A concerted kinase interplay identifies PPARgamma as a molecular target of ghrelin signaling in macrophages.

The peroxisome proliferator-activator receptor PPARgamma plays an essential role in vascular biology, modulating macrophage function and atherosclerosis progression. Recently, we have described the beneficial effect of combined activation of the ghrelin/GHS-R1a receptor and the scavenger receptor CD...
