses, all of which depend on IDE activity[2].
6bK (80 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) formate exhibits a potentiated hypoglycemic response to insulin injection in mice[2].
