NUBIScan, an in silico approach for prediction of nuclear receptor response elements [PDF]
Nuclear receptors (NRs) are transcription factors activated by a multitude of hormones, other endogenous substances, and exogenous molecules. These proteins modulate the regulation of target genes by contacting their promoter or enhancer sequences at ...

Dexamethasone‐Mediated Regulation of CYP3A4 and UGTs in Human Hepatoma HuH‐7 Cells
ABSTRACT Background The application of human hepatic cell lines to early drug discovery and development instead of human primary hepatocytes (HPHs) has been limited because of the low level of drug‐metabolizing enzymes (DMEs). Objective The study aimed to evaluate the effects of dexamethasone (DEX) treatment on DME expression, activities, and ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Loss‐of‐function mutations in bile acid (BA)‐activated farnesoid x receptor (FXR/NR1H4) cause severe neonatal liver pathology in humans, earlier referred to as progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 5 (PFIC5). However, Fxr‐deficient mice do not develop early‐onset liver disease, possibly due to the predominance ...

Regulation of CAR and PXR Expression in Health and Disease
Pregnane X receptor (PXR, NR1I2) and constitutive androstane receptor (CAR, NR1I3) are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily that mainly act as ligand-activated transcription factors. Their functions have long been associated with the regulation of

Impact of Concomitant Metamizole Treatment on the Exposure of Mould‐Active Triazoles
ABSTRACT Aim Metamizole is an analgesic drug with moderate cytochrome P450 (CYP) inductive properties. The antifungal triazoles are metabolized by several CYP enzymes, but the interaction with metamizole remains poorly described. We investigated the influence of metamizole on the exposure of voriconazole, isavuconazole, and posaconazole.
