Molecular Mechanisms and Genome-Wide Aspects of PPAR Subtype Specific Transactivation

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are central regulators of fat metabolism, energy homeostasis, proliferation, and inflammation. The three PPAR subtypes, PPAR𝛼, 𝛽/𝛿, and 𝛾 activate overlapping but also very different target gene programs. This review summarizes the insights int...
