Studies in models of type 2 diabetes have shown that thiazolidinediones enhance β-cell function by mobilizing fat out of the cells [27].

Our results highlight the role of dSir2 in mobilizing fat reserves and demonstrate that its functions in the adult fatbody are crucial for starvation survival.

Thiazolidinediones reverse lipotoxicity by mobilizing fat out of muscle/liver/β-cells/arteries and relocating fat to subcutaneous adipose depots where it is metabolically "benign" (62, 79, 80) (Fig. 3).

Thus, we speculate that PPAR-α and PPAR-β/δ may have dominant roles in regulating myocardial fatty acid metabolism, instead of PPAR-γ; further, PPAR-γ may use an indirect mechanism to achieve cardioprotective effects, probably by mobilizing fat metabolism and directing glucose and fatty acid transport to the heart.
