Downregulation of liver X receptor-α in mouse kidney and HK-2 proximal tubular cells by LPS and cytokines

The acute-phase response (APR) suppresses type II nuclear hormone receptors and alters the expression of their target genes involved in lipid metabolism in the liver and heart. Therefore, we examined the expression of liver X receptor/retinoid X receptor (LXR/RXR) and their target genes in kidney fr...
