Depletion of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma ) represents one of the key molecular changes that underlie transdifferentiation (activation) of hepatic stellate cells (HSC) in the genesis of liver fibrosis (Miyahara T, et al. J Biol Chem 275: 35715-22; Hazra S, et al. J. Biol Chem 279:11392-401, 2004). In support of this notion, treatment with PPARgamma ligands or ectopic expression of PPARgamma suppresses HSC activation markers, most notably expression of alpha 1(I) procollagen. However, the mechanisms underlying this anti-fibrotic effect are largely unknown. The present study utilized deletion-reporter gene constructs of proximal 2.2kb alpha 1(I) procollagen promoter to demonstrate that a region proximal to –133bp is where PPARgamma exerts its inhibitory effect. Within this region, two DNase footprints with overlapping NF1 and Sp1 sites exist. NF-I independently stimulates the promoter activity and synergistically promotes Sp1-induced activity. PPARgamma inhibits NF-I binding to the most proximal footprint (-97/-85bp) and inhibits its transactivity. The former effect is mediated by PPARgamma ’s ability to inhibit p300-facilitated NF1 binding to DNA as demonstrated by chromatin immunoprecipitation assay.
