Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Thiazolidine‐2,4‐dione Conjugates as PPAR‐γ Agonists

Abstract: A library of synthesized conjugates of phenoxy acetic acid and thiazolidinedione 5a-m showed potent peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) transactivation as well as significant blood glucose lowering effect comparable to the standard drugs pioglitazone and rosiglitazone. Most of the compounds showed higher docking scores than the standard drug rosiglitazone in the molecular docking study. Compounds 5l and 5m exhibited PPAR-γ transactivation of 54.21 and 55.41%, respectively, in comparison to th… Show more

“…2,4-Thiazolidinedione is the basic molecular compound for the chemical synthesis of all thiazolidinedione molecules known to be specific and potent PPAR γ agonists, including rosiglitazone and pioglitazone [70, 71]. Because of this, 2,4-thiazolidinedione was assumed to be a PPAR γ agonist; however, to our knowledge, it has not been proved that 2,4-TZD is a PPAR γ agonist.…”

“…The crucial role of PPARγ in lipid metabolism, adipogenesis, glucose homeostasis, and insulin sensitization is well documented . PPARγ agonists, such as thiazolidinediones, including the widely used drug rosiglitazone, have been used in clinical practice to treat diabetes for several years and have been shown to lower blood glucose levels and improve insulin sensitivity …”

“…Diabetes has reached an epidemic level by becoming a major health issue round the globe . Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐γ (PPAR‐γ) agonists have come up with a leading role as an orally effective antidiabetic agent . Diabetes or diabetes mellitus is a multifactorial metabolic disease/polygenic disorder characterized by increased glucose levels/insulin resistance over prolonged periods in liver and peripheral tissues .…”
