A neuropeptide with diverse biological activities
Empagliflozin-d4 contains four deuterium atoms and is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of empagliflozin by GC- or LC-MS. Empagliflozin is a potent SGLT2 inhibitor (IC50 = 3.1 nM) that demonstrates a high degree of selectivity (>2,500-fold) over SGLT1, 4, 5, and 6.1 In clinical trials of patients with type 2 diabetes, formulations containing empagliflozin lowered fasting and postprandial glucose levels by increasing total glucose excretion, improving β-cell function, and shifting substrate utilization from glucose to lipids.2
