Objective: This study was designed to determine when peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) is expressed in developing fetal adipose tissue and stromal‐vascular adipose precursor cells derived from adipose tissue. In addition we examined developing tissue for CCAAT/enhancer‐binding protein β (C/EBPβ) expression to see if it was correlated with PPARγ expression. Pituitary function and hormones involved with differentiation (dexamethasone and retinoic acid) were also tested for their effects on PPARγ expression to determine if hormones known to affect differentiation also effect PPARγ expression in vivo and in cell culture. Research Methods and Procedures: Developing subcutaneous adipose tissues from the dorsal region of the fetal pig were collected at different gestation times and assayed using Western blot analysis to determine levels of PPARγ and C/EBPβ. Hypophysectomy was performed on 75‐day pig fetuses and tissue samples were then taken at 105 days for Western blot analysis. Adipose tissue was also taken from postnatal pigs to isolate stromal‐vascular (S‐V) cells. These adipose precursor cells were grown in culture and samples were taken for Western blot analysis to determine expression levels of PPARγ. Results: Our results indicate that PPARγ is expressed as early as 50 days of fetal development in adipose tissue and continues through 105 days. Expression of PPARγ was found to be significantly enhanced in adipose tissue from hypophysectomized fetuses at 105 days of fetal development (p < 0.05). C/EBPβ was not found in 50‐ or 75‐day fetal tissues and was found only at low levels in 105‐day tissues. C/EBPβ was not found in hypophysectomized (hypoxed) 105‐day tissue where PPARγ was elevated. S‐V cells freshly isolated from adipose tissue of 5‐ to 7‐day postnatal pigs showed the expression of PPARγ1. When S‐V cells were cultured, both PPARγ1 and 2 were expressed after the first day and continued as cells differentiated. High concentrations of retinoic acid decreased PPARγ expression in early S‐V cultures (p < 0.05). Discussion: Our data indicate that PPARγ is expressed in fetal adipose tissue very early before distinct fat cells are observed and can be expressed without the expression of C/EBPβ. The increase in PPARγ expression after hypophysectomy may explain the increase in fat cell size under these conditions. Adipose precursor cells (S‐V cells) from 5‐ to 7‐day postnatal pigs also express PPARγ in the tissue before being induced to differentiate in culture. Thus S‐V cells from newborn pig adipose tissue are probably more advanced in development than the 3T3‐L1 cell model. S‐V cells may be in a state where PPARγ and C/EBPα are expressed but new signals or vascularization are needed before cells are fully committed and lipid filling begins. 相似文献

Previous study has shown that thiazolidinediones (TZDs) improved endothelium insulin resistance (IR) induced by high glucose concentration (HG)/hyperglycaemia through a PPARγ‐dependent‐NFκB trans‐repression mechanism. However, it is unclear, whether changes in PPARγ expression affect the endothelium IR and what the underlying mechanism is. In the present study, we aimed to address this issue. HG‐treated human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) were transfected by either PPARγ‐overexpressing (Ad‐PPARγ) or PPARγ‐shRNA‐containing (Ad‐PPARγ‐shRNA) adenoviral vectors. Likewise, the rats fed by high‐fat diet (HFD) were infected by intravenous administration of Ad‐PPARγ or Ad‐PPARγ‐shRNA. The levels of nitric oxide (NO), endothelin‐1 (ET‐1) and cytokines (TNFα, IL‐6, sICAM‐1 and sVCAM‐1) and the expression levels of PPARγ, eNOS, AKT, p‐AKT, IKKα/β and p‐IKKα/β and IκBα were examined; and the interaction between PPARγ and NFκB‐P65 as well as vascular function were evaluated. Our present results showed that overexpression of PPARγ notably increased the levels of NO, eNOS, p‐AKT and IκBα as well as the interaction of PPARγ and NFκB‐P65, and decreased the levels of ET‐1, p‐IKKα/β, TNFα, IL‐6, sICAM‐1 and sVCAM‐1. In contrast, down‐expression of PPARγ displayed the opposite effects. The results demonstrate that the overexpression of PPARγ improves while the down‐expression worsens the endothelium IR via a PPARγ‐mediated NFκB trans‐repression dependent manner. The findings suggest PPARγ is a potential therapeutic target for diabetic vascular complications. 相似文献

