Estrogen and progestin participate in the regulation of adipose tissue metabolism, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) and retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RXRalpha) are absolutely required for adipose tissue development. The present study is to investigate the changes in parametrial fat mass and expression of PPARgamma and RXRalpha during estrous cycle in mice. Parametrial white adipose tissues (WAT), inter-scapula brown adipose tissues, and uteri from female mice were weighed. Blood samples were collected for the measurement of 17 beta-estradiol and progesterone levels. An RNase protection assay and Western blot analysis were used to compare the expression of PPARgamma and RXRalpha in adipose tissue. The mass of parametrial WAT in diestrus was significantly higher compared with estrus. However, there is no significant difference on the mass of brown adipose tissues during estrous cycle. The expression of PPARgamma in WAT in diestrus was significantly higher than that in estrus. The expression of RXRalpha during estrous cycle was unchanged in both white and brown adipose tissues. In conclusion, the variation in parametrial WAT mass during the mouse estrous cycle correlates with changes in the expression of PPARgamma in WAT. 相似文献

The role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) in adipocyte physiology has been exploited for the treatment of diabetes. The expression of PPARgamma in lymphoid organs and its modulation of macrophage inflammatory responses, T cell proliferation and cytokine production, and B cell proliferation also implicate it in immune regulation. Despite significant human exposure to PPARgamma agonists, little is known about the consequences of PPARgamma activation in the developing immune system. Here, well-characterized models of B lymphopoiesis were used to investigate the effects of PPARgamma ligands on nontransformed pro/pre-B (BU-11) and transformed immature B (WEHI-231) cell development. Treatment of BU-11, WEHI-231, or primary bone marrow B cells with PPARgamma agonists (ciglitazone and GW347845X) resulted in rapid apoptosis. A role for PPARgamma and its dimerization partner, retinoid X receptor (RXR)alpha, in death signaling was supported by 1) the expression of RXRalpha mRNA and cytosolic PPARgamma protein, 2) agonist-induced binding of PPARgamma to a PPRE, and 3) synergistic increases in apoptosis following cotreatment with PPARgamma agonists and 9-cis-retinoic acid, an RXRalpha agonist. PPARgamma agonists activated NF-kappaB (p50, Rel A, c-Rel) binding to the upstream kappaB regulatory element site of c-myc. Only doses of agonists that induced apoptosis stimulated NF-kappaB-DNA binding. Cotreatment with 9-cis-retinoic acid and PPARgamma agonists decreased the dose required to activate NF-kappaB. These data suggest that activation of PPARgamma-RXR initiates a potent apoptotic signaling cascade in B cells, potentially through NF-kappaB activation. These results have implications for the nominal role of the PPARgamma in B cell development and for the use of PPARgamma agonists as immunomodulatory therapeutics. 相似文献

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) belong to the nuclear receptor superfamily. PPAR-alpha is involved in wound healing, stimulation of lipid and folic acid catabolism, inflammation control, inhibition of ureagenesis and peroxisome proliferation. The PPARgamma/delta is involved wound healing, cell proliferation, embryo implantation, adipocyte differentiation, myelination alteration and apoptosis. The PPARgamma is involved in fat, lipid and calorie utilization, sugar control, inflammation control and macrophage (MQ) matutation. Homocysteine (Hcy) binds to nuclear peroxisome proliferator activated receptor. Increase in PPAR expression decreases the level of nitrotyrosine and increases endothelial nitric oxide concentration, decreases metalloproteinase activity and expression as well as elastinolysis and reverses Hcy-mediated vascular dysfunction. The PPARgamma initially recognized as a regulator of adipocyte development has become a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of diverse disorders. In addition, the activation of PPARgamma receptor ameliorates neurodegenerative disease. This review focuses on the recent knowledge of PPARgamma in neuroprotection and deals with the mechanism of neuroprotection of central nervous system disorder by PPARgamma. 相似文献

A 45 kDa protein related to PPARgamma2, induced by peroxisome proliferators, is located in the mitochondrial matrix 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Besides their involvement in the control of nuclear gene expression by activating several peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), peroxisome proliferators influence mitochondrial activity. By analogy with the previous characterization of a mitochondrial T3 receptor (p43), we searched for the presence of a peroxisome proliferator target in the organelle. Using several antisera raised against different domains of PPARs, we demonstrated by Western blotting, immunoprecipitation and electron microscopy experiments, that a 45 kDa protein related to PPARgamma2 (mt-PPAR) is located in the matrix of rat liver mitochondria. In addition, we found that the amounts of mt-PPAR are increased by clofibrate treatment. Moreover, in EMSA experiments mt-PPAR bound to a DR2 sequence located in the mitochondrial D-loop, by forming a complex with p43. Last, studies of tissue-specific expression indicated that mt-PPAR is detected in mitochondria of all tissues tested except the brain in amounts positively related to p43 abundance.

