The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR gamma) has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colon cancer. The observation that PPAR gamma agonists, through immune modulation, protect against in ...
Activators of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-alpha, a nuclear hormone receptor that heterodimerizes with retinoid X receptor, stimulate epidermal differentiation and inhibit proliferation. Here we determined the anti-inflammatory effects of per ...
PPAR-gamma/RXR heterodimers play a key regulatory role in murine placental development. We report here that PPAR-gamma and RXR-alpha are highly expressed in cultured primary extravillous cytotrophoblasts (EVCT) isolated from human first-trimester placenta. ...
Considerable controversy exists in determining the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) in obesity. Two purebred congenic strains of PPARalpha-null mice were developed to study the role of this receptor in modulating lipid t ...
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) is nuclear receptor that controls the expression of a large number of genes involved in adipocyte differentiation, lipid storage and insulin sensitization. PPARgamma is bound and activated by ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear hormone receptors, initially described as molecular targets for synthetic compounds that induce peroxisome proliferation. PPARgamma is the best characterized of the PPARs. The heterodimer of P ...
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) is highly expressed in the colon mucosa and its activation has been reported to protect against colitis. We studied the involvement of PPARgamma and its heterodimeric partner, the retinoid X ...
Hypertriglyceridemia is a frequent complication accompanying the treatment of patients with either retinoids or rexinoids, [retinoid X receptor (RXR)-selective retinoids]. To investigate the cellular and molecular basis for this observation, we have studie ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear hormone receptors, initially described as molecular targets for synthetic compounds inducing peroxisome proliferation. PPAR-gamma, the best characterized of the PPARs, plays a crucial role in ...
Cholesterol and bile acid metabolism is tightly controlled by nuclear receptors. The liver X receptor, an oxysterol-activated nuclear receptor, limits cholesterol accumulation in the body both by stimulating reverse cholesterol transport and by inhibiting ...
