Abstract

The PPARγ agonist Rosiglitazone exerts anti-hyperglycaemic effects by regulating the long-term expression of genes involved in metabolism, differentiation and inflammation. In the present study, Rosiglitazone treatment rapidly inhibited (5–30 min) the ER Ca2+ ATPase SERCA2b in monocyticcells (IC50 = 1.88 μM; p < 0.05), thereby disrupting short-term Ca2+homeostasis (resting [Ca2+]cyto = 121.2 ± 2.9% basal within 1 h; p < 0.05). However, extended Rosiglitazone treatment (72 h) induced dose-dependent SERCA2b up-regulation, and restored calciumhomeostasis, in monocyticcells (SERCA2b mRNA: 138.7 ± 5.7% basal (1 μM)/215.0 ± 30.9% basal (10 μM); resting [Ca2+]cyto = 97.3 ± 8.3% basal (10 μM)). As unfavourable cardiovascular outcomes, possibly related to disrupted cellular Ca2+homeostasis, have been linked to Rosiglitazone, this effect may be of clinical interest. In contrast, in PPRE-luciferase reporter-gene assays, Rosiglitazone induced non-dose-dependent PPARγ-dependent effects (1 μM: 152.5 ± 4.9% basal; 10 μM: 136.1 ± 5.1% basal (p < 0.05 for 1 μM vs. 10 μM)). Thus, we conclude that Rosiglitazone can exert PPARγ-independent non-genomic effects, such as the SERCA2b inhibition seen here, but that long-term Rosiglitazone treatment did not perturb resting [Ca]cyto in this study.
