Overview
abstract
Beginning with a moderately potent PPARgamma agonist 9, a series of potent and highly subtype-selective PPARalpha agonists was identified through a systematic SAR study. Based on the results of the efficacy studies in the hamster and dog models of dyslipidemia and the desired pharmacokinetic data, the optimized compound 39 was selected for further profiling.
