L-165041 is a cell permeable PPARbeta (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta) agonist which induces adipocyte differentiation in NIH-PPARbeta cells. In addition, this ligand reduces lipid accumulation in the liver and decreases total hepatic cholesterol and triglyceride content. Studies suggest that L-165041 affects mRNA expression by reducing the expression of PPARgamma, apolipoprotein B, interleukin 1 beta (IL-1beta), and interleukin-6, while increasing the expression of PPARbeta, lipoprotein lipase (LPL), and ATP-binding cassette transporter G1 (ABCG1). Furthermore, upon binding to PPARbeta L-165041 suppresses vascular smooth muscle proliferation and migration by inhibiting the cell cycle, specifically blocking G1 to S phase progression and repressing the phosphorylation of retinoblastoma protein (Rb) in rats. Alternate studies suggest that L-165041 suppresses the cytokine-induced expression of VCAM-1 (vascular cell adhesion molecule-1) and increases UCP3 (uncoupling protein 3) gene expression in L6 myotubes. L-165041 is an activator of PPAR beta.
