Nr5a2 | Nuclear receptor subfamily 5 group A member 2; Nuclear receptor that acts as a key metabolic sensor by regulating the expression of genes involved in bile acid synthesis, cholesterol homeostasis and triglyceride synthesis. Together with the oxysterol receptors NR1H3/LXR-alpha and NR1H2/LXR-beta, acts as an essential transcriptional regulator of lipid metabolism. Plays an anti- inflammatory role during the hepatic acute phase response by acting as a corepressor: inhibits the hepatic acute phase response by preventing dissociation of the N-Cor corepressor complex. Key regulator of choles [...] (560 aa) | ||||
Cyp4f18 | Cytochrome P450 4F3; A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of the proinflammatory lipid mediator leukotriene B4 (LTB4). Hydroxylates at the omega-1 and omega-2 positions LTB4. This oxidation step leads to LTB4 inactivation, which is postulated to be a crucial part of the resolution of inflammation. Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR; NADPH-ferrihemoprotein reductase).
