Abstract :
[en] Theoretical conformational analysis has been carried out for different hypoglycemic sulfonylurea -Ca complexes. The formed complex has an hydrophobic external surface and a low amphiphilic character. Our results suggest that Calcium may effectively be transported across membranes of Langerhans B cells and that the different biological potencies of the drugs may be due in part to the shape of the different complexes.
