Abstract:
AIM:To study the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-? (PPAR-?) signal transduction pathway in cardiac hypertrophy induced by high glucose and insulin (HGI). METHODS:The cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were used to observe the effect of fenofibrate (FF),a selective PPAR-? agonist,on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by HGI (glucose at concentration of 25.5 mmol/L and insulin at 0.1 ?mol/L). The cardiomyocyte hypertrophic responses were assayed by measuring the cell surface area,protein content,and mRNA expression of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF). The expressions of mRNA and protein were assayed by real -time PCR and Western blotting. RESULTS:In cultured cardiomyocytes,HGI induced profound change of hypertrophic morphology,the significant increase in cell surface area,protein content and ANF mRNA expression compared to those in vehicle control (P
