Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) plays a crucial role in optimizing peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) modulators by influencing metabolism, therapeutic efficacy, and safety. Rosiglitazone is primarily metabolized by cytochrome 2C8 (CYP2C8) and CYP2C9, with the CYP2C83 polymorphism increasing clearance, reducing efficacy, and altering fluid retention. Troglitazone metabolism via CYP3A4 and CYP2C8 generates a reactive quinone metabolite, depleting glutathione (GSH), elevating mitochondrial oxidative stress, and inducing hepatotoxicity.

1,3,4-thiadiazole can be produced in several ways and has a wide range of possible biological uses. As a result, scientists have created novel procedures for producing 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives and their use in medicine. Among the activities are Anticancer, anticonvulsant, antimicrobial, antifungal, antiinflammatory, antiHIV, antidiabetic, antitubercular, antifungal, and other properties.

Thiazolidinediones are potent anti-diabetic agents that act through the modulation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), a nuclear receptor. However, their full agonistic activity leads to severe side effects by stabilizing Helix12 through strong hydrogen bonding with the TYR473 residue.

With two or more medicines, multiple inhibitions are often accomplished DML techniques. In this study, we developed 30 quinazolinone derivatives as PARP1 and STAT3 dual inhibitors using DML methods and these compounds were tested for their dual inhibitory effect on PARP1 and STAT3 using docking, MM-GBSA, and molecular dynamics simulation investigations.
