Peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors (PPARα, γ and δ) are potentially effective targets for Type 2 diabetes mellitus therapy. The severe effects of known glitazones and the successfully approved agents (saroglitazar and lobeglitazone) motivated us to study novelly potent PPARs drugs with improved safety profile. In this work, we received 15 carboxylic acids based on the combination principle to integrate the polar head of bezafibrate with the hydrophobic tail of pioglitazone. Another 12 tetrazoles based on the bioisosterism principle were obtained accordingly. Furthermore, in vitro PPARs transactivation assays on these 3- or 4-alkoxy substituted phenoxy derivatives afforded six compounds. Interactions and binding stability from the docking analysis and 20 ns molecular dynamic simulations confirmed the representative compounds to be suitable and plausible for PPARs pockets. The above-mentioned results demonstrated that the compounds may be used as reference for further optimization for enhanced PPARs activities and wide safety range.
