Abstract:This work aimed to investigate the role of nuclear factor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) in modi cation of circadian clock and their relevance to development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Both male wild-type (WT) and Pparα-null (KO) mice treated with high-fat diet (HFD) were used to explore the effect of PPARα and lipid diet on the circadian clock. PPARα humanized (hPPARα) mice were treated with PPARα agonist feno brate to reveal the hPPARα-dependence of circadian locomotor… Show more
“…On the other hand, the weight gain of the KO mice fed with a HFD was far less than that in the WT group, which was consistent with previous results. 25,26 Moreover, a HFD is typically associated with insulin resistance.…”

“…On the other hand, the weight gain of the KO mice fed with a HFD was far less than that in the WT group, which was consistent with previous results. 25,26 Moreover, a HFD is typically associated with insulin resistance. We conducted an OGTT and found that both the WT and KO mice fed with a HFD showed impaired glucose tolerance, indicating that PPARα null mice are not protected from the effects of the HFD.…”
Risk avoidance behaviors are essential for survival. “Uncontrollable” risk-taking behaviors in animals or humans may have severe adverse consequences. In humans, a large proportion of psychiatric disorders are accompanied by...

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
