Abstract
Background: Small heterodimer partner interacting leucine zipper protein (SMILE) is a nuclear corepressor of the nuclear receptor family. Results: Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) increases SMILE gene expression, which contributes to inhibiting liver X receptor α (LXRα)-mediated hepatic lipogenesis. Conclusion: UDCA-induced smile inhibits LXRα-mediated hepatic lipogenic gene expression.
