Summary

Introduction

The paper “PPAR medicines and human disease: The ABCs of it all” by A. Many types of PPAR-related medicines developed and utilized clinically all over the world exert multiple effects, including regulation of hypolipidemic, antidiabetic, antiinflammatory, antifibrotic, and antiproliferative pathways, with emerging potential benefits in other diseases. Nicol is a review of the vast in vitro, in vivo, and human clinical trial studies, using chemotherapeutic combinations that include PPARγ activating drugs.
