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 ...

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 (CAR) functions as a tumor suppressor via regulating stemness in liver cancer [PDF]
Constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) is a xenosensor that is almost exclusively expressed in the liver. Studies in rodents suggest an oncogenic role for CAR in liver cancer, but its role in human liver cancer is unclear.

Clinical Relevance of the Constitutive Androstane Receptor. [PDF]
Constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) (NR1I3), a xenobiotic receptor, has long been considered a master mediator of drug disposition and detoxification. Accumulating evidence indicates that CAR also participates in various physiologic and pathophysiological pathways regulating the homeostasis of glucose, lipid, and bile acids, and contributing to cell
