The design of new oxovanadium（IV） coordination compounds, intended for use as insulin-enhancing agents in the treatment of diabetes mellitus, can potentially benefit from a synergistic approach, in which the whole complex has more than an additive effect from its component parts. Biological testing with oxovanadium（IV） organic phosphonic acid, for insulin-enhancing potential included acute administration, by oral gavage in streptozotocin （STZ） diabetic rats. The complexes of oxovanadium（IV） amino acid-N-phosphonic acid exhibit higher lowering glucose activity in vivo. The interaction of the complexes of oxovanadium（IV） amino acid-N-phosphonic acid with DNA was investigated by agarose gel electrophoresis. The results indicated that these complexes have strong interaction with DNA.展开更多
