摘要

Several contaminants detected in aquatic ecosystems are agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs). Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors interact with the retinoid X receptor (RXR) to activate the transcription of genes that control a variety of physiological functions. We cloned and sequenced partial cDNA fragments of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) PPARa and PPARβ from rainbow trout (rt) gill-W1 cells, a cell line derived from rainbow trout gills; predicted amino acid identities are 77% and 82% compared with their respective human homologs and 83 to 88% and 91 to 98% identical to fish homologs. A reporter gene assay was developed by transfecting rt-gill-W1 cells with a reporter gene construct containing the peroxisome proliferator response element (PPRE) of the rat liver 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase B (TB) gene, which drives luciferase expression. Agonists of both PPARa (WY14,643 and gemfibrozil) and PPARβ (bezafibrate) induced luciferase activity, while rosiglitazone, a PPARγ agonist, was not effective. The fibrate drug, bezafibrate increased luciferase activity in a dose-dependent manner, but addition of 50 nM 9-cis-retinoic acid to the transfected rt-gill-W1 cell culture maximized the sensitivity of the assay so that bezafibrate could be detected at concentrations as low as 6 nM. Extracts from treated domestic wastewater containing fibrate drugs induced luciferase activity in the transfected gill cells. This in vitro reporter gene assay shows promise as a rapid and sensitive technique for screening environmental samples for PPAR-active substances.
