pubmed:abstractText |
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) gamma belongs to the nuclear receptor superfamily of ligand-dependent transcription factors. Recent results have shown that the ligands for nuclear receptors have rapid effects so called "nongenomic" effects, which are observed within minutes after stimulation. We examined whether 15-deoxy-Delta(12,14)-prostaglandin J(2) (15-d-PGJ2) had rapid effects on cultured vascular smooth muscle cells. Phosphorylation of ERK and c-fos mRNA expression were determined by Western and Northern blot analyses, respectively. PPAR gamma agonists 15-d-PGJ2 and thiazolidinediones such as pioglitazone and troglitazone elicited rapid activation of ERK within 15 min and induced c-fos mRNA expression within 30 min, whereas the PPAR alpha agonist bezafibrate failed to activate ERK. 15-d-PGJ2-induced expression of c-fos mRNA was blocked by PD98059 or U0126, two ERK kinase inhibitors, suggesting that the MEK/ERK pathway mediates 15-d-PGJ2-induced c-fos gene expression. Furthermore, pretreatment with wortmannin, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3 (PI3)-kinase, inhibited 15-d-PGJ2-induced ERK activation and c-fos mRNA expression, suggesting that PI3-kinase is involved in the process. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay showed that 15-d-PGJ2 enhanced AP-1 binding activity to AP-1 consensus sequence in a time-dependent manner. 15-d-PGJ2 increased thymidine incorporation in a PI3-kinase-dependent manner. Taken together, our findings show that 15-d-PGJ2 and thiazolidinediones activate the MEK/ERK pathway through PI3-kinase and lead to c-fos mRNA expression and DNA synthesis. These findings indicate a novel regulatory mechanism of gene expression by 15-d-PGJ2 and thiazolidinediones.
