Glibenclamide(Glyburide) is a sulfonylurea compound that modulates insulin production. IC50 value:Target:Sulfonylureas bind to ATP-dependent K+ channels in beta cells of the pancreas, depolarizing them and stimulating the release of Ca2+, which in turn stimulates insulin production. Glibenclamide, a sulphonylurea oral hypoglycaemic agent is a widely used antagonist of cromakalim-activated K+ channels in smooth muscle. Binding of Gli to SUR produces the closure of KATP channels and the inhibition of their activity. Glibenclamide is widely used for treatment of type 2-diabetes and it has been signaled as antiproliferative in several tumor cell lines.
