Abstract: The overexpression of the Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), a key role in the development of insulin resistance, diabetes (T2DM) and obesity, seems to have a substantial impact as a negative regulator of the insulin and leptin signaling pathways. Therefore, inhibiting PTP1B is a prospective therapeutic approach for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. However, the pyrazole scaffold is expected to be of significant pharmaceutical interest due to its broad spectrum of pharmacological actions. This study aims to focus on the significance of pyrazole scaffold in medicinal chemistry, the impact of PTP1B in diabetes and the therapeutic approach of pyrazole scaffold to treat T2DM. A comprehensive analysis of the published literature in several pharmaceutical and medical databases, such as the Web of Science (WoS), PubMed, ResearchGate, ScienceDirect etc., were indeed successfully completed and classified accordingly.

Results: As reviewed, the various derivatives of the pyrazole scaffold exhibited prominent PTP1B inhibitory activity. The result showed that derivatives of oxadiazole and dibenzyl amine, chloro substituents, 1, 3-diaryl pyrazole derivatives with rhodanine-3-alkanoic acid groups, naphthalene and also 1, 3, 5-triazine-1H-pyrazole-triazolothiadiazole derivatives, octyl and tetradecyl derivative, indole- and N-phenylpyrazole-glycyrrhetinic acid derivatives with trifluoromethyl group, 2,3-pyrazole ring-substituted-4,4-dimethyl lithocholic acid derivatives with 4- fluoro phenyl substituted and additional benzene ring in the pyrazole scaffold significantly inhibits PTP1B. In silico study observed that pyrazole scaffold interacted with amino acid residues like TYR46, ASP48, PHE182, TYR46, ALA217 and ILE219. Diabetes is a metabolic disorder that elevates the risk of mortality and severe complications. PTP1B is a crucial component in the management of diabetes and obesity. As a result, PTP1B is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of T2DM and obesity in humans. We concluded that the pyrazole scaffold has prominent inhibitory potential against PTP1B.