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) impart diverse cellular effects in biological systems. Because stellate cell activation during liver injury is associated with declining PPARgamma expression, we hypothesized that its expression is critical in stellate cell-mediated fibrogenesis. We therefore modulated its expression during liver injury in vivo. PPARgamma was depleted in rat livers by using an adenovirus-Cre recombinase system. PPARgamma was overexpressed by using an additional adenoviral vector (AdPPARgamma). Bile duct ligation was utilized to induce stellate cell activation and liver fibrosis in vivo; phenotypic effects (collagen I, smooth muscle alpha-actin, hydroxyproline content, etc.) were measured. PPARgamma mRNA levels decreased fivefold and PPARgamma protein was undetectable in stellate cells after culture-induced activation. During activation in vivo, collagen accumulation, assessed histomorphometrically and by hydroxyproline content, was significantly increased after PPARgamma depletion compared with controls (1.28 +/- 0.14 vs. 1.89 +/- 0.21 mg/g liver tissue, P < 0.03). In isolated stellate cells, AdPPARgamma overexpression resulted in significantly increased adiponectin mRNA expression and decreased collagen I and smooth muscle alpha-actin mRNA expression compared with controls. During in vivo fibrogenesis, rat livers exposed to AdPPARgamma had significantly less fibrosis than controls. Collagen I and smooth muscle alpha-actin mRNA expression were significantly reduced in AdPPARgamma-infected rats compared with controls (P < 0.05, n = 10). PPARgamma-deficient mice exhibited enhanced fibrogenesis after liver injury, whereas PPARgamma receptor overexpression in vivo attenuated stellate cell activation and fibrosis. The data highlight a critical role for PPARgamma during in vivo fibrogenesis and emphasize the importance of the PPARgamma pathway in stellate cells during liver injury. 相似文献

Estrogens are essential for normal reproductive activity in female and male vertebrates. In female reptiles, they are essential for ovarian differentiation during a critical developmental stage. To understand the molecular mechanisms of estrogen action in the Nile crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus), we have isolated cDNA encoding the estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) from the ovary. Degenerate PCR primers specific to ER were designed and used to amplify Nile crocodile cDNA from the ovary. The full-length Nile crocodile ERalpha cDNA was obtained using 5' and 3' rapid amplification cDNA ends (RACE). The deduced amino acid sequence of the Nile crocodile ERalpha showed high identity to the American alligator ERalpha (98%), caiman ER (98%), lizard ER (82%) and chicken ERalpha (92%), although phylogenetic analysis suggested profound differences in the rate of sequence evolution for vertebrate ER sequences. Expression of ERalpha was observed in the ovary and testis of juvenile Nile crocodiles. These data provide a novel tool allowing future studies examining the regulation and ontogenic expression of ERalpha in crocodiles and expands our knowledge of estrogen receptor evolution. 相似文献

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) is abundantly expressed in adipocytes, and plays an important role in adipocyte differentiation and fat accretion. It is a heterodimeric partner of the retinoid X receptors alpha, beta and gamma, which are also expressed in the adipose tissue. As lethality of PPARgamma(-/-) and RXRalpha(-/-) mouse fetuses precluded the analysis of PPARgamma and RXRalpha functions in mature adipocytes, we generated RXRalpha(ad-/-) and PPARgamma(ad-/-) mice, in which RXRalpha and PPARgamma are selectively ablated in adult adipocytes, respectively. Even though the adiposity of RXRalpha(ad-/-) mice is similar to that of control mice when fed a regular diet, they are resistant to chemically and dietary-induced obesity. However, mature adipocytes lacking either both RXRalpha and RXRgamma or PPARgamma die, and are replaced by newly formed adipocytes. Thus, in adipocytes, RXRalpha is essential for lipogenesis, but RXRgamma can functionally replace RXRalpha for the adipocyte vital functions exerted by PPARgamma/RXR heterodimers. 相似文献
