The continued optimization of a series of glucokinase activators is described, including attempts to understand the interplay between molecular structure and the composite parameter of unbound clearance. These studies resulted in the discovery of a new scaffold for glucokinase activators and further exploration of this scaffold led to the identification of GKA60. GKA60 maintains an excellent balance of potency and physical properties whilst possessing a significantly different, but complimentary, pre-clinical pharmacokinetic profile compared with the previously disclosed compound GKA50.

Rice-fish farming is an ancient and enduring aquaculture model in China. This study aimed to assess the variations in digestive enzymes, antioxidant properties, glucose metabolism, and nutritional content between reared in paddy fields and ponds. Notably, the levels of amylase and trypsin in from rice paddies were considerably higher compared to those from ponds.

The study investigates the inhibitory properties of Mangiferin and Friedelin against glucokinase, DPP-IV, α-amylase, and α-glucosidase using computational methods, in vitro enzyme assays, and in-depth ADMET analysis. The study utilized a computer-aided drug design approach to assess the potential therapeutic properties of Mangiferin and Friedelin as T2DM therapeutic agents. Molecular docking studies' outcomes encouraged the evaluation of both compounds in in vitro enzymatic assays.

Melatonin (MT) can improve plant resistance and fruit quality. The mechanism by which MT affects soluble sugar and organic acids accumulation in drupe fruits is not clear. In this study, 100 µmol/L MT was sprayed on the leaves of plum trees at the second stage of rapid fruit expansion (90 and 97 d after flowering), and the effects of MT on plum fruit quality and its effects on the soluble sugar-organic acid metabolism were investigated.

To explore the molecular targets for regulating glucose metabolism in carnivorous fish, the turbot () was selected as the research object to study. Farnesoid X receptor (FXR; NR1H4), as a ligand-activated transcription factor, plays an important role in glucose metabolism in mammals. However, the mechanisms controlling glucose metabolism mediated by FXR in fish are not understood.
