Abstract

This study demonstrates that the expression of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR alpha) is regulated by glucocorticoid hormones in hepatocytes. Hydrocortisone, dexamethasone, and triamcinolone stimulated PPAR alpha mRNA synthesis in a dose-dependent manner in primary rat hepatocyte cultures. This glucocorticoid stimulation was inhibited by RU 486, a specific glucocorticoid antagonist. Moreover, in contrast to glucocorticoid hormones, the mineralocorticoid aldosterone had only a weak effect, suggesting that the hormonal stimulation of PPAR alpha was mediated by the glucocorticoid receptor. The induction was not prevented by cycloheximide treatment of the hepatocytes, indicating that it was mediated by preexisting glucocorticoid receptor. Finally, the RNA synthesis inhibitor actinomycin D abolished the stimulatory effect of dexamethasone, and nuclear run-on analysis showed an increase of PPAR alpha transcripts after hormonal induction. Thus, the PPAR alpha gene is an early response gene of glucocorticoids that control its expression at the transcriptional level.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
