Effects of 15-Deoxy-Δ12,14-Prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2) and Rosiglitazone on Human Vδ2+ T Cells
BACKGROUND Thiazolidinediones (TZD) class of drugs, and 15-deoxy-D12,14-prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2) are immune regulators predicted to modulate human autoimmune disease. Their effects on gammadelta T cells, which are involved in animal model and human and animal autoimmune diseases, are unknown. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We characterized the activity of rosiglitazone (from the TZD class ...
متن کاملBiphasic Effects of 15-Deoxy- -Prostaglandin J2 on Glutathione Induction and Apoptosis in Human Endothelial Cells
The lipid products derived from the cyclooxygenase pathway can have diverse and often contrasting effects on vascular cell function. Cyclopentenone prostaglandins (cyPGs), such as 15-deoxy-prostaglandin-J2 (15d-PGJ2), a peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor(PPAR ) agonist, have been reported to cause endothelial cell apoptosis, yet in other cell types, cyPGs induce cytoprotective mediators...
متن کامل15-deoxy-Δ12,14-prostaglandin J2 in neurodegenerative diseases and cancers
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) appear to have no connection with cancers. In the view of cell death, however, common ground can be found between neuronal and non-neuronal diseases [1]. AD and PD are ascribed to the cell death of neurons, which should be alive under healthy conditions. In contrast, cancers are attributed to the proliferat...
متن کاملThe Cyclopentenone Prostaglandin 15-Deoxy- -Prostaglandin J2 Attenuates the Development of Acute and Chronic Inflammation
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are members of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily of ligandactivated transcription factors that are related to retinoid, steroid, and thyroid hormone receptors. The PPARreceptor subtype seems to play a pivotal role in the regulation of cellular proliferation and inflammation. Recent evidence also suggests that the cyclopentenone prostagl...
متن کاملRosiglitazone and 15-deoxy-Delta12,14-prostaglandin J2 cause potent neuroprotection after experimental stroke through noncompletely overlapping mechanisms.
Stroke triggers an inflammatory cascade which contributes to a delayed cerebral damage, thus implying that antiinflammatory strategies might be useful in the treatment of acute ischaemic stroke. Since two unrelated peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) agonists, the thiazolidinedione rosiglitazone (RSG) and the cyclopentenone prostaglandin 15-deoxy-Delta(12,14)-prostaglan...
