alpha-Lipoic Acid Derivative 1 (Compound AN-7) is an alpha-lipoic acid derivative that enhances glucose transport in skeletal muscle by releasing active alpha-lipoic acid (LA), significantly improving glucose metabolism. In L6 skeletal muscle cells, alpha-Lipoic Acid Derivative 1 significantly increases glucose transport rates, approximately 12 times more potent than the parent compound alpha-lipoic acid (HY-N0492). In a mild diabetic mouse model, 10 mg/kg of alpha-Lipoic Acid Derivative 1 administered for two weeks significantly reduced blood glucose levels by 39%. alpha-Lipoic Acid Derivative 1 shows significant potential in research related to glucose metabolism in diabetes[1].
