Transactivation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor is differentially modulated by hepatocyte nuclear factor-4.

Abstract

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) stimulate the expression of several genes involved in lipid metabolism by binding to specific cis-acting peroxisome proliferator-responsive elements (PPREs) via cooper-ativity with retinoid X receptors. We demonstrate here that hepatocyte nuclear factor-4 (HNF-4), another member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily, bound with differing affinities to the PPREs from the genes encoding …
