Liver X Receptor Expression and Pentraxin 3 Production in Chronic Rhinosinusitis and Sinonasal Mucosal Fibroblast Cells
The long pentraxin 3 (PTX3) is a prototypic molecule for recognizing pathogens. Liver X receptors (LXRs), belonging to nuclear receptors (NRs) for cholesterol metabolism through heterodimerizing with other NRs, were recently reported to participate in inflammation. However, their roles in chronic rh...
