"Activation of PPARG also induces differentiation of colon cancer cells"

"PPARg was shown to be a differentiation-promoting transcription factor in adipogenesis (Fajas et al., 2001; Rosen and Spiegelman, 2001). Both caveolin-1 and -2 levels increase dramatically during differentiation of preadipocytes to adipocytes (Scherer et al., 1994, 1997) Human MCF-7 breast adenocarcinoma and human HT-29 colon adenocarcinoma cells"

"Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear receptor for eicosanoids that promotes differentiation of human epithelial and mesenchymal cells in vitro and in vivo."
