A REVIEW ON 2, 4- THIAZOLIDINEDIONE IN TYPE-2 DIABETES

Journal Name:

Publication Year:

Abstract (2. Language): 
Diabetes mellitus is associated with impaired glucose metabolism that leads to an increase in blood glucose levels and free radicals production. Type II diabetes affects millions of people in the United States, and its incidence are increasing at an alarming rate. A key underlying feature of type 2 diabetes is insulin resistance, which is associated with characteristic clinical features and increased cardiovascular risk. Thiazolidinediones are well known for reduction in blood glucose level. The thiazolidinediones (TZDs) or 'glitazones' are a new class of oral antidiabetic drugs that improve metabolic control in patients with type 2 diabetes through the improvement of insulin sensitivity. TZDs exert their antidiabetic effects through a mechanism that involves activation of the gamma isoform of the peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor (PPAR gamma), a nuclear receptor. Several new 2, 4-TZDs such as pioglitazone, rosiglitazone have been marketed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and in the prevention of its late complications.
