Rat LXR beta (liver X Receptor Beta) ELISA Kit  (RTES01183)

LXR beta (Liver X Receptor Beta), encoded by the NR1H2 gene, functions as a ligand-activated nuclear receptor that regulates cholesterol homeostasis, fatty acid metabolism, and inflammatory gene expression in rodents. The Assay Genie kit uses colorimetric measurement to quantify this receptor in rat samples, enabling researchers to investigate hepatic lipid handling, macrophage cholesterol efflux, and nuclear receptor signaling under varied dietary or pharmacological interventions. The kit ships as 96 individual determinations, supporting high-throughput profiling of rat tissue extracts, primary cell isolates, and conditioned media from cultured hepatocytes or adipocytes. Applications include studies of atherosclerosis models, metabolic syndrome research, and characterization of LXR agonists and antagonists in rodent systems.
