(Pituitary Neoplasms) :
Activation of PPARalpha and
PPARgamma increased mRNA levels of
follistatin , but did not affect the expression of follistatin related gene
Necela et al., J Biol Chem 2008
:
The mechanism of
PPARgamma mediated down-regulation of
follistatin was investigated using non transformed, rat intestinal epithelial cells ( RIE-1 ) ... Using RIE-1 cells, we show that activation of
PPARgamma by rosiglitazone
reduced follistatin mRNA levels in a dose- and concentration dependent manner ... Targeting the AP-1 pathway with SP600125, an inhibitor of JNK, and TAM67, a dominant negative c-Jun, had no effect on
PPARgamma mediated down-regulation of
follistatin ... However, the
follistatin promoter was dramatically regulated by Sp1, and this regulation was
inhibited by
PPARgamma expression ... Collectively, our data indicate that repression of Sp1 transcriptional activity by PPARgamma is the underlying mechanism responsible for
PPARgamma mediated regulation of
follistatin expression
