BACKGROUND Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma may counteract tissue fibrosis via its anti-inflammatory actions, while hypoxia, a new pro-fibrotic factor, reportedly modifies PPAR-gamma expression. However, the effects of hypoxia on the expression and anti-inflammatory actions of PPAR-gamma have yet remained to be clarified in renal tubular cells. METHODS Confluent human p...
Sambandam, Nandakumar, Dominique Morabito, Cory Wagg, Brian N. Finck, Daniel P. Kelly, and Gary D. Lopaschuk. Chronic activation of PPAR is detrimental to cardiac recovery after ischemia. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 290: H87–H95, 2006. First published September 9, 2005; doi:10.1152/ajpheart.00285.2005.— High fatty acid oxidation (FAO) rates contribute to ischemia-reperfusion injury of the m...
In an effort to understand the role of key eicosanoid-forming enzymes in the activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR), this study was designed to evaluate the possible contributions of cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) and group IIA secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)) in the regulation of PPAR-mediated gene transcription in a human hepatoma cell line (HepG2). The ...
Trichloroethylene (TCE) and related hydrocarbons constitute an important class of environmental pollutants whose adverse effects on liver, kidney, and other tissues may, in part, be mediated by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), ligand-activated transcription factors belonging to the steroid receptor superfamily. Activation of PPAR induces a dramatic proliferation of peroxisom...
PURPOSE Obesity is a risk factor for asthma and type II diabetes. Peroxisome proliferator- activated receptor (PPAR)-γ has been suggested to regulate inflammatory responses in diabetes and asthma. We investigated whether PPAR-α, PPAR-γ, adiponectin receptors (AdipoR1, AdipoR2), leptin, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α are expressed in rat lung tissues and whether the expression differs between...
The pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme complex (PDC) is rate limiting for glucose oxidation in the heart. Inhibition of PDC by end-product feedback and phosphorylation by pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK) operate in concert to inhibit PDC activity. Because the transcriptional regulator peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-alpha increases PDK expression in some tissues, we examined wha...
Hypoxia enhances transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling, inhibiting alveolar development and causing abnormal pulmonary arterial remodeling in the newborn lung. We hypothesized that, during chronic hypoxia, reduced peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) signaling may contribute to, or be caused by, excessive TGF-β signaling. To determine whether PPAR-γ was reduced during ...
Accumulating evidence suggests that loss of the renal tubular epithelial phenotype plays an important role in the pathogenesis of renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Systemic activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ) has been shown to be protective against renal fibrosis, although the mechanisms are poorly understood. The present study aimed to define the role of renal ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are transcription factors that play an important role in the regulation of genes involved in lipid utilization and storage, lipoprotein metabolism, adipocyte differentiation, and insulin action. The three isoforms of the PPAR family, i.e. a, d, and g, have distinct tissue distribution patterns. PPAR-a is predominantly present in the liver, and...
