The PPAR target gene CD36 is a rate limiting factor for the sensing of gram positive S-aureus in vascular smooth muscle cells but not in macrophages
(2008-08-01)Bacteria activate macrophages and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) resulting in induction of nitric oxide synthase (NOS)II activity. Here we show that the PPARc agonist rosiglitazone (rosi) increases the sensing of ... -
The PPARβ/δ agonist GW0742 prevents LPS-induced nitrite production in rat parenchyma but not in aorta or pulmonary arteries
(2014-12)Peroxisome Proliferator activated receptors (PPARs) are therapeutic targets in the treatment of inflammatory lung disease. The PPARβ/δ agonist GW0742 has potent anti-inflammatory effects in the vasculature (Kapoor et al ... -
The PPARβ/δagonist GW0742 relaxes pulmonary vessels and limits right heart hypertrophy in rats with hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension
(2010-03-04)Background: Pulmonary vascular diseases are increasingly recognised as important clinical conditions. Pulmonary hypertension associated with a range of aetiologies is difficult to treat and associated with progressive ... -
