1 | Wy14643, a selective PPARalpha agonist, significantly induced Igfbp-2 gene expression in primary cultured hepatocytes. | pirinixic acid | peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha | Mus musculus |
2 | To explore the role of PPARalpha in IGF-1 signalling, we treated primary cultured hepatocytes with Wy14643 and observed a decrease in the number of IGF-1 receptors (IGF-1Rs) and in Akt phosphorylation. | pirinixic acid | peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha | Mus musculus |
3 | These results suggest that PPARalpha controls IGF-1 signalling through the up-regulation of hepatic Igfbp-2 transcription during fasting and Wy14643 treatment. | pirinixic acid | peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha | Mus musculus |
