ABSTRACT:
A method of easily measuring whether or not an LXR ligand has the function of effecting, e.g., increasing, plasma triglyceride concentration and/or LDL cholesterol concentration in a mammal by using the binding activity between LXR and a coactivator, and a method of identifying LXR ligands that do not have the function of effecting, e.g., increasing, plasma triglyceride concentration and/or LDL cholesterol concentration by using the binding activity between LXR and a coactivator.
