Solubility (25°C)* In vitro DMSO 79 mg/mL (201.06 mM)
Ethanol 7 mg/mL (17.81 mM)
Water Insoluble
In vivo (Add solvents to the product individually and in order)
Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O
2.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 40 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to make it clear; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Pioglitazone HCl (AD-4833, U-72107E) is an inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C8 and CYP3A4 enzymes. Pioglitazone HCl inhibits CYP2C8, CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 with Ki of 1.7 μM, 11.8 μM and 32.1 μM, respectively. Pioglitazone HCl is also a selective peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) agonist with EC50 of 0.93 μM and 0.99 μM for human PPARγ and mouse PPARγ, respectively. Pioglitazone HCl inhibits mitochondrial iron uptake, lipid peroxidation, and subsequent ferroptosis.

In vitro

Pioglitazone inhibits LPS-induced iNOS expression and NO generation, and inhibition of iNOS is sufficient to protect dopaminergic neurons against LPS insult. Pioglitazone protects dopaminergic neurons against LPS insult at least via inhibiting iNOS expression and NO generation, which is potentially mediated via inhibition of p38 MAPK activity. Pioglitazone inhibits LPS-induced phosphorylation of p38 MAPK. [1]
In vivo

Pioglitazone administered orally (0.3-3 mg/kg/d for 7 days) dose dependently reduces hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and hyperinsulinemia in male fatty rats. Pioglitazone improves glucose tolerance and augmentes the glycemic response to exogenous insulin and clearance of plasma triglyceride in rats. [2] Pioglitazone-treated transgenic mice reveals improved muscle strength and body weight, exhibits a delayed disease onset, and survives significantly longer than nontreated SOD1-G93A mice. [3] Pioglitazone markedly decreases hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hyperinsulinemia, and glucoseintolerance characterized as insulin resistant states in these rats and mice. Pioglitazone potentiates insulin-mediated glucose metabolism in the diaphragm and adipose tissues of yellow KK mice and enhanced the glycemic response to exogenous insulin in Zucker fatty rats. [4] Pioglitazone results in a reduction in the number of activated microglia and reactive astrocytes in the hippocampus and cortex of APPV717I transgenic mice. Pioglitazone decreases beta-secretase-1 (BACE1) mRNA and protein levels in APPV717I transgenic mice. [5]
