Depot-specific effects of the PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone on adipose tissue glucose uptake and metabolism[S]

Depot-specific effects of the PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone on adipose tissue glucose uptake and metabolism[S]

We investigated mechanisms whereby peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonism redistributes lipid from visceral (VF) toward subcutaneous fat (SF) by studying the impact of PPARγ activation on VF and SF glucose uptake and metabolism, lipogenesis, and enzymes involved in triacylglyce...
