Application
Dapagliflozin propanediol USP reference standard, intended for use in specified quality tests and assays as specified in the USP compendia.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Dapagliflozin (BMS-512148) is an orally active, potent and selective renal sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2; SLC5A2) inhibitor (human/rat SGLT2 IC₅₀ = 1.1/3 nM vs. human/rat SGLT1 IC₅₀ = 1.39/0.6 μM; R-methyl-D-glucopyranoside (AMG) uptake assay with respective CHO transfectants). Dapagliflozin reduces blood glucose levels (by 55% in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced hyperglycemic rats 5 hrs post 0.1 mg/kg p.o.) by preventing the renal glucose reabsorption process and promoting glucose excretion in urine with good pharmacokinetic properties and oral availability (84% in rats and 83% in dogs, respectively, post 1 mg/kg and 6.6 mg/kg p.o.) in vivo.
Orally active, potent and selective renal sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2; SLC5A2) inhibitor with blood sugar-lowering efficacy in vivo.
