GSE234046 Single-cell RNA-sequencing of stromal vascular cells (SVCs) from the epididymal fat of obese mice.
Contributors : Theresa V Rohm ; Jerrold M OlefskySeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Mus musculusThe obesity epidemic continues to worsen worldwide, driving metabolic and chronic inflammatory diseases. Thiazolidinediones (TZDs), such as rosiglitazone (Rosi), are PPARy ligands that promote anti-inflammatory changes in adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) and cause insulin sensitization. We performed single-cell RNA-seuqnecing (scRNA-seq) to analyze the diversity and the phenotype of ATM subpopulations under Rosi and ATM-Exosome treatment. (Source: GEO: Gene Expression Omnibus)

PPAR γ Agonist Rosiglitazone and Antagonist GW9662: Antihypertensive Effects on Chronic Intermittent Hypoxia-Induced Hypertension in Rats
AbstractThe increased incidence of hypertension associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) presents significant physical, psychological, and economic challenges. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR γ) plays a role in both OSA and hypertension, yet the therapeutic potential of PPARγ agonists and antagonists for OSA-related hypertension remains unexplored. Therefore, we constructed a chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH)-induced hypertension rat model that mimics the pathogenesis of OSA-related h ypertension in humans. The model involved administering PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone (RSG), PPARγ antagonist...

Identification of TACSTD2 as novel therapeutic targets for cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury by multi-omics data integration
In this study, after initially processed individual omics datasets, we integrated multi-omics data to construct a ferroptosis network in the kidney, resulting in the identification of the key driverTACSTD2. In vitro and in vivo results showed thatTACSTD2 was notably upregulated in cisplatin-treated kidneys and BUMPT cells. Overexpression ofTACSTD2 accelerated ferroptosis, while its gene disruption decelerated ferroptosis, likely mediated by its potential downstream targetsHMGB1, IRF6, andLCN2. Drug prediction and molecular docking were further used to propose that drugs targetingTACSTD2 may have therapeutic potential in CP...

Hypermethylation of PPARG-encoding gene promoter mediates fine particulate matter-induced pulmonary fibrosis by regulating the HMGB1/NLRP3 axis
In conclusion, the HMGB1/NLRP3 signaling pathway was activated in pulmonary fibrosis triggered by PM2.5 through the hypermethylation of the PPARG-encoding gene promoter.PMID:38330871 | DOI:10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116068 (Source: Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety)
