Summary: | An amyio-1, 6-glucosidase inhibitor enhanced inhibition of hepatic glucose production in combination with glycogen phosphorylase inhibitor. The inhibitory activity of 1-deoxynojirimycin (
1) toward human maltase was identical to that of voglibose (
10) of an anti-diabetic agent.
l-Isofagomine (
8), a noncompetitive inhibitor of lysosomal β-glucosidase. also showed a chaperoning activity in N370S Gaucher fibroblasts.
We investigated in vitro inhibition of mammalian carbohydrate-degrading enzymes by six-membered sugar mimics and their evaluation in cell cultures. 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) showed no significant inhibition toward glycogen phosphorylase (GP) but was a potent inhibitor of another glycogen-degrading enzyme, amylo-1,6-glucosidase (1,6-GL), with an IC
50 value of 0.16
μM. In primary rat hepatocytes, the inhibition of glycogen breakdown by DNJ reached plateau at 100
μM with 25% inhibition and then remained unchanged. The potent GP inhibitor 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-
d-arabinitol (
d-AB1) inhibited hepatic glucose production with an IC
50 value of about 9
μM and the inhibition by
d-AB1 was further enhanced in the presence of DNJ. DNJ and α-homonojirimycin (HNJ) are very potent inhibitors of rat intestinal maltase, with IC
50 values of 0.13 and 0.08
μM, respectively, and also showed a similar strong inhibition toward maltase in Caco-2 cell model system, with IC
50 value of 0.05 and 0.10
μM, respectively.
d-Isofagomine (
d-IFG) and
l-IFG are competitive and noncompetitive inhibitors of human lysosomal β-glucosidase (β-GL), respectively, with
K
i values of 8.4
nM and 6.9
μM.
d-IFG increased intracellular β-GL activity by twofold at 10
μM in Gaucher N370S cell line as an ‘active-site-specific’ chaperone, and surprisingly a noncompetitive inhibitor
l-IFG also increased intracellular β-GL activity by 1.6-fold at 500
μM. |
