Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPAR-delta or PPAR-beta), also known as NR1C2 (nuclear receptor subfamily 1, group C, member 2) is a nuclear receptor encoded by the gene.

PPAR-delta is the main target of a research chemical named GW501516. It has been shown that agonism of PPAR-delta changes the body's fuel preference from glucose to lipids.
