Liver X Receptor Beta (LXR beta) also known as NR1H2 is a nuclear receptor that functions as a transcription factor. It has a molecular mass of approximately 51 kDa. This receptor is primarily expressed in tissues like liver kidney adipose tissue and macrophages. LXR beta regulates genes involved in cholesterol homeostasis lipid metabolism and inflammation. Additionally LXR beta forms heterodimers with Retinoid X Receptors (RXRs) to regulate gene expression in response to ligands.
Biological function summary

The protein plays a central role in the maintenance of lipid homeostasis and modulation of inflammatory responses. LXR beta acts within a complex system that also involves other nuclear receptors and co-regulators to effectively control gene transcription. Through its activity LXR beta impacts cholesterol efflux fatty acid synthesis and inflammatory gene expression. It helps preserve cellular lipid balance a critical factor for normal cellular function and overall organism health.

Pathways

LXR beta plays a significant role in the cholesterol metabolism and lipid homeostasis pathways. It activates the transcription of genes like ABCA1 and ABCG1 important for cholesterol efflux in macrophages and other cell types. LXR beta interacts closely with proteins such as SREBP-1c (Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Protein 1c) and RXR which are integral to lipid metabolism pathways. By modulating these pathways LXR beta contributes to reverse cholesterol transport reducing cholesterol overload in cells.

LXR beta has connections to atherosclerosis and metabolic syndrome. Alterations in LXR beta function can lead to impaired cholesterol efflux and excessive lipid accumulation contributing to atherosclerosis. In metabolic syndrome irregularities in LXR beta's regulation of lipid metabolism may exacerbate the disorder's associated risks. Its interaction with proteins like GM-CSF (Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor) further highlights the target's potential role in inflammatory conditions linked to these diseases.

Target data

Nuclear receptor that exhibits a ligand-dependent transcriptional activation activity (PubMed : 25661920). Binds preferentially to double-stranded oligonucleotide direct repeats having the consensus half-site sequence 5'-AGGTCA-3' and 4-nt spacing (DR-4). Regulates cholesterol uptake through MYLIP-dependent ubiquitination of LDLR, VLDLR and LRP8; DLDLR and LRP8. Interplays functionally with RORA for the regulation of genes involved in liver metabolism (By similarity). Induces LPCAT3-dependent phospholipid remodeling in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes of hepatocytes, driving SREBF1 processing and lipogenesis (By similarity). Via LPCAT3, triggers the incorporation of arachidonate into phosphatidylcholines of ER membranes, increasing membrane dynamics and enabling triacylglycerols transfer to nascent very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) particles (By similarity). Via LPCAT3 also counteracts lipid-induced ER stress response and inflammation, likely by modulating SRC kinase membrane compartmentalization and limiting the synthesis of lipid inflammatory mediators (By similarity). 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 (PubMed : 20159957).
