Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha ligands inhibit cardiac lipoprotein lipase activity.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-a ligands inhibit cardiac lipoprotein lipase activity

Carroll, Rogayah, and David L. Severson. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-a ligands inhibit cardiac lipoprotein lipase activity. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 281: H888–H894, 2001.—Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate gene expression of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in liver and adipose tissue. We examined the direct...

Cardiac-specific knock-out of lipoprotein lipase alters plasma lipoprotein triglyceride metabolism and cardiac gene expression.

Fatty acids are the primary energy source for the heart. The heart acquires fatty acids associated with albumin or derived from lipoprotein lipase (LpL)-mediated hydrolysis of lipoprotein triglyceride (TG). We generated heart-specific LpL knock-out mice (hLpL0) to determine whether cardiac LpL modulates the actions of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors and affects whole body lipid meta...

Rescue of Cardiomyopathy in Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor- Transgenic Mice by Deletion of Lipoprotein Lipase Identifies Sources of Cardiac Lipids and Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor- Activators

Compare the Effect of Eicosapentaenoic Acid and Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein on the Expression of CD36 and Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma

Background: There is evidence that CD36 promotes foam cell formation through internalizing oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) into macrophages therefore, it plays a key role in pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. In addition, CD36 expression seems to be mediated by nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ). The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the effect of ...

Role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha and gamma in antiangiogenic effect of pomegranate peel extract

Objective(s): Herbal medicines are promising cancer preventive candidates. It has been shown that Punica granatum L. could inhibit angiogenesis and tumor invasion. In this study, we investigated whether the anti-angiogenic effect of pomegranate peel extract (PPE) is partly attributable to Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) activation in the Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cell...
