Popis: Voisin et al. show that reducing phosphorylation at serine 196 of LXRα (LXRα pS196) in hematopoietic cells attenuates atherosclerosis and obesity of mice fed a high-fat diet. They find that the transcriptional activity of LXRα is reprogrammed in macrophages and T cells to promote an anti-inflammatory phenotype, thus identifying a functional role of LXRα pS196 in immune cells.
