Journal ArticleDOI

Bisphenol A interacts with the estrogen receptor α in a distinct manner from estradiol

TL;DR: This article investigated the effect of BPA on the immature rat uterus and found that BPA antagonized the E2 stimulatory effects on both peroxidase activity and PR levels but did not inhibit E2-induced increases of uterine weight.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of macrophage liver X receptors as inhibitors of atherosclerosis

TL;DR: Elimination of LXR activity in bone marrow-derived cells mimics many aspects of Tangier disease, a human high density lipoprotein deficiency, including aberrant regulation of cholesterol transporter expression, lipid accumulation in macrophages, splenomegaly, and increased atherosclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The nuclear corepressors NCoR and SMRT are key regulators of both ligand- and 8-bromo-cyclic AMP-dependent transcriptional activity of the human progesterone receptor

TL;DR: It is proposed that 8-bromo-cAMP-mediated potentiation of PR transcriptional activity is due, at least in part, to a disruption of the interaction between PR and the corepressors NCoR and SMRT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Promoter-Specific Roles for Liver X Receptor/Corepressor Complexes in the Regulation of ABCA1 and SREBP1 Gene Expression

TL;DR: It is reported that high-density-lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels are increased in LXR-deficient mice, suggesting that derepression of ABCA1 and possibly other LXR target genes in selected tissues is sufficient to result in enhanced HDL biogenesis at the whole-body level.
