ABCA1, the mutant molecule in Tangier Disease, mediates efflux of cellular cholesterol to apoA-I and is induced by liver X receptor (LXR)/retinoid X receptor (RXR) transcription factors. Retinoic acid receptor (RAR) activators (all-trans-retinoic acid [ATRA] and TTNPB) were found to increase ATP-binding cassette transporter 1 (ABCA1) mRNA and protein in macrophages. In cellular cotransfection assays, RAR{gamma}/RXR activated the human ABCA1 promoter, via the same direct repeat 4 (DR4) promoter element as LXR/RXR. Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis in macrophages confirmed the binding of RAR{gamma}/RXR to the ABCA1 promoter DR4 element in the presence of ATRA, with weaker binding of RAR{alpha}/RXR, and no binding of RARß/RXR. However, in macrophages from RAR{gamma}-/- mice, TTNPB still induced ABCA1, in association with marked upregulation of RAR{alpha}, suggesting that high levels of RAR{alpha} can compensate for the absence of RAR{gamma}. Dose-response experiments with ATRA in mouse primary macrophages showed that other LXR target genes were weakly induced (ABCG1 and SREBP-1c) or not induced (apoE and LXR{alpha}). The more specific RAR activator TTNPB did not induce SREBP-1c in mouse primary macrophages or liver. These studies indicate a direct role of RAR{gamma}/RXR in induction of macrophage ABCA1.
