Biological Activity
| Targets | PPARγ1 30 nM (EC50) PPARγ2 100 nM (EC50) |
| ln Vitro | Rosiglitazone sodium is a potent and selective activator of PPARγ, with EC50s of 30 nM and 100 nM for PPARγ1 and PPARγ2, respectively, and a Kd of appr 40 nM for PPARγ. Rosiglitazone (BRL49653, 0.1, 1,10 μM) promotes differentiation of C3H10T1/2 stem cells to adipocytes[1]. Rosiglitazone (Compound 6) activates PPARγ, with an EC50 of 60 nM[2]. Rosiglitazone (1 μM) activates PPARγ, which binds to NF-α1 promoter to activate gene transcription in neurons. Rosiglitazone (1 μM) also protects Neuro2A cells and hippocampal neurons against oxidative stress, and up-regulates BCL-2 expression in an NF-α1-dependent manner[3]. Rosiglitazone completely inhibits TRPM3 with IC50 values of 9.5 and 4.6 μM against nifedipine- and PregS-evoked activity, but such effects are not via PPARγ. Rosiglitazone inhibits TRPM2 at higher concentration, with an IC50 of appr 22.5 μM. Rosiglitazone is a strong stimulator of TRPC5 channels, with an EC50 of ∼30 μM[4]. |
| ln Vivo | Rosiglitazone (5 mg/kg, p.o.) decreases the serum glucose in diabetic rats. Rosiglitazone also decreases IL-6, TNF-α, and VCAM-1 levels in diabetic group. Rosiglitazone in combination with losartan increases glucose compared to diabetic and Los-treated groups. Rosiglitazone significantly ameliorates endothelial dysfunction indicated by a significantly lower contractile response to PE and Ang II and enhancement of ACh-provoked relaxation in aortas isolated from diabetic rats[5]. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | May dissolve in DMSO (in most cases), if not, try other solvents such as H2O, Ethanol, or DMF with a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples. Injection Formulations (e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80： Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 ：Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).
