The role of nuclear receptor NHR-64 in fat storage regulation in Caenorhabditis elegans.

The role of nuclear receptor NHR-64 in fat storage regulation in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Nuclear hormone receptors (NHRs) play vital roles in the regulation of metabolism, reproduction, and development. We found that inactivation of a C. elegans HNF4 homologue nhr-64 by RNA interference (RNAi) suppresses low fat stores in stearoyl-CoA desaturase-deficient fat-6;fat-7 double mutants and...
