GW 501516 is the first highly selective synthetic PPARδ agonist available. GW 501516 binds to human PPARδ with an IC50 value of 1 nM, and is at least 100-fold selective for PPARδ compared to PPARα and PPARγ. In obese primates, GW 501516 increases high density lipoprotein cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-1 specific reverse cholesterol transport. GW 501516 is therefore a model compound for a new type of obesity therapeutic, as well as a selective pharmacological tool for understanding lipid metabolism.
