Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors play an important role in the differentiation of different cell lines. In this study we demonstrate that PPAR-alpha ligands (clofibrate and ciprofibrate) and PPAR-gamma ligands (troglitazone and 15d-prostaglandin J2) inhibit growth and induce monocytic differentiation in HL-60 cells, whereas only PPAR-gamma ligands inhibit growth of U937 cells. Differentiation was demonstrated by the analysis of surface antigen expression CD11b and CD14, and by the characteristic morphological changes. PPAR-gamma ligands are more effective than PPAR-alpha ligands in the inhibition of cell growth and in the induction of differentiation. The physiological product of lipid peroxidation, 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), which alone induces granulocytic-like differentiation of HL-60 cells, potentiates the monocytic differentiation induced by ciprofibrate, troglitazone, and 15d-prostaglandin J2. The same HNE treatment significantly inhibits U937 cell growth and potentiates the inhibition of cell growth in PPAR-gamma ligand-treated cells. However, HNE does not induce a significant number of CD14-positive U937 cells. HNE causes a great increase of PPAR-gamma expression in both HL-60 and U937 cells, whereas it does not modify the PPAR-alpha expression. This observation may account for the high synergistic effect displayed by HNE and PPAR-gamma ligands in the inhibition of cell growth and differentiation induction. These results represent the first evidence of the involvement of a product of lipid peroxidation in the modulation of PPAR ligand activity and suggest a relationship between HNE and PPAR ligand pathways in leukemic cell growth and differentiation.

Abstract
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors play an important role in the differentiation of different cell lines. In this study we demonstrate that PPAR-alpha ligands (clofibrate and ciprofibrate) and PPAR-gamma ligands (troglitazone and 15d-prostaglandin J2) inhibit growth and induce monocytic differentiation in HL-60 cells, whereas only PPAR-gamma ligands inhibit growth of U937 cells. Differentiation was demonstrated by the analysis of surface antigen expression CD11b and CD14, and by the characteristic morphological changes. PPAR-gamma ligands are more effective than PPAR-alpha ligands in the inhibition of cell growth and in the induction of differentiation. The physiological product of lipid peroxidation, 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), which alone induces granulocytic-like differentiation of HL-60 cells, potentiates the monocytic differentiation induced by ciprofibrate, troglitazone, and 15d-prostaglandin J2. The same HNE treatment significantly inhibits U937 cell growth and potentiates the inhibition of cell growth in PPAR-gamma ligand-treated cells. However, HNE does not induce a significant number of CD14-positive U937 cells. HNE causes a great increase of PPAR-gamma expression in both HL-60 and U937 cells, whereas it does not modify the PPAR-alpha expression. This observation may account for the high synergistic effect displayed by HNE and PPAR-gamma ligands in the inhibition of cell growth and differentiation induction. These results represent the first evidence of the involvement of a product of lipid peroxidation in the modulation of PPAR ligand activity and suggest a relationship between HNE and PPAR ligand pathways in leukemic cell growth and differentiation.
