For example, PPARγ is involved in a positive feedback mechanism that induces the formation of foam cells [ 23 ] . On the other hand, activation of PPARγ was shown to inhibit monocyte [ 24 ] and macrophage [ 25 ] inflammatory responses by preventing the activation of nuclear transcription factors, such as NF-kB (nuclear factor-kappa B), AP-1 (activator protein-1) and STAT 1 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 1).
