The consequence of activating the nuclear hormone receptor, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma), which coordinates adipocyte differentiation, validates the concept, 'you are what you eat'. Excessive caloric intake leads to fat form ...
In a systematic search for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) target genes, we identified S3-12 and perilipin as novel direct PPAR-gamma target genes. Together with adipophilin and tail-interacting protein of 47 kDa, these genes ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) plays a role in adipocyte differentiation and insulin sensitization. We identified and characterized a new C/T substitution at position -689 (-689C>T) in the P2 promoter of PPARgamma in a putativ ...
We evaluated the effects of E2F1 on glucose homeostasis using E2F1(-/-) mice. E2F1(-/-) mice show an overall reduction in pancreatic size as the result of impaired postnatal pancreatic growth. Furthermore, these animals have dysfunctional beta cells, linke ...
We characterized the expression pattern of the nuclear receptors liver X receptor (LXR) alpha and beta during mouse embryonic development and in adulthood by in situ hybridization experiments. LXRalpha and LXRbeta are detected in the liver starting at 11.5 ...
This invention relates to oligonucleotide targeting agents and their use in the treatment of diseased cells by selective photochemotherapy (PCT). PCT is a method of treating human diseases and disorders, bacteriological indications and other pathological c ...
To detect bronchial carcinoma by autofluorescence, we measured in-vivo, in an in-vivo model, and in-vitro the spectra of tumor and normal tissue by a fiber-optic-spectrometer. The main difference between tumor and bronchial tissue is the intensity of the 5 ...
Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) present in the inner mitochondrial membrane are involved in uncoupling respiration from ATP synthesis. Five UCP isoforms have been identified but information about their presence and level of expression in the central nervous sys ...
This review highlights the presentations and discussions held during the 2003 Stock Conference in Lisbon focussed on the identification of new therapeutic targets for the treatment of obesity and identified through molecular and genetic studies. Transcript ...
Methodology was developed in order to rapidly and cost-efficiently screen whole water samples without extraction for the presence of dioxin-like compounds using a cell bioassay approach. Presence of dioxin-like compounds was indicated by the induction in t ...
