LCZ960
LCZ960 is an orally active glucokinase (GK) activator. LCZ960 stimulates GK activity in hepatocytes in vitro and stimulates glucose uptake in vivo through hepatic GK activation. LCZ960 lowers blood glucose in mice with diet-induced obesity (DIO) . LCZ960 maintains normoglycemia and improves glucose tolerance in DIO mice and rats. LCZ960 stimulates glycogen synthase flux and increases hepatic glycogen turnover in rats. LCZ960 induces increased hepatic glycogen recycling. LCZ960 can be used to study high-fat diet-induced obesity and type 2 diabetes[1].
