Thin pill. Computer artwork showing a capsule containing a drug that can cause weight loss in humans. The drug could be a molecule that binds to a human PPAR-delta receptor decreasing its activity. PPARs (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors) play essential roles in cell differentiation, development and metabolism. Disrupting PPAR-delta changes the body's fuel preference from glucose to fats, thereby reducing the body's fat stores.
