    GlossaryPPAR-alpha agonists

    compounds that activate receptors to regulate lipid metabolism

    PPAR-alpha agonists, also known as Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Alpha agonists, are compounds that activate the PPAR-alpha receptor, a type of nuclear receptor involved in regulating lipid metabolism and inflammation. These agonists are often used in the treatment of conditions like hyperlipidemia and cardiovascular diseases because they help lower triglyceride levels and increase HDL (good cholesterol) levels in the blood.
