Conjugated linoleic acid is a potent naturally occurring ligand and activator of PPARα
We have previously shown that a mixture of dietary conjugated derivatives of linoleic acid (conjugated linoleic acid, CLA) induces peroxisome proliferator-responsive enzymes and modulates hepatic lipid metabolism in vivo. The present studies demonstrate that CLA is a high affinity ligand and activat...

We have previously shown that a mixture of dietary conjugated derivatives of linoleic acid (conjugated linoleic acid, CLA) induces peroxisome proliferator-responsive enzymes and modulates hepatic lipid metabolism in vivo.
