Pioglitazone Hydrochloride Description
Pioglitazone Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt preparation of Pioglitazone, a specific ligand of PPAR-γ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ). Pioglitazone is a thiazolidinedione compound described to produce antiinflammatory and antiarteriosclerotic effects. Pioglitazone is demonstrated to prevent L-NAME-induced coronary inflammation and arteriosclerosis and to suppress increased TNF-α mRNA produced by aspirin-induced gastric mucosal injury. Pioglitazone Hydrochloride is an activator of PPAR γ.
