Furthermore, a quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to determine the PPAR\u03b3 mRNA-expression in both groups. We used a fused and a non-fused BeWo cell culture model for the stimulation with arachidonic acid and 15-Deoxy-\u0394<jats:sup>12,14<\/jats:sup>-prostaglandin J<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> (15d-PGJ2).

Furthermore, PPAR\u03b3 mRNA-expression was reduced in GDM placentas. Stimulation of BeWo cells with arachidonic acid and 15d-PGJ2 caused a downregulation of PPAR\u03b3 expression.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold> As PPAR\u03b3 is down regulated by arachidonic acid and 15d-PGJ2, the reduced PPAR\u03b3 expression in GDM placentas may be due to an altered concentration of fatty acid derivates.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1515\/jpm-2013-0039","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,4]],"date-time":"2013-11-04T20:30:36Z","timestamp":1383597036000},"page":"179-187","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR\u03b3) is down regulated in trophoblast cells of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and in trophoblast tumour cells BeWo <i>in vitro<\/i> after stimulation with PPAR\u03b3 agonists"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"Julia","family":"Knabl","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Campus Innenstadt, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rebecca","family":"H\u00fcttenbrenner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Campus Innenstadt, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stefan","family":"Hutter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Campus Innenstadt, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"G\u00fcnthner-Biller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Campus Innenstadt, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Vrekoussis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Campus Innenstadt, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Katrin","family":"Karl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Campus Innenstadt, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Klaus","family":"Friese","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Franz","family":"Kainer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Campus Innenstadt, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Udo","family":"Jeschke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Campus Innenstadt, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"374","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,5]]},"container-title":["Journal of Perinatal Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.degruyter.com\/document\/doi\/10.1515\/jpm-2013-0039\/xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.degruyter.com\/document\/doi\/10.1515\/jpm-2013-0039\/pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,14]],"date-time":"2023-03-14T03:25:32Z","timestamp":1678764332000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.degruyter.com\/document\/doi\/10.1515\/jpm-2013-0039\/html"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,5]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,21]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1515\/jpm-2013-0039"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1515\/jpm-2013-0039","relation":{},"ISSN":["1619-3997","0300-5577"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1619-3997","type":"electronic"},{"value":"0300-5577","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,5]]}}}
