Abstract excerpt
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) constitute a subfamily of nuclear receptor superfamily. A wide variety of compounds including hypolipidemic agents, antidiabetic drugs, and long-chain fatty acids are the potential ligands of PPARs. To approach the regulatory mechanisms of PPARs, we studied on two subjects in this work. First, we identified a functional PPAR-binding site in the spacer region...
