Description

Balaglitazone is a selective partial PPARγ agonist with an EC50 of 1.351 μM for human PPARγ.

IC50 & Target

PPARγ

351 nM (EC50, Human PPARγ)

In Vitro

Balaglitazone is a selective partial PPARγ agonist with an EC50 of 1.351 μM[1]. Balaglitazone (5-100 μM) has equal cytotoxicity towards K562 and K562/DOX cells. Balaglitazone decreases doxorubicin cytotoxicity in K562 and K562/DOX cells, with IC50s of 0.117 μM and 0.53 μM, respectively. Balaglitazone reverses multidrug resistance (MDR) in K562/DOX cells. Balaglitazone (25 µM) increases Rh123 accumulation in K562/DOX cells, but does not increases MFI in K562 cells. Balaglitazone downregulates P-gp expression in K562/DOX cells, and such effects are via upregulation of PTEN in K562/DOX cells, and be abolished by PTEN inhibition[2].

In Vivo

Balaglitazone (3 mg/kg, p.o.) shows antihyperglycaemic activity in fully diabetic and insulin resistant db/db mice, and is more potent than the full PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone[1]. Balaglitazone (10 mg/kg, p.o.) suppresses overall glucose, decreases insulin levels, and increases bodyweight in male diet-induced obese rats, and such effects are equal to that of 30 mg/kg pioglitazone[3].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.32 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.32 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Cell Assay
[2]

MTT assay is used for cell viability analyses. Briefly, K562 and K562/DOX cells are seeded in a 96-well plate in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS at the density of 2 × 104 cells/well. After 24 h incubation, various concentrations of doxorubicin (DOX) with or without balaglitazone are diluted in RPMI-1640 medium (without FBS) and added into each well. Experiments for each group are performed in triplicates and with a blank control. After 48 h of treatment, the medium is removed and 200 μL of RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS and 10% MTT (5 mg/mL) is added. After incubation for another 4 h, the reduced intracellular formazan product is dissolved by replacing 100 μL of RPMI-1640 medium with the same volume of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Absorbance values are measured at 570 nm with a micro plate reader. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of each experiment is calculated. The resistance fold (RF) is calculated by dividing the IC50 value of treatment in resistant cells by the IC50 value of treatment in corresponding parental cells[2].

Animal Administration
[1]

Antihyperglycaemic effects of balaglitazone and rosiglitazone are assessed in adult male diabetic db/db mice. At 14 weeks of age, animals are randomised according to fasting blood glucose into 11 groups (n = 6). Mice are dosed orally once daily for 9 days with vehicle (0.2% carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) + 0.4% Tween-80 in saline) or increasing doses of either balaglitazone (0.1; 0.3; 1.0; 3.0; 10.0 mg/kg/day) or rosiglitazone (0.2; 0.6; 2.0; 6.0 mg/kg/day). After 7 days of treatment, plasma samples obtained in the morning (between 8:00 and 10:00 AM) are analysed for glucose and insulin. After 9 days of treatment, animals are exposed to an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT; 3.0 g/kg). The resulting area under the curve is calculated for each of the doses[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
