Abstract

Eight 2,4-thiazolidinedione derivatives exhibited PPAR-γ transactivation ranging from 40.36% to 52.06%, compared to rosiglitazone's 85.30%.

  • Compounds 5o, 5n, and 5a demonstrated significant blood glucose lowering effects in a diabetic rat model.
  • The most effective compound 5o showed a 2.35-fold increase in PPAR-γ gene expression.
  • Compounds 5o, 5n, and 5a lowered AST, ALT, and ALP levels without causing liver damage.
  • Molecular docking studies indicated that the eight derivatives interacted similarly with key amino acids in PPAR-γ.
  • The Glide XP scores of the eight derivatives were all greater than -8, suggesting promising potential as PPAR-γ modulators.
