Role of Peroxisome Proliferator‐Activated Receptor Gamma and Its Ligands in the Treatment of Hematological Malignancies

Abstract: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) is a multifunctional transcription factor with important regulatory roles in inflammation, cellular growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. PPARγ is expressed in a variety of immune cells as well as in numerous leukemias and lymphomas. Here, we review recent studies that provide new insights into the mechanisms by which PPARγ ligands influence hematological malignant cell growth, differentiation, and survival. Understanding the diverse properties of PPAR… Show more

“…Activation of PPARg isoforms elicits both anti-neoplastic (Grommes et al 2004, Garcia-Bates et al 2008) and anti-inflammatory effects (Antonelli et al 2006) in several types of mammalian cells. Recently, it has been shown that agonists of PPARg induce apoptosis and exert antiproliferative effects on human papillary carcinoma cells (Ohta et al 2001), prevent distant metastasis of BHP18-21 tumors in nude mice in vivo (Ohta et al 2001), and induce redifferentiation in thyroid cancer cell lines (Klopper et al 2004, Philips et al 2004, Frohlich et al 2005, Park et al 2005, Aiello et al 2006, demonstrating effective therapeutic agents for the treatment of patients with thyroid cancer that fail to respond to traditional treatments (Klopper et al 2004, Philips et al 2004, Frohlich et al 2005, Park et al 2005.…”

“…PPARγ affects normal and malignant B cell differentiation and proliferation (21, 33). Considering that B cells from PPARγ-deficient mice produced less IgG upon activation, we investigated if there were any differences in cell proliferation.…”

“…It has been reported that PPARg activation inhibits cell growth [31] and causes differentiation and apoptosis in a variety of cancer cell types [32]. Activation of PPARg has been shown to change mitochondrial membrane permeability resulted in the induction of cellular apoptosis [32].…”
