Association of functional genetic variants in PPARδ encoding peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta with ischemic stroke in Chinese Uyghur population.

PPARδ belongs to a receptor family of ligand-activated transcription factors involved in the regulation of inflammation, cellular glucose uptake, protection against atherosclerosis and endothelial cell function. Through these effects, they might be involved with the ischemic stroke (IS).
