General description

2,4-Thiazolidinedione is a well-known peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) activator. Its effect on aging process using kidneys from Fischer 344 rats has been reported. A library of conjugates of 2,4-thiazolidinedione has been synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation followed by reduction using hydrogen gas and Pd/C catalyst. Knoevenagel condensation of various aromatic aldehydes with 2,4-thiazolidinedione in polyethylene glycol-300 has been reported.

Application

2,4-Thiazolidinedione may be used in the synthesis of sixteen 5-arylidene-2,4-thiazolidinediones, via ultrasound-promoted aldol condensation reaction. It may be used as starting material for the synthesis of drugs with antihyperglycemic activity.

PPARγ agonists [thiazolidinediones (TZDs)] are known to exert anti-fibrotic effects in the kidney. In addition, we previously demonstrated that sphingosine kinase 1 (SK-1) and intracellular sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), by reducing the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), have a protective

We present a new class of inhibitors of pancreatic cholesterol esterase (CEase) based on 'priviledged' 5-benzylidenerhodanine and 5-benzylidene-2,4-thiazolidinedione structural scaffolds. The lead structures (5-benzylidenerhodanine 4a and 5-benzylidene-2,4-thiazolidinedione 4b) were identified in an in-house screening and these inhibited CEase with some

Skin injuries in mammals are healed through repair or regeneration. Our previous studies demonstrated that deficient expression of the transcription factor Foxn1 in epidermis of nude mice accounts for their skin's pronounced regenerative properties. Since homeostasis within the skin depends

Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disease caused by a CAG trinucleotide expansion in the Huntingtin (Htt) gene. The resultant mutant Htt protein (mHtt) forms aggregates in the brain (e.g., cortex and striatum), and causes devastating neuronal degeneration.
