Abstract

The invention aims to provide an application of Menin in reduction of expression of an endogenous sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1c in HEK293T cells and liver cells, and is characterized by comprising a Menin over-expression step. Another objective of the invention is to provide an application of the Menin in inhibition of transcriptional activity of an HEK293T cell and liver X receptor LXR alpha, and is characterized by comprising a Menin over-expression step. Another objective of the invention is to provide an application of the Menin in inhibition of expression of a target gene of the HEK293T cell and liver X receptor LXR alpha, and is characterized by comprising steps of Menin over-expression and combination with the LXR alpha. According to the applications of the Menin, new research methods and reagents are provided for research and treatment of fatty liver, and a new way is provided for future treatment of fatty liver.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the application of Menin protein and belongs to the field of biotechnology. Background technique [0002] Menin is encoded by the MEN1 gene and was originally identified as a suppressor of multiple endocrine tumors. Our previous report showed that Menin can enhance PPARα transcriptional activity and prevent liver triglyceride accumulation. [0003] Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or liver steatosis, characterized by the accumulation of triglycerides (TG) in liver cells, has become an important public health problem worldwide. In China, its prevalence reaches about 15% among adults. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of NAFLD process has not been clarified. [0004] In general, the TG homeostasis of the liver is strictly controlled by TG synthesis, β oxidation, and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-TG. The rate of hepatic fat production depends on a variety of lipogenic enzymes, which are caused by several nuclea...
