Table 1.

Potency and selectivity of GW501516, 5a, and 5b for human PPARs.

Compounds Potency (EC50 , nM) Selectivity index*
hPPARα hPPARδ hPPARγ hPPARα/hPPARδ hPPARγ/hPPARδ
GW501516 300 1.2 1200 250 1000
5a >10000 0.7 >10000 >14000 >14000
5b >10000 4.3 >10000 >2300 >2300

* Selectivity index represents the selectivity for the PPARδ isoform and is given as the ratio of EC50(hPPARα)/EC50(hPPARδ) or EC50(hPPARγ)/EC50(hPPARδ).

EC50: half maximal effective concentration; nd: not determined.
