Evidence implicating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia.
Preeclampsia, a major cause of maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity, is thought to be attributed, in part, to impaired trophoblast invasion. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors are ligand-activated transcription factors expressed in trophoblasts, which regulate the expression of a number of genes involved in cell differentiation and proliferation. We investigated the effect of...
متن کاملPeroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ as a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of preeclampsia.
Preeclampsia is a multisystemic disorder of pregnancy characterized by hypertension, proteinuria, and maternal endothelial dysfunction. It is a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality and is thought to be attributable, in part, to inadequate trophoblast invasion. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) is a ligand-activated transcription factor expressed in t...
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...
متن کاملRole of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor γ in Ocular Diseases
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR γ), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, is a ligand-activated transcription factor that plays an important role in the control of a variety of physiological processes. The last decade has witnessed an increasing interest for the role played by the agonists of PPAR γ in antiangiogenesis, antifibrosis, anti-inflammation effects and in c...
متن کاملPeroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ in Thyroid Autoimmunity
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor- (PPAR-) γ expression has been shown in thyroid tissue from patients with thyroiditis or Graves' disease and furthermore in the orbital tissue of patients with Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO), such as in extraocular muscle cells. An increasing body of evidence shows the importance of the (C-X-C motif) receptor 3 (CXCR3) and cognate chemokines (C-X-C motif)...
