Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) in human endothelial cells, and their effects on plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 transcription. METHODS: The expression of three types of PPARs in mRNA level were detected in human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs) by using RT-PCR. Cultured endothelial cells line-ECV304 were transfected with PAI-1 promoter controlling CAT reporter gene and co-transfected with varying doses (250, 500, 1 000 ng) of expression vectors PPAR? or PPAR?.The transcripton activity of PAI-1 promoter were detected with ELISA. RESULTS: There were all three types of PPARs mRNA expression in HUVECs, while the expression of PPAR? was less than that of PPAR?( P
