S-4048 is a glucose-6-phosphate translocase modulator and hypoglycemic agent. S-4048 is taken up by hepatocytes via OATP-1 and is rapidly eliminated via the hepatobiliary system in rats. S-4048 blocks glucose-6-phosphate translocase, prevents glucose-6-phosphate from entering the endoplasmic reticulum, and thereby interferes with the glucose-6-phosphatase system (i.e., the final step of hepatic gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis) to regulate hepatic glucose production. S-4048 completely inhibits glucose production from pyruvate in GLUT2-deficient hepatocytes without affecting the release of cytoplasmic glucose. S-4048 effectively reduces blood glucose levels in rats and has been used in studies related to type 2 diabetes.
