Synergistic potentiation of thiazolidinedione-induced ST 13 preadipocyte differentiation by RAR synergists.

Abstract:

:Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR gamma) belongs to a nuclear receptor super family that functions as a master regulator of adipocyte differentiation. PPAR gamma binds its DNA response element together with a partner, retinoid X receptor (RXR), in fat cells. Five RXR ligands (HX600, HX630, DA022, DA124, LGD1069, referred to as retinoid synergists) by themselves exhibit weak transactivation activity on the PPAR gamma response element. However, addition of PPAR gamma-specific ligand in this assay gave rise to a 5- to 13-fold increase, indicating a strong synergy between these ligands. LGD1069 was the most effective activator of the RXR/PPAR gamma heterodimer on the transactivation of the reporter gene. But, in contrast to the other four RXR ligands, LGD1069 did not show synergistic induction of ST 13 preadipocytes to adipocytes. This apparent contradiction may result from the ligand-binding property of LGD1069. In this article we discuss the fact that retinoid synergists also act as PPAR gamma synergists.

  • Deoxynucleoside triphosphate pool changes and UV-induced depression of DNA synthesis.

    abstract::It has been reported that changes in deoxynucleotide pool levels following exposure to UV might lead to an overestimation of the UV-induced depression in DNA synthesis as analyzed by incorporation of 3H-thymidine (1). We attempted to determine the importance of such pool effects in two ways. First, we examined the gra...
