Illustration showing repaglinide (white, blue and red spheres within helices) binding to an ATP-dependent potassium channel (multicoloured helices) on a pancreatic beta cell. Repaglinide belongs to a class of drug known as meglitinides which bind to ATP-dependent potassium channels in pancreatic beta cells, stimulating insulin release. Insulin, in turn, increases cellular glucose uptake, reducing blood sugar levels, making repaglinide a suitable treatment for type 2 diabetes.
