Summary

A new series of flavonyl compounds (1–10) was prepared and tested for their in-sulinotropic activities in INS-1 cells. Compounds 2, 5 and 6 (at higher concentrations) and compounds 3 and 7–10 were able to increase insulin release in the presence of 5.6 mmol/l glucose at both concentrations used (1 and 10 μg/ml).

Zusammenfassung

Synthese und blutzuckersenkende Wirkung einiger neuer Flavon-Derivate / 4. Mitteilung: 6-Flavonyl-2,4-thiazolidindione

Eine neue Serie von Flavonyl-Verbindungen (1–10) wurde synthetisiert und auf ihre insulinotrope Wirkung an INS-1-Zellen getestet. Die Substanzen 2, 5 und 6 erhöhten zumindest bei Anwendung einer höheren Konzentration die Insulin-sekretion in Gegenwart von 5,6 mmol/l Glucose, die Substanzen 3 und 7–10 zeigten diese Wirkung bei beiden verwendeten Konzentrationen (1 und 10 μg/ml).
