Microarray analysis of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-? induced changes in gene expression in macrophages

Microarray analysis of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-? induced changes in gene expression in macrophages
We used a combination of expression microarray and Northern blot analyses to identify target genes for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) ? in RAW264.7 macrophages. PPAR? natural ligand 15-deoxy-?12,14 prostaglandin and synthetic ligands ciglitazone and rosiglitazone increased the expression of scavenger receptor CD36 and ATP-binding cassette transporter A1, as well as adipophilin (a lipid droplet coating protein involved in intracellular lipid storage and transport), calpain (a protease implicated in ABCA1 protein degradation), and ADAM8 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease protein involved in cell adhesion). These findings are relevant to understanding the effect of PPAR? activation on gene expression and cognate pathways in macrophages.

Abstract

We used a combination of expression microarray and Northern blot analyses to identify target genes for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) ? in RAW264.7 macrophages. PPAR? natural ligand 15-deoxy-?12,14 prostaglandin and synthetic ligands ciglitazone and rosiglitazone increased the expression of scavenger receptor CD36 and ATP-binding cassette transporter A1, as well as adipophilin (a lipid droplet coating protein involved in intracellular lipid storage and transport), calpain (a protease implicated in ABCA1 protein degradation), and ADAM8 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease protein involved in cell adhesion). These findings are relevant to understanding the effect of PPAR? activation on gene expression and cognate pathways in macrophages.
