Our work shows that sulfonylureas and glinides additionally bind to PPARγ and exhibit PPARγ agonistic activity. This activity was predicted in silico by virtual screening and confirmed in vitro in a binding assay, a transactivation assay, and by measuring the expression of PPARγ target genes.

The most active of these compounds, gliquidone, is shown to be as potent as pioglitazone at inducing PPARγ target gene expression. This dual mode of action of sulfonylureas and glinides may open new perspectives for the molecular pharmacology of antidiabetic drugs, because it provides evidence that drugs can be designed that target both the sulfonylurea receptor and PPARγ. Targeting both receptors could increase pancreatic insulin secretion and improve insulin resistance. Glinides, sulfonylureas, and other acidified sulfonamides may be promising leads in the development of new PPARγ agonists.
