报告提要：Nuclear receptors are ligand-activated transcriptional regulators controlling key aspects of hepatic physiology and pathophysiology. Nuclear receptors are involved in regulating lipid and bile acid homeostasis, drug metabolism, liver regeneration, fibrosis, and liver tumor formation. Therefore nuclear receptors appear to be attractive therapeutic targets for a broad range of liver diseases including cholestatic and fatty liver disease, drug hepatotoxicity, viral hepatitis, liver fibrosis, and cancer. This talk is focused on the function of a unique orphan nuclear receptor, namely, small heterodimer partner, in metabolic liver diseases, regulation of microRNA function and circadian clocks.
