EEPD1 Is a Novel LXR Target Gene in Macrophages Which Regulates ABCA1 Abundance and Cholesterol Efflux

The sterol-responsive nuclear receptors, liver X receptors α (LXRα, ) and β (LXRβ, ), are key determinants of cellular cholesterol homeostasis. LXRs are activated under conditions of high cellular sterol load and induce expression of the cholesterol efflux transporters and to promote efflux of exces...
