Objective To explore the effect ofrosiglitazone (RGZ), a ligand of peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor γ (PPARγ), on the invasiveness of A375 cells in vitro and its mechanism of action.Methods A375 human melanoma cells were cultured in vitro and treated with different concentrations of RGZ. The proliferation of the cells, mRNA expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP) 2, protein expression of MMP2 in A375 cells were detected by MTT assay, semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western-blot, respectively. The invasiveness of A375 cells was detected by Matrigel invasion assay. Results MTT assay showed that the proliferation of A375 cells was inhibited by (4.86±0.31 )% and (5.15±0.52)% under the 24-hour treatment with RGZ of 10 and 25 μmol/L, respectively, and no evident cytotoxity was observed for RGZ. Compared with untreated A375 ceils, a significant decrease was observed in the mRNA and protein expression of MMP2 in A375 ceils treated with RGZ of 10 and 25 μmol/L (all P < 0.05), along with an increase in the mRNA expression of TIMP2 (both P < 0.01 ).The count of A375 cells transmigrating through matrigel was 154.1±7.7 and 87.3±8.1 under the treatment with RGZ of 10 and 25 μmol/L, significantly lower than that of those without treatment (210.7±14.9,both P < 0.01 ). Conclusions RGZ could inhibit the transmigration of A375 ceils, likely by down-regulating the mRNA and protein expression of MMP2.

BACKGROUND:Renal ischemia/reperfusion during renal transplant surgery induces the process of apoptosis signaling pathways.Propofol possibly protects kidney from renal ischemia/reperfusion injury.So it is important to investigate propofol's mechanism underlying apoptosis.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of propofol on apoptosis signaling pathways in a rat model of renal ischemia/reperfusion injury and the possible mechanism of action.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:An animal experiment,cell morphology observation was performed at the laboratory of the Department of Urinary Surgery,Beijing Friendship Hospital between 2004 and 2005.MATERIALS:A total of 99 male adult outbred Sprague Dawley rats were included in this study.Rabbit anti-rat Bcl-2,Bax,caspase 3,and cytochrome C were produced in Wuhan Boster Bioengineering Co.,Ltd.,China.METHODS:Rats were randomly divided into three groups:control(n = 26),ischemia/reperfusion(n = 35),and ischemia/reperfusion+propofol(n = 38).Rat model of renal ischemia/reperfusion injury was established in each group as follows.Following single intravenous transfusion of 5 mL/kg ringer lactate solution,the right kidney was excised through a median abdominal incision.The left renal pedicle was occluded for 45 minutes using an atraumatic vascular clamp,followed by reperfusion and full-layer suture.At 0,3,12,24,and 72 hours after reperfusion,the left kidney was excised,and simultaneously,rat was sacrificed through bloodletting.In the ischemia/reperfusion+propofol group,propofol(1 mg/kg per minute)was administered from 15 minutes prior to ischemia to 30 minutes after reperfusion,for a total of 75 minutes.In the control and ischemia/reperfusion groups,rats were administered the same amount of ringer lactate solution.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Morphological changes of injured kidney and expression of apoptosis-related protein Bcl-2,Bax,caspase 3 and cytochrome C.RESULTS:Renal ischemia/reperfusion-caused kidney damages could be observed through an optical microscope,and proximal convoluted tubule was severest,followed by distal convoluted and collecting duct,and lastly renal glomerulus.Immunohistochemistry results demonstrated that compared with the control group,Bax,caspase 3,and cytochrome C expression was increased,but no obvious change in Bcl-2 expression was observed in the ischemia/reperfusion group;compared with the control group,Bax,caspase 3 and cytochrome C expression was significantly decreased,but Bcl-2 expression was significantly increased in the ischemia/reperfusion+propofol group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:Propofol is likely to exhibit protective effects on cellular apoptosis caused by renal ischemia/reperfusion.Propofol inhibits pro-apoptotic protein Bax,caspase 3 and cytochrome C expression but does not produce effects on Bcl-2 expression.The underlying mechanism correlates with apoptosis signaling pathways in mitochondrion.

The identification of the relationships between mutations of the bone morphogenetic protein type Ⅱ receptor (BMPR2) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has been considered to be one of the most significant discoveries in this area in the 21st century. And BMPR2 mutation is responsible for the majority of hereditary PAH as well as some of idiopathic PAH. Furthermore, clinical and animal expreimental research over the past few years has revealed that BMPR2 signaling pathway plays a critical role in the initiation and progress of PAH, by participateing in the pathogenesis of PAH. In addition, the potential that BMPR2 signaling pathway is used as a therapeutic target is being evaluated. This review summarizes our current understanding of the role of BMPR2 mutations in PAH from the perspectives of genetics, epigenetics, inflammation as well as interactions with other significant pathways.
