A Novel Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Responsive Element-Luciferase Reporter Mouse Reveals Gender Specificity of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Activity in Liver

Abstract excerpt

There is a growing interest in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) as major players in the regulation of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. Drugs targeting PPARs were in fact shown to have major relevance for the treatment of diseases associated with aging, such as arteriosclerosis and diabetes. However, a variety of toxic effects associated with PPAR ligand administration has been documented,...
