Ligands activation of RXR modulate host antivarl response. We used microarray to determine if 9cRA could regulate the antiviral gene expression in LPS- and polyI:C triggered RAW264.7 cells.

View SamplesProlonged cold exposure stimulates the recruitment of beige adipocytes within white adipose tissue. Beige adipocytes depend on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation to drive thermogenesis. The transcriptional coregulator TLE3 inhibits mitochondrial and metabolic gene expression in beige adipocytes. Overall design: mRNA profiles of iWAT immortalized preadipocytes, differentiated in culture, and knocking out TLE3 after differentiation, were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 2500.
Loss of TLE3 promotes the mitochondrial program in beige adipocytes and improves glucose metabolism.

View SamplesLoss of functional -cell mass is a hallmark of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, and methods for restoring these cells are needed. Nkx6.1 induces -cell proliferation, but the pathway by which Nkx6.1 activates -cell expansion has not been defined. Here we demonstrate that Nkx6.1 induces expression of the Nr4a1 and Nr4a3 orphan nuclear receptors, and that these factors are both necessary and sufficient for Nkx6.1-mediated -cell proliferation. Overexpression of the Nr4a receptors results in increased expression of key cell cycle inducers E2F1 and cyclin E1. Furthermore, Nr4a receptors induce components of the anaphase-promoting complex, including Ube2c.

View SamplesLoss of functional -cell mass is a hallmark of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, and methods for restoring these cells are needed. We have previously reported that overexpression of the homeodomain transcription factor Nkx6.1 in rat pancreatic islets induces -cell proliferation and enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, but the pathway by which Nkx6.1 activates -cell expansion has not been defined. Here we demonstrate that Nkx6.1 induces expression of the Nr4a1 and Nr4a3 orphan nuclear receptors, and that these factors are both necessary and sufficient for Nkx6.1-mediated -cell proliferation. Consistent with this finding, global knockout of Nr4a1 results in a decrease in -cell area in neonatal and young mice. Overexpression of Nkx6.1 and the Nr4a receptors results in increased expression of key cell cycle inducers E2F1 and cyclin E1. Furthermore, Nkx6.1 and Nr4a receptors induce components of the anaphase-promoting complex, including Ube2c, resulting in degradation of the cell cycle inhibitor p21CIP1. These studies identify a new bipartite pathway for activation of -cell proliferation, suggesting several new targets for expansion of functional -cell mass.

View SamplesThe total abundance of phosphatidylcholine (PC) is known to influence lipoprotein production. However, the role of specific phospholipid species in lipid transport has been difficult to assess due to an inability to selectively manipulate membrane composition in vivo. Here we show that the LXR-regulated phospholipid remodeling enzyme lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 3 (Lpcat3) is a critical determinant of membrane phospholipid composition and lipoprotein production. Mice lacking Lpcat3 in the liver show defects in lipoprotein production.
Lpcat3-dependent production of arachidonoyl phospholipids is a key determinant of triglyceride secretion.
