We demonstrated that T0901317 in combination with a MEK1/2 inhibitor, U0126, inhibited atherosclerosis and blocked T0901317-induced hypertriglyceridemia.332 We also reported that the combined treatment of metformin and T0901317 not only blocked T0901317-induced hypertriglyceridemia, but also enhanced the atherosclerosis-inhibiting effect of T0901317 by selectively activating LXRβ but not LXRα.333 In view of the good targeting of nanomaterials, the side effects of liver can be avoided by using nano-carriers to deliver LXR agonizts. Here, NR1H2 is linked to hypertriglyceridemia.
