Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) catalyzes the assembly of triglycerides-rich apoB-containing liver (e.g., VLDL) and intestinal (e.g., chylomicrons) lipoproteins. The human MTP gene promoter is reported here to associate in vivo with endogenous hepatocyte nuclear factor-4

Transcriptional regulation of human microsomal triglyceride transfer protein by hepatocyte nuclear factor-4
(HNF-4
) and to be transactivated or transuppressed by overexpressed or by dominant negative HNF-4
, respectively. hMTP transactivation by HNF-4
is accounted for by the concerted activity of a distal (-83/-70) and proximal (-50/-38) DR1 elements of the hMTP core promoter that bind HNF-4
. Transactivation by HNF-4
is specifically antagonized by COUP. Transcriptional activation of hMTP by HNF-4
is mediated by HNF-4
domains engaged in ligand binding and ligand driven transactivation, and is further complemented by HNF-4
/HNF-1
synergism that involves the HNF-4
AF-1 domain. hMTP transactivation by HNF-4
is specifically inhibited by Medica 16 acting as HNF-4
antagonist ligand. hMTP transactivation by HNF-4
may account for activation or inhibition of MTP expression and the production of TG-rich lipoproteins by agonist (e.g., saturated fatty acids) or antagonist (e.g., (n-3) PUFA, hypolipidemic fibrate or Medica compounds) HNF-4
ligands, respectively.
