On the mechanism for PPAR agonists to enhance ABCA1 gene expression

Abstract: Expression of ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), a major regulator of high density lipoprotein (HDL) biogenesis, is known to be up-regulated by the transcription factor liver X receptor (LXR) α, and expression is further enhanced by activation of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARs). We investigated this complex regulatory network using specific PPAR agonists: four fibrates (fenofibrate, bezafibrate, gemfibrozil and LY518674), a PPAR δ agonist (GW501516) and a PPAR γ agonist (piogl… Show more

“…Expressions of ABCA1, LXR and PPAR were reduced in the liver of PPAR -null mice, consistent with our previous findings in fibroblasts derived from PPAR -null mice 19) . These genes are all involved in HDL biogenesis so that production of HDL is likely reduced in these animals.…”
