In vitro | In mouse models of Parkinson's disease (PD) using MPTP, Pioglitazone reduces activation of microglia, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) positive cells, and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) positive cells in the striatum and substantia nigra pars compacta. Administering approximately 20 mg/kg of Pioglitazone daily attenuates MPTP-induced neuroglial activation and prevents the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc). Additionally, in 10-month-old APPV717I transgenic mice, Pioglitazone decreases the number of activated microglia and reactive astrocytes in the hippocampus and cortex. Pioglitazone also reduces mRNA and protein levels of beta-secretase-1 (BACE1), as well as the levels of soluble Abeta1-42 peptide. |
In vivo | Pioglitazone is primarily metabolized by CYP2C8, with secondary metabolism by CYP3A4. |
