A few novel 1,3-dioxane carboxylic acid derivatives were designed and synthesized to aid in the characterization of PPAR alpha/gamma dual agonists. Structural requirements for PPARalpha/gamma dual agonism of 1,3-dioxane carboxylic acid derivatives included the structural similarity with potent glitazones in fibric acid chemotype. The compounds with this pharmacophore and substituted oxazole as a lipophilic heterocyclic tail were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro PPAR agonistic potential and in vivo hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic efficacy in animal models. Lead compound 2-methyl-c-5-[4-(5-methyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)-oxazol-4-ylmethoxy)-benzyl]-1,3-dioxane-r-2-carboxylic acid 13b exhibited potent hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic and insulin sensitizing effects in db/db mice and Zucker fa/fa rats.  相似文献

We have developed a new class of PPARalpha/gamma dual agonists, which show excellent agonistic activity in PPARalpha/gamma transactivation assay. In particular, (R)-9d was identified as a potent PPARalpha/gamma dual agonist with EC(50)s of 0.377 microM in PPARalpha and 0.136 microM in PPARgamma, respectively. Interestingly, the structure-activity relationship revealed that the stereochemistry of the identified PPARalpha/gamma dual agonists significantly affects their agonistic activities in PPARalpha than in PPARgamma.  相似文献

To understand the species selectivity in a series of alpha-methyl-alpha-phenoxy carboxylic acid PPARalpha/gamma dual agonists (1-11), structure-based molecular modeling was carried out in the ligand binding pockets of both human and mouse PPARalpha. This study suggested that interaction of both 4-phenoxy and phenyloxazole substituents of these ligands with F272 and M279 in mouse PPARalpha leads to the species-specific divergence in ligand binding. Insights obtained in the molecular modeling studies of these key interactions resulted in the ability to convert a human-selective PPARalpha agonist to a human and mouse dual agonist within the same platform.  相似文献

The current goal in the treatment of diabetes is not only to enhance the glycemic control but also to improve the associated cardiovascular risk factors. Among many of the strategies available, a co-ligand of PPARalpha and gamma in a single molecule which combines the insulin sensitizing potential of PPARgamma and the beneficial lipid modulating properties of PPARalpha agonism, has gained attention in the recent past. Here we report the biochemical mechanism by which a dual PPAR alpha/gamma agonist Ragaglitazar (Raga) achieves this goal. The PPARalpha component of Raga appears to contribute to a significant increase in beta oxidation, ApoA1 secretion and inhibition of TG biosynthesis in HepG2 cells. These effects of Raga at 60 microM were similar to that shown by Fenofibrate (Feno) at 250 microM. The PPARgamma component of Raga showed significant G3PDH activity and TG accumulation with a corresponding increase in aP2 expression in 3T3L1 cells. Significantly reduced levels of IL-6 and TNFalpha were observed in the culture supernatants of Raga treated 3T3L1 cells. Raga resulted in significant insulin dependent glucose uptake in 3T3L1 with a corresponding increase in GLUT4 expression. Further, Raga showed a significant cholesterol efflux with a corresponding increase in ABCA1 protein expression in THP-1 macrophages. In conclusion, Raga activates both PPARalpha and gamma regulated pathway in adipocytes as well as in hepatocytes which together contributes for its insulin sensitizing and lipid lowering activity. In addition the dual activation of PPAR alpha/gamma also shows an athero-protective potential by inducing reverse cholesterol efflux and inhibiting the pro-inflammatory cytokines.  相似文献

Aryl-tetrahydropyridine derivatives were prepared and their PPARalpha/gamma dual agonistic activities were evaluated. Among them, compound (S)-5b was identified as a potent PPARalpha/gamma dual agonist with an EC(50) of 1.73 and 0.64 microM in hPPARalpha and gamma, respectively. In diabetic (db/db) mice, compound (S)-5b showed good glucose lowering efficacy and favorable pharmacokinetic properties.  相似文献

