Product Description

Balaglitazone (also known as NNC-610645; NNC-612344; NN-2344; DRF-2593) is a selective partial agonist of PPARγ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor) with an EC50 of 1.351 μM for human PPARγ. PPARγ is a promising target for the treatment of Type II Diabetes because it is involved in the regulation of insulin, triglycerides, and lipid metabolism. In a number of animal models, balaglitazone has demonstrated strong blood glucose-lowering properties.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
PPARγ (EC50 = 351 nM)
ln Vitro
Balaglitazone is a selective partial PPARγ agonist with an EC50 of 1.351 μM[1]. The cytotoxicity of balaglitazone (5-100 μM) on K562 and K562/DOX cells is equivalent. In K562 and K562/DOX cells, balaglitazone reduces the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin with IC50 values of 0.117 μM and 0.53 μM, respectively. In K562/DOX cells, balaglitazone reverses multidrug resistance (MDR). While balaglitazone (25 µM) does not increase MFI in K562 cells, it does increase Rh123 accumulation in K562/DOX cells. Balaglitazone inhibits PTEN expression in K562/DOX cells, which results in a downregulation of P-gp expression in K562/DOX cells. PTEN inhibition reverses these effects[2].
ln Vivo
Balaglitazone (3 mg/kg, p.o.) exhibits more potent antihyperglycemic action than rosiglitazone, the full PPARγ agonist, in fully diabetic and insulin-resistant db/db mice[1]. In obese male rats fed a diet, balaglitazone (10 mg/kg, p.o.) reduces insulin levels, suppresses total glucose, and increases body weight; these effects are comparable to those of pioglitazone (30 mg/kg)[3].
Cell Assay
Cell viability analyses employ the MTT assay. In short, a density of 2 × 104 cells/well is seeded with K562 and K562/DOX cells in a 96-well plate using RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS. RPMI-1640 medium (without FBS) is used to dilute different concentrations of doxorubicin (DOX) with or without balaglitazone, which are then added to each well after a 24-hour incubation period. There is a blank control and three duplicates of each group's experiment carried out. The medium is taken out after 48 hours of treatment, and 200 μL of RPMI-1640 medium that has been supplemented with 10% FBS and 10% MTT (5 mg/mL) is added. Substituting 100 μL of RPMI-1640 medium with an equivalent volume of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) dissolves the reduced intracellular formazan product following an additional 4-hour incubation period. Using a microplate reader, absorbance values are determined at 570 nm. It is calculated what each experiment's half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) is. By dividing the treatment's IC50 value in resistant cells by the treatment's IC50 value in corresponding parental cells, the resistance fold (RF) is computed[2].
Animal Protocol
In adult male diabetic db/db mice, the antihyperglycemic effects of rosiglitazone and balaglitazone are evaluated. Animals are divided into 11 groups (n = 6) based on their fasting blood glucose at the age of 14 weeks. Over the course of nine days, mice are given increasing doses of either rosiglitazone (0.2; 0.6; 2.0; 6.0 mg/kg/day) or balaglitazone (0.1; 0.3; 1.0; 3.0; 10.0 mg/kg/day) or a vehicle (0.2% carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) + 0.4% Tween-80 in saline). Following a 7-day course of treatment, insulin and glucose levels are measured in morning plasma samples collected between 8:00 and 10:00 AM. The animals are given an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT; 3.0 g/kg) following a course of treatment lasting nine days. For every dose, the resulting area under the curve is computed[1].
