Insulin
Synthesized by islets -cells from a 86-amino acid proinsulin Consists of chains A and B, with 21 and 30 amino acid residues, respectively The chains are connected by two disulfide linkages (A7-B7 and A20B19), and an intramolecular disulfide linkage (A6-A11) The monomer active form is the biologically
Receptor binding region include: A-1 Gly, A-4 Glu, A-5 Gln, A-19 Tyr, A-21 Asn, B-12 Val, B-16 Tyr, B-24 Phe, and B-26 Tyr Amino acid units can not be removed from the chain A without significant loss of activity. However, up to the first six and last three amino acid units from chain B can be removed without significant loss of activity
Regular Insulin
Onset and duration of insulin is controlled by absorption rate The absorption rate of insulin from subcutaneous site is slow because insulin molecules tend to form dimers and in the presence of zinc they form hexamers Only monomers and dimmers are absorbed with any degree of speed The dissociation rate is slow, onset is about 30 minutes and duration is about 6-12 hr, which is much longer than predicted by the half-life (~ 4 min)
Insulin lispro, aspart, glulisine
Human Insulin
Insulin Lispro (Humalog): Lysine and proline exchanged at positions B28 and B29 and the equilibrium shifts away from hexamer formation thus enhances the rate at which it dissociates into dimers and then into monomers and the rate of absorption is increased
Insulin Aspart (NovoLog): Aspartate is substituted for proline at B28 that shifts the equilibrium away from hexamer formation that reduces the tendency to form hexamers and thus increases the rate of absorption.
Insulin Glulisine (Apidra): Lysine is substituted for asparagine at B3 and glutamate is substituted for lysine at B29. Shifts the equilibrium away from hexamer formation and thus rapidly absorbed

These two changes make the molecule soluble only at a slightly acidic pH (product pH 4) A long acting, delayed onset, insulin with a relatively flat plasma level profile over 24 hours Solution is clear but is not for intravenous use

Must have an aromatic ring next to the sulfoxide group. All marketed drugs have a phenyl ring Should have a substituent at the para position. Methyl, amino, acetyl, chloro, bromo, methylthio and trifluoromethyl enhance hypoglycemic activity
The larger, more complex, para substituents comprise the 2nd generation. The ethylcarboxamide appears to be very potent in these drugs which may be due to the distance from the carboxamide nitrogen to the sulfonamide nitrogen and how it binds to the receptor
R2
Must be lipophilic
Has some size constraints: N-methyl is inactive, N-ethyl has low activity, Ndodecyl and above are inactive N-Propyl to N-hexyl are the most potent

In general these are eliminated in the urine as some parent compound plus metabolites
Tolbutamide is one of the least potent oral hypoglycemics with short duration due to rapid hydroxylation of para methyl substituent followed by oxidation to the acid
In Chlorpropamide the para chloro protects from oxidation and thus has a longer duration than tolbutamide. Also increases lipid solubility to increase potency. Metabolism is by and -1 oxidation
Tolazamide has a cyclic substituent that makes it approximately equal to chlorpropamide in potency even though the para substituent is the same as tolbutamide. Oxidized quickly as with tolbutamide, but the alcohol formed has reasonable activity (active metabolite) so its overall duration is longer than tolbutamide and shorter than chlorpropamide
Acetohexamide possesses ketone group that is rapidly reduced to the alcohol but this is more active than the parent compound and has a longer half-life. The 4 position on the hexane ring is also hydroxylated. Duration is similar to tolazamide.

Due to their larger molecular size, biliary excretion becomes important Glyburide and glipizide are hydroxylated at the 3 or 4 position on the cyclohexyl ring. Some metabolites are active so duration is longer than parent compound Glimepiride, sometimes referred to as a 3rd generation, is most potent of all sulfonylureas. The cyclohexyl methyl is hydroxylated then oxidized to the acid.

On November 19, 2007 an Advisory Committee of the FDA issued a Black Box Warning. On September 11, 2007, a research found diabetes drug Actos (by Takeda Pharmaceutical Co.) cuts the risk of heart attack, stroke and death, but raises the risk of heart failure, while rival Avandia (by GlaxoSmithKline) raises heart risks. "Although drugs may be in the same class, they also can have different clinical effects due to differences in molecular structure," said Mehmood Khan, M.D., Takeda Global Research & Development (TGRD) president.

Contains a bisguanide in the structure where two molecules of guanidine linked together, e.g., Metformin (Glucophase). They reduce sugar absorption from GI tract, reduce gluconeogenesis and increase muscle and fat cell uptake of blood glucose and thus are antihyperglycemic rather than hypoglycemics

Polysaccharides are broken down to smaller saccharides -Glucosidase breaks down more complex saccharides in the intestine such as tri and disaccharides by splitting off a single sugar from the end These drugs, by mimicking the sugar structure, bind with a higher affinity than the natural substrate to the enzyme, inhibiting further breakdown of these saccharides This decreases the absorption of monosaccharides and decreases the postprandial peak in blood glucose. Thus most useful in patients with postprandial hyperglycemia. Note that monosaccharides already in the diet are not affected and so patients should avoid eating glucose, itself Unfortunately, these drugs can increase the amount of saccharides entering the colon, and can cause colonic distress, which includes diarrhea, flatulence, and cramping
Case 1. As staff pharmacist at the local hospital, you have been called in to consult on a case involving a 63-year-old itinerant farm worker who was brought in with symptoms of insulin shock, that is, confusion, disorientation, and convulsions. His blood glucose was 30 mg/100 ml. The symptoms were gradually reversed with IV glucose (5%). From a review of the record, you learn that the patient had been hospitalized 1 month earlier with acute pulmonary aspergillosis. This was treated with amphotericin B (slow IV) over a 2-week period. The patient was then released with a prescription for oral itraconazole (1) (two 100-mg tablets twice daily) for 2 months. Inspection of chart also revealed that the patient is an adult onset diabetic, who has been taking tolbutamide (2) (500 mg four times daily) for the past 5 years.