Abnormalities in fatty acid (FA) metabolism underlie the development of insulin resistance and alterations in glucose metabolism, features characteristic of the metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes that can result in an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. We present pharmacodynamic effects of AZ 242, a novel peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR)alpha/gamma agonist. AZ 242 dose-dependently reduced the hypertriglyceridemia, hyperinsulinemia, and hyperglycemia of ob/ob diabetic mice. Euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp studies showed that treatment with AZ 242 (1 micromol/kg/d) restored insulin sensitivity of obese Zucker rats and decreased insulin secretion. In vitro, in reporter gene assays, AZ 242 activated human PPARalpha and PPARgamma with EC(50) in the micro molar range. It also induced differentiation in 3T3-L1 cells, an established PPARgamma effect, and caused up-regulation of liver fatty acid binding protein in HepG-2 cells, a PPARalpha-mediated effect. PPARalpha-mediated effects of AZ 242 in vivo were documented by induction of hepatic cytochrome P 450-4A in mice. The results indicate that the dual PPARalpha/gamma agonism of AZ 242 reduces insulin resistance and has beneficial effects on FA and glucose metabolism. This effect profile could provide a suitable therapeutic approach to the treatment of type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and associated vascular risk factors.  相似文献

Type-2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex metabolic disease characterized by insulin resistance in the liver and peripheral tissues accompanied by a defect in pancreatic beta-cell. Since their discovery three subtypes of Peroxisomes Proliferators Activated Receptors were identified namely PPARalpha, PPARgamma and PPARbeta/(delta). We were interested in designing novel PPARgamma selective agonists and/or dual PPARalpha/gamma agonists. Based on the typical topology of synthetic PPAR agonists, we focused our design approach on 4,4-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline as novel cyclic tail.  相似文献

Replacement of the methyl-thiazole moiety of GW501516 (a PPARdelta selective agonist) with [1,2,4]thiadiazole gave compound 21 which unexpectedly displayed submicromolar potency as a partial agonist at PPARalpha in addition to the high potency at PPARdelta. A structure-activity relationships study of 21 resulted in the identification of 40 as a potent and selective PPARalpha/delta dual agonist. Compound 40 and its close analogs represent a new series of PPARalpha/delta dual agonists. The high potency, high selectivity, significant gene induction, excellent PK profiles, low P450 inhibition or induction, and good in vivo efficacy in four animal models support 40 being selected as a pre-clinical study candidate, and may render 40 as a valuable pharmacological tool in elucidating the complex roles of PPARalpha/delta dual agonists, and the potential usage for the treatment of metabolic syndrome.  相似文献

A novel class of azetidinone acid-derived dual PPARalpha/gamma agonists has been synthesized for the treatment of diabetes and dyslipidemia. The preferred stereochemistry in this series for binding and functional agonist activity against both PPARalpha and PPARgamma receptors was shown to be 3S,4S. Synthesis, in vitro and in vivo activities of compounds in this series are described. A high-yielding method for N-arylation of azetidinone esters is also described.  相似文献

Improvement of insulin sensitivity and lipid and glucose metabolism by coactivation of both nuclear peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)gamma and PPARalpha potentially provides beneficial effects over existing PPARgamma and alpha preferential drugs, respectively, in treatment of type 2 diabetes. We examined the effects of the dual PPARalpha/gamma agonist ragaglitazar on hyperglycemia and whole body insulin sensitivity in early and late diabetes stages in Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats and compared them with treatment with the PPARgamma preferential agonist rosiglitazone. Despite normalization of hyperglycemia and Hb A(1c) and reduction of plasma triglycerides by both compounds in both prevention and early intervention studies, ragaglitazar treatment resulted in overall reduced circulating insulin and improved insulin sensitivity to a greater extent than after treatment with rosiglitazone. In late-intervention therapy, ragaglitazar reduced Hb A(1c) by 2.3% compared with 1.1% by rosiglitazone. Improvement of insulin sensitivity caused by the dual PPARalpha/gamma agonist ragaglitazar seemed to have beneficial impact over that of the PPARgamma-preferential activator rosiglitazone on glycemic control in frankly diabetic ZDF rats.  相似文献

