'''PUGNAc''' is a 1,5-hydroximolactone, acting as an ] of a variety of ]. It was long thought that increased levels of ''O''-GlcNAc in human cells lead to Type II diabetes. O-GlcNAc levels were artificially raised with PUGNAc, which inhibits O-GlcNAcase, a beta-exo-N-acetylhexosaminidase which cleaves beta-O-linked-N-acetylglucosamine residues from glycoproteins. As a result of this inhibition, a type II diabetic phenotype was observed. It was unknown however, whether it was the increased O-GlcNAc levels or inhibition of another N-acetylhexosaminidase within the cell which was generating this phenotype. Recent studies have shown, using a selective O-GlcNAcase inhibitor, that there is no corellation between increased ''O''-GlcNAc levels on glycoproteins and Type II diabetes.

As a result of this inhibition, a type II diabetic phenotype was observed. Recent pharmacological studies using a more selective O-GlcNAcase inhibitor did not see this effect. However, genetic manipulation of O-GlcNAc levels is consistent with the effects observed by PUGNAc, namely insulin resistance upon elevation of O-GlcNAc levels.<ref>{{Cite journal | vauthors = Cheng SS, Mody AC, Woo CM |date=2024-11-07 |title=Opportunities for Therapeutic Modulation of O-GlcNAc |journal=Chemical Reviews |language=en |doi=10.1021/acs.chemrev.4c00417 |issn=0009-2665}}</ref>
