A Novel Small Molecule 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-α-D-glucopyranose Mimics the Antiplatelet Actions of Insulin

BACKGROUND: We have shown that 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-α-D-glucopyranose (α-PGG), an orally effective hypoglycemic small molecule, binds to insulin receptors and activates insulin-mediated glucose transport. Insulin has been shown to bind to its receptors on platelets and inhibit platelet activati...