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)alpha and PPARgamma agonists lower lipid accumulation in muscle and liver by different mechanisms. We investigated whether benefits could be achieved on insulin sensitivity and lipid metabolism by the dual PPARalpha/gamma agonist ragaglitazar in high fat-fed rats. Ragaglitazar completely eliminated high-fat feeding-induced liver triglyceride accumulation and visceral adiposity, like the PPARalpha agonist Wy-14643 but without causing hepatomegaly. In contrast, the PPARgamma agonist rosiglitazone only slightly lessened liver triglyceride without affecting visceral adiposity. Compared with rosiglitazone or Wy-14643, ragaglitazar showed a much greater effect (79%, P < 0.05) to enhance insulin's suppression of hepatic glucose output. Whereas all three PPAR agonists lowered plasma triglyceride levels and lessened muscle long-chain acyl-CoAs, ragaglitazar and rosiglitazone had greater insulin-sensitizing action in muscle than Wy-14643, associated with a threefold increase in plasma adiponectin levels. There was a significant correlation of lipid content and insulin action in liver and particularly muscle with adiponectin levels (P < 0.01). We conclude that the PPARalpha/gamma agonist ragaglitazar has a therapeutic potential for insulin-resistant states as a PPARgamma ligand, with possible involvement of adiponectin. Additionally, it can counteract fatty liver, hepatic insulin resistance, and visceral adiposity generally associated with PPARalpha activation, but without hepatomegaly.  相似文献

In the quest for novel PPARalpha/gamma co-agonists as putative drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia, we have used a structure-based design approach to identify propionic acids with a 1,5-disubstituted indole scaffold as potent PPARalpha/gamma activators. Compounds 13, 24, and 28 are examples of submicromolar dual agonists with different alpha/gamma EC50 ratios that are selective against the delta-isoform. Analysis of the X-ray complex structure of PPARgamma with the indole propionic acid 13 provides a rationalization for some of the observed SAR.  相似文献

Oxime ethers of alpha-acyl-beta-phenylpropanoic acids were prepared to apply as PPARalpha and gamma dual agonists. Among them, compound 11l proved to exhibit potent in vitro activities with EC(50) of 19 and 13nM in PPARalpha and gamma, respectively. It showed better glucose lowering effects than rosiglitazone 1 and ameliorated the lipid profile like plasma triglyceride in db/db mice model.  相似文献

LSN862 is a novel peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)alpha/gamma dual agonist with a unique in vitro profile that shows improvements on glucose and lipid levels in rodent models of type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia. Data from in vitro binding, cotransfection, and cofactor recruitment assays characterize LSN862 as a high-affinity PPARgamma partial agonist with relatively less but significant PPARalpha agonist activity. Using these same assays, rosiglitazone was characterized as a high-affinity PPARgamma full agonist with no PPARalpha activity. When administered to Zucker diabetic fatty rats, LSN862 displayed significant glucose and triglyceride lowering and a significantly greater increase in adiponectin levels compared with rosiglitazone. Expression of genes involved in metabolic pathways in the liver and in two fat depots from compound-treated Zucker diabetic fatty rats was evaluated. Only LSN862 significantly elevated mRNA levels of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase isozyme 4 and bifunctional enzyme in the liver and lipoprotein lipase in both fat depots. In contrast, both LSN862 and rosiglitazone decreased phosphoenol pyruvate carboxykinase in the liver and increased malic enzyme mRNA levels in the fat. In addition, LSN862 was examined in a second rodent model of type 2 diabetes, db/db mice. In this study, LSN862 demonstrated statistically better antidiabetic efficacy compared with rosiglitazone with an equivalent side effect profile. LSN862, rosiglitazone, and fenofibrate were each evaluated in the humanized apoA1 transgenic mouse. At the highest dose administered, LSN862 and fenofibrate reduced very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, whereas, rosiglitazone increased very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. LSN862, fenofibrate, and rosiglitazone produced maximal increases in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol of 65, 54, and 30%, respectively. These findings show that PPARgamma full agonist activity is not necessary to achieve potent and efficacious insulin-sensitizing benefits and demonstrate the therapeutic advantages of a PPARalpha/gamma dual agonist.  相似文献
