| Preferred Name |
peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signaling pathway |
| Synonyms |
PPAR signaling pathway |
| Definitions |
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signaling is initiated in response to binding several compounds within classes of lipids such as the eicosanoid, leukotriene, prostagladin, among others. The receptors form heterodimers with the retinoid X receptor, bind to specific DNA elements and regulate the expression of target genes. Deregulation of the pathway has been implicated in several conditions. |
