Thiazolidinediones inhibit REG Ialpha gene transcription in gastrointestinal cancer cells.

Abstract:

:REG (Regenerating gene) Ialpha protein functions as a growth factor for gastrointestinal cancer cells, and its mRNA expression is strongly associated with a poor prognosis in gastrointestinal cancer patients. We here demonstrated that PPARgamma-agonist thiazolidinediones (TZDs) inhibited cell proliferation and REG Ialpha protein/mRNA expression in gastrointestinal cancer cells. TZDs inhibited the REG Ialpha gene promoter activity, via its cis-acting element which lacked PPAR response element and could not bind to PPARgamma, in PPARgamma-expressing gastrointestinal cancer cells. The inhibition was reversed by co-treatment with a specific PPARgamma-antagonist GW9662. Although TZDs did not inhibit the REG Ialpha gene promoter activity in PPARgamma-non-expressing cells, PPARgamma overexpression in the cells recovered their inhibitory effect. Taken together, TZDs inhibit REG Ialpha gene transcription through a PPARgamma-dependent pathway. The TZD-induced REG Ialpha mRNA reduction was abolished by cycloheximide, indicating the necessity of novel protein(s) synthesis. TZDs may therefore be a candidate for novel anti-cancer drugs for patients with gastrointestinal cancer expressing both REG Ialpha and PPARgamma.

  • Malignant transformation of an epithelial cell by v-Src via tv-a-mediated retroviral infection: a new cell model for studying carcinogenesis.

    abstract::Most human cancers are of epithelial origin, but many cell culture models for the study of cancer-causing genes use fibroblasts. In addition, efficient delivery and stable expression of foreign genes into non-transformed cell lines are often difficult. To address both questions, we here established a non-transformed r...
