Abstract

Aim: The objective was to determine via high-throughput RNA sequencing the temporal effects of rosiglitazone (Avandia®) on the neonatal rat ventricular myocyte transcriptome.

Materials & methods: Neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) were exposed to rosiglitazone in vitro. Meta analyses utilized temporal comparisons of 0.5 h control versus 0.5 h treatment, 0.5 h treatment versus 24 h treatment and 24 h treatment versus 48 h treatment.

Results: Time dependent responses were observed. At 0.5 h, the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway was impacted. At 24 h endoplasmic reticulum activity and protein degradation were altered. At 48 h, oxytocin signaling was perturbed.

Conclusion: The effects of rosiglitazone occured early and increased in magnitude over time. A protective molecular response was triggered at 24 h and maintained until 48 h. In parallel, a response that can cause cardiac damage was activated. Our findings suggest that rosiglitazone has deleterious effects.
