Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) is being studied intensively for its role in carcinogenesis and in mediating the effects of prostate cancer treatment and prevention drugs. Prostate cancers express abundant and higher constitutive levels of PPAR-gamma than do normal prostate cells and are growth inhibited by ligand activation of PPAR-gamma. However, little is known ...
The main etiologic factor for chronic bronchitis is cigarette smoke. Exposure to cigarette smoke is reported to induce goblet cell hyperplasia and mucus production. Mucin synthesis in airways has been reported to be regulated by the EGFR system. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) is a member of the ligand-activated nuclear receptor superfamily. PPAR-gamma is implicate...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that plays an important role in the regulation of insulin sensitivity and lipid metabolism. Evidence shows that PPAR-gamma agonists also ameliorate renal fibrotic lesions in both diabetic nephropathy and nondiabetic chronic kidney disease. However, little is known about the mechanism underly...
Low birth weight (LBW) babies are associated with neonatal morbidity and mortality at increased risk for noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in later life. However, the molecular determinants of LBW not well understood. Placental insufficiency/dysfunction is most frequent etiology fetal growth restriction resulting placental epigenetic processes suggested to be important regulators pregnancy outcom...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma is required for adipogenesis but is also found in the cardiovascular system, where it has been proposed to oppose inflammatory pathways and act as a growth suppressor. PPAR-gamma agonists, thiazolidinediones (TZDs), inhibit cardiomyocyte growth in vitro and in pressure overload models. Paradoxically, TZDs also induce cardiac hypertrophy in...
The focus of the current review is to highlight some new insights into the molecular mechanism by which vitamin D, a potentially nutritionally modulated factor, influences adipogenesis. Recent studies, predominantly using the mouse 3T3-L1 pre-adipocyte cell culture model, have shown that the role of vitamin D in inhibiting adipogenesis is mediated at the molecular level through a vitamin D rece...
Pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by alterations in fibroblast phenotypes resulting in excessive extracellular matrix accumulation and anatomic remodeling. Current therapies for this condition are largely ineffective. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) is a member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily, the activation of which produces a number of biological ef...
In recent years, the study of the peroxisome proliferators activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma) as a potential target for cancer prevention and therapy has gained a strong interest. However, the overall biological significance of PPAR-gamma in cancer development and progression is still controversial. While many reports documented antiproliferative effects in human cancer cell and animal model...
T helper cells secreting interleukin (IL)-17 (Th17 cells) play a crucial role in autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS). Th17 differentiation, which is induced by a combination of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta/IL-6 or IL-21, requires expression of the transcription factor retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor gamma t (ROR gamma t). We identify the nuclear receptor per...
Neutrophils (polymorphonuclear leukocytes [PMNs]) are critical to the immune response, including clearance of infectious pathogens. Sepsis is associated with impaired PMN function, including chemotaxis. PMNs express peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma), a ligand-activated nuclear transcription factor involved in immune and inflammatory regulation. The role of PPAR-gamma...
