La diabetes mellitus es un serio desorden metabólicocrónico que se caracteriza por el incremento anormal de laglucosa en la sangre y por complicaciones vasculares yneurológicas. La diabetes mellitus es causada por una falta oun defecto en la acción de la insulina. Si bien actualmenteexisten varios medicamentos orales además de la insulina oanálogos de la insulina, ninguno de estos es el ideal.El vanadio es capaz de imitar los efectos mostrados por lainsulina tanto in vitro como in vivo y se estudia la posibilidadde usar compuestos de vanadio como agentes antidiabéticos. Eneste artículo se revisará la acción insulino-mimética del vanadioy sus posibles mecanismos en comparación con la insulina. / Diabetes mellitus is a serious chronic metabolic disordercharacterized by an increased plasma glucose concentrationand vascular and neurologic complications as well. Diabetesmellitus results from relative or absolute deficiency of insulinsecretion or insulin deficient action. Although there are anumber of oral antidiabetic agents besides insulin or insulinanalogues, none of them is optimal.Vanadium can mimic insulin effects in vitro and in vivoand the possibility of using vanadium compounds asantidiabetic agents is under study. This review will summarizethe insulin mimetic action of vanadium and its possiblemechanisms in comparison with insulin.
