The PPARγ Agonist Rosiglitazone Suppresses Syngeneic Mouse SCC (Squamous Cell Carcinoma) Tumor Growth through an Immune-Mediated Mechanism [PDF]
Recent evidence suggests that PPARγ agonists may promote anti-tumor immunity. We show that immunogenic PDV cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) tumors are rejected when injected intradermally at a low cell number (1 × 106) into immune competent ...

Oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) causes activation and dysfunction of endothelial cells through NFκB activation after binding process of ox-LDL to LOX-1. One of ox-LDL components had been known as the activator of PPARγ. This study was done to see the effect of ox-LDL on NFκB and PPARγactivation and apoptosis of HUVEC’s culture.
