Notes: Demethylasterriquinone B1 (DMAQ B1) is a natural insulin mimic that activates insulin receptor tyrosine kinase (IRTK; EC50 = 6 µM).{33106,33107,33108,33109} It less potently activates IGF1R and EGFR (EC50s = 100 µM for both). DMAQ B1 induces glucose uptake in adipocytes and skeletal muscle cells without activating proliferation. DMAQ B1 binds GAPDH in vitro.{33105}
