“…13,[18][19][20][21] In agreement with our current and previous findings, 7 PPARα L162V SNP was not associated with obesity in the Chinese Han, 17 Brazilians 22 and Caucasians. 4,[23][24][25] Furthermore, a study conducted by Robitaille et al 23 reported no association of this SNP with Met-S among Caucasian men, consistent with our current finding. The current study which also found that the lipid profile, glucose metabolism parameters and adiponectin levels were not affected by PPARα L162V SNP, is further supported by some studies, 4,18,22,24,26,27 but not others.…”

“…On the other hand, aortic explants isolated from PPARα-null mice exhibit an exacerbated response to inflammatory stimuli such as LPS, as demonstrated by increased IL-6 secretion [19]. Furthermore, the frequency of the V allele of the L162V polymorphism in the PPARα gene is significantly elevated in men with coronary atherosclerosis when compared with healthy controls, demonstrating a positive correlation with serum IL-6 levels [95]. In PPARα-deficient mice, anti-inflammatory activity of fibrates is abolished due to enhanced expression of inhibitor of κBα (IκBα) [96].…”

“…12 It is noteworthy that polymorphisms in PPAR-␣ have also been linked to effects on CRP, high-density lipoproteins, and interleukin-6. 13,14 While the technical axis of the nutrigenomic model may be of little interest to the empowered consumer, the information axis is another matter. Herein, internet-accessible authoritative statements regarding the health benefits of n-3 PUFAs approved by the Food and Drug Administration 15 or dietary guidelines offered by the American Heart Association 16 are integral to the success of the model.…”
