Figure 5.36 Mechanism of the receptor-mediated induction of CYP4A by a chemical such as the drug clofibrate. The inducer-receptor (PPAR) complex enters the nucleus, binds with RXR, and the complex binds to the receptor response elements in the CYP gene. This induces the production of CYP4A mRNA, which leads to the production of CYP4A protein and functional enzyme. Alternatively, the drug may perturb lipid metabolism leading to increases in a lipid(s), which will bind to the receptor and cause the same response. Abbreviations PPAR, peroxisome proliterator-activated receptor RXR, retinoid X receptor. Figure 5.36 Mechanism of the receptor-mediated induction of CYP4A by a chemical such as the drug clofibrate.
