Discovery of INT131: A selective PPAR[gamma] modulator that enhances insulin sensitivity

PPAR[gamma] is a member of the nuclear hormone receptor family and plays a key role in the regulation of glucose homeostasis. This Letter describes the discovery of a novel chemical class of diarylsulfonamide partial agonists that act as selective PPAR[gamma] modulators (SPPAR[gamma]Ms) and display...

Zusammenfassung:PPAR[gamma] is a member of the nuclear hormone receptor family and plays a key role in the regulation of glucose homeostasis. This Letter describes the discovery of a novel chemical class of diarylsulfonamide partial agonists that act as selective PPAR[gamma] modulators (SPPAR[gamma]Ms) and display a unique pharmacological profile compared to the thiazolidinedione (TZD) class of PPAR[gamma] full agonists. Herein we report the initial discovery of partial agonist 4 and the structure-activity relationship studies that led to the selection of clinical compound INT131 (3), a potent PPAR[gamma] partial agonist that displays robust glucose-lowering activity in rodent models of diabetes while exhibiting a reduced side-effects profile compared to marketed TZDs.
