Hepatocyte nuclear factor alpha (HNF1α), endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and hepatocyte apoptosis contribute to severe acute exacerbation (SAE) of liver injury. Here, we explore HNF1α–ER stress-hepatocyte apoptosis interaction in liver injury.

TFIIB-Directed Transcriptional Activation by the Orphan Nuclear Receptor Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 4 [PDF]
The orphan nuclear receptor hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 (HNF-4) is required for development and maintenance of the liver phenotype. HNF-4 activates several hepatocyte-specific genes, including the gene encoding apolipoprotein AI (apoAI), the major protein component of plasma high-density lipoprotein.

Tissue-Specific Regulation of Mouse Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 4 Expression [PDF]
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 (HNF-4) is a liver-enriched transcription factor and a member of the steroid hormone receptor superfamily. HNF-4 is required for the hepatoma-specific expression of HNF-1 alpha, another liver-enriched transcription factor, suggesting the early participation of HNF-4 in development.

Inhibition of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 transcriptional activity by the nuclear factor κB pathway [PDF]
HNF-4 (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4) is a key regulator of liver-specific gene expression in mammals. We have shown previously that the activity of the human APOC3 (apolipoprotein C-III) promoter is positively regulated by the anti-inflammatory cytokine TGFβ (transforming growth factor β) and its effectors Smad3 (similar to mothers against ...

Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 a (HNF4α): A perspective in cancer
HNF4α, a transcription factor, plays a vital role in regulating functional genes and biological processes. Its alternative splicing leads to various transcript variants encoding different isoforms. The spotlight has shifted towards the extensive discussion on tumors interplayed withHNF4α abnormalities.

Role of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-alpha in gastrointestinal and liver diseases. [PDF]
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-alpha (HNF4α) is a highly conserved member of nuclear receptor superfamily of ligand-dependent transcription factors that is expressed in liver and gastrointestinal organs (pancreas, stomach, and intestine). In liver, HNF4α is best known for its role as a master regulator of liver-specific gene expression and essential for ...

Mutations in transcription factor as rare causes of diabetes in pregnancy
MODY1 and MODY3 represent rare causes of diabetes in pregnancy. Establishing a molecular diagnosis of MODY1 or MODY3 during pregnancy may be important for minimizing risk of perinatal complications and for improving glycemic control after pregnancy.

The lncRNA HOTAIR transcription is controlled by HNF4α-induced chromatin topology modulation [PDF]
The expression of the long noncoding RNA HOTAIR (HOX Transcript Antisense Intergenic RNA) is largely deregulated in epithelial cancers and positively correlates with poor prognosis and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma and gastrointestinal cancers.