There is evidence that angiotensin II (Ang II) may impair the functions of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). It was revealed that DJ‐1 could resist oxidative stress. In this study, we investigated whether DJ‐1 could protect EPCs against Ang II‐induced cell damage. The proliferation and migration of EPCs were strongly reduced in the Ang II group and were increased by overexpression of DJ‐1. Western blotting indicated that the increased expression of the senescence marker β‐galactosidase and decreased expression of adhesion molecules (ICAM‐1, VCAM‐1) induced by Ang II were reversed after Ad‐DJ‐1 transfection. The reduced angiogenic capacity of EPCs caused by Ang II was also improved after Ad‐DJ‐1 transfection. Moreover, Ang II significantly increased the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), and inflammatory cytokines (TNF‐α and IL‐1β), reduced the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), and these were reversed by Ad‐DJ‐1 transfection. Expression of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐γ (PPARγ) and heme oxygenase (HO‐1) was increased by DJ‐1. Therefore, HO‐1 siRNA were constructed and transfected into EPCs, and the results showed that HO‐1 siRNA transfection inhibited the effects of DJ‐1 on EPC function. Thus, our study implies that DJ‐1 may protect EPCs against Ang II‐induced dysfunction by activating the PPARγ/HO‐1. J. Cell. Biochem. 119: 392–400, 2018. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

STAMP2 is a counterregulator of inflammation and insulin resistance. The aim of this study is to investigate whether activation of STAMP2 improves insulin resistance by regulating macrophage polarization in adipose tissues. The diabetic ApoE−/−/LDLR−/− mouse model was induced by high-fat diet and low-dose streptozotocin. Samples were obtained from epididymal, subcutaneous and brown adipose tissues. Infiltration of M1/M2 macrophages and inflammatory cytokines were investigated by immunohistochemistry. We then used gene overexpression to investigate the effect of STAMP2 on macrophages infiltration and polarization and inflammatory cytokines expression. Our results showed that infiltration of macrophages, the ratio of M1/M2 macrophages and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines were enhanced and STAMP2 was downregulated in adipose tissues of diabetic ApoE−/−/LDLR−/− mice compared with control mice. STAMP2 gene overexpression could significantly reduce macrophages infiltration, the ratio of M1/M2 macrophages and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in epididymal and brown adipose tissues, improving insulin resistance. Our results suggested that STAMP2 gene overexpression may improve insulin resistance via regulating macrophage polarization in visceral and brown adipose tissues. 相似文献

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)δ is known to be expressed ubiquitously and involved in lipid and glucose metabolism. Recent studies have demonstrated that PPARδ is expressed in endothelial cells (ECs) and plays a potential role in endothelial survival and proliferation. Although PPARα and PPARγ are well recognized to play anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, and antiangiogenic roles in ECs, the general effect of PPARδ on angiogenesis in ECs remains unclear. Thus, we investigated the effect of the PPARδ ligand L-165041 on vascular EC proliferation and angiogenesis in vitro as well as in vivo. Our data show that L-165041 inhibited VEGF-induced cell proliferation and migration in human umbilical vein ECs (HUVECs). L-165041 also inhibited angiogenesis in the Matrigel plug assay and aortic ring assay. Flow cytometric analysis indicated that L-165041 reduced the number of ECs in the S phase and the expression levels of cell cycle regulatory proteins such as cyclin A, cyclin E, CDK2, and CDK4; phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma protein was suppressed by pretreatment with L-165041. We confirmed whether these antiangiogenic effects of L-165041 were PPARδ-dependent using GW501516 and PPARδ siRNA. GW501516 treatment did not inhibit VEGF-induced angiogenesis, and transfection of PPARδ siRNA did not reverse this antiangiogenic effect of L-165041, suggesting that the antiangiogenic effect of L-165041 on ECs is PPARδ-independent. Together, these data indicate that the PPARδ ligand L-165041 inhibits VEGF-stimulated angiogenesis by suppressing the cell cycle progression independently of PPARδ. This study highlights the therapeutic potential of L-165041 in the treatment of many disorders related to pathological angiogenesis. 相似文献

