Disease relevance of Butylbiguanide

 

High impact information on Butylbiguanide

  • Buformin concentrations in serum, other body fluids and tissues were measured by gas chromatography [1].
  • Serum buformin concentration at admission was 5.5 mg/l. Postmortem concentrations were: in serum 3.2 mg/l; in lung 2.8 mg/kg wet weight; in heart 3.0 mg/kg; in pericardial fluid 3.5 mg/l; in liver 5.2 mg/kg; in bile 6.3 mg/l; and in kidney 98 mg/kg [1].
  • Effects of buformin on the metabolsim of the isolated haemoglobin-free perfused hindlimb of normal rats [5].
  • Furthermore, the extent of the increase in blood lactate caused by three different biguanides (metformin, buformin, and phenformin) was compared with the abilities to reduce oxygen consumption in isolated rat hepatocytes [6].
  • A comparison of these benzimidoylpyrazoles with classical standards (tolazamide, phenformin, and buformin) in several experimental models show that these compounds seem to combine in one molecule some of the biological activities of the beta-cytotrophic sulfonylureas and some of the activities of the biguanides [7].
