Excerpt

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARg) is a ligand activated transcription factor and member the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. Several lines of evidence indicate that PPARg have protective effects in osteoarthritis (OA). Indeed, PPARg has been shown to down-regulate several inflammatory and catabolic responses in articular joint cells and to be protective in animal models of OA. We have previously shown that IL-1 down-regulated PPARg expression in OA chondrocytes. In the present study we will investigate the mechanisms underlying this effect of IL-1. …

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
