Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ or PPARG) also known as the glitazone receptor or NR1C3 (nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group C member 3) is a type II nuclear receptor that in humans is encoded by the PPARG gene.Two isoforms of PPARG are detected in the human and in the mouse: PPAR-γ1 (found in nearly all tissues except muscle) and PPAR-γ2 (mostly found in adipose tissue and the intestine).
