Both peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma and
hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) play important roles in lipid
metabolism and insulin sensitivity. We demonstrate that expression of the
HSL gene is up-regulated by PPAR gamma and PPAR gamma agonists
(rosiglitazone and pioglitazone) in the cultured hepatic cells and
differentiating preadipocytes. Rosiglitazone treatment also results in
up-regulation of the HSL gene in liver and skeleton muscle from an
experimental obese rat model, accompanied by the decreased triglyceride
content in these tissues. The proximal promoter (-87 bp of the human
HSL gene) was found to be essential for PPAR gamma-mediated
transactivating activity. This important promoter region contains two
GC-boxes and binds the transcription factor specificity protein-1 (Sp1)
but not PPAR gamma. The Sp1-promoter binding activity can be endogenously
enhanced by PPAR gamma and rosiglitazone, as demonstrated by analysis of
EMSA and chromatin immunoprecipitation assay. Mutations in the GC-box
sequences reduce the promoter binding activity of Sp1 and the
transactivating activity of PPAR gamma. In addition, mithramycin A, the
specific inhibitor for Sp1-DNA binding activity, abolishes the PPAR
gamma-mediated up-regulation of HSL. These results indicate that PPAR
gamma positively regulates the HSL gene expression, and up-regulation of
HSL by PPAR gamma requires the involvement of Sp1. Taken together, this
study suggests that HSL may be a newly identified PPAR gamma target
gene, and up-regulation of HSL may be an important mechanism involved in
action of PPAR gamma agonists in type 2 diabetes.
