title: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors: mediators of a fast food impact on gene regulation.
abstract: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors are nuclear receptors with pleiotropic effects on intra- and extracellular lipid metabolism, glucose homeostasis, inflammation control, and cell proliferation. This review addresses the respective roles of the different peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor isoforms in these different processes.
