Paradoxically, the world has never been so obese, while the beauty canons have never been so skinny! However, there is more to energy balance than alterations in body weight. In the 1990s, it was found that fatty acids not only function as fuel molecules only, but also serve as signaling molecules. They bind nuclear hormone receptors, the Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors, commonly referred to by the acronym PPARs. PPARs are transcription factors that directly control the expression of genes of metabolism, thereby impacting a multitude of pathways crucial for whole body physiology. PPARs are also activated by synthetic agonists, which are drugs used for lowering triglycerides and blood sugar. This book features articles that address tools for the identification of novel PPAR ligands, as well as the roles of the receptors in several organs, such as the brain, heart, liver, adipose tissue, gut, and muscle. As such, this book documents the multifaceted roles of these nuclear receptors that continue to attract significant attention, not least because of their still not fully realized potential to treat several health conditions. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book explores the intersection of biosciences, artificial intelligence (AI), and information technology (IT), highlighting their potential to drive innovation in biomedicine and health, particularly in the context of pandemic resiliency and human longevity. The book expands on the discussion held at the Curious2024 – Future Insight Conference, capturing the innovative spirit and collaborative ethos of the conference. In this book, readers will find a diverse array of topics, including individualized medicine for cardiovascular disease, the sustainable transformation of chemical processes, and the future of drug discovery through an AI-driven lens. The book also investigates the role of synthetic biology in leveraging the ground truth of intelligence and explores the potential of developing conscious service robots. Chapters written by keynote speakers from the Curious2024 – Future Insight Conference emphasize the importance of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary dialogue for breakthrough innovation. These contributions also provide a comprehensive analysis of the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead, making this book an essential read for those interested in the future of science and technology. By highlighting the crucial role of scientists in solving today's problems and enabling the dreams of a better tomorrow, the book appeals to a broad readership of researchers, scholars, and practitioners in biosciences, AI, and IT. It also serves as a valuable resource for early career researchers seeking mentorship and guidance. |
