Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of peroxisome proliferators-activated recepter-γ (PPARγ) and retinoid X receptor-or (RXRα) and the inhibitory effect of PLAB, ligand of PPARγ and 9-cisRA, ligand of RXRα on growth of human leukemia cell lines (HL-60, K562and U937) in vitro. Methods The antiproliferative effect was evaluated by MTT assay. The mRNA expression of PPARγ and RXRα was semi-quantified by RT-PCR. Results PPARγ and RXRα mRNA was both expressed in HL-60, K562 and U937 cells, and the expression in HI,-60 was significantly higher than that in K562 and U937. The significant inhibitory effect on the growth of HL-60 cells was observed in K562 and U937 cells. The combination group showed more inhibitory effect in HL-60 cells than PLAB alone(P＜0.05).PLAB significantly up-regulates the expression of PPARγ in HL-60 cells, the expression of PPARγ and RXRα were higher in combination group than PLAB alone (P＜0.05). Conclusion The expression of PPARγand RXRα in HL-60, K562 and U937 cell lines predicts their response to PLAB and 9-cisRA treatment, and the inhibitory effect is different in these three kinds of cell lines, which may be related to their ligandsmediated signal pathway.
