4-氯-ALPHA-[3-(三氟甲基)苯氧基]苯乙酸 2-(乙酰基氨基)乙酯

Arhalofenate (MBX 102) is a prodrug ester, that is rapidly and completely modified in vivo by non-specific serum esterases to the mature free acid form Arhalofenate (MBX 102) acid. Arhalofenate (MBX 102) shows a dose-dependent activation of mouse GAL4-PPAR-γ with EC ₅₀ s of appr 12 μM.

Arhalofenate (MBX 102) (100 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly increases the glucose infusion rate and decreases hepatic glucose output in the clamped state in Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats. Arhalofenate (MBX 102) (60 mg/kg) leads to a dramatic decrease in plasma and also results in a dose-dependent, significant decrease in the insulin resistance indexinsulin levels. Arhalofenate (MBX 102) (100 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly decreases triglyceride, free fatty acid, and cholesterol levels in ZDF rats. MBX-102 significantly reduces fasting blood glucose, confirming that Arhalofenate (MBX 102) is an efficacious antidiabetic agent. Arhalofenate (MBX 102) (100 mg/kg, p.o.) also significantly lowers fasting plasma insulin, and robustly decreases fasting plasma triglycerides after 32 days of treatment in Zucker Fatty (ZF) rats.
