Biological Activity

Pioglitazone hydrochloride is a selective PPARγ agonist (EC50 = 0.69 μM). Thiazolidinedione (TZD) derivative and antidiabetic agent; improves insulin sensitivity. Also enhances proliferation and survival of mESCs and acts synergistically with Y-27632 (Cat. No. 1254) to improve survival of dissociated single hPSCs and increase colony formation.
