The effects of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (ppar-γ) agonists on monocytic cell activation and endothelial function in diabetes

2005-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor-y (PPARy) is a ligand-activated transcription factor responsible for controlling genes involved in lipid and glucose metabolism. The thiazolidinediones (TZDs) are a class of synthetic PPARy ligands used as anti-hyperglycaemic agents in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Recently it has been shown that these agonists have additional anti-inflammatory properties beyond their...
