摘要:
A therapeutic or preventive agent for diabetes mellitus which is characterized in containing at least one compound selected from a group consisting of 4,5-dihydroxy-2-cyclopenten-1-one represented by the following formula [I] and an optically active substance and a salt thereof as an effective component.
摘要:
A compound represented by the following formula [I] or an optically active substance or a salt thereof. (In the formula, a bond shown by a dotted line in the five-membered ring means that said five-membered ring may be any of a cyclopentene ring having a double bond and a cyclopentane ring where said bond is saturated and, in the case of a cyclopentene ring, X is OH, Y is ═O and Z is H while, in the case of a cyclopentane ring, X is ═O, Y is OH and Z is OH. R is a residue after removal of an SH group from the SH-containing compound.)
