Background: | Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor alpha (PPAR alpha ; NR1C1) is a member of the Nuclear Receptor superfamily. PPAR alpha exhibits the highest affinity with unsaturated fatty acids, and linolenic acids. PPAR alpha is expressed in brown fat, liver, kidney, heart, mucosa of the stomach and duodenum, retina, adrenal gland, skeletal muscle, pancreatic islets and smooth muscle cells. PPAR alpha plays important roles in lipid and glucose metabolism, and has been implicated in obesity-related metabolic diseases such as hyperlipidemia, insulin resistance, and coronary artery disease. Three members have been identified and are called PPAR alpha, δ, and lambda. Retinoid X Receptor (RXR) is an obligate partner for PPAR. |
