Transcriptional Repression of Atherogenic Inflammation: Modulation by PPARδ

Lee, Chih-Hao, Chawla, Ajay, Urbiztondo, Ned, Liao, Debbie, Boisvert, William A., Evans, Ronald M.·2003·Science

Abstract

The formation of an atherosclerotic lesion is mediated by lipid-laden macrophages (foam cells), which also establish chronic inflammation associated with lesion progression. The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) γ promotes lipid uptake and efflux in these atherogenic cells. In contrast, we found that the closely related receptor PPARδ controls the inflammatory status of the macrophage. Deletion of PPARδ from foam cells increased the availability of inflammatory suppressors, which in turn reduced atherosclerotic lesion area by more than 50%. We propose an unconventional ligand-dependent transcriptional pathway in which PPARδ controls an inflammatory switch through its association and disassociation with transcriptional repressors. PPARδ and its ligands may thus serve as therapeutic targets to attenuate inflammation and slow the progression of atherosclerosis.

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.
