Abstract excerpt
Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) is abundantly expressed in atherosclerotic lesions and is implicated in atherogenesis. The existence of three splice variants, PPAR-gamma 1, PPAR-gamma 2, and PPAR-gamma 3 has been established. Using monocyte-derived macrophages from cynomolgus monkeys, we demonstrate here the identification of two new PPAR-gamma exons, exon C and exon D, which splice...
