Inspired by the well-known PPARγ partial agonism of angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) antagonists exemplified by an antihypertensive drug, Telmisartan, efforts to identify compounds with the dual activities have been pursued in order to control the two major metabolic disorders, hypertension and hyperglycemia simultaneously. Lead compound 18 derived from the AT1R antagonist, Fimasartan, has successfully presented the possibility to control the medical conditions by a single molecule.
