Biochem/physiol Actions

MCC-555 is a thiazolidinedione class anti-diabetic compound. In rodent models, MCC-555 attenuates the development of diabetes, maintains B-cell function and improves insulin sensitivity. The compound MCC-555 also inhibits proliferation of several cancer cell lines and reduces tumor growth in xenograft models.

MCC-555 is a novel PPARα/γ dual ligand of the thiazolidinedione class and was recently developed as an anti-diabetic drug with unique properties. MCC-555 also has anti-proliferative activity through growth inhibition and apoptosis induction in several cancer cell types. Our group

1. Young (6-week-old) pre-diabetic Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats displaying impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), moderate hyperglycaemia and hyperinsulinaemia were treated with the novel thiazolidinedione, MCC-555, for 28 days, during which time beta-cell failure and progression to overt diabetes occurs. 2.

Apoptosis and/or differentiation induction caused by the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) ligand is a promising approach to cancer therapy. The thiazolidinedione derivative MCC-555 has an apoptotic activity in human colorectal cancer cells, accompanied by up-regulation of a proapoptotic nonsteroidal

RWJ-241947 (MCC-555) is a novel peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma ligand of the thiazolidinedione class that was recently developed as an antidiabetic drug with unique properties. Some thiazolidinediones have anticancer activity against solid and hematological malignancies; the anticancer potency of RWJ-241947 has

The Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rat is a model of impaired insulin sensitivity arising from hyperphagia owing to a mutation in the leptin receptor. In time, young ZDF rats, which are not initially diabetic, develop impaired pancreatic beta-cell function leading
