Brief description Nuclear receptors (NRs) function as hormone dependent DNA binding proteins important in sustaining human health, highlighted by the array of medicines that target these proteins for human well being. ROR alpha is one such protein that we have shown regulates fat mass, obesity, and glucose tolerance. Obesity and diabetes are often linked with inflammation. We will examine how ROR controls inflammation during metabolic disease.