Our research aims to evaluate the function of the STAMP2 gene, an important trigger in insulin resistance (IR), and explore its role in macrophage apoptosis in diabetic atherosclerotic vulnerable plaques. The characteristics of diabetic mice were measured by serial metabolite and pathology tests. The level of STAMP2 was measured by RT‐PCR and Western blot. The plaque area, lipid and collagen content of brachiocephalic artery plaques were measured by histopathological analyses, and the macrophage apoptosis was measured by TUNEL. Correlation of STAMP2/Akt signaling pathway and macrophage apoptosis was validated by Ad‐STAMP2 transfection and STAMP2 siRNA inhibition. The diabetic mice showed typical features of IR, hyperglycaemia. Overexpression of STAMP2 ameliorated IR and decreased serum glucose level. In brachiocephalic lesions, lipid content, macrophage quantity and the vulnerability index were significantly decreased by overexpression of STAMP2. Moreover, the numbers of apoptotic cells and macrophages in lesions were both significantly decreased. In vitro, both mRNA and protein expressions of STAMP2 were increased under high glucose treatment. P‐Akt was highly expressed and caspase‐3 was decreased after overexpression of STAMP2. However, expression of p‐Akt protein was decreased and caspase‐3 was increased when STAMP2 was inhibited by siRNA. STAMP2 overexpression could exert a protective effect on diabetic atherosclerosis by reducing IR and diminishing macrophage apoptosis. 相似文献

Thiazolidinediones, the antidiabetic agents such as ciglitazone, has been proved to be effective in limiting atherosclerotic events. However, the underlying mechanism remains elucidative. Ox‐LDL receptor‐1 (LOX‐1) plays a central role in ox‐LDL‐mediated atherosclerosis via endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) uncoupling and nitric oxide reduction. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that ciglitazone, the PPARγ agonist, protected endothelial cells against ox‐LDL through regulating eNOS activity and LOX‐1 signalling. In the present study, rat microvascular endothelial cells (RMVECs) were stimulated by ox‐LDL. The impact of ciglitazone on cell apoptosis and angiogenesis, eNOS expression and phosphorylation, nitric oxide synthesis and related AMPK, Akt and VEGF signalling pathway were observed. Our data showed that both eNOS and Akt phosphorylation, VEGF expression and nitric oxide production were significantly decreased, RMVECs ageing and apoptosis increased after ox‐LDL induction for 24 hrs, all of which were effectively reversed by ciglitazone pre‐treatment. Meanwhile, phosphorylation of AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) was suppressed by ox‐LDL, which was also prevented by ciglitazone. Of interest, AMPK inhibition abolished ciglitazone‐mediated eNOS function, nitric oxide synthesis and angiogenesis, and increased RMVECs ageing and apoptosis. Further experiments showed that inhibition of PPARγ significantly suppressed AMPK phosphorylation, eNOS expression and nitric oxide production. Ciglitazone‐mediated angiogenesis and reduced cell ageing and apoptosis were reversed. Furthermore, LOX‐1 protein expression in RMVECs was suppressed by ciglitazone, but re‐enhanced by blocking PPARγ or AMPK. Ox‐LDL‐induced suppression of eNOS and nitric oxide synthesis were largely prevented by silencing LOX‐1. Collectively, these data demonstrate that ciglitazone‐mediated PPARγ activation suppresses LOX‐1 and moderates AMPK/eNOS pathway, which contributes to endothelial cell survival and function preservation. 相似文献

Microglia‐mediated neuroinflammation plays a dual role in various brain diseases due to distinct microglial phenotypes, including deleterious M1 and neuroprotective M2. There is growing evidence that the peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonist rosiglitazone prevents lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐induced microglial activation. Here, we observed that antagonizing PPARγ promoted LPS‐stimulated changes in polarization from the M1 to the M2 phenotype in primary microglia. PPARγ antagonist T0070907 increased the expression of M2 markers, including CD206, IL‐4, IGF‐1, TGF‐β1, TGF‐β2, TGF‐β3, G‐CSF, and GM‐CSF, and reduced the expression of M1 markers, such as CD86, Cox‐2, iNOS, IL‐1β, IL‐6, TNF‐α, IFN‐γ, and CCL2, thereby inhibiting NFκB–IKKβ activation. Moreover, antagonizing PPARγ promoted microglial autophagy, as indicated by the downregulation of P62 and the upregulation of Beclin1, Atg5, and LC3‐II/LC3‐I, thereby enhancing the formation of autophagosomes and their degradation by lysosomes in microglia. Furthermore, we found that an increase in LKB1–STRAD–MO25 complex formation enhances autophagy. The LKB1 inhibitor radicicol or knocking down LKB1 prevented autophagy improvement and the M1‐to‐M2 phenotype shift by T0070907. Simultaneously, we found that knocking down PPARγ in BV2 microglial cells also activated LKB1–AMPK signaling and inhibited NFκB–IKKβ activation, which are similar to the effects of antagonizing PPARγ. Taken together, our findings demonstrate that antagonizing PPARγ promotes the M1‐to‐M2 phenotypic shift in LPS‐induced microglia, which might be due to improved autophagy via the activation of the LKB1–AMPK signaling pathway. 相似文献

