Peroxisome proliferator-activator receptors (PPARs) regulate lipid and glucose metabolism,
control inflammatory processes, and modulate several brain functions. Three PPAR isoforms …

PPARs are a class of ligand-activated transcription factors belonging to the superfamily of
receptors for steroid and thyroid hormones, retinoids and vitamin D that control the …

Endoannabinoids regulate energy balance by modulating hypothalamic circuits controlling
food intake and energy expenditure. However, convincing evidence has accumulated …

Bezafibrate (BZ) regulates mitochondrial biogenesis by activation of PPAR's receptors and
enhancing the level of PGC-1α coactivator. In this report, we investigated the effect of BZ on …

Our group has described previously that the endogenous cannabinoid anandamide induces
sleep. The hydrolysis of this lipid involves the activity of the fatty acid amide hydrolase …

Oleic acid synthesized by astrocytes behaves as a neurotrophic factor for neurons, up‐
regulating the molecular markers of axonal and dendritic outgrowth, growth‐associated …

Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) are peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor (PPAR)‐γ
agonists commonly used as insulin‐sensitizing drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In …

Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) is an endogenous lipid produced in the intestine that mediates
satiety by activation of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor alpha (PPARα). OEA …

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-γ) agonists (thiazolidinediones)
have anti-inflammatory effects and improve endothelium function. Here, we analyzed the …

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor β/δ (PPAR-β) is a ligand-activated transcription
factor belonging to the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily that regulates the transcription …
