ciglitazone and Obesity

ciglitazone has been researched along with Obesity in 11 studies

ciglitazone: structure given in second source; PPAR agonist used for type II diabetes
ciglitazone : An aromatic ether that consists of 1,3-thiazolidine-2,4-dione with position 5 substituted by a 4-[(1-methylcyclohexyl)methoxy]benzyl group. A selective PPARgamma agonist.

Obesity: A status with BODY WEIGHT that is grossly above the recommended standards, usually due to accumulation of excess FATS in the body. The standards may vary with age, sex, genetic or cultural background. In the BODY MASS INDEX, a BMI greater than 30.0 kg/m2 is considered obese, and a BMI greater than 40.0 kg/m2 is considered morbidly obese (MORBID OBESITY).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Chronic administration of ADD-3878 for as long as 12 wk to young yellow KK mice, which were in the early stage of diabetes and obesity, depressed age-dependent rises in blood glucose, plasma triglyceride, and insulin without exerting any effect on obesity."5.27Reduction of insulin resistance in obese and/or diabetic animals by 5-[4-(1-methylcyclohexylmethoxy)benzyl]-thiazolidine-2,4-dione (ADD-3878, U-63,287, ciglitazone), a new antidiabetic agent. ( Fujita, T; Iwatsuka, H; Kawamatsu, Y; Sohda, T; Sugiyama, Y; Suzuoki, Z; Taketomi, S, 1983)
"Ciglitazone was also found to significantly attenuate the capacity of platelet-derived growth factor BB homodimer to induce sustained increases in intracellular free calcium."1.29Effects of ciglitazone on blood pressure and intracellular calcium metabolism. ( Benson, S; Feuerstein, BG; Hyun, WC; Kurtz, TW; Pershadsingh, HA; Szollosi, J, 1993)

( Fujita, T; Iwatsuka, H; Kawamatsu, Y; Sohda, T; Sugiyama, Y; Suzuoki, Z; Taketomi, S, 1983)
"Ciglitazone treatment, which decreases insulin resistance in obese animals and leads to normalization of glucose metabolism in their pancreatic tissue, restored the enzyme-synthesis rates towards normal, showing that the abnormalities of enzyme synthesis were linked to the insulin resistance rather than to the obese genotype itself."1.27Changes in individual rates of pancreatic enzyme and isoenzyme biosynthesis in the obese Zucker rat.
