It functions as a transcription factor regulating the expression of genes involved in bile acid lipid and glucose homeostasis. NR1H4 is expressed mainly in the liver intestines kidneys and adrenal glands where it plays a critical role in maintaining metabolic balance. By binding bile acids NR1H4 activates allowing it to bind to DNA and modulate gene expression.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nNR1H4 influences the body's metabolism by controlling genes responsible for bile acid synthesis conjugation and transport. It forms a heterodimer with Retinoid X Receptor (RXR) to regulate these processes. As an important regulator NR1H4 controls the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids reducing toxicity by lowering hepatic bile acid production. Additionally it influences lipid and glucose metabolism linking it to broader metabolic functions.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nNR1H4 is involved in the bile acid signaling and lipid metabolism pathways. Within the bile acid signaling pathway NR1H4 modulates the interaction with various proteins such as Small Heterodimer Partner (SHP) to suppress bile acid synthesis. In the context of lipid metabolism NR1H4 interacts with Liver X Receptor (LXR) to regulate cholesterol and triglyceride levels. These interactions demonstrate NR1H4's integral role in maintaining lipid homeostasis.\u003cbr\u003e\nNR1H4 bears relevance to cholestatic liver disease and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). In cholestatic liver disease impaired NR1H4 function leads to abnormal bile acid regulation contributing to liver damage. In NAFLD altered NR1H4 activity affects lipid metabolism promoting liver steatosis. Through these diseases NR1H4 shares connections with the CYP7A1 protein critical for bile acid synthesis and the Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Alpha (PPARα) involved in lipid oxidation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854421184681,"sku":"ab235094","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab235094","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
