Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ Ligands Reduce Neuronal Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Expression and Cell Death In Vivo
Open accessAbstract
Expression of the inducible form of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in brain may contribute to neurotoxicity in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Expression of iNOS can be induced in cerebellar granule cells (CGCs) in vivo as well as in vitro, allowing these cells to be used to study regulation of neuronal iNOS expression. We report here that microinjection of bacterial lipopolysaccharide and interferon gamma into rat cerebellum induced iNOS expression in CGCs and subsequent cell death assessed by staining for DNA fragmentation. Co-injection of three structurally distinct agonists of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma), including the antidiabetic thiazolidinedione troglitazone, the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) ibuprofen, and the prostanoid 15-deoxy-Delta(12,14) prostaglandin J(2), reduced both iNOS expression and cell death, whereas co-injection of the selective cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor NS-398 had no effect. These data demonstrate that PPARgamma agonists can modulate inflammatory responses in brain. Because sustained medication with NSAIDs reduces the risk and delays the onset of AD, these results further suggest that NSAIDs provide therapeutic value by binding to PPARgamma present in AD brain, thereby preventing iNOS expression and neuronal cell death.

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.
