PPARs and Bone Metabolism
Welcome to the inaugural special issue of PPAR Research: PPARs and Bone Metabolism. In addition to the key roles PPARs play in numerous processes including glucose and fat metabolism, inflammation, cancer, and central nervous system maintenance, a new role for PPAR-γ has recently emerged: the maintenance of bone homeostasis during aging and disease. In this premier issue we have assembled what ...
متن کاملPPARs in bone: the role in bone cell differentiation and regulation of energy metabolism.
Obesity, diabetes, and osteoporosis are major public health concerns. Current estimates indicate that the US population consists of 25% obese, 30% diabetic and prediabetic, and, among the elderly, 50% of all osteoporotic individuals. Mechanistically, these pathologies share several features including common regulators of bone homeostasis and energy metabolism. Peroxisome proliferator-activated ...
متن کاملRegulation of Bone Metabolism
Bone is formed through the processes of endochondral and intramembranous ossification. In endochondral ossification primary mesenchymal cells differentiate to chondrocytes and then are progressively substituted by bone, while in intramembranous ossification mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) differentiate directly into osteoblasts to form bone. The steps of osteogenic proliferation, differentiation,...
متن کاملPPARs Integrate the Mammalian Clock and Energy Metabolism
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are a group of nuclear receptors that function as transcription factors regulating the expression of numerous target genes. PPARs play an essential role in various physiological and pathological processes, especially in energy metabolism. It has long been known that metabolism and circadian clocks are tightly intertwined. However, the mechanis...
متن کاملRegulation of Bile Acid and Cholesterol Metabolism by PPARs
Bile acids are amphipathic molecules synthesized from cholesterol in the liver. Bile acid synthesis is a major pathway for hepatic cholesterol catabolism. Bile acid synthesis generates bile flow which is important for biliary secretion of free cholesterol, endogenous metabolites, and xenobiotics. Bile acids are biological detergents that facilitate intestinal absorption of lipids and fat-solubl...
