21 10373474 The AP-1 motif appears to be a target for insulin signaling because it is sufficient to mediate an effect of insulin on the expression of a heterologous fusion gene, whereas the data suggest that the Ets motif acts to enhance the effect of insulin mediated through the AP-1 motif.

79 12918586 MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were measured in 30 healthy control subjects (Group A), 20 type 2 diabetic hemodialysis patients without obvious arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) (Group B), and 20 type 2 diabetic hemodialysis patients with ASO (Group C).

158 19007749 In addition, Ad-IkappaB alpha (S32A, S36A) prevented IL-1beta-induced inflammatory responses; namely, the production of chemokines, such as ENA-78 and RANTES, and activation of MMP-1 and MMP-3.
159 19094928 Peroxisome proliferators activated receptors (PPAR) are ligand-inducible nuclear transacting factors comprising three subtypes, PPARalpha, PPARbeta/delta and PPARgamma, which play a key role in lipids and glucose homeostasis.
160 19094928 All PPAR subtypes have been identified in joint or inflammatory cells and their activation resulted in a transcriptional repression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1, TNFalpha), early inflammatory genes (NOS(2), COX-2, mPGES-1) or matrix metalloproteases (MMP-1, MMP-13), at least for the gamma subtype.
161 19094928 PPAR full agonists were also shown to stimulate IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) production by cytokine-stimulated articular cells in a subtype-dependent manner.
162 19094928 These anti-inflammatory and anti-catabolic properties were confirmed in animal models of joint diseases where PPAR agonists reduced synovial inflammation while preventing cartilage destruction or inflammatory bone loss, although many effects required much higher doses than needed to restore insulin sensitivity or to lower circulating lipid levels.
163 19094928 However, these promising effects of PPAR full agonists were hampered by their ability to reduce the growth factor-dependent synthesis of extracellular matrix components or to induce chondrocyte apoptosis, by the possible contribution of immunosuppressive properties to their anti-arthritic effects, by the increased adipocyte differentiation secondary to prolonged stimulation of PPARgamma, and by a variable contribution of PPAR subtypes depending on the system.

313 20382513 Exposure of cells to HG caused significant increases in collagen IV secretion and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) expression, which was appeased by RLW and RLE at transcriptional levels.
