Nutritional status is known to control female reproductive physiology. Many reproductive
pathologies such as anorexia nervosa, dystocia and preeclampsia, have been linked to …

Liver X receptor-α (LXRα) and LXRβ are ligand-activated transcription factors belonging to
the nuclear receptor superfamily. They have been identified as key players in cholesterol …

NR5A2 is a nuclear receptor which regulates the expression of genes involved in
cholesterol metabolism, pluripotency maintenance and cell differentiation. It has been …

Objective—Modification of lipoprotein metabolism by bile acids has been mainly explained
by activation of the farnesyl X receptor (FXR). The aim of the present study was to determine …

NR5A2 (Liver receptor homologue-1; LRH1) belongs to the four-member NR5A, or Ftz-F1,
subfamily V of nuclear receptors. Murine LRH1 was originally identified due to its sequence …

ABSTRACT Apolipoprotein A‐I (ApoA‐I) is the main anti‐atherogenic component of human
high‐density lipoproteins (HDL). ApoA‐I gene expression is regulated by several nuclear …

Pioglitazone, a hypoglycemic agent, has been shown to increase plasma HDL cholesterol,
but the mechanism is incompletely understood. We further investigated effects of …

Abstract Liver receptor homolog-1 (LRH-1) is an orphan nuclear receptor that is critical for
the growth and proliferation of cancer cells and other biological processes, including lipid …

α1-Fetoprotein transcription factor (FTF), also known as liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1) is
highly expressed in the liver and intestine, where it is implicated in the regulation of …

Background Statins decrease cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) levels, which have
been positively associated with hepatic lipid content as well as serum low density …
