DrugBank Pharmacology: --
DrugBank MoA: This drug regulates fatty acid oxidation in several tissues, such as skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. Overexpression of PPARdelta using a transgenic murine model promotes an increase of muscle oxidative capability. It also plays a major role in the metabolic adaptations to western diet characterized by an excessive amount of saturated fat.
Targets: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta agonist; Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha agonist
Inclusion Criteria: Target associated
