Bioactivity | Naveglitazar (LY519818) is a nonthiozolidinedione peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) α-γ dual, γ-dominant agonist that has shown glucose-lowering potential in animal models[1]. |
Invitro | Naveglitazar, a non-thiazolidinediones (TZD), functions as a potent and efficacious insulin sensitizer in rodents, possessing a novel profile that may result in an improved therapeutic agent for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and associated dyslipidemia. The extent of in vitro binding of [3H]Naveglitazar to plasma proteins is evaluated by ultracentrifugation in mouse, rat, and monkey plasma. The mean percentages±S.E.M. of protein binding of radioactivity in plasma over the concentration range of 0.1 to 1000 ng/ml after in vitro incubation at 37°C for 60 min are 99.5%±0.1% (mice), 99.6%±0.1% (rat), and 99.6%±0.3% (monkey). These results show that Naveglitazar is highly bound to plasma proteins among the species examined, and binding is independent of concentration[1]. |
In Vivo | [14C]Naveglitazar is quickly absorbed and moderately metabolized before elimination. After oral administration, 47, 31, and 62% of the radioactivity, as assessed by AUC values, are circulating as metabolites in mice, rats, and monkeys, respectively. Half-lives for Naveglitazar and radioactivity are similar within each species; however, monkeys have substantially longer half-lives in comparison to mice and rats. Naveglitazar and radioactivity are slowly cleared from the system circulation in all species evaluated[1]. |
