Abstract

Results. A series of compounds (1b− 11) was chosen from the literature that had been previously tested in rodent models of diabetes. 4, 7, 9-11 Clofibric acid (1b), the active form of clofibrate (1a), 15 was purchased from Sigma. Compounds 2− 11 were synthesized by the literature methods. 7, 9-11 The compounds were tested in a transient transfection assay in CV-1 cells for their ability to activate PPARs. To allow comparison of the relative ...
