The Role of PPAR Gamma in Systemic Sclerosis [PDF]
Fibrosis is recognized as an important feature of many chronic diseases, such as systemic sclerosis (SSc), an autoimmune disease of unknown etiology, characterized by immune dysregulation and vascular injury, followed by progressive fibrosis affecting ...

PPAR Gamma and Angiogenesis: Endothelial Cells Perspective [PDF]
We summarize the current knowledge concerning PPARγ function in angiogenesis. We discuss the mechanisms of action for PPARγ and its role in vasculature development and homeostasis, focusing on endothelial cells, endothelial progenitor cells, and bone ...

PPAR-gamma Fun(gi) With Prostaglandin. [PDF]
In our recent publication, we show for the first time that the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans is able to manipulate host cells by producing eicosanoids that mimic those found in the host. Using complementary in vivo zebrafish and in vitro macrophage cell culture models of Cryptococcus infection, we found that these eicosanoids manipulate host

Studies on the contribution of PPAR Gamma to tuberculosis physiopathology. [PDF]
IntroductionTuberculosis (TB) is a major health problem characterized by an immuno-endocrine imbalance: elevated plasma levels of cortisol and pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators, as well as reduced levels of dehydroepiandrosterone. The etiological agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), is captured by pulmonary macrophages (Mf), whose activation is ...

PPAR-gamma Signaling in Metabolic Homeostasis
INTRODUCTION: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-γ, or also known as nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group C member 3 (NR1C3), is a PPAR which serves as master regulator of adipocytes differentiation, and plays an important role in lipid ...

Angiotensin II, PPAR-Gamma and atherosclerosis [PDF]
Atherosclerosis is a complex, chronic disease state that usually arises from the converging action of several pathogenic processes, including hypertension, hyperlidemia, obesity and insulin resistance. Significantly, due to the increasing incidence of type 2 diabetes worldwide, several aspects of the renin-angiotensin system, including the capacity for
