  • Scientific Description
    Acetohexamide is an orally active first-generation sulfonylurea agent used in research related to type 2 diabetes and cancer. Acetohexamide exerts reductase activity in human erythrocytes. Acetohexamide stimulates the pancreas to secrete insulin. Acetohexamide inhibits ATP-sensitive potassium channels in the beta cells of the pancreas. Acetohexamide can inhibit the formation of circular chemorepellent induced defects (CCIDs) in lymphendothelial cell (LEC) monolayers. Acetohexamide inhibits markers of epithelial-to-mesenchymal-transition and migration. Acetohexamide suppresses the synthesis of 12(S)-HETE. Acetohexamide can potentiate hypoglycaemic action[1][2][3][4].
