“…For the luciferase reporter assay, 10 μg of pPBRU2C1-luc DNA, 0.3 μg of pRL-SV40 DNA, and, as indicated, 1 or 10 μg of expression vector DNA for mCAR or p160 coactivators, respectively, were injected. Twenty-four h after the injection, the mice were sacrificed, the liver tissue was homogenized, and luciferase activity was determined by the dual luciferase assay as described [14].…”
