## Abstract Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐γ (PPAR‐γ) plays a critical role in glucose and lipid metabolism. More recently, PPAR‐γ ligands have been reported to inhibit the expression of proinflammatory molecules by monocytes/macrophages. Of relevance to CNS disease is that PPAR‐γ agoni

## Abstract The new plastoquinones, named meroterphenol A (I), B (II), C (III), and D (IV), show potent activation effects on peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor gamma.
During drug metabolism, UDPglucuronate, a product of the reaction catalyzed by the enzyme UDPglucose dehydrogenase (UGDH), is conjugated with the metabolites to facilitate their elimination. So far, it is not known whether xenobiotics can modulate the UGDH gene expression. This question was tested b
Enantiomers of a series of substituted analogs of 2-(4-chlorophenoxy) -acetic acid (CPAA) were synthesized and used to examine the influence of steric and structural parameters on peroxisome proliferation. The effects of these compounds were studied on the activation of the peroxisome proliferator-a
Fatty acids, particularly the v-3 and v-6 essential fatty acids (EFAs), are considered critical nutritional sources for the developing fetus. The placenta governs the fetal supply of fatty acids via two processes: transport and metabolism. Placental fatty acid metabolism can play a critical role in
