| Abstract | 15-Deoxy-$^{Δ12,14}$-prostaglandin J$_{2}$ (15d-PGJ$_{2}$) is a naturally occurring cyclopentenone metabolite of prostaglandin D$_{2}$ (PGD$_{2}$) and is known as a specific potent ligand for the peroxisome proliferators activator receptor-γ (PPARγ). 15d-PGJ$_{2}$ inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis in a number of different cancer cells. However, the underlying mechanism by which 15d-PGJ$_{2}$ induces cell death remains to be defined. The present study was undertaken to determine the effect of 15d-PGJ$_{2}$ on cell death in A172 human glioma cells. 15d-PGJ$_{2}$ caused reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. 15d-PGJ$_{2}$-induced ROS production and cell death were prevented by the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine. Activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) was not observed in cells treated with 15d-PGJ$_{2 }$and inhibitors of MAPK subfamilies also were not effective in preventing 15d-PGJ$_{2}$-induced cell death. 15d-PGJ$_{2}$ treatment caused mitochondrial dysfunction, as evidenced by depolarization of mitochondrial membrane potential. 15d-PGJ$_{2}$ induced caspase activation at 24 h of treatment, but the 15d-PGJ$_{2}$-induced cell death was not prevented by caspase inhibitors. The antiapoptotic protein XIAP levels and release of apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) into the cytosol were not altered by 15d-PGJ$_{2}$ treatment. Taken together, these findings indicate that 15d-PGJ$_{2}$ triggers cell death through a caspase-independent mechanism and ROS production and disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential play an important role in the 15d-PGJ$_{2}$-induced cell death in A172 human glioma cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
