NOVEL SUBSTITUTED THIAZOLIDINEDIONE DERIVATIVES AS ANTI-DIABETIC AGENTS
Rekha S.* and Chandrashekhara S.
ABSTRACT
A set of novel of 5-[4-(substituted) benzylidene] thiazolidinediones were synthesized and evaluated as potential anti-diabetic agents. Thiazolidinediones scaffold- based molecules were synthesized and validated on a mice hyperglycemia model caused by dexamethasone. As a result few derivatives showed anti-hyperglycemic activities against standard drug rosiglitazone. This research provides useful clues for further design and discovery of anti-diabetic agents.
Keywords: Thiazolidinediones, anti-diabetic, anti-hyperglycemic, dexamethasone, rosiglitazone.