Argonaute2 (Ago2), a component protein of RNA-induced silencing complex, plays a central role in RNA interference. We focused on the involvement of Ago2 in angiogenesis. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) stimulated with several growth factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor were used for angiogenesis assays. We applied polycation liposomes for transfection of small interfering RNA (siRNA) to determine the biological effects of siRNA for Ago2 (siAgo2) on HUVECs. The proliferation study indicated that siAgo2 significantly suppressed the growth of HUVECs compared with control siRNA. TUNEL staining showed a certain population of HUVECs treated with siAgo2 underwent apoptosis. Furthermore, the treatment with siAgo2 suppressed the tube formation of HUVECs and significantly reduced the length of the tubes. These present data demonstrate that siAgo2 inhibited indispensable events of angiogenesis in vitro. This is the first report suggesting that Ago2 is required for angiogenesis. 相似文献

Correlation between periodontitis and atherosclerosis is well established, and the inherent mechanisms responsible for this relationship remain unclear. The biological function of growth arrest‐specific 6 (gas6) has been discovered in both atherosclerosis and inflammation. Inhibitory effects of gas6 on the expression of inflammatory factors in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) stimulated by Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (P. gingivalis‐LPS) were reported in our previous research. Herein, the effects of gas6 on monocytes‐endothelial cells interactions in vitro and their probable mechanisms were further investigated. Gas6 protein in HUVECs was knocked down with siRNA or overexpressed with plasmids. Transwell inserts and co‐culturing system were introduced to observe chemotaxis and adhering affinity between monocytes and endothelial cells in vitro. Expression of gas6 was decreased in inflammatory periodontal tissues and HUVECs challenged with P. gingivalis‐LPS. The inhibitory effect of gas6 on chemotaxis and adhesion affinity between monocytes and endothelial cells was observed, and gas6 promoted Akt phosphorylation and inhibited NF‐κB phosphorylation. To our best knowledge, we are first to report that gas6 inhibit monocytes‐endothelial cells interactions in vitro induced by P. gingivalis‐LPS via Akt/NF‐κB pathway. Additionally, inflammation‐mediated inhibition of gas6 expression is through LncRNA GAS6‐AS2, rather than GAS6‐AS1, which is also newly reported. 相似文献

Brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) which associate with angiogenesis due to local hypertension, chronic cerebral ischaemia and tissue hypoxia usually lead to haemorrhage, however, the therapeutic medicine for the disease is still lacking. 2‐methoxyestradiol (2‐ME) has been shown effective in the anti‐angiogenic treatment. This study was conducted to examine whether and how 2‐ME could improve the vascular malformations. Intracranial venous hypertension (VH) model produced in adult male Sprague‐Dawley rats and culture of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) at the anoxia condition were used to induce in vivo and in vitro angiogenesis, respectively. Lentiviral vectors of ID‐1 and p53 genes and of their siRNA were intracranially injected into rats and transfected into HUVECs to overexpress and down‐regulate these molecules. 2‐ME treatment not only reduced the in vivo progression of brain tissue angiogenesis in the intracranial VH rats and the in vitro increases in microvasculature formation, cellular migration and HIF‐1α expression induced by anoxia in HUVECs but also reversed the up‐regulation of ID‐1 and down‐regulation of p53 in both the in vivo and in vitro angiogenesis models. All of the anti‐angiogenesis effects of 2‐ME observed in VH rats and anoxic HUVECs were abrogated by ID‐1 overexpression and p53 knockdown. Our data collectively suggest that 2‐ME treatment inhibits hypoxia/anoxia‐induced angiogenesis dependently on ID‐1 down‐regulation and p53 up‐regulation, providing a potential alternative medical treatment for un‐ruptured AVM patients. 相似文献

