Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ (PPARγ) is a nuclear receptor and target for antidiabetics that increase insulin sensitivity. Owing to the side effects of PPARγ full agonists, research has recently focused on non-activating ligands of PPARγ, which increase insulin sensitivity with decreased side effects. Here, we present the crystal structures of inverse agonist SR10171 and a chemically related antagonist SR11023 bound to the PPARγ ligand-binding domain, revealing an allosteric swit ...[more]
