Thus, we investigated the effect of PPARδ ligand L-165041 on Western diet-induced fatty liver using low-density lipoprotein receptor-deficient (LDLR−/−) mice. LDLR−/− mice received either L-165041 (5 mg/kg/day) or vehicle (0.1 N NaOH) with Western diet for 16 weeks. According to our data, L-165041 drastically reduced lipid accumulation in the liver, decreasing total hepatic cholesterol and triglyceride content compared to the vehicle group. Gene expression analysis demonstrated that L-165041 lowered hepatic expression of PPARγ, apolipoprotein B, interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), and interleukin-6. In contrast, L-165041 increased hepatic expressions of PPARδ, lipoprotein lipase (LPL), and ATP-binding cassette transporter G1 (ABCG1). Our data suggest that L-165041 might be effective in preventing Western diet-induced hepatic steatosis by regulating genes involved in lipid metabolism and the inflammatory response.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejphar.2009.09.002} (DOI).
