PPAR-gamma/RXR heterodimers play a key regulatory role in murine placental development. We report here that PPAR-gamma and RXR-alpha are highly expressed in cultured primary extravillous cytotrophoblasts (EVCT) isolated from human first-trimester placenta. ...
Multiprotein bridging factor (MBF-1) is a cofactor that was first described for its capacity to modulate the activity of fushi tarazu factor 1, a nuclear receptor originally implicated in Drosophila development. Recently, it has been shown that human MBF-1 ...
The isoprenoids farnesol and juvenile hormone III (JH), metabolites of the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway, have been shown to stimulate fetal epidermal development in rodents. In this study we determined whether this effect might be attributed to a direc ...
The nuclear peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) activates the transcription of multiple genes involved in intra- and extracellular lipid metabolism. Several cofactors are crucial for the stimulation or the silencing of nuclear rece ...
The small heterodimer partner SHP (NR0B2) is an unusual nuclear receptor that lacks the typical DNA binding domain common to most nuclear receptors. SHP has been reported to act as a corepressor for several nuclear receptors, but its exact mechanism of act ...
Sterols and cholesterol in particular are lipids that have been studied exhaustively in view of their vital role in diverse cellular functions. Recently, it has been recognized that cholesterol is not only an essential component for the formation of membra ...
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) quickly evolved over the last decade from a new orphan receptor to one of the best characterized nuclear receptors. This fast pace in PPARgamma research was triggered by two main discoveries. ...
We show that mice expressing retinoid X receptor beta (RXRbeta) impaired in its transcriptional activation function AF-2 (Rxrb(af20) mutation) do not display the spermatid release defects observed in RXRbeta-null mutants, indicating that the role of RXRbet ...
The authors present here a novel approach to induce protein dimerization in living cells through covalent labeling of fusion proteins with ligands which are interacting with other proteins. The covalent labeling is based on the reaction of the DNA repair p ...
The catabolism of cholesterol into bile acids is regulated by oxysterols and bile acids, which induce or repress transcription of the pathway's rate-limiting enzyme cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A1). The nuclear receptor LXRalpha binds oxysterols and ...
