Abstract

The nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) promotes adipocyte differentiation, exerts atherogenic and anti-inflammatory effects in monocyte/macrophages, and is believed to mediate the insulin-sensitizing action of antidiabetic thiazolidinedione ligands. As no complete PPARgamma antagonists have been described hitherto, we have constructed a dominant-negative mutant receptor to inhibit wild-type PPARgamma action. Highly conserved hydrophobic and charged residues (Leu(468) and Glu(471)) in helix 12 of the ligand-binding domain were mutated to alanine. This compound PPARgamma mutant retains ligand and DNA binding, but exhibits markedly reduced transactivation due to impaired coactivator (cAMP-response element-binding protein-binding protein and steroid receptor coactivator-1) recruitment. Unexpectedly, the mutant receptor silences basal gene transcription, recruits corepressors (the silencing mediator of retinoid and thyroid receptors and the nuclear corepressor) more avidly than wild-type PPARgamma, and exhibits delayed ligand-dependent corepressor release. It is a powerful dominant-negative inhibitor of cotransfected wild-type receptor action. Furthermore, when expressed in primary human preadipocytes using a recombinant adenovirus, this PPARgamma mutant blocks thiazolidinedione-induced differentiation, providing direct evidence that PPARgamma mediates adipogenesis. Our observations suggest that, as in other mutant nuclear receptor contexts (acute promyelocytic leukemia, resistance to thyroid hormone), dominant-negative inhibition by PPARgamma is linked to aberrant corepressor interaction. Adenoviral expression of this mutant receptor is a valuable means to antagonize PPARgamma signaling.

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.
