Macrophages are immune myeloid cells with an extreme ability to modulate their phenotype in response to insults and/or pathogens. The immunomodulatory capacity of macrophages is also patent during development as they adapt their phenotype to the host tissue environment establishing the heterogeneous populations of tissue-resident macrophages. An important mechanism of immunomodulation in macrophages occurs through the regulation of transcriptional activity. Numerous transcription factors are associated with macrophage plasticity, among them, several nuclear receptors. The nuclear receptors Liver X Receptors (LXR alpha and LXR beta) have also revealed as active players during macrophage adaptations in diverse scenarios. This review will address the different mechanisms by which LXRs contribute to immunomodulation in macrophages by connecting lipid metabolism and immunity through transcriptional regulation.
