    摘要: This invention provides novel methods for modulating expression of glut4 and other genes involved in glucose metabolism, and methods for treating or ameliorating diabetes and related diseases. The methods comprise administering to cells in a subject an effective amount of an LXR agonist and thereby modulating expression of those genes that are important for glucose uptake or gluconeogenesis. The modulation will lead to increased uptake of glucose by cells in the subject and/or reduced glucose output in the liver, and accordingly ameliorate symptoms associated with, e.g., type II diabetes.
