50 Hardcover QH603 The aims of this volume are to describe a range of molecular, structural, and cell biological protocols currently used to investigate the structure-function of nuclear receptors (a superfamily of ligand- activated transcription factors that act principally to directly control patterns of gene expression) and to discuss experimental approaches that may lead to new therapeutic strategies for treating nuclear receptor-associated diseases.
Takeuchi added different combinations of transcription factors to mouse cells, of which these two appeared key in pushing cells into heart cells, however, they were not enough.
In invertebrate models for example, forkhead transcription factor family O (FOXO) transcription factors in this pathway regulate the rate of aging in response to dietary cues, and in vertebrates, obesity and age-induced deficits in the same pathway are thought to contribute to dysregulation of hepatic gluconeogenesis through genes such as phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK).
