Year 2002
Title Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma agonists prevent experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis

Results of multiple sclerosis :

Result Clinical symptoms were reduced by two other PPAR agonists,suggesting a role for PPAR activation in protective effects.
Mechanism/pathway Ligands of the peroxisome proliferator-activated recep tor (PPAR) exert anti-inflammatory effects on glial cells,reduce proliferation and activation of T cells, and induce myelin gene expression.
