Potent anti-diabetic effects of MHY908, a newly synthesized PPAR α/γ dual agonist in db/db mice.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) α/γ dual agonists have been developed to alleviate metabolic disorders and have the potential to be used as therapeutic agents for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In this study, we investigated the effects of a newly synthesized PPAR α/γ dual agoni...
