The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor
is a ligand-activated
transcription factor that plays an important role in the regulation of
lipid homeostasis. PPAR
mediates the effects of fibrates, which are
potent hypolipidemic drugs, on gene expression. To better understand
the biological effects of fibrates and PPAR
, we searched for genes
regulated by PPAR
using oligonucleotide microarray and subtractive
hybridization. By comparing liver RNA from wild-type and PPAR
null
mice, it was found that PPAR
decreases the mRNA expression of
enzymes involved in the metabolism of amino acids. Further analysis by
Northern blot revealed that PPAR
influences the expression of
several genes involved in trans- and deamination of amino acids, and
urea synthesis. Direct activation of PPAR
using the synthetic
PPAR
ligand WY14643 decreased mRNA levels of these genes, suggesting
that PPAR
is directly implicated in the regulation of their
expression. Consistent with these data, plasma urea concentrations are
modulated by PPAR
in vivo. It is concluded that in addition to
oxidation of fatty acids, PPAR
also regulates metabolism of amino
acids in liver, indicating that PPAR
is a key controller of
intermediary metabolism during fasting.Kersten, S., Mandard, S.,
