MedChemExpress - Model Pioglitazone - 111025-46-8

Pioglitazone (U 72107) is an orally active and selective PPARγ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor) agonist with high affinity binding to the PPARγ ligand-binding domain with EC50 of 0.93 and 0.99 μM for human and mouse PPARγ, respectively. Pioglitazone can be used in diabetes research[2][3][4].

Description：Pioglitazone (U 72107) is an orally active and selective PPARγ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor) agonist with high affinity binding to the PPARγ ligand-binding domain with EC50 of 0.93 and 0.99 μM for human and mouse PPARγ, respectively. Pioglitazone can be used in diabetes research.

In Vitro：Pioglitazone (0.5 or 1 μM, 5 days) can completely prevent AGEs (advanced glycation end-products)-induced β-cell necrosis and the increase of caspase-3 thereby avoiding the impaired viability caused by AGEs in pancreatic beta cell line HIT-T15[2].?Pioglitazone (1 μM, 1 h) can stimulate insulin secretion induced by low glucose concentration and attenuate the GSSG/GSH ratio in cells cultured with AGEs[2].

In Vivo：Pioglitazone (oral gavage, 10 or 30 mg/kg, once daily, 14 days) can induce improvements in insulin resistance and diabetes that may be lipocalin-dependent in the liver but not in skeletal muscle[3].?Pioglitazone (oral gavage, 10 mg/kg, once daily, 4 weeks) can significantly reduce body weight (BW), cardiac hypertrophy, elevated blood glucose levels and improve the associated dyslipidemia[4].

IC50 & Target：hPPARγ 0.93 μM (EC50) mouse PPARγ 0.99 μM (EC50) hPPARδ 43 μM (EC50) hPPARα 100 μM (EC50) mouse PPARα 100 μM (EC50)
