To study the functional role of retinoid X receptor alpha (RXRalpha) in hepatocytes, hepatocyte RXRalpha-deficient mice have been established. Characterization has been performed on male mice. In this paper, we show that the expression of CYP450 genes is differentially expressed in male and female hepatocyte RXRalpha-deficient mice; male mice have reduced expression of cytochrome P450 (CYP) CYP4A, CYP3A, and...
