文摘

Design, synthesis, and in vitro bioevaluation of a new class of potential dual PPARα and γ agonists discovered through a structure-driven design paradigm are described. The 7-hydroxy-benzopyran-4-one moiety (includes flavones, flavanones, and isoflavones) is the key pharmacophore of these novel molecules, exhibiting similarity to the core structure of both fibrates and thiazolidinediones. New lead PPAR ligands were identified from “natraceuticals” and synthetic analogues. In total, 77 molecules, including chalcones, flavones, flavanones, isoflavones, and pyrazole derivatives, were screened and structure−activity relationship studies of the dual agonists undertaken. Compounds 68, 70, 72, and 76 were identified as novel and potent dual PPARα and γ agonists. These novel molecules may have the potential to be the future leads in PPAR-related disorders, including type II diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome.
