Popis: The study was designed to explore the effects of HS060098 on activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARα, γ and δ) and in the down-regulation of hyperlipidemia in golden hamster. Luciferase gene reporters of PPARα, PPARγ and PPARδ were constructed in HepG2 cells and the green fluorescent protein (GFP) was used as an internal reference. Transfected cells were then cultured with various concentrations of HS060098 for 24 h. The peroxisome proliferator-response element luciferase activity was determined by the dual-luciferase reporter gene assay system. To investigate the lipid-lowering effect of HS060098, hyperlipidemic golden hamsters fed by high-diet were administered orally with HS060098 through prophylactic and therapeutic approaches respectively. The levels of blood lipids such as total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and fat index in hamsters were evaluated. The results showed that HS060098 was a potent activator of PPARδ with a good selectivity and the median effective concentration (EC(50)) is 0.01 μmol·L(-1), while no obvious PPARα and PPARγ activation was observed. In the golden hamster, oral administration of HS060098 (5, 10, 20 mg·kg(-1)·d(-1)) for 2 weeks, led to a significant decrease the concentrations of plasma TC, TG, LDL-C and fat index (P0.05 or P0.01), whereas the contents of plasma HDL-C were increased significantly (P0.05 or P0.01). The data suggest that HS060098 is a novel PPARδ agonist with a significant activity in the prevention and therapy of hyperlipemia in golden hamster.
