Nuclear Receptors, RXR, and the Big Bang
Open accessAbstract
Isolation of genes encoding the receptors for steroids, retinoids, vitamin D, and thyroid hormone and their structural and functional analysis revealed an evolutionarily conserved template for nuclear hormone receptors. This discovery sparked identification of numerous genes encoding related proteins, termed orphan receptors. Characterization of these orphan receptors and, in particular, of the retinoid X receptor (RXR) positioned nuclear receptors at the epicenter of the "Big Bang" of molecular endocrinology. This Review provides a personal perspective on nuclear receptors and explores their integrated and coordinated signaling networks that are essential for multicellular life, highlighting the RXR heterodimer and its associated ligands and transcriptional mechanism.

LXRs (LXRβ and LXRα) are nuclear hormone receptor transcription factors that drive transcriptional activation of Apoe, as well as other genes involved in cholesterol, fatty acid, and glucose metabolism.
“Liver-X receptors (LXRβ and LXRα) are members of the nuclear hormone receptor family of transcription factors that drive transcriptional activation of Apoe, as well as other genes involved in cholesterol, fatty acid, and glucose metabolism”
From LXR/ApoE Activation Restricts Innate Immune Suppression in Cancer (2018) · cites this paper as Evans and Mangelsdorf, 2014
The “What’s My Ligand?” section identifies LXRs as nuclear receptors involved in sterol homeostasis, and “Engaging the Energy Vector” says LXR activation promotes lipogenesis and up-regulates a gene network for cholesterol removal. Our copy does not identify Apoe as an LXR target or say that LXRs activate genes involved in glucose metabolism; the passages have no page numbers. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
