摘要

A new class of non-agonist ligands target the transcription factor PPAR gamma and promote expression of insulin-sensitizing adipokines. They have potent antidiabetic actions, yet they lack several of the adverse effects commonly associated with thiazolidinediones. The ligands may represent a new class of anti-diabetes medications that preserve the most beneficial effects of PPAR gamma activation without imparting major side effects, which have limited the clinical usefulness of thiazolidinediones.
