1 16187688 The PPARs act as nutritional lipid sensors and three mammalian PPAR subtypes designated PPARalpha (NR1C1), PPARgamma (NR1C3) and PPARdelta (NR1C2) have been identified.
2 16109478 Recent studies revealed that ligand activation of PPARbeta can induce fatty acid catabolism in skeletal muscle and is associated with improved insulin sensitivity, attenuated weight gain and elevated HDL levels thus demonstrating promising potential for targeting PPARbeta for treating obesity, dyslipidemias and type 2 diabetes.
3 17084713 We also show that PPARbeta stimulates in myocytes the expression of PGC1alpha, a coactivator of various transcription factors, known to play an important role in slow muscle fiber formation.
4 17084713 Moreover, as the PGC1alpha promoter contains a PPAR response element, the effect of PPARbeta on the formation and/or maintenance of slow muscle fibers can be ascribed, at least in part, to a stimulation of PGC1alpha expression at the transcriptional level.
5 19074989 In C2C12 myocytes, knockdown of PPARD, but not of PPARG, blocked LCFA-mediated ANGPTL4 induction, and LCFA treatment resulted in PPAR-delta recruitment to the ANGPTL4 gene.
6 16897074 The aim of this study was to verify whether activation of fatty acid oxidation by PPARbeta agonists in human skeletal muscle cells prepared from type 2 diabetic patients could improve the reduced responses to insulin that characterized this cell model.
7 21834910 Animal studies have shown that the peroxime proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARD) gene regulates glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity.
8 21615395 Results? Basal myotube PPARD expression was closely related to the expression of its target genes PDK4 and ANGPTL4 (P?=?0·0312 and P?=?0·0003, respectively).
9 21615395 Basal PPARD, PDK4 and ANGPTL4 expression levels were not associated with donors' insulin sensitivity (P?>?0·2, all).
10 21615395 Treatment of myotubes with a selective high-affinity PPAR? agonist (GW501516) did not change mean PPARD, but enhanced mean PDK4 and ANGPTL4 expression 13- and 16-fold, respectively (P?
