2 results about "Liver X receptor" patented technology

The liver X receptor (LXR) is a member of the nuclear receptor family of transcription factors and is closely related to nuclear receptors such as the PPARs, FXR and RXR. Liver X receptors (LXRs) are important regulators of cholesterol, fatty acid, and glucose homeostasis. LXRs were earlier classified as orphan nuclear receptors, however, upon discovery of endogenous oxysterols as ligands, they were subsequently deorphanized.

Preparation and application of nanoparticles for enhancing cell burial function of macrophages

The invention discloses preparation and application of macrophage targeting nanoparticles entrapped with a cell burial function accelerant. The medicine for enhancing the intercellular function of the macrophages is a liver X receptor stimulant, and the liver X receptor stimulant comprises at least one of T0901317, GW3965, Ouabagenin and LXR-623. The surface of the targeting nanoparticle is coated with a macrophage cell membrane, and meanwhile, a urokinase type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) targeting ligand is modified. The nanoparticle can be efficiently accumulated at an inflammatory focus part by utilizing a macrophage cell membrane, and the modified targeting ligand is used for targeting the macrophage with damaged cell burial function, so that the cell burial function of the macrophage is enhanced, the polarization of the macrophage to an anti-inflammatory phenotype is promoted, the release of anti-inflammatory and proinflammatory cytokines is regulated, and the anti-inflammatory effect of the nanoparticle is improved. And finally, the inflammatory microenvironment of a focus part is regulated and controlled, so that a good effect of treating autoimmune diseases is achieved.
