1 The Niemann-Pick C1 gene is downregulated in livers of C57BL/6J mice by dietary fatty acids, but not dietary cholesterol, through feedback inhibition of the SREBP pathway. Fatty Acids NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Mus musculus
2 The key results showed that the Npc1 gene was downregulated by dietary fatty acids (54%, P = 0.022), but not by dietary cholesterol, through feedback inhibition of the sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) pathway. Fatty Acids NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Mus musculus
3 These results are important because they suggest a novel mechanism for the interaction of fatty acids with the Npc1 gene to influence energy balance and to promote weight gain. Fatty Acids NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Mus musculus
4 Moreover, the responsiveness of the Npc1 gene to fatty acids is consistent with studies that suggest that the encoded NPC1 protein has a physiologic role in regulating both cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. Fatty Acids NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Mus musculus
5 Moreover, the responsiveness of the Npc1 gene to fatty acids is consistent with studies that suggest that the encoded NPC1 protein has a physiologic role in regulating both cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. Fatty Acids NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Mus musculus
6 Moreover, the responsiveness of the Npc1 gene to fatty acids is consistent with studies that suggest that the encoded NPC1 protein has a physiologic role in regulating both cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. Fatty Acids NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Mus musculus
7 Moreover, the responsiveness of the Npc1 gene to fatty acids is consistent with studies that suggest that the encoded NPC1 protein has a physiologic role in regulating both cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. Fatty Acids NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Mus musculus
