Induction of cytochrome P450 2C9 and P‐glycoprotein activity by antiseizure medications: A systematic review and network meta‐analysis

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 855-867, June 2026.
Abstract Objectives Antiseizure medications (ASMs) can induce the activity of drug‐metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters, including cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C9 and P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp). Our objective was to comparatively assess the effects of ASMs on exposure to clinical CYP2C9 and P‐gp substrates.

Structure and Function of the Nuclear Receptor Constitutive Androstane Receptor

open access: yesYAKUGAKU ZASSHI, 2016
Animal defense mechanisms against both endogenous and exogenous toxic compounds function mainly through receptor-type transcription factors, including the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR). Following xenobiotic stimulation, CAR translocates into the nucleus and transactivates its target genes including oxygenic and conjugative enzymes and ...

Continuous Subcutaneous Ketamine Infusion May Induce Tacrolimus and Sirolimus Clearance: A Case Report

open access: yesPharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, Volume 46, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Drug interactions involving immunosuppressants can compromise transplant outcomes. Although repeated ketamine administration induces hepatic enzymes in experimental models, clinical reports of induced clearance of cytochrome P450 (CYP) substrates are lacking. Continuous subcutaneous ketamine infusions are increasingly used for acute

Regulation of the human cathepsin E gene by the constitutive androstane receptor [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2007
Cathepsin E (CTSE) is an aspartic protease that has been linked to antigen processing and innate immunity. Elevated levels of CTSE expression have also been associated with several forms of cancer, including carcinomas exhibiting highly invasive character.

Atypical functions of xenobiotic receptors in lipid and glucose metabolism

open access: yesMedical Review, 2022
Xenobiotic receptors are traditionally defined as xenobiotic chemical-sensing receptors, the activation of which transcriptionally regulates the expression of enzymes and transporters involved in the metabolism and disposition of xenobiotics.

Bile acid metabolism and sleep: Mechanistic interplay and clinical implications of the gut–liver–brain axis

open access: yesSleep Research, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 170-179, June 2026.
Abstract The bidirectional interplay between sleep and metabolic homeostasis is fundamental to physiological health. While the roles of glucose and lipid metabolism in sleep regulation have been extensively characterized, bile acids (BAs), which are traditionally viewed as digestive surfactants, are emerging as critical metabolic messengers with ...

The ALS‐associated E425K mutation uncouples DNAJC7 from the Hsp70 chaperone cycle

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 12, Page 3485-3501, June 2026.
DNAJC7 is a J‐domain protein that plays a key role in protein quality control by regulating Hsp70 activity and preventing protein aggregation. We find that the ALS‐associated E425K mutation in DNAJC7 disrupts productive interaction and activation of Hsp70, thereby blocking the transfer and refolding of client proteins such as TDP‐43.

Bilirubin as a Modulator of WNK1 Protein Signaling: Implications for Neuroinflammatory Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 27, 13 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Previously regarded merely as a potentially harmful waste product of heme catabolism, bilirubin has now emerged as a pleiotropic molecule with potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and hormone‐like properties. Recent findings have revealed protective effects against cardiovascular, metabolic, autoimmune, and neoplastic diseases, as well as ...

Probing the Biological Plausibility of Fluoride as an Endocrine Disruptor

open access: yesBirth Defects Research, Volume 118, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Fluoride has come under recent scrutiny regarding concerns over potential neurodevelopmental and endocrine‐related toxicities, with recent reviews by the National Toxicology Program (NTP) and European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) concluding with moderate or reasonable confidence, respectively, that exposure to drinking water having ...
