摘要:Targeting of the nuclear prostaglandin receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor {delta} (PPAR{delta}) by homologous recombination results in placental defects and frequent (>90%) midgestation lethality. Surviving PPAR{delta}-/- mice exhibit a striking reduction in adiposity relative to wild-type levels. This effect is not reproduced in mice harboring an adipose tissue-specific deletion of PPAR{delta
