Abstract As a disease closely related to the metabolic syndrome, diabetes has become a public health issue that severely affects many people’s quality of life. The search for novel anti-diabetic agents remains the cornerstone to control this challenging disease. Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), a negative regulator of insulin and leptin signaling pathways, has turned out to be a potential target of type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. In recent years, the development of novel anti-diabetic drugs based on PTP1B inhibitors has captured the attention of many researchers. Thiazole, a five-membered heterocycle containing sulfur and nitrogen atoms, has been considered as an essential core skeleton for various active compounds. Furthermore, thiazolidines, representing a series of compounds with saturated thiazole rings, widely exist in natural products and synthetic compounds with a variety of pharmacological activities. Here, we focus on the emphasis of PTP1B in diabetes and the development of PTP1B inhibitors based on thiazole and thiazolidine derivatives in the past decade. Many PTP1B inhibitors and their chemical structures, selectivity, potency, and structure-activity relationship have been elaborated. The great majority of PTP1B inhibitors containing thiazole and thiazolidine moieties described in this review exhibit preferable activities, which would be of importance for the rational design and efficient application of PTP1B inhibitors with antidiabetes activity.

Protein tyrosine phosphorylation is one of the most crucial mechanisms for regulating cell functions, which is a reversible process controlled by protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). PTKs can transfer phosphate, while PTPs are responsible for catalyzing the hydro
