PPARγ and FFAR1 are valid targets for the management of type 2 diabetes.
Some thiazolidinediones (PPAR ligands) could activate FFAR1 with micromolar potency.
In this study, nineteen dual PPARγ/FFAR1 agonists were designed.
The design depends on using TZD head with diverse privileged structures.
Nine compounds showed promising dual activity.
