A library of novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole and 2-4-thiazolidinedione based bis-heterocycles 7 (a-r) has been synthesized which exhibited significant PPAR-gamma transactivation and blood glucose lowering effect comparable with the standard drugs Pioglitazone and Rosiglitazone. Compounds 7m and 7r did not cause body weight gain and were found to be free from hepatotoxic and cardiotoxic side effects. Compounds 7m and 7r increased PPAR-gamma gene expression by 2.10 and 2.00 folds, respectively in comparison to the standard drugs Pioglitazone (1.5 fold) and Rosiglitazone (1.0 fold). Therefore the compounds 7m and 7r may be considered as potential candidates for development of new antidiabetic agents. (C) 2014 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
