The effect of benzbromarone on gluconeogenesis from several gluconeogenic substrates in isolated rat liver cells is reported. Benzbromarone inhibited glucose synthesis from all substrates employed when the drug was used at concentrations half to ten times greater than its therapeutic plasma levels. This inhibition was more pronounced from lactate and pyruvate than from fructose and glycerol. The results are compared with those obtained for probenecid, a classical uricosuric drug. We found that probenecid inhibited the pathway in the same way as benzbromarone.

D009243 NAD A coenzyme composed of ribosylnicotinamide 5'-diphosphate coupled to adenosine 5'-phosphate by pyrophosphate linkage. It is found widely in nature and is involved in numerous enzymatic reactions in which it serves as an electron carrier by being alternately oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH).

D011339 Probenecid The prototypical uricosuric agent. It inhibits the renal excretion of organic anions and reduces tubular reabsorption of urate. Probenecid has also been used to treat patients with renal impairment, and, because it reduces the renal tubular excretion of other drugs, has been used as an adjunct to antibacterial therapy.
