We also correlated EZR and PPARγ expression in our series of CRC specimens and the expression profiling of all five proteins levels in the publicly available colon cancer genomic data from Oncomine and Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) datasets.
However, only retroviral transduction of the wild-type (WT), but not mutant, receptor could restore PPARgamma ligand-induced growth inhibition and differentiation in resistant colon cancer cell lines.
There was a significant interaction between the -200A>C IGFBP3 polymorphism and the Pro12AlaPPARgamma polymorphism and risk of colon cancer (p for interaction = 0.02) with individuals being at significantly lower risk if they had both the CC IGFBP3 genotype and the PA/AA PPARgamma genotype.
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) gamma is expressed in human colon cancer, prostate cancer and breast cancer cells, and PPARgamma activation induces growth inhibition in these cells.
1,1-Bis(3'-indolyl)-1-(p-substitutedphenyl)methanes are peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma agonists but decrease HCT-116 colon cancer cell survival through receptor-independent activation of early growth response-1 and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-activated gene-1.
This study suggested that a PPARgamma-Bcl-2 feedback loop may function to control the life-death continuum in colonic cells and that a deficiency in generation of PPARgamma ligands may precede the development of human colon cancer.
In conclusion, at our knowledge, our results are the first to show that the reduction of PPARγ levels contributes to WIN-induced colon carcinoma cell death by blocking the pro-survival autophagic response of cells.
We report here that PPAR-gamma ligands dramatically attenuate cytokine gene expression in colon cancer cell lines by inhibiting the activation of nuclear factor-kappaB via an IkappaB-alpha-dependent mechanism.
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, plays a role in adipocyte differentiation, type II diabetes, macrophage response to inflammation and is suggested to influence carcinogen-induced colon cancer.
In addition, FPLD3-associated PPARγ mutations consistently cause intra- and/or intermolecular defects; colon cancer-associated PPARγ mutations on the other hand may play a role in colon cancer onset and progression, but this is not due to their effects on the most well-studied functional characteristics of PPARγ.
Therefore, in current study, ceramide, COX-2, 15-deoxy prostaglandin J2(15-deoxy PGJ2), PPAR γ , and β -catenin were estimated to evaluate the effect of fish oil on lipid mediated and Wnt/ β -catenin signaling in colon carcinoma.
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma), a member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily, is involved in suppression of growth of several types of tumors such as liposarcoma, breast cancer, prostate cancer, and colon cancer, possibly through induction of cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis.
