Description:	Pioglitazone is a potent and selective PPARγ agonist with high affinity binding to the PPARγ ligand-binding domain with EC50 of 0.93 and 0.99 μM for human and mouse PPARγ, respectively.
Target:	PPARδ:0.01 μM (EC50, Human PPARδ) PPARα:0.93 μM (EC50, Human PPARα) PPARγ:43 μM (EC50, Human PPARγ)
In Vivo:	The serum-free fatty acid and triglyceride levels as well as adipocyte sizes in ob/ob and adipo-/- ob/ob mice are unchanged after 10 mg/kg Pioglitazone but are significantly reduced to a similar degree after 30 mg/kg Pioglitazone. Moreover, the expressions of TNFα and resistin in adipose tissues of ob/ob and adipo-/- ob/ob mice are unchanged after 10 mg/kg Pioglitazone but are decreased after 30 mg/kg Pioglitazone. Thus, Pioglitazone-induced amelioration of insulin resistance and diabetes may occur adiponectin dependently in the liver and adiponectin independently in skeletal muscle[3]. Pioglitazone (10 mg/kg per d) treatment significantly attenuates the loss of body weight (BW) and cardiac hypertrophy. Pioglitazone treatment significantly reduces the elevated serum glucose levels and markedly improved the associated dyslipidemia. Furthermore, there is a slight but significant increase in serum creatinine level in D rats over their N controls (P <0.05). However, a marked renal dysfunction is observed in diabetic nephropathic (DN) group (P<0.05). Moreover, DN rats exhibits the highest serum activity of CK-MB, relative to both N and D rats (P<0.05). Pioglitazone is able to decrease the elevated serum levels of both creatinine and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB)[4].
In Vitro:	AGEs-induced beta cell necrosis is completely abrogated by adding Pioglitazone to the AGEs culture medium. Furthermore Pioglitazone completely prevented any AGEs-induced increment in caspase-3 activation, thereby restoring caspase-3 activity to the same levels as the control cells. As expected AG is able to counteract AGEs-induced impaired viability[2].
Cell Assay:	In order to evaluate cell proliferation, HIT-T15 cells are seeded on 96-well plates (3×104 cells/well) and cultured for 5 days as described. Viable cells are determined using the Cell Titer 96 Aqueous One Solution Cell Proliferation Assay. To evaluate cell apoptosis and cell necrosis, HIT-T15 cells are plated on 6-well dishes (7×105 cells/well) for 5 days in standard conditions (CTR) or in the presence of AGEs (AGEs) with or without Pioglitazone (0.5 or 1 μM) or AG (1 mM). They are then processed to measure both the activity of caspase-3 and the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (a stable cytosolic enzyme that is a marker of cell membrane damage and cell death due to necrosis) using Cytotox 96 Non Radioactive Cytotoxicity Assay[2].
Animal Administration:	Mice[3] 10 mg/kg Pioglitazone HCl or vehicle (0.25% carboxymethylcellulose) is adnimistered to ob/ob and adipo-/- ob/ob mice by oral gavage once daily for 14 consecutive days. 30 mg/kg Pioglitazone or vehicle is also adnimistered to ob/ob and adipo-/- ob/ob mice by oral gavage once daily for 14 consecutive days. Rats[4] Male Wistar albino rats (weighing 250±20 g) are ued.Rats that achieved serum glucose level ≥250 mg/dL and serum creatinine level ≥1.5 mg/dL are divided into 2 groups (n=10 per each group): diabetic nephropathic (DN) group in which rats received an equal amount of vehicle (0.5% carboxy methyl cellulose) and Pioglitazone-treated (DN+Pio) group in which rats treated with Pioglitazone. Pioglitazone (10 mg/kg BW) is given orally by gastric gavage, once daily, for 4 weeks.

Cat. No.	Product name	Field of application
DC31079	Abarelix	Abarelix is a synthetic decapeptide and antagonist of naturally occurring gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). Abarelix directly and competitively binds to and blocks the gonadotropin releasing hormone receptor in the anterior pituitary gland, thereby inhibiting the secretion and release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). In males, the inhibition of LH secretion prevents the release of testosterone. As a result, this may relieve symptoms associated with prostate hypertrophy or prostate cancer, since testosterone is required to sustain prostate growth.
DC31074	Isopropyl myristate	Isopropyl myristate is the ester of isopropyl alcohol and myristic acid.
DC79856	EVT0185	EVT0185 is an orally active ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) inhibitor. EVT0185 is converted to a CoA thioester in the liver by SLC27A2 and interacts with the CoA-binding site of ACLY. EVT0185-CoA inhibits ACLY activity with an IC50 of 2.5 μM. EVT0185 can phenocopy the immune and antitumour effects of genetic ACLY deletion. EVT0185 can increase tumour-infiltrating B cells and chemokine CXCL13 levels. EVT0185 can be used for the research of cancer, such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

NCGC00685960 increases H3K27 trimethylation levels in ovarian cancer cells and inhibits α-SMA expression in NNMT-expressing ovarian fibroblasts. NCGC00685960 reduces 1-MNA levels, reverses SAM and H3K27 hypomethylation and significantly impairs collagen contractility in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). NCGC00685960 can be used for cancers research.
DC79112	Simepdekinra	Simepdekinra (Compound 221) is a IL-17A modulator with IC50s ≤10  nM and 10-100 nM for IL-17A/A HEK-Blue and IL-17A/F HEK-Blue cells. Simepdekinra can be used for inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis, ankylosing spondylitis and psoriatic arthritis research.
