چکیده

PPARgamma plays a central role in the formation of fat. Regulation of PPARgamma activity depends on numerous factors ranging from dietary ligands to nuclear hormone coactivators and corepressors to oxygen-sensing mechanisms. In addition, the interplay of PPARgamma with other nuclear hormone receptors has implications for the balance between adipogenesis and osteogenesis in mesenchymal stem cells of the bone marrow stroma. This review will explore a range of factors influencing PPARgamma activity and how these interactions may affect osteogenesis.

PPARγ potentiates anticancer effects of gemcitabine on human pancreatic cancer cells.

In order to improve the prognosis of patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer, there is an urgent need for enhancement of the anticancer effect of gemcitabine (Gem), a first-line drug for the disease. Here, we demonstrated that ligands for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) such as pioglitazone (Pio) and rosiglitazone potenti...

Biological behaviors of muscarinic receptors in mesenchymal stem cells derived from human placenta and bone marrow

Objective(s): Cells perform their functional activities by communicating with each other through endogenous substances and receptors. Post-translation, stem cells function properly in new host tissue by carrying specific cell surface receptors. We aimed to characterize muscarinic receptor subtypes in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) together with osteogenic and adipogenic...

Comparison of Fluoroplastic Causse Loop Piston and Titanium Soft-Clip in Stapedotomy

Introduction:Different types of prosthesis are available for stapes replacement. Because there has been no published report on the efficacy of the titanium soft-clip vs the fluoroplastic Causse loop Teflon piston, we compared short-term hearing results of both types of prosthesis in patients who underwent stapedotomy due to otosclerosis.Materials and Methods:A total of 57 ears were included in ...

Comparison of Titanium vs. Polycel Total Ossicular Replacement Prosthesis

Introduction: Even though modern technology progresses so rapidly, annals of otology are replete with so many challenging article, which often compare various types of prosthesis. Since there has not been a prospective randomized clinical trial study which compares the hearing result of total ossicular replacement prosthesis made of Titanium with omega connector and Polycel in the literature, w...

Modulation of the Transcriptional Activity of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma by Protein-Protein Interactions and Post-Translational Modifications

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) belongs to a nuclear receptor superfamily; members of which play key roles in the control of body metabolism principally by acting on adipose tissue. Ligands of PPARγ, such as thiazolidinediones, are widely used in the treatment of metabolic syndromes and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Although these drugs have potential benefits in the...
