Chemical Structure

Description	1,1-Dimethylbiguanide-[13C4,15N5] hydrochloride, a labelled isotope analogue of 1,1-Dimethylbiguanide hydrochloride (Metformin hydrochloride), which inhibits the mitochondrial respiratory chain in the liver, leading to activation of AMPK, enhancing insulin sensitivity for type 2 diabetes research. Metformin hydrochloride triggers autophagy. Metformin decreases hyperglycemia primarily by suppressing glucose production by the liver (hepatic gluconeogenesis). 1,1-Dimethylbiguanide-13C4,15N5 hydrochloride can be also used as a standard for the analysis of Metformin hydrochloride and is useful in the research of mechanism of Metformin hydrochloride Metabolic route.
