| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we synthesized various metal complexes with organic compounds, medicine, and natural products. Above the results, we suggested that the metal complex with the high anti-diabetic effect was Zn complex with ZnS2O2 or ZnSe2O2 coordination mode. These complexes showed the blood glucose normalizing, anti-insulin resistance, and glucose tolerance improved effects by using type 2 diabetes mellitus model KKAy or obob mice. Moreover, Zn complexes activates the insulin signaling pathway with inducing Akt phosphorylation by a insulin-independent manner. It is suggested that this signal activation of Zn complexes in insulin signaling pathway has the potent to ameliorate the insulin resistance in the peripheral tissues; such as muscles and adipose. And it is expectable that this would be the novel mechanism for the treatment of DM.
