Liver X receptors regulate cerebrospinal fluid production [PDF]
Molecular Psychiatry, 2015 Of the two isoforms of Liver X receptor (LXR), LXRβ has been shown to have major effects in the central nervous system (CNS) and on the regulation of aquaporins while LXRα has its most marked effects on cholesterol homeostasis. Both receptors have immunomodulatory functions. In LXRαβ knockout (ko) mice, the CNS phenotype is much more severe than in the

Immunotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma: the complex interface between inflammation, fibrosis, and the immune response. [PDF]
, 2019 Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide and confers a poor prognosis. Beyond standard systemic therapy with multikinase inhibitors, recent studies demonstrate the potential for robust and durable responses ...

Liver X Receptors Activation Attenuates Ischemia Reperfusion Injury of Liver Graft in Rats
Journal of Investigative Surgery, 2019 Purpose: Suppression of the Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4)-nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling was critical in protection against liver IRI. Previous studies revealed that Liver X receptors (LXRs) activation could antagonize TLR4-NF-κB signaling.

Inflammation at the blood-brain barrier: The role of liver X receptors
Neurobiology of Disease, 2017 The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is indispensable for the maintenance of brain homeostasis and proper neuronal functioning. Dysfunction of the BBB significantly contributes to the pathogenesis of neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases like stroke,

Regenerating Rat Liver: Correlations Between Estrogen Receptor Localization and Deoxyribonucleic Acid Synthesis [PDF]
, 1984 Estrogen receptor activity was quantitated in the cytosol and nucleus of normal rat liver and in regenerating rat liver at several time intervals after 75% hepatectomy. Cytosolic estradiol binding in regenerating liver decreases at 12, 24, and 48 h after

Toll-like receptor-mediated signaling cascade as a regulator of the inflammation network during alcoholic liver disease [PDF]
, 2014 Chronic abuse of alcohol leads to various histological abnormalities in the liver. These are conditions collectively known as alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Currently, ALD is considered to be one of the major causes of death worldwide.

Brain cholesterol in normal and pathological aging
Oléagineux, Corps gras, Lipides, 2011 Aberrations in cerebral cholesterol homeostasis can lead to severe neurological diseases. Recent findings strengthen the link between brain cholesterol metabolism and factors involved in synaptic plasticity, a process essential for learning and memory ...

Liver X Receptors in Atherosclerosis and Inflammation [PDF]
Circulation Research, 2011 Liver X receptors (LXRs) are cholesterol-sensing nuclear receptors that are not only key regulators of lipid metabolism and transport but also suppress inflammatory signaling in macrophages through a unique mechanism of transrepression. In this brief review, we focus on the regulatory actions of LXR primarily in macrophages responding to a ...
