Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR gamma) is expressed in neurons and glia, and its synthetic agonist, rosiglitazone (RSG), regulates inflammatory process and has neuroprotective effects against neurological disorders. In the present study, we examined the role of PPAR gamma in the hippocampal CA1 region (CA1) after transient cerebral ischemia and the neuroprotective effects of RSG on ischemic damage. RSG attenuated neuronal damage in the ischemic CA1, not showing perfect neuroprotection: the RSG appeared to delay neuronal death after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). PPAR gamma immunoreactivity and protein levels were increased after I/R, and most of PPAR gamma-immunoreactive cells colocalized with microglia, not astrocytes. In addition, RSG attenuated glial activation and increased IL-4 and IL-13 levels in the ischemic CAL These results indicate that PPAR gamma increases and expresses in microglia after I/R, and that RSG delays neuronal damage by interfering with glial activations and increases anti-inflammatory cytokines in response to ischemic damage.
