Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

The main result of … study is that suramin has only an effect on HT29-D4 … growth and differentiation when the concentration of glucose is above 10 mM. Therefore the efficiency of suramin as an anticancer drug may be greater on poorly differentiated tumoral cells with a high proliferative capacity.

Suramin (50-200 microM), a purinoceptor blocker, reversibly and dose-dependently inhibited the rise in cytoplasmic calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) induced by glucose and by ATP in single beta cells.

Furthermore, it was observed that the islet activity of the glucose producing glycogenolytic hydrolase, acid amyloglucosidase, which is excessively high in the obese mouse, was markedly reduced by suramin (about 70%) at 20 hr.
