Buspirone Induces Weight Loss and Normalization of Blood Pressure via the Stimulation of PPAR < em > δ < /em > Dependent Energy Producing Pathway in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
CONCLUSION: Buspirone may induce the losses of body weight and abdominal fat weight through the activation of PPARδ dependent catabolic metabolism producing energy, and eventually, the ameliorated lipid metabolism could normalize high blood pressure.PMID:37168052 | PMC:PMC10164918 | DOI:10.1155/2023/7550164 (Source: PPAR Research)

Peptide Helix-Y < sup > 12 < /sup > as Potential Effector for Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors
This study aimed to evaluate some components of the atheroprotective and hepatoprotective HB-ATV-8 nanoparticles [the amphipathic peptide Helix-Y12, thermozeaxanthin, thermozeaxanthin-13, thermozeaxanthin-15, and a set of glycolipids], as possible ligands of PPARs through blind molecular docking. According to the change in free energy upon protein-ligand binding, ∆G b, thermozeaxanthins show a more favorable interaction with PPARs, followed by Helix-Y12. Moreover, Helix-Y12 interacts with most parts of the Y-shaped ligand-binding domain (LBD), surrounding helix 3 of PPARs, and reaching helix 12 of PPARα and PPARγ. As p...
