Ligands of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ inhibit hepatoce llular carcinoma cell proliferation
This study was designed to investigate the regulatory role of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) in the growth of hepatocellular carcinoma cells under the hypothesis that the levels of the phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) mRNA and the phosphorylated Akt (pAkt) protein would be affected by the presence of different receptor ligand concentrati...
متن کاملActivation and Molecular Targets of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ Ligands in Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death, and five-year survival remains poor, raising the urgency for new treatment strategies. Activation of PPARgamma represents a potential target for both the treatment and prevention of lung cancer. Numerous studies have examined the effect of thiazolidinediones such as rosiglitazone and pioglitazone on lung cancer cells in vitro and in xenograft mo...
متن کاملEffect of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ on inflammatory markers
Introduction In a recent study published in “ARYA atherosclerosis,” Pourmoghaddas et al. reported that administration of pioglitzone in non-diabetic patients with metabolic syndrome had no positive effect on inflammatory markers including high sensitive C-reactive protein, interleukin-10 (IL-10), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α).1 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are ligan...
متن کاملCHARMM Force Field Parameterization of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor γ Ligands
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) ligands are important therapeutic drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular diseases. In particular, partial agonists and non-agonists are interesting targets to reduce glucose levels, presenting few side effects in comparison to full agonists. In this work, we present a set of CHARMM-based parameters of a mol...
متن کاملRole of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ in Vascular Inflammation
Vascular inflammation plays a crucial role in atherosclerosis, and its regulation is important to prevent cerebrovascular and coronary artery disease. The inflammatory process in atherogenesis involves a variety of immune cells including monocytes/macrophages, lymphocytes, dendritic cells, and neutrophils, which all express peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ). PPAR-γ is a nucl...
