Troglitazone-d4 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of troglitazone by GC- or LC-MS. Troglitazone is a selective agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ; EC50s = 0.78 and 0.55 μM for the mouse and human receptors, respectively, in a transactivation assay).1 It is selective for PPARγ over PPARα and PPARδ, at which it is inactive at concentrations up to 10 μM. Troglitazone (500 mg/kg twice per day) exhibits antihyperglycemic and antihyperlipidemic properties in Zucker diabetic fatty rats, reducing plasma glucose and triglyceride levels by 61 and 87%, respectively.2 It also induces cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase in SK-HEP-1 and Hep3B hepatocellular carcinoma cells when used at a concentration of 10 μM and increases apoptosis in these cells at concentrations of 30 μM and higher.3 | [Uses]
Troglitazone-d4 is deuterium labeled Troglitazone. Troglitazone is a PPARγ agonist, with EC50s of 550 nM and 780 nM for human and murine?PPARγ receptor, respectively. | [References]
