Journal ArticleDOI

The hormone resistin links obesity to diabetes

TL;DR: It is shown that adipocytes secrete a unique signalling molecule, which is named resistin (for resistance to insulin), which circulating resistin levels are decreased by the anti-diabetic drug rosiglitazone, and increased in diet-induced and genetic forms of obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel therapy for colitis utilizing PPAR-gamma ligands to inhibit the epithelial inflammatory response.

TL;DR: It is reported here that PPAR-gamma ligands dramatically attenuate cytokine gene expression in colon cancer cell lines by inhibiting the activation of nuclear factor-kappaB via an IkappaB-alpha-dependent mechanism, and thiazolidinedione ligands for PPARS markedly reduce colonic inflammation in a mouse model of IBD.
Journal ArticleDOI

TAK1, but not TAB1 or TAB2, plays an essential role in multiple signaling pathways in vivo

TL;DR: The studies suggests that TAK1 acts as an upstream activating kinase for IKKbeta and JNK, but not IKKalpha, revealing an unexpectedly specific role of TAK 1 in inflammatory signaling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interdomain communication regulating ligand binding by PPAR-γ

TL;DR: The ability of the A/B domain to regulate ligand binding has important implications for the evaluation and mechanism of action of potentially therapeutic ligands that bind PPAR-γ and that are likely to extend to other members of the nuclear-receptor superfamily.
