Natural Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor γ (PPARγ) Activators for Diabetes
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) represents a worldwide problem. Drugs used in MetS target different symptoms, like excessive body weight, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, or hypertension. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) regulate the gene expression involved in lipid metabolism, inflammation, and adipogenesis. Activation of PPARγ has become a target of interest to counter hyperglycemia linked with MetS and type 2 diabetes (T2DM).
