1. Nearly 500 million people in the world are Diabetic state estimated to have diabetes mellitus, metabolic disorders that share the hallmark of elevated blood Pancreas B-cell a-cell glucose levels that persist over long periods of time. Type 1 diabetes is caused by a loss of insulin- producing cells in the pancreas, while Type 2 diabetes is associated primarily with insulin resistance, meaning that insulin is produced, but the body is insensitive to it and cells unable to efficiently take up glucose from the blood stream. In addition to reducing uptake of glucose in peripheral tissues, reduced insulin production or increased insulin resistance are trigger the liver to activate glucose production by gluconeogenesis, further increasing blood glucose levels and exacerbating the disease. As such, a frontline treatment for Type 2 diabetes is the drug metformin, which acts indirectly to inhibit gluconeogenesis in the liver. You are a research biochemist who would like to develop new drugs…
