We sought to determine the effects of activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) on multilocularization of adipocytes in adult white adipose tissue (WAT). Male C57BL/6 normal, db/db, and ob/ob mice...
The nuclear hormone receptor PPARgamma is activated by several agonists, including members of the thiazolidinedione group of insulin sensitizers. Pleiotropic beneficial effects of these agonists, independent of their blood glucose-lowering...
The peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR)gamma agonist is used as antidiabetic agent with antihyperglycemic and antihyperinsulinemic actions. Beyond these actions, antifibrotic effects have been reported. We examined antifibrotic effects of...
PURPOSE: We tested whether rosiglitazone (RGZ), a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma agonist, can restore alveolar development and vascular growth in a rat model of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A rat...
