  • Title: Antidiabetic effect of novel benzenesulfonylureas as PPAR-γ agonists and their anticancer effect.
    Author: Kharbanda C, Alam MS, Hamid H, Javed K, Dhulap A, Bano S, Ali Y.
    Journal: Bioorg Med Chem Lett; 2015 Oct 15; 25(20):4601-5. PubMed ID: 26384286.
    Abstract:
    Twenty one pyrazoline containing benzenesulfonylureas were synthesized and docked against PPAR-γ target. All the compounds were first screened for their antidiabetic potential by oral glucose tolerance test and then six active compounds were assessed on STZ diabetic model. It was found that five compounds showed significantly high antidiabetic activity in comparison to glibenclamide as well as rosiglitazone (standard drugs). The active compounds were evaluated for their effect on body weight since weight management is one of the main concerns associated with sulfonylureas. Finally, the most active compound 6f was shown to elevate PPAR-γ gene expression. The synthesized compounds were also screened for anticancer activity by National Cancer Institute. Five compounds (5i, 6e, 6g, 6i and 6j) were selected at one dose level and showed potency against cancers.
