Abstract
Diabetes is a metabolic disorder that has been reported to increase the mortality rate worldwide. About 40 million people across the globe suffer from diabetes, with people living in developing countries being affected the most due to this deadly disease. Although the therapeutic management of hyperglycaemia can treat diabetes, metabolic disorders associated with this disease are a greater challenge in its treatment. Hence, potential strategies to treat hyperglycaemia and its side effects are needed. In this review, we have summarized several therapeutic targets, like dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), glucagon receptor antagonists, glycogen phosphorylase or fructose-1,6- biphosphatase inhibitors, SGLT inhibitors, 11beta-HSD-1 inhibitors, glucocorticoids receptor antagonists, glucose-6-phosphatase and glycogen phosphorylase inhibitors. These targets can help in designing and developing novel antidiabetic agents.
