Abstract excerpt
Thyroid hormone (T3) and peroxisome proliferators have overlapping metabolic effects in the maintenance of lipid homeostasis. Their actions are mediated by their respective receptors: thyroid hormone receptors (TR) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR). We recently found that a dominantly negative TRbeta mutant (PV) that causes a genetic disease, resistance to thyroid hormone, acts to repress the...
