Open AccessA metabolomic study of the PPARδ agonist GW501516 for enhancing running endurance in Kunming mice
Exercise can increase peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-δ (PPARδ) expression in skeletal muscle. PPARδ regulates muscle metabolism and reprograms muscle fibre types to enhance running endurance. This ...
