PMON251 Loss of Constitutive Androstane Receptor, CAR reduces the serum androgens levels and alters reproductive function

open access: yesJournal of the Endocrine Society, 2022
The nuclear receptor, Constitutive Androstane Receptor (CAR/NR1i3) is extensively known for its detoxification function in the liver. We have identified the role of CAR in regulating androgen levels and regulating testis function.

Deletion of Nuclear Receptor Constitutive Androstane Receptor CAR Increases Anxiety and Lowers Androgen Levels

open access: yesJournal of the Endocrine Society, 2021
The orphan nuclear receptor, Constitutive Androstane Receptor (CAR, NR1I3) is primarily known to regulate the transcriptional networks involved in detoxification.

Orphan Nuclear Receptors Constitutive Androstane Receptor and Pregnane X Receptor Share Xenobiotic and Steroid Ligands*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
Xenobiotics induce the transcription of cytochromes P450 (CYPs) 2B and 3A through the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR; NR1I3) and pregnane X receptor (PXR; NR1I2), respectively.

Transcriptional Regulation of CYP2C9 Gene

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
Although cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) is a major CYP expressed in the adult human liver, its mechanism of regulation is poorly known. In previous work, we have shown that CYP2C9is inducible in primary human hepatocytes by xenobiotics including ...

Complex effects of rexinoids on ligand dependent activation or inhibition of the xenobiotic receptor, CAR

open access: yesNuclear Receptor, 2003
BackgroundCAR/RXR heterodimers bind a variety of hormone response elements and activate transcription in the absence of added ligands. This constitutive activity of murine CAR can be inhibited by the inverse agonist ligand androstanol or increased by the

Bile acid homeostasis controls CAR signaling pathways in mouse testis through FXRalpha

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Bile acids (BAs) are molecules with endocrine activities controlling several physiological functions such as immunity, glucose homeostasis, testicular physiology and male fertility.

A concentration addition model for the activation of the constitutive androstane receptor by xenobiotic mixtures.

open access: yesToxicological Sciences, 2009
The effects of contaminants are typically studied in individual exposures; however, environmental exposures are rarely from a single contaminant. Therefore, the study of chemical mixtures is important in determining the effects of xenobiotics.

The environmental estrogen, nonylphenol, activates the constitutive androstane receptor.

open access: yesToxicological Sciences, 2007
Nonylphenol (NP) and its parent compounds, the nonylphenol ethoxylates are some of the most prevalent chemicals found in U.S. waterways. NP is also resistant to biodegradation and is a known environmental estrogen, which makes NP a chemical of concern ...

Antibacterial activity of deer musk and Ziziphus spina-christi against carbapebem resis-tant gram negative bacteria isolated from patients with burns and wounds [PDF]

open access: yes
Bacteria were isolated from 250 specimens obtained from patients attending the Plastic Reconstructive and Burn Surgery Hospital in the Sulaymaniyah (Kurdistan region) and the burn and wound care units of the Azadi Teaching Hospital (Kirkuk), Iraq.

Antagonist- and inverse agonist-driven interactions of the vitamin D receptor and the constitutive androstane receptor with corepressor protein.

open access: yesMolecular Endocrinology, 2005
Ligand-dependent signal transduction by nuclear receptors (NRs) includes dynamic exchanges of coactivator (CoA) and corepressor (CoR) proteins. Here we focused on the structural determinants of the antagonist- and inverse agonist-enhanced interaction of ...
