Transcriptional Regulation of Apolipoprotein C-III Gene Expression by the Orphan Nuclear Receptor RORα
1 Jan 2001
Abstract excerpt
Triglyceride-rich remnant lipoproteins are considered as major risk factors contributing to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Because apolipoprotein (apo) C-III is a major determinant of plasma triglyceride and remnant lipoprotein metabolism, it is important to understand how the expression of this gene is regulated. In the present study, we identified the orphan nuclear receptor RORalpha1 as a regulator of...
