Considering the previously reported biological activities of Cobalt
and Vanadium complexes of pyridinedicarboxylic acids, and
oxovanadium metformin complexes, the vanadium complex of
(MetH)2(dipic) possibly could benefit the presence of dipic, Vanadium
and Met simultaneously in a single compound. This could improve
the potential and possible synergy of vanadium complexes.
It seems to us that there is a significant potential for further
development of these complexes as insulin-mimic compounds.
