In vitro: Troglitazone significantly inhibits cell growth by cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death. Troglitazone also downregulates surface expression of CD97, a novel dedifferentiation marker, in FTC-133 cells and upregulated sodium iodide symporter (NIS) mRNA in TPC-1 and FTC-133 cells. Troglitazone, a PPARγ agonist, induces antiproliferation and redifferentiation in thyroid cancer cell lines. Troglitazone induces Erk phosphorylation in human prostate cancer cells via a PPARγ-independent signaling pathway. TGZ(Troglitazone) up-regulates nitric oxide synthesis, induces the p53 pathway, inhibits cholesterol biosynthesis, induces p21 cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, has antioxidant function, and activates extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) in a PPARγ-independent manner. TGZ induces Egr-1 expression by transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation. Egr-1 induction by TGZ results in the increase of binding affinity and transactivation of the promoter containing Egr-1 consensus sequences, thereby possibly inducing other anti-tumorigenic proteins. In vivo: Troglitazone is an effective antidiabetic drug with a fundamentally new mechanism of action. However, within a year after its widespread use, individual cases of liver injury and failure are reported. TGZ significantly inhibits tumor growth of human colorectal cancer cells (HCT-116), human breast cancer cells (MCF-7), and human prostate cancer cells (PC-3) in immunodeficient mice. Troglitazone attenuates pancreatic damage and inflammation in experimental chronic pancreatitis.

Preparation method | Growth experiments are done in a 96-well plate in hexaplicate. Cells at 85%-100% confluency are harvested with 1×Trypsin/EDTA solution and seeded into a 96-well plate at 3-5×103 cells per well depending upon growth rate and maintained in 200 μL H5 medium in a humidified incubator. After 24 hours, cells are incubated with different concentrations of troglitazone and the media was changed daily. Colorometric dimethyl-thiazol-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) proliferation assays are performed at 0, 2, 4, and 6 days after treatment. MTT (400 μg/mL) is added to each well and incubated for 3 hours. It is solubilized with 0.04 N HCl/iso-propanol/3% SDS and incubated for 1 hour. The optical densities in the 96-well plates are determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) microplate reader at 595 nm/620 nm. |

Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B 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.
