title: Rat liver BiP/GRP78 is down-regulated by a peroxisome-proliferator, clofibrate.
abstract: Administration of clofibrate in rat results in down-regulation of several liver proteins and a vast induction of peroxisomal proteins. One protein was identified as BiP/GRP78 using antibodies and cDNA cloning. The level of mRNA was reduced by the drug.
