MCC-555 is a thiazolidinedione class anti-diabetic compound.
MCC-555 is a thiazolidinedione class anti-diabetic compound. In rodent models, MCC-555 attenuates the development of diabetes, maintains B-cell function and improves insulin sensitivity. The compound MCC-555 also inhibits proliferation of several cancer cell lines and reduces tumor growth in xenograft models.
Freshly isolated adult rat ventricular cardiomyocytes have been used to characterize the action profile of the new thiazolidinedione antidiabetic drug MCC-555. Preincubation of cells with the compound (100 microM for 30 min or 10 microM for 2 h) did not

Various lipophilicity aspects of five well-known PPAR-gamma ligands, belonging to the thiazolidinedione (TZD) class, ciglitazone (CSZ), troglitazone (TGZ), netoglitazone (NGZ) and the ampholytic pioglitazone (PGZ) and rosiglitazone (RGZ), have been explored. The compounds were found to be highly lipophilic as
Novel compounds having a dual pharmacophore were synthesised and evaluated for their insulin sensitiser and anti-inflammatory properties in different animal models.

Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) gamma is a nuclear receptor involved primarily in lipid and glucose metabolism. PPARgamma is also expressed in several cancer types, and has been suggested to play a role in tumor progression. PPARgamma agonists have been
MCC-555 is a novel thiazolidinedione which reduces plasma glucose concentrations in Type 2 diabetes mellitus models due to enhancement of insulin sensitivity. A highly sensitive and selective quantitative method to accurately determine MCC-555 in rat plasma is crucial to the
