Chondrosarcoma and Peroxisome Proliferator‐Activated Receptor [PDF]
Induction of differentiation and apoptosis in cancer cells by ligands of PPARγ is a novel therapeutic approach to malignant tumors. Chondrosarcoma (malignant cartilage tumor) and OUMS‐27 cells (cell line established from grade III human chondrosarcoma) express PPARγ.

Regulation of genes involved in carnitine homeostasis by PPARa across different species (rat, mouse, pig, cattle, chicken, and human) [PDF]
Recent studies in rodents convincingly demonstrated that PPAR-alpha is a key regulator of genes involved in carnitine homeostasis, which serves as a reasonable explanation for the phenomenon that energy deprivation and fibrate treatment, both of which ...

Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors [PDF]
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) are nuclear receptors acting as transcription factors on numerous target genes after heterodimerization with the retinoid X receptor. PPAR-α and PPAR-γ may be activated by different agonists, although the endogenous ligands are unknown.

Peroxisome Proliferator–Activated Receptors and The Metabolic Syndrome
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a growing threat to global health by virtue of its association with insulin resistance, inflammation, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, collectively known as the metabolic syndrome (MetS).
