Abstract

In order to create new oral vanadyl organic complexes-based drugs for the treatment of diabetes mellitus we have originally synthesized a biligand vanadyl derivative of L-malic acid (bis(L-malato)oxovanadium(IV)) and investigated its potential as a novel hypoglycemic agent using the experimental streptozotocin-induced diabetes in rats. The oral administration of bis(L-malato)oxovanadium(IV) with drinking water significantly reduced blood and urinary glucose concentrations and also the level of glycated proteins in the streptozotocin-diabetic rats.
