| Abstract: | β2-Adrenergic receptor (β2AR) agonists are employed as bronchodilators to treat pulmonary disorders, but are attracting attention for their modulation of glucose handling and energy expenditure. Higenamine is a tetrahydroisoquinoline present in several plant species and has β2AR agonist activity, but the involvement of each functional groups in β2AR agonist activity and its effectiveness compared with endogenous catecholamines (dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine) has rarely been studied. Glucose uptake of muscle cells are known to be induced through β2AR activation. Here, the ability to enhance glucose uptake of higenamine was compared with that of several methylated derivatives of higenamine or endogenous catecholamines. We found that: (i) the functional groups of higenamine except for the 4'-hydroxy group are required to enhance glucose uptake; (ii) higenamine shows a comparable ability to enhance glucose uptake with that of epinephrine and norepinephrine; (iii) the S-isomer shows a greater ability to enhance glucose uptake compared with that of the R-isomer. |
