Regulation of Glial Cell Functions by PPAR- 𝜸 Natural and Synthetic Agonists

Figure 1

Cellular targets of PPAR-γ agonists in neurodegenerative diseases. PPAR-γ agonists can control neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and demyelination by effecting several cellular targets and by several direct and indirect mechanisms. PPAR-γ agonists can control glial activation, preventing a number of proinflammatory activities that can contribute to myelin/OL damage and neurotoxicity PPAR-γ agonists may also affect OLs and neurons, by preventing release inflammatory mediators and/or promote the synthesis of soluble factors or membrane-bound molecules that control glial activation.
