Enhancement of CYP3A4 activity in Hep G2 cells by lentiviral transfection of hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 alpha. [PDF]
Human hepatoma cell lines are commonly used as alternatives to primary hepatocytes for the study of drug metabolism in vitro. However, the phase I cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme activities in these cell lines occur at a much lower level than their ...

Gliclazide challenge testing as an alternative diagnostic tool for hepatocyte nuclear factor-1-alpha maturity onset diabetes of the young [PDF]
Background: Hepatocyte nuclear factor-1-alpha monogenic diabetes (HNF1-alpha DM), formerly known as maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 3 (MODY 3), is often misdiagnosed as type 1 or type 2 diabetes. In regions where genetic testing is unavailable,

Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha influences pancreatic cancer growth and metastasis. [PDF]
AbstractHepatocyte nuclear factor 1 homeobox alpha (HNF1α) is a transcription factor involved in endodermal organogenesis and pancreatic precursor cell differentiation and development. Earlier studies have reported a role for HNF1α in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) but it is controversial.

Identification of a novel hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 alpha (HNF1A) variant in maturity onset diabetes of the young type 3 (HNF1A-MODY) [PDF]
We identified an adolescent young woman with new-onset diabetes. Due to suspicious family history, she underwent genetic testing for common monogenic diabetes (MODY) genes.

Diffuse glomerular nodular lesions in diabetic pigs carrying a dominant-negative mutant hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-alpha, an inheritant diabetic gene in humans. [PDF]
Glomerular nodular lesions, known as Kimmelstiel-Wilson nodules, are a pathological hallmark of progressive human diabetic nephropathy. We have induced severe diabetes in pigs carrying a dominant-negative mutant hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-alpha (HNF1α ...

Liver receptor homolog-1 (NR5A2) orchestrates hepatic inflammation and TNF-induced cell death
Summary: The nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog-1 (LRH-1) has been shown to promote apoptosis resistance in various tissues and disease contexts; however, its role in liver cell death remains unexplored.
