HIDE SMILES / InChI
Mitoglitazone (previously known as MSDC-0160 or CAY-10415) is a mTOT (mitochondrial target of thiazolidinediones) modulator that targets the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC), which is a key controller of cellular metabolism. MSDC-0160 is modulated MPC and act as insulin sensitizers without activating PPAR gamma. (Mitoglitazone exhibits very low binding affinity and activity at PPARγ). Mitoglitazone has been used in trials phase II studying the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes and Alzheimer's disease; the treatment for diabetes was discontinued. In addition, MSDC-0160 has demonstrated significant neuroprotective effects in the En1+/- mouse model of Parkinson’s disease via modulation of the mTOR-autophagy signaling cascade.

Sample Use Guides

150 mg capsules given once daily for 90 days
Route of Administration: Oral
Treatment of Human Islets with MSDC-0160 (MITOGLITAZONE) activates AMPK and downregulates mTOR. Human islets were cultured with 5 mM glucose and MSDC-0160 (1–50 µM) for 24 h. Phosphorylation of mTOR was significantly decreased at 20 and 50 µM MSDC-0160. This inhibition inversely correlated with increased phosphorylation of AMPK and its downstream target acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC). Consistent with the reduction in the amount of phosphorylated mTOR, treatment with MSDC-0160 also produced a decrease in the phosphorylation of S6, a downstream indicator of the mTOR pathway. This was evident after 4 days of culture under these conditions, but occurred as early as 90 minutes into the treatment. Taken together, these data suggest that MSDC-0160 restores the insulin signaling pathway at least in part by modulating mTOR activity.
