High impact information on Abcd2

 

Biological context of Abcd2

 

Anatomical context of Abcd2

  • The different expression patterns could explain why beta-oxidation is defective in X-ALD, although ALDRP and PMP70 can replace ALDP functionally in fibroblasts [3].
 

Associations of Abcd2 with chemical compounds

  • Dietary fenofibrate had no effect on the ALD and P70R genes, but strongly increased expression of the ALDR and PMP70 genes in mouse liver [3].
