Comparative Metabolic Availability of Glucose and Sucrose and the Effect of Acarbose on Sucrose Utilization During Exercise in Type I Diabetic Patients
We have previously shown that glucose (G) and sucrose (S) given orally during exercise of prolonged duration and moderate intensity are perfectly available metabolic substrates. Moreover, in normal humans, we ...

Effect of Acarbose on Fecal Short-Chain Fatty Acid Excretion in Man
The effect of the glucosidase inhibitor acarbose (BAY g 5421) on colonic carbohydrate fermentation was investigated in 11 healthy volunteers. Anaerobic bacteria in the ascending colon degrade malabsorbed starc...

Effects of Sucrose Meal on Insulin Requirement in IDDM and its Modulation by Acarbose
We have studied in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) the effects of a sucrose meal on glucose gut absorption, glucose turnover, insulin requirement, and the modulation of the latter by a...

The Influence of Acarbose Dosage Scheme on Intestinal Symptoms and Intestinal Transit Time in Healthy Volunteers
Intestinal symptoms such as flatulence, meteorism, and diarrhea may be induced as a result of the α-glucosidase inhibition caused by acarbose. The aim of this study was to compare the intestinal effects after ...

Comparison of the Action of an α-Glucosidase Inhibitor (Acarbose) and a Sulfonylurea Preparation (Glisoxepide) in Non-insulin-dependent Diabetics
The efficacy of a 4-week treatment with acarbose compared to that with glisoxepide was studied in a controlled group comparison in 40 diabetics treated with diet alone. The median age of the patients was 70 (m...

Effectiveness and Tolerability of the α-Glucosidase Inhibitor Acarbose in NIDDM Patients with Elevated Liver Enzyme Activity
Acarbose is a glucosidase inhibitor which exerts its activities within the gastrointestinal tract on brush-border digestion and absorption of sucrose and maltose. Only 1%–2% of the drug is absorbed from the in...

A Preclinical Study on the Effects of Acarbose on Mice Rendered Obese with Gold Thioglucose
The effect of acarbose has been studied in mice made obese and hyperinsulinemic by gold thioglucose (GTG). One month after GTG administration, when obesity started to develop, mice were treated orally with aca...
