Azemiglitazone
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Azemiglitazone (MSDC-0602) is an orally active thiazolidinedione (TZD) -like molecule, which binds to PPARγ with low binding and activating affinity. Azemiglitazone inhibits mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC), which inhibits Alzheimer’s disease and diminishes nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) caused liver injury.

Biological Activity
Azemiglitazone (15 μM, 4 h) crosslinks specifically to MPC, inhibits pyruvate oxidation and glucose production in liver mitochondria with interaction with MPC2[3].
Azemiglitazone has low binding and activating affinity for PPARγ with IC50 of 18.25 μM[6].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Azemiglitazone (2-5 μM in blood, p.o for 2-4 weeks) improves mitochondrial respiratory rate in DIO C57BL/6 mice[6]. Azemiglitazone reduces NASH caused liver injury, prevents (2-5 μM in blood, p.o. for 12 weeks) and reverses (2-5 μM in blood, p.o. for 3 weeks) stellate cells activation and fibrosis in HTF-C diet feeding C57BL6/J mice[4].
Azemiglitazone (2-5 μM in blood, p.o.) causes weight loss and suppresses stellate cell activation with or without MPC function in HTF-C diet feeding LS-Mpc2-/-C57BL6/J mice[4].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.60 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.60 mM); Clear solution