Accumulating evidence suggests that inhibition of mitogen‐activated protein kinase signalling can reduce phosphorylation of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) at serine 273, which mitigates obesity‐associated insulin resistance and might be a promising treatment for type 2 diabetes. Dihydromyricetin (DHM) is a flavonoid that has many beneficial pharmacological properties. In this study, mouse fibroblast 3T3‐L1 cells were used to investigate whether DHM alleviates insulin resistance by inhibiting PPARγ phosphorylation at serine 273 via the MEK/ERK pathway. 3T3‐L1 pre‐adipocytes were differentiated, and the effects of DHM on adipogenesis and glucose uptake in the resulting adipocytes were examined. DHM was found to dose dependently increase glucose uptake and decrease adipogenesis. Insulin resistance was then induced in adipocytes using dexamethasone, and DHM was shown to dose and time dependently promote glucose uptake in the dexamethasone‐treated adipocytes. DHM also inhibited phosphorylation of PPARγ and ERK. Inhibition of PPARγ activity with GW9662 potently blocked DHM‐induced glucose uptake and adiponectin secretion. Interestingly, DHM showed similar effects to PD98059, an inhibitor of the MEK/ERK pathway. DHM acted synergistically with PD98059 to improve glucose uptake and adiponectin secretion in dexamethasone‐treated adipocytes. In conclusion, our findings indicate that DHM improves glucose uptake in adipocytes by inhibiting ERK‐induced phosphorylation of PPARγ at serine 273. 相似文献

To investigate whether Sirt1 could modulate fatty acid‐binding protein 3 (FABP3), we treated porcine adipocytes either with the Sirt1 inhibitor nicotinamide (NAM), with the Sirt1 activator resveratrol (RES), or by knockdown of Sirt1 by Sirt1‐siRNA. NAM or knockdown with Sirt1‐siRNA significantly inhibited Sirt1 mRNA expression, while increasing FABP3 mRNA levels. RES or RES + Sirt1‐siRNA treatments further proved that Sirt1 negatively regulated FABP3 gene expression in adipocytes. We also found a similar Sirt1 regulation pattern for PPARγ to that of FABP3 in adipocytes. Furthermore, NAM/RES + PPARγ‐siRNA treatments showed that Sirt1 may regulate the FABP3 gene expression partly through the PPARγ‐mediated signals. In summary, Sirt1 regulates the expression of FABP3 gene in adipocytes, and PPARγ apparently plays an important role in this process. J. Cell.

The 90‐kDa heat shock protein (Hsp90α) has been identified on the surface of cancer cells, and is implicated in tumor invasion and metastasis, suggesting that it is a potentially important target for tumor therapy. However, the regulatory mechanism of Hsp90α plasma membrane translocation during tumor invasion remains poorly understood. Here, we show that Hsp90α plasma membrane expression is selectively upregulated upon epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation, which is a process independent of the extracellular matrix. Abrogation of EGF‐mediated activation of phospholipase (PLCγ1) by its siRNA or inhibitor prevents the accumulation of Hsp90α at cell protrusions. Inhibition of the downstream effectors of PLCγ1, including Ca2+ and protein kinase C (PKCγ), also blocks the membrane translocation of Hsp90α, while activation of PKCγ leads to increased levels of cell‐surface Hsp90α. Moreover, overexpression of PKCγ increases extracellular vesicle release, on which Hsp90α is present. Furthermore, activation or overexpression of PKCγ promotes tumor cell motility in vitro and tumor metastasis in vivo, whereas a specific neutralizing monoclonal antibody against Hsp90α inhibits such effects, demonstrating that PKCγ‐induced Hsp90α translocation is required for tumor metastasis. Taken together, our study provides a mechanistic basis for the role for the PLCγ1–PKCγ pathway in regulating Hsp90α plasma membrane translocation, which facilitates tumor cell motility and promotes tumor metastasis. 相似文献
