Application
Pioglitazone hydrochloride has been used:
- to administer to mice model and treated the hepatoma cell line to study its effect on regulating insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) in diet-induced obese (DIO) C57BL/6 mice
- in drug preparation to analyze its effects on shortening and calcium transport in ventricular myocytes from the Goto-Kakizaki (GK) type 2 diabetic rat
- to treat HepG2 cells with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonists to examine its effect on TOMM40-, APOE- and APOC1-mRNA levels
Biochem/physiol Actions
Pioglitazone hydrochloride is usually used to treat type-II diabetes. It has the ability to block hepatic gluconeogenesis.
Pioglitazone hydrochloride is a PPARγ agonist and thiazolidinedione (TZD) anti-diabetic.
Pioglitazone hydrochloride is a PPARγ agonist and thiazolidinedione (TZD) anti-diabetic. Pioglitazone is a selective agonist of the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ) and to a lesser extent PPAR-α.
