Insulin is known to upregulate apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) promoter activity and to increase apoA1 gene expression in vivo. To determine if enhancement of insulin action with insulin sensitizers can also increase the apoA-I expression, we studied the in vivo effect of troglitazone, a potent insulin sensitizer, on the expression of rat hepatic and intestinal apoA-I mRNA using Northern blot analysis. The plasma, hepatic, and intestinal apoA-I content was also measured with immunoblot analysis using a specific anti-rat apoA-I antiserum. Troglitazone, given mixed with rat chow (0.2%) for 18 days, did not increase either plasma or tissue apoA-I mRNA or protein content. Intestinal apoA-I mRNA content relative to glyceraldehyde-3 phosphate dehydrogenase (G(3)PDH) mRNA was significantly lower compared with hepatic tissue content in both control and troglitazone-treated rats. The effect of troglitazone on the rat apoA-I promoter was examined using transient transfection analysis in HepG2 cells transfected with the apoA-I-chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) reporter plasmid (pAI.474.CAT). CAT activity (percentage acetylation of chloramphenicol as means +/- SEM) was not significantly different in ethanol (vehicle)-treated cells compared with cells treated with troglitazone (50.5% +/- 2.5% in control cells vs 57.7% +/- 8.2% and 53.5% +/- 4.2% in cells treated with 10 and 100 mM troglitazone, respectively). It is concluded that troglitazone doses known to achieve insulin sensitization did not enhance rat apoA-I promoter activity sufficiently to result in an increased apoA-I mRNA or protein expression in the intact rat. However, peroxisome proliferator activator receptor (PPAR) agonists that have significant PPAR alpha activity in addition to their PPAR gamma effects, may well be able to induce apoA-I expression. 相似文献

We have generated and studied the pattern of expression of transgenic mouse lines carrying the human apoA-I and apoCIII gene cluster mutated at different sites. In two lines, we have either mutated the hormone-response element (HRE) of element G of the apoCIII enhancer or the C/EBP binding site of the proximal apoA-I promoter. In a third line, we have mutated the two HREs of the apoA-I promoter and the HRE of the apoCIII enhancer. Mutations in the HRE of element G reduced the hepatic and intestinal expressions of the reporter chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene (which substituted the apoCIII gene) to 4 and 13% of the wild-type (WT) control, whereas the hepatic and intestinal expressions of the apoA-I gene were reduced to 92 and 25% of the WT control, respectively. A mutation in the C/EBP site increased the hepatic and intestinal expressions of the apoA-I gene approximately 1.25- and 1.6-fold, respectively, and did not affect the expression of the CAT gene. The mutation in the three HNF-4 binding sites of the apoA-I promoter/apoCIII enhancer nearly abolished the expression of apoA-I and the reporter CAT gene in all tissues. These findings establish the importance of the HREs for the hepatic and intestinal expressions of the apoA-I and apoCIII genes and suggest that C/EBP does not play a central role in the expression of the apoA-I gene. 相似文献

The effects of altered serum 3,3',5-triiodothyronine levels on rat lipoprotein metabolism were examined. Daily injections of the hormone (50 micrograms/100 g body mass) over a period of six days led to an increase of 6.4-fold in the hepatic mRNA level for apolipoprotein(apo)A-I, and a 21% increase in serum apoA-I levels. 12h after a single injection of 3,3',5-triiodothyronine the rate of [14C]leucine incorporation into apoA-I increased 2.1 fold. Conversely, in hypothyroid rats there was a decrease in hepatic mRNA levels for apoA-I and a decreased rate of [14C]leucine incorporation into apoA-I. The increase in hepatic apoA-I mRNA levels following 3,3',5-triiodothyronine treatment occurred prior to significant changes in serum triacylglycerol levels. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles isolated from the serum of hyperthyroid rats were smaller and enriched in apoA-I compared to apoA-IV and apoE. Similar changes in HDL composition were observed following in vitro incubations of normal rat serum with purified rat apoA-I. The results suggest that during altered thyroid status, changes in serum HDL size and composition occur in association with significant changes in apoA-I gene expression. 相似文献

Sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (Ntcp) is the major uptake system for conjugated bile acids. Deletions of hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1alpha and retinoid X receptor-alpha:retinoic acid receptor-alpha binding sites in the mouse 5'-flanking region corresponding to putatively central regulatory elements of rat Ntcp do not significantly reduce promoter activity. We hypothesized that HNF-4alpha, which is increasingly recognized as a central regulator of hepatocyte function, may directly transactivate mouse (mNtcp). A 1.1-kb 5'-upstream region including the mouse Ntcp promoter was cloned and compared with the rat promoter. In contrast to a moderate 3.5-fold activation of mNtcp by HNF-1alpha, HNF-4alpha cotransfection led to a robust 20-fold activation. Deletion analysis of mouse and rat Ntcp promoters mapped a conserved HNF-4alpha consensus site at -345/-326 and -335/-316 bp, respectively. p-475bpmNtcpLUC is not transactivated by HNF-1alpha but shows a 50-fold enhanced activity upon cotransfection with HNF-4alpha. Gel mobility shift assays demonstrated a complex of the HNF-4alpha-element formed with liver nuclear extracts that was blocked by an HNF-4alpha specific antibody. HNF-4alpha binding was confirmed by chromatin immunoprecipitation. Using Hepa 1-6 cells, HNF-4alpha-knockdown resulted in a significant 95% reduction in NTCP mRNA. In conclusion, mouse Ntcp is regulated by HNF-4alpha via a conserved distal cis-element independently of HNF-1alpha. 相似文献
