The Environmental Estrogen, Nonylphenol, Activates the Constitutive Androstane Receptor [PDF]

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.

Structural and functional similarity of amphibian constitutive androstane receptor with mammalian pregnane X receptor.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The nuclear receptors and xenosensors constitutive androstane receptor (CAR, NR1I3) and pregnane X receptor (PXR, NR1I2) induce the expression of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes and transporters, which also affects various endobiotics.

Regulation of CYP3A genes by glucocorticoids in human lung cells [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/1z6]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2013
Inhaled glucocorticoids are the first-line treatment for patients with persistent asthma.  However, approximately thirty percent of patients exhibit glucocorticoid insensitivity, which may involve excess metabolic clearance of the glucocorticoids by ...

Alternatively spliced isoforms of the human constitutive androstane receptor [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2003
The nuclear receptor CAR (NR1I3) regulates transcription of genes encoding xenobiotic- and steroid-metabolizing enzymes. Regulatory processes that are mediated by CAR are modulated by a structurally diverse array of chemicals including common pharmaceutical and environmental agents.

Dual action of oestrogens on the mouse constitutive androstane receptor [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2003
mCAR (mouse constitutive androstane receptor; NR1I3) controls the expression of cytochrome P450 as well as other enzymes involved in drug and steroid metabolism. The high basal activity of mCAR can be modulated by inhibitory steroids related to androstenol and by activating xenobiotic chemicals such as 1,4-bis-[2-(3,5-dichloropyridyloxy)]benzene and ...

A brief history of the discovery of PXR and CAR as xenobiotic receptors

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2016
The nuclear receptors pregnane X receptor (PXR) and constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) were cloned and/or established as xenobiotic receptors in 1998.

Persisting fetal clonotypes influence the structure and overlap of adult human T cell receptor repertoires [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Comput Biol 13(7): e1005572 (2017), 2016
The diversity of T-cell receptors recognizing foreign pathogens is generated through a highly stochastic recombination process, making the independent production of the same sequence rare. Yet unrelated individuals do share receptors, which together constitute a "public" repertoire of abundant clonotypes.

Xenobiotic CAR activators induce Dlk1-Dio3 locus non-coding RNA expression in mouse liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Predicting the impact of human exposure to chemicals such as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals requires the development of reliable and predictive biomarkers suitable for the detection of early events potentially leading to adverse outcomes.
