Effect of rosiglitazone on HDL metabolism in subjects with metabolic syndrome and low HDL
Treatment with the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ agonist rosiglitazone has been reported to increase HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels, although the mechanism responsible for this is unknown. We sought to determine the effect of rosiglitazone

Expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-α and PPAR-γ in the lung tissue of obese mice and the effect of rosiglitazone on proinflammatory cytokine expressions in the lung tissue [PDF]
PurposeWe investigated the mRNA levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-α, PPAR-γ, adipokines, and cytokines in the lung tissue of lean and obese mice with and without ovalbumin (OVA) challenge, and the effect of rosiglitazone, a PPAR-

SUMMARYRosiglitazone, a potent thiazolidinedione oral antidiabetic agent recently approved in the US, differs structurally from pioglitazone and troglitazone (other approved thiazolidinediones), with greater PPARγ binding affinity and antihyperglycaemic potency in preclinical models.
