Regulation of aldo-keto reductases in human diseases

Frontiers in pharmacology ·doi:10.3389/fphar.2012.00035

The aldo-keto reductases (AKRs) are a superfamily of NAD(P)H-linked oxidoreductases, which reduce aldehydes and ketones to their respective primary and secondary alcohols. AKR enzymes are increasingly being recognized to play an important r…

Chicken ovalbumin upstream-promoter transcription factor and E-box-binding proteins enhance thyroid-hormone responsiveness of the malic enzyme gene in avian hepatocytes

The Biochemical journal ·doi:10.1042/bj3610391

In chick embryo hepatocytes (CEH), stimulation of malic enzyme transcription by 3,3',5-tri-iodothyronine (T3) is mediated by a liver-specific and T3-inducible DNase I hypersensitive region (-3910 to -3640 bp) in the malic enzyme gene. Previ…
