Introduction/overview Nuclear receptors (NRs) are evolutionarily related DNA-binding transcription factors (TFs) ( Gronemeyer et al . 2004 , Chambon 2005 , Evans 2005 ). They regulate many aspects of mammalian physiology, including metabolism

epigenetic changes, which are regulated by multiple signaling pathways ( Bassel-Duby & Olson 2006 , Barrès et al . 2012 ). In addition to the widely known calcineurin/NFAT and HDAC/MEF pathways, it has recently been shown that nuclear receptors (NRs) and

Historical perspective Nuclear receptors are a large family of DNA-binding transcription factors that are recruited to specific DNA sequences in the genome and regulate the expression of genes in the proximity (<1 million base pairs) of these sites

Introduction As transcription factors, nuclear receptors (NRs) bind directly to lipophilic ligands, such as steroids, thyroid hormone, retinoids, and dietary lipids, and respond by regulating gene expression programs ( Mangelsdorf & Evans 1995
