Regulation of bile acid biosynthesis by hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α) regulates many genes that are preferentially expressed in liver. Mice lacking hepatic expression of HNF4α (HNF4αΔL) exhibited markedly increased levels of serum bile acids (BAs) compared with HNF4α-floxed (HNF4αF/F) mice. The expression of genes involved in the h...
