The Effect of β-Adrenergic and Peroxisome Proliferator–Activated Receptor-γ Stimulation on Target Genes Related to Lipid Metabolism in Human Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue

Abstract

Combined activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma and beta-adrenergic receptors has beneficial effects on body weight, plasma triglycerides, and lipid metabolism in subcutaneous fat by increasing the expression of genes required for fatty acid catabolism.
