RXRA gene variations influence Alzheimer's disease risk and cholesterol metabolism.

Journal of cellular and molecular medicine - 1 Mar 2009

Abstract excerpt

Cholesterol metabolism is altered in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The nuclear hormone receptor Retinoic X Receptor a (RXRa) is a member of the nuclear ligand-activated transcription factor family. RXRs are key regulators of cholesterol synthesis and thus cholesterol metabolism. We performed a system...
