Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 1997; 94:4312-4317. A novel conformation-based assay to screen activators of PPAR for their ability to bind directly and to induce DNA binding shows that specific fatty acids, eicosanoids and hypolipidemic drugs are ligands for PPAR-α or PPAR-δ.

Fatty acids and eicosanoids regulate gene expression through direct interactions with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors α and γ. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 1997; 94:4318-4323. This study uses competition binding assays to show that certain mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids bind directly to PPAR and PPAR at physiological concentrations, suggesting a molecular mechanism whereby dietary fatty acids can modulate gene expression.

This paper describes a novel keratinocyte fatty acid binding protein, which is dependent on calcium, binds arachidonic acid to a high degree and is highly over-expressed in psoriasis, indicating increased unsaturated fatty acid metabolism and production of eicosanoids.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 1996; 93:11091-11096. This paper suggests that the formation of lipid bodies in leukocytes, which is regulated by aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, constitutes an alternative mechanism for enhancing the synthesis of eicosanoids.
