Non-genomic effects of nuclear receptors: insights from the anucleate platelet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Nuclear receptors have the ability to elicit two different kinds of responses, genomic and non-genomic. While genomic responses control gene expression by influencing the rate of transcription, non-genomic effects occur rapidly and independently of ...

Mutations in the nuclear bile acid receptor FXR cause progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Neonatal cholestasis is a result of elevated bile acid levels, and is associated with mutations in genes regulating bile acid homeostasis. Here the authors identify mutations in the bile acid sensing farnesoid X receptor in four individuals with neonatal

Genetically predicted KIR2DS4 mediate the association between gut microbe K10 and osteoporosis fractures: A mediation Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Osteoporosis fractures pose a significant public health concern, leading to substantial morbidity and mortality rates. The emerging evidence on the potential link between gut microbiota, proteins, and osteoporosis fractures suggests a complex relationship that warrants further investigation.

Functional constraints on the constitutive androstane receptor inferred from human sequence variation and cross-species comparisons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Members of the NR1I subfamily of nuclear receptors play a role in the transcriptional activation of genes involved in drug metabolism and transport. NR1I3, the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR), mediates the induction of several genes involved in ...

Activation of the Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) Suppresses Linoleic Acid-Induced Inflammation in the Large Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys crocea).

open access: yesJournal of NutriLife, 2020
BACKGROUND High linoleic acid (LA) intake leads to inflammation that adversely influences health in fish. However, whether the farnesoid X receptor (FXR) could be an effective target for regulating LA-induced inflammation remains unknown. OBJECTIVE The

Farnesoid X receptor prevents hyperuricemia via activating ATP‐binding cassette subfamily G member 2

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) activation reduces serum uric acid levels by upregulating the intestinal urate transporter ATP‐binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2). These findings uncover a novel metabolic pathway for urate excretion and suggest that FXR agonists (e.g., obeticholic acid), represent a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment

Origin and diversification of steroids: Co-evolution of enzymes and nuclear receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Recent sequencing of amphioxus and sea urchin genomes has provided important data for understanding the origins of enzymes that synthesize adrenal and sex steroids and the receptors that mediate physiological response to these vertebrate steroids ...

Dose-related liver injury of Geniposide associated with the alteration in bile acid synthesis and transportation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Fructus Gardenia (FG), containing the major active constituent Geniposide, is widely used in China for medicinal purposes. Currently, clinical reports of FG toxicity have not been published, however, animal studies have shown FG or Geniposide can cause ...

Farnesoid X receptor activation induces antitumour activity in colorectal cancer by suppressing JAK2/STAT3 signalling via transactivation of SOCS3 gene

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2020
Farnesoid X receptor (FXR, encoded by NR1H4), a bile acid‐activated nuclear receptor, is widely implicated in human tumorigenesis. The FXR agonist obeticholic acid (OCA) has preliminarily displayed tumour suppressor potential.

Farnesoid X receptor: A “homeostat” for hepatic nutrient metabolism

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2018
The Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a nuclear receptor activated by bile acids (BAs). BAs are amphipathic molecules that serve as fat solubilizers in the intestine under postprandial conditions. In the post-absorptive state, BAs bind FXR in the hepatocytes, which in turn provides feedback signals on BA synthesis and transport and regulates lipid, glucose
