Peroxisome proliferator activator receptor-
(PPAR
) is a nuclear receptor that controls the expression of several genes involved in metabolic homeostasis. We investigated the role of PPAR
during the inflammatory response in sepsis by the use of the PPAR
ligands, 15-deoxy-
12,14-PGJ2 (15d-PGJ2) and ciglitazone. Polymicrobial sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture in rats and was associated with hypotension, multiple organ failure, and 50% mortality. PPAR
expression was markedly reduced in lung and thoracic aorta after sepsis. Immunohistochemistry showed positive staining for nitrotyrosine and poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase in thoracic aortas. Plasma levels of TNF-
, IL-6, and IL-10 were increased. Elevated activity of myeloperoxidase was found in lung, colon, and liver, indicating a massive infiltration of neutrophils. These events were preceded by degradation of inhibitor
B
(I
B
), activation of I
B kinase complex, and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase and, subsequently, activation of NF-
B and AP-1 in the lung. In vivo treatment with ciglitazone or 15d-PGJ2 ameliorated hypotension and survival, blunted cytokine production, and reduced neutrophil infiltration in lung, colon, and liver. These beneficial effects of the PPAR
ligands were associated with the reduction of I
B kinase complex and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase activation and the reduction of NF-
B and AP-1 DNA binding in the lung. Furthermore, treatment with ciglitazone or 15d-PGJ2 up-regulated the expression of PPAR
in lung and thoracic aorta and abolished nitrotyrosine formation and poly(ADP-ribose) expression in aorta. Our data suggest that PPAR
ligands attenuate the inflammatory response in sepsis through regulation of the NF-
B and AP-1 pathways.
