ABSTRACT

Rosiglitazone is a synthetic peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)γ agonist widely used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Recent studies have demonstrated that rosiglitazone displays anti-inflammatory effects. The present study aimed to investigate whether rosiglitazone alleviates decreases in RAW264.7 cell viability resulting from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation, as well as exploring the underlying mechanism. A macrophage inflammatory injury model was established by treating RAW264.7 cells with 100 ng/ml LPS. Cells were divided into LPS and rosiglitazone groups with different concentrations. Cell viability was assessed by performing an MTT assay. The expression of inflammatory cytokines was detected by conducting enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. Nitric oxidesecretion was assessed using the Griess reagent system. The expression levels of key nuclear factor-κB pathway-associated proteins were detected via western blotting. Rosiglitazone alleviated LPS-induced decrease in RAW264.7 cell viability and inhibited inflammatory cytokine expression in a concentration-dependent manner. Rosiglitazone significantly inhibited LPS-induced upregulation of p65 phosphorylation levels and downregulated IκBα expression levels. However, rosiglitazone-mediated inhibitory effects were reversed by PPARγ knockdown. The results of the present study demonstrated that rosiglitazone significantly inhibited LPS-induced inflammatory responses in RAW264.7 macrophage cells, which was dependent on PPARγ activation and NF-κB suppression.
