Constitutive androstane receptor and pregnane X receptor genotype influence efavirenz plasma concentration and CYP2B6 enzyme activity [PDF]
Efavirenz is metabolized by CYP2B6, an inducible enzyme whose expression is regulated by the constitutive androstane receptor and pregnane X receptor nuclear receptors. CAR and PXR are encoded by genetically polymorphic NR1I2 and NR1I3, respectively.

Pharmacological activation of constitutive androstane receptor induces female-specific modulation of hepatic metabolism [PDF]
Background & Aims: The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) is a nuclear receptor that binds diverse xenobiotics and whose activation leads to the modulation of the expression of target genes involved in xenobiotic detoxification and energy ...

Gadd45b is required in part for the anti-obesity effect of constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) [PDF]
Crosstalk between xenobiotic metabolism and energy metabolism in the liver has provided a potential opportunity to target xenobiotic receptors to treat metabolic diseases. Activation of constitutive androstane receptor (CAR), a xenobiotic-sensing nuclear

Constitutive Androstane Receptor-Mediated Inhibition of Metformin on Phase II Metabolic Enzyme SULT2A1 [PDF]
Background. Metformin, as a first-line treatment for diabetes, interacts with many protein kinases and transcription factors which affect the expression of downstream target genes governing drug metabolism.

Constitutive androstane receptor induced-hepatomegaly and liver regeneration is partially via yes-associated protein activation [PDF]
The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR, NR3I1) belongs to nuclear receptor superfamily. It was reported that CAR agonist TCPOBOP induces hepatomegaly but the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown.

Liver matrin-3 protects mice against hepatic steatosis and stress response via constitutive androstane receptor [PDF]
Objective: The prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) continues to rise with the increasing obesity epidemic. Rezdiffra as an activator of a thyroid hormone receptor-beta is the only Food and Drug Administration ...

DL5050, a Selective Agonist for the Human Constitutive Androstane Receptor. [PDF]
The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) is a xenobiotic sensor governing the transcription of genes involved in drug disposition, energy homeostasis, and cell proliferation. However, currently available human CAR (hCAR) agonists are nonselective, which commonly activate hCAR along with other nuclear receptors, especially the closely related human ...

β-catenin signaling, the constitutive androstane receptor and their mutual interactions. [PDF]
AbstractAberrant signaling through β-catenin is an important determinant of tumorigenesis in rodents as well as in humans. In mice, xenobiotic activators of the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR), a chemo-sensing nuclear receptor, promote liver tumor growth by means of a non-genotoxic mechanism and, under certain conditions, select for ...
