Journal ArticleDOI

Liver X receptors as integrators of metabolic and inflammatory signaling.

TL;DR: The liver X receptors are nuclear receptors that play central roles in the transcriptional control of lipid metabolism and are particularly attractive targets for intervention in human metabolic disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

LXR regulates cholesterol uptake through Idol-dependent ubiquitination of the LDL receptor.

TL;DR: It is shown that the sterol-responsive nuclear liver X receptor (LXR) helps maintain cholesterol homeostasis, not only through promotion of cholesterol efflux but also through suppression of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) uptake.
Journal ArticleDOI

LXR Signaling Couples Sterol Metabolism to Proliferation in the Acquired Immune Response

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that cellular cholesterol levels in dividing T cells are maintained in part through reciprocal regulation of the LXR and SREBP transcriptional programs, and implicate LXR signaling in a metabolic checkpoint that modulates cell proliferation and immunity.
