pubmed:abstractText
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) are ligand-activated transcription factors that belong to the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily and are key regulators of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) in the heart. Systemic carnitine deficiency (SCD) causes disorders of FAO and induces hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with lipid accumulation. We hypothesized that activation of PPARalpha by fenofibrate, a PPARalpha agonist, in addition to conventional L-carnitine supplementation may exert beneficial effects on the lipotoxic cardiomyopathy in juvenile visceral steatosis (JVS) mouse, a murine model of SCD.
