Objective To study whether the protective effects of fenofibrate on insulin resistance in mice of nonal-coholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) are related to endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS). Methods Male C57BL/6 mice were fed with high-calorie and high-cholesterol diet ( HCD) to induce a model of NAFLD, then one of those two groups from HCD was treated with fenofibrate 40 mg/( kg · d ) for 2 weeks ( HCF ) . Glucose tolerance test (GTT) and insulin tolerance test (ITT) were used to analyze the improvement on insulin resistance. The serum levels of triglyceride ( TG) , total cholesterol ( TC) , high density lipoprotein-cholesterol ( HDL-C) , low density lip-oprotein-cholesterol ( LDL-C) , alanine aminotransferase ( ALT) and aspartic transaminase ( AST) were detected. The pathological changes of livers were detected with HE and Oil Red O staining, the mRNA and protein expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorα( PPARα) , glucose regulated protein 78 ( GRP78 ) and transcription factors GADD153 ( CHOP) were detected with real-time quantification PCR and Western blot analysis respectively. Results Compared with the SCD mice, the HCD mice showed significant insulin resistance, higher serum levels of TG, TC and LDL-C (P<0. 01, P<0. 05), lower serum level of HDL-C (P<0. 01), micro-and macrovesicular steatosis, ballooned hepatocytes and infiltration of inflammatory cells were observed in the liver, the expressions of PPARα and GRP78 at mRNA and protein levels were decreased (P<0. 05), however, the expressions of CHOP at mRNA and protein levels were increased ( P<0 . 05 ) . Fenofibrate intervention significantly improved insulin resist-ance and decreased the serum level of TG ( P<0. 05 ) . Fenofibrate also alleviated hepatic steatosis and inflammato-ry infiltration, and increased the mRNA and protein expressions of PPARα and GRP78, decreased the mRNA and protein expression of CHOP ( P<0 . 05 ) . Conclusion Fenofibrate significantly improves insulin resistance and de-creases the serum level of TG in NAFLD mice, which may be related to activating PPARα and relieving ERS.

Objective: To clone cDNA of human interleukin-29(IL-29) and express it in cos-7 cells, and to study its anti-HBV activity in vitro. Methods: Total RNA was extracted from PBMCs which had been infected with vesicular stomatitis virus(VSV) in vitro.IL-29 cDNA was amplified using one-step RT-PCR technique. The recombinant expressing plasimd of psectagB/His-myc-IL29 was constructed by inserting IL-29 cDNA into the vector and was then transfected into cos-7 cells. Stable expression stains were screened by Hygromycin B and limited dilution method. The target protein was purified through Ni2+-chelating Sepharose Fast Flow. Anti-viral bioactivity of the recombinant IL-29 fusion protein was analyzed through an in vitro model of production of HBV by the HepG2.2.2.15 cell line.ELISA was used for detection of the viral titers in the cell cultural supernants. Results: IL-29 was cloned and stably expressed in cos-7 cells successfully. SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis showed multiple bands of the target protein with the molecular weights between 20 000 and 33 000, and the major band was located at about 33 000, indicating the fused IL-29 modified by additional glycosylation. The rhIL-29 was shown to dose-dependently inhibit secretion of HBsAg and HBeAg accompanied by the reduction of HBV genomic DNA in the cells tested. The inhibition ratio of HBsAg and HBeAg production was attained 85% at a concentration of 160 ?g/L of rhIL-29. Conclusion: The rhIL-29 with anti-HBV activity has been obtained.

Objective To study the influences of fenofibrate on oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress in livers of hyperlipidemic rats. Methods Male SD rats were fed with high-fat diet for 12 weeks to induce a model of hyperlipidemia, then divided into control group, high-fat diet group with another four-week high-fat diet and fenofibrate group, in which rats were treated with fenofibrate [100 mg / (kg·d)] for 4 weeks. Then improvement of insulin resistance was detected in rats with GTT and ITT experiment. The serum levels of glucose (GLU), fasting insulin (FINS),triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC) were detected. The pathological changes of livers were detected with Oil Red O staining. The oxidative stress indices such as T-SOD, Mn-SOD, GSH and T-AOC were detected with liver homogenate. The expression of GRP78 was detected with real-time quantification RT-PCR and Western blot analysis respectively. Results Compared with rats with high-fat-diet, rats after fenofibrate treatment showed obviously improved insulin resistance, lower serum level of TG, TC and FINS (P < 0.05), decreased number and size of lipid droplets in liver tissue sections. T-SOD level in liver homogenate was significantly increased (P < 0.05), while GSH and T-AOC levels increased but had no obvious differences when compared with control group (P > 0.05). The expression of GRP78 at mRNA and protein levels were increased significantly after fenofibrate treatment (P < 0.05). Conclusions Fenofibrate has significant effects on improving insulin resistance and lipid regulation, which might be related to decreased oxidative stress and subsequent endoplasmic reticulum stress.

Aim To investigate endoplasmic reticulum stress ( ERS)-mediated high-fat diet and palmitic acid-induced insulin resistance ( IR) in skeletal muscle and interventional effects of fenofibrate both in vivo and in vitro tests. Methods Female SD rats were randomly subjected to a standard control diet ( SCD) or high-fat diet ( HFD) for 20 weeks, then the HFD group was di-vided into high-fat-diet group and high-fat-diet group treated with fenofibrate ( HFD +FF, 30 mg · kg-1 · d-1 ) for another 8 weeks. The changes of IR and ex-pression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α( PPARα) , glucose regulated protein 78 ( GRP78 ) and transcription factors GADD153 ( CHOP ) were as-sessed respectively. C2C12 myotubes were divided into normal control group ( NC ) , model group ( palmitic acid, PA) , postive control drug group ( tunicamycin, TM) and treatment group ( fenofibric acid, FA+PA) , the expressions of GRP78 and CHOP were assessed re-spectively. Insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt was also analyzed to detect changes of insulin sensitivi-ty in C2 C12 . Results The high-fat diet induced obvi-ous IR and upregulated ERS markers GRP78 and CHOP in skeletal muscle of rats, and these responses were attenuated by treatment with fenofibrate. Incuba-tion of myotubes with palmitic acid or tunicamycin sig-nificantly increased expression of ERS markers GRP78 and CHOP. Meanwhile, insulin-stimulated phosphoryl-ation of Akt was inhibited obviously. Pre-incubation with FA markedly inverted PA-induced ERS and insu-lin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt. Conclusion Fenofibrate ( fenofibric acid) has obvious effects of IR on skeletal muscle tissues and cells, which may be re-lated with reduced expression of GRP78 and CHOP in ERS.
