high fat diet

Epidemiology: - high fat diet associated with lower mortality than high carbohydrate diet [2] Comparative biology: - in mice, a high-fat diet induces PPAR-delta in intestinal stem cells & (non-stem cell) progenitor cells [1] - enforced PPAR-delta signalling permits these progenitors to form in vivo tumurs after loss of the tumor suppressor APC [1]
