Hyperglycemia and PPAR{gamma} Antagonistically Influence Macrophage Polarization and Infarct Healing After Ischemic Stroke Basic Sciences
Conclusions— Hyperglycemia and macrophage-specific PPAR activation exert opposing effects on MO/MP polarization in ischemic stroke lesions and, thereby, critically determine the risk of hemorrhagic infarct transformation.

Protective Role of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-{gamma} in the Development of Intracranial Aneurysm Rupture Basic Sciences
Conclusions— Our data showed that the activation of macrophage PPAR protects against the development of aneurysmal rupture. PPAR in inflammatory cells may be a potential therapeutic target for the prevention of aneurysmal rupture.
