    1. HepG2 Assay:

    Procedure

    [0628] For measurement of .sup.14C 2-deoxy-D-glucose transport into HepG2 cells, cells were seeded in collagen treated 96-well plates (Cytostar-T Plates Perkin Elmer, 40.000 cells/200p/well) in medium complete (MEM W/GLUT-I, EARLES (Gibco #41090)/NEAA/PS/10% FCS) and grown for 48 hours. After starvation for 2 hours with MEM W/GLUT-I,EARLES (Gibco #41090)/NEAA/no serum 100 μl/well and washing twice with 200 μL KRB buffer, cells were stimulated in a dose dependent manner by adding 20 μL of test compound dilution 0-750 μM (7.5 times higher concentration than final) or 20 μL of 188 μM Cytochalasin B solution as negative control, to 80 μL KRB buffer and incubated for 30 minutes. After compound stimulation, the transport of .sup.14C 2-deoxy-D-glucose was started by adding of 50 μL .sup.14C 2-deoxy-D-glucose solution (250 μM 2-deoxy-D-glucose cold and 15 μM .sup.14C 2-deoxy-D-glucose 0.13 μCi/well) for 20 minutes. Transport was stopped by adding 50 μL/well 40 μM Cytochalasin B solution. Plates were measured in a 96-well Wallac Microbeta device. The cpm (counts per minute) values were used to determine the % inhibition values for the test compounds within each experiment, which then are averaged over the number of experiments performed.

Cell plates are left for 2 min at room temperature. 20 μL of different glucose concentrations are added to the mix—typically 0.1 to 20 mM range—. Cells are incubated for another 15 min at 37° C., before measuring ATP with the CellTiter-Glo® Assay, under manufacturer's guidance, but without the equilibration step at room temperature for 30 min.

    3. Erythrocyte Dialysis Assay

    [0631] 6-NBD Glc (6-(N-(7-Nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl)amino)-6-Deoxyglucose) is a small fluorescent glucose derivative, which has been shown to bind to GluT-1 in astrocytes (L. F. Barros et al., JOURNAL OF NEUROCHEMISTRY 109 (2009) 94-100). Here 6-NBD-Glc or alternatively 2-NBD-Glc was used in dialysis based competition experiments.

    [0632] Freshly isolated heparinized rat blood samples were immideately diluted (1:5) in PBS buffer to generate a stable stock solution. This stock solution was further diluted (1:1 or 1:3) for the following dialysis experiments in Rapid Equilibrium Dialysis (RED) devices (Thermo Scientific Pierce).

    [0633] The aforementioned stock solution was further diluted (1:1 or 1:3 respectively) and added to the dialysis compartiment of a RED device. In parallel stock solution was diluted (1:1) with buffer containing 6 NBD Glc (25 μM).

    [0634] Dialyses was started by addition of 6 NBD Glc (25 μM) in PBS Buffer (k.sup.on) or pure PBS buffer (k.sup.off) respectively into the buffer compartiment. Aliquots (20 μl) were taken after defined time intervals from the buffer compartiment and fluorescence was measured in a UV plate reader (Thermovarioskan, Thermo).

    [0635] As a control, free diffusion of 6-NBD-Glc (25 μM) in PBS buffer vs pure buffer was measured.

    Data are Given in the Following Table:

    [0636]

    Graphical evaluation of the different slopes gave a K.sub.D=0.68 for 6-NBD-Glc. K.sup.on=0.199; K.sup.off=0.136; K.sub.D=0.136/0.199; K.sub.D=0.68: 68% free.

    [0638] Squares: Decreasing fluorescence intensity measured in buffer compartiment, due to binding to eyrothrocytes.

    [0639] Triangles: Increasing fluorescence intensity measured in buffer compartiment, due to release from erythrocytes.

    [0640] K.sub.D was calculated from the slopes: K.sub.D=0.68 for 6-NBD-Glc.

    [0641] Glucose dependency was determined following the protocol described above, comparing the following solutions: 6 NBD-Glc (100 μM), 6 NBD-Glucose (100 μM)+Glucose 20 mM. Data are shown in the next table

    [0644] Example 102 was investigated in a competition experiment following the same protocol using a 6-NBD-Glc solution (100 μM) in comparison to 6 NBD-Glucose (100 μM)+Example 102 (50 μM). The results are shown in the following table

    [0645] FIG. 3: Fluorescence intensity [AU] is plotted vs time [min].

    [0646] In presence of the Example 102 a clear increase in the slope (rhombus) is seen in comparison to control (squares) indicating the competition with 6-NBD-Glc.
