It is well known that high plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1)level and activity, as the risk factors for atherosclerosis, are obviously associated with hypertriglyceridemia. The mechanism of the association remains imprecise. Feeding on fatty acids up-regulate level of PAI-1 and fatty acids can acivate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors(PPARs). Therefore we hypothesized that PPARs might play a role in regulating gene transcription involved in linking hypertriglyceridemia and high PAI-1 levels and PAI-1 might be a PPARs target gene. We investigated the mechanism via diverse techniques of cell biology and molecular biology in human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs) and human hepatoblastome (HepG2)cells in vitro. Both in cultured HUVECs and HepG2 cells, polyunsaturated fatty acids augnent the expression of PAI-1 at mRNA and protein levels in a dose-dependent manner. However, the mRNA expressions of PPARs with their activators（e.g.fatty acids and prostaglandin J2） in both HUVECs and HepG2 cells were not changed compared with controls. We observed for the first time that PAI-1 transcriptional activity was signifivantly enhanced by PPARαplasmid co-transfection to ECV304 and polyunsaturated fatty acids enhanced the effects,but no change in PAI-1 transcriptional activity was observed when the expression of PPARγwas increased.Our results showed for the first time internationlly that hypertriglyceridemia affects the level of PAI-1 and PPARαinvolves in the regulating process at least in part，which is one of the molecular mechanism that hypertriglyceridemia affects the activity of fibrinolysis system clinically.
