Genistein upregulates LDLR levels via JNK-mediated activation of SREBP-2
Background: Genistein has been proved in vitro and in vivo to lower LDLR level. It is also widely consumed and implicated for its anti-atherogenic effects. However, the molecular mechanism by which genistein lowers the LDL level is still unknown. Objective: To understand the anti-atherogenic molecul...
