Abstract
The present invention encompasses the use of compounds for a novel approach to treat and prevent diseases, conditions, and disorders such as diabetes and ischemic reperfusion injury. Compounds of the invention, including but not limited to BAM15 ((2-fluorophenyl){6-[(2-fluorophenyl)amino](1,2,5-oxadiazolo[3,4-e]pyrazin-5-yl)}amine), a mitochondrial uncoupler, can improve glucose tolerance, increases cellular oxygen consumption, treat or prevent kidney ischemia reperfusion injury reverse insulin resistance, reverse or treat hyperinsulinemia, and reverse or treat hyperlipidemia. The present invention further provides novel compounds as well as methods for identifying compounds with the same or similar properties as BAM15.
