Regulation of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein mRNA expression by endotoxin and cytokines

We studied the effect of endotoxin (LPS), and cytokines (TNF, IL-1, and IL-6) on hepatic microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) mRNA levels in vivo in Syrian hamsters and in vitro in HepG2 cells. LPS, interleukin-1 (IL-1), and to a lesser extent tumor necrosis factor (TNF) significantly decr...
