Balaglitazone is an agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) γ, with an EC50 of 1.351 μM for human PPARγ. Balaglitazone reverses multidrug resistance (MDR) in K562/DOX cells. Balaglitazone (25 µM) increases Rh123 accumulation in K562/DOX cells, but does not increases MFI in K562 cells. Balaglitazone downregulates P-gp expression in K562/DOX cells, and such effects are via upregulation of PTEN in K562/DOX cells, and be abolished by PTEN inhibition.
In vivo, Balaglitazone (3 mg/kg, p.o.) shows antihyperglycaemic activity in fully diabetic and insulin resistant db/db mice, and is more potent than the full PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone. Balaglitazone (10 mg/kg, p.o.) suppresses overall glucose, decreases insulin levels, and increases bodyweight in male diet-induced obese rats, and such effects are equal to that of 30 mg/kg pioglitazone.

| Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
| Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
