BMP/SMAD1 signaling sets a threshold for the left/right pathway in lateral plate mesoderm and limits availability of SMAD4.

abstract：:The nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) is known to regulate lipid metabolism in many tissues, including macrophages. Here we report that peritoneal macrophage respiration is enhanced by rosiglitazone, an activating PPARγ ligand, in a PPARγ-dependent manner. Moreover, PPARγ is require...
