Hepatic lipid homeostasis by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma 2
Liver Research, 2018 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ or PPARG) is a ligand-activated transcription factor belonging to the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. It plays a master role in the differentiation and proliferation of adipose tissues. It has

Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma Polymorphisms and Coronary Heart Disease
PPAR Research, 2009 Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARG) gene have been associated with cardiovascular risk factors, particularly obesity and diabetes. We assessed the relationship between 4 PPARG SNPs (C-681G, C-

Oleamide activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ)
Lipids in Health and Disease, 2012 Background Oleamide (ODA) is a fatty acid primary amide first identified in the cerebrospinal fluid of sleep-deprived cats, which exerts effects on vascular and neuronal tissues, with a variety of molecular targets including cannabinoid receptors and gap

Relaxin signaling activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2010 Relaxin is a polypeptide hormone that triggers multiple signaling pathways through its receptor RXFP1 (relaxin family peptide receptor 1). Many of relaxin's functions, including vascular and antifibrotic effects, are similar to those induced by activation of PPARgamma.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma: from adipogenesis to carcinogenesis [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Endocrinology, 2001 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 adipogenesis and insulin sensitization.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma agonists in renal disease [PDF]
European Journal of Endocrinology, 2006 Type 2 diabetes is a well recognised cause of chronic renal failure (CRF). Only few oral antidiabetic drugs can be used for treating type 2 diabetes in patients with CRF. Among them are repaglinide, a rapid-acting prandial insulin releaser, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonists, such as rosiglitazone and pioglitazone ...

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma and BRCA1 [PDF]
Endocrine-Related Cancer, 2019 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma agonists have been proposed as breast cancer preventives. Individuals who carry a mutated copy of BRCA1, DNA repair-associated gene, are at increased risk for development of breast cancer. Published data in the field suggest there could be interactions between peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ...
