ABSTRACT: Reduced bone morphogenetic protein receptor (BMPR)2 expression in patients with pulmonary arterial (PA) hypertension (PAH), can impair PA endothelial cell (EC) function. We now characterize, in human PAECs, a novel BMPR2-mediated transcriptionally active complex between peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) gamma and beta-catenin (BC), and show that disruption of this complex impairs BMP mediated HPAEC survival. Using whole genome wide ChIP-Chip promoter analysis we delineate PPARG-BC dependent transcription of target genes that include apelin. Comparison of ppar-gamma and beta-catenin occupancy on promoter regions from human pulmonary artery endothelial cells after either treatment with BMP2 or control. A total of 8 samples were created using NimbleGen human HG18 promoter arrays.
