Biological Activity

Nateglinide is an insulin secretagogue that acts as an ATP-dependent potassium channel inhibitor to lower blood glucose levels. By closing ATP-dependent potassium channels in pancreatic beta cells, it depolarizes the plasma membrane and opens voltage-gated calcium channels. The resulting intracellular calcium influx stimulates the fusion of insulin-containing vesicles with the cell membrane, promoting rapid insulin secretion to regulate glucose homeostasis. [1][2]

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
