The FASEB Journal, 2007 Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) is a nuclear hormone receptor that plays a key role in adipocyte differentiation. PPARα belongs to the same nuclear receptor family and regulates genes involved in fatty acid oxidation. Previously, we had shown that lycopene (LYC) feeding decreased expression of PPARγ and its target gene, fatty acid ...
