Research Abstract |
Presence and activities of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor(PPAR)-δandγwere confirmed in human proximal renal tubular epithelial cells and mesangial cells which inflammatory insults targeted mainly during progression of renal injury. An angiotensin II receptor blocker, telmisartan was shown to have PPAR-δandγ-induced transcriptional activities and increase expression of their target genes such as fatty acid-binding protein(FABP) and liver X receptor. Telmisartan also decreased gene expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1). In the mouse immortalized proximal renal tubular cell line with over-expression of human liver-type FABP, a putative transporter of PPAR ligands, mouse PPAR-δwas up-regulated and MCP-1 down-regulated. These results suggest that some bioactive molecules with a potential to affect function and dynamism of PPAR and FABP are candidates of new therapeutic reagents for chronic kidney disease.
