Dimorphic metabolic and endocrine disorders in mice lacking the constitutive androstane receptor. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2019
Metabolic diseases such as obesity, type II diabetes and hepatic steatosis are a public health concern in developed countries. The metabolic risk is gender‐dependent.

Constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) functions as a tumor suppressor via regulating stemness in liver cancer [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
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.

DNA elements for constitutive androstane receptor- and pregnane X receptor-mediated regulation of bovine CYP3A28 gene.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The regulation of cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) enzymes is established in humans, but molecular mechanisms of its basal and xenobiotic-mediated regulation in cattle are still unknown.

Transcriptomic analysis across liver diseases reveals disease-modulating activation of constitutive androstane receptor in cholestasis [PDF]

open access: yesJHEP Reports, 2020
Background & Aims: Liver diseases are caused by many factors, such as genetics, nutrition, and viruses. Therefore, it is important to delineate transcriptomic changes that occur in various liver diseases.

Constitutive androstane receptor-responsive elements for mouse Cyp1a2 transcriptional activation induced by constitutive androstane receptor ligands.

open access: yesDrug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics, 2022
The mouse cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1a2) gene is one of the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR, NR1I3) activator-inducible genes, and the regions involved in induction were examined herein. A reporter gene assay indicated the involvement of the -0.2-kb region in the induction of transcriptional activation by the mouse CAR agonist ligand 1,4-bis-[2-(3 ...

An optimized protocol with a stepwise approach to identify specific nuclear receptor ligands from cultured mammalian cells

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: Here, we describe an optimized protocol to identify specific nuclear receptor ligands. First, to rule out any compound interference with luciferase activity per se, we describe an in vitro assay assessing potential inhibition or activation of ...

Constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) mediates pyrene‐induced inflammatory responses in mouse liver, with increased serum amyloid A proteins and Th17 cells

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2022
The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR), a known xenobiotic sensor, plays an important role in drug metabolism by regulating numerous genes. The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon pyrene, an environmental pollutant, is a CAR activator and induces mouse ...

Critical evaluation of the human relevance of the mode of action for rodent liver tumor formation by activators of the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR)

open access: yesCritical Reviews in Toxicology, 2021
Many nongenotoxic chemicals have been shown to produce liver tumors in mice and/or rats by a mode of action (MOA) involving activation of the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR).

Nuclear receptor CAR represses TNFα-induced cell death by interacting with the anti-apoptotic GADD45B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Phenobarbital (PB) is the most well-known among numerous non-genotoxic carcinogens that cause the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). PB activates nuclear xenobiotic receptor Constitutive Active/Androstane Receptor (CAR; NR1I3) and
