PPARdelta is an APC-regulated target of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

ABSTRACT: PPARB was identified as a target of APC through the analysis of global gene expression profiles in human colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. PPARdelta expression was elevated in CRCs and repressed by APC in CRC cells. This repression was mediated by beta-catenin/Tcf-4-responsive elements in the PPARdelta promotor. The ability of PPARs to bind eicosanoids suggested that PPARdelta might be a target of chemopreventive non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Reporters containing PPARdelta-responsive elements were repressed by the NSAID sulindac. Furthermore, sulindac was able to disrupt the ability of PPARdelta to bind its recognition sequences. These findings suggest that NSAIDs inhibit tumorigenesis through inhibition of PPARdelta, the gene for which is normally regulated by APC.

Project description:Background & aimsNonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been suggested to protect against esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). This study examined the effect of NSAIDs on the risk of developing Barrett's esophagus (BE), the precursor lesion to EAC.MethodsWe conducted a case-control study among eligible patients scheduled for either elective esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) or recruited from primary care clinics to undergo a study EGD. We compared 323 patients with BE (296 nondysplastic and 27 dysplastic) with 2 separate control groups: 1347 patients from the elective EGD group (endoscopy controls) and 502 patients from the primary care group (primary care controls) with no endoscopic or histopathologic BE. Use of aspirin products and 23 nonaspirin NSAIDs was ascertained from detailed, self-reported questionnaires. We calculated odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using multivariable logistic regression models.ResultsThere were no significant differences in self-reported NSAID use between all BE cases and all controls (58.2% vs 54.6%; P = .33); this was seen for aspirin products (43.0% vs 37.4%; P = .08) and nonaspirin NSAIDs (7.7% vs 8.9%; P = .46). These findings persisted in the multivariable model for any NSAIDs (adjusted OR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.75-1.28), aspirin (adjusted OR, 1.16; 95% CI, 0.90-1.51), and nonaspirin NSAIDs (adjusted OR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.55-1.39). Use of a combination of aspirin and nonaspirin NSAIDs was reported in 7.4% of cases and 8.3% of controls, and a nonsignificant inverse association with BE was seen (adjusted OR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.44-1.11). There was no significant association between BE and daily NSAID use (adjusted OR, 1.03; 95% CI, 0.78-1.37). Similar findings were observed for comparisons involving nondysplastic or dysplastic BE cases, and endoscopy or primary care control groups separately or combined.ConclusionsThe use of NSAIDs was not associated with a reduced risk of BE. It is likely that the protective mechanism of NSAIDs on EAC occurs subsequent to the development of BE.
