The Farnesoid X Receptor: Good for BADSummary [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2016
Diarrhea is a feature of several chronic intestinal disorders that are associated with increased delivery of bile acids into the colon. Although the prevalence of bile acid diarrhea is high, affecting approximately 1% of the adult population, current ...

Pregnane X Receptor Is a Target of Farnesoid X Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
The pregnane X receptor (PXR) is an essential component of the body's detoxification system. PXR is activated by a broad spectrum of xenobiotics and endobiotics, including bile acids and their precursors. Bile acids in high concentrations are toxic; therefore, their synthesis is tightly regulated by the farnesoid X receptor, and their catabolism ...

NAFLD‐related hepatocellular carcinoma: The growing challenge

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Risk and protective factors for NAFLD‐related hepatocellular carcinoma Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common cause of cancer‐related mortality and morbidity worldwide. With the obesity pandemic, NAFLD‐related HCC is contributing to the burden of disease exponentially.

IL‐31 levels correlate with pruritus in patients with cholestatic and metabolic liver diseases and is farnesoid X receptor responsive in NASH

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
IL‐31 levels correlate with pruritus in patients with cholestatic and metabolic liver diseases Abstract Background and Aims Pruritus is associated with multiple liver diseases, particularly those with cholestasis, but the mechanism remains incompletely understood.

Enhanced mitochondrial activity reshapes a gut microbiota profile that delays NASH progression

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Improved mitochondrial activity, due to the lack of methylation‐controlled J protein (MCJ), creates a specific microbiota signature that when transferred through cecal microbiota transplantation delays NASH progression by restoring the gut‐liver axis and enhancing hepatic fatty acid oxidation.

Genetic predisposition to porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder: A functional genomic‐based, multigenerational family study

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
A deleterious variant of FCHSD1 results in mTOR pathway overactivation and may cause porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD). The pedigree of the family demonstrated an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressivity. Whole‐genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing both validated the existence of the FCHSD1 variant and the heterozygosity of c ...

Combinatorial targeting of G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 and cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 reveals a mechanistic role for bile acids and leukotrienes in drug‐induced liver injury

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
CHIN117 is a dual cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CYSLTR1) antagonist and G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1) agonist. In the liver, GPBAR1 and CYSLTR1 are coexpressed by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), HSCs, circulating monocytes/macrophages, and liver resident macrophages (Kupffer cells).

Farnesoid x Receptor Deficiency Promotes Hepatocytic Injury in Cyp2c70-Deficient Mice With a Human-Like Bile Acid Composition. [PDF]

open access: yesLiver Int
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 ...

Identification of DRIP205 as a Coactivator for the Farnesoid X Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a bile acid sensor that regulates the expression of a number of genes the products of which control bile acid and cholesterol homeostasis; however, the role of DRIP205 in FXR-mediated gene regulation remains unexplored. In this study we demonstrate that DRIP205 binds FXR in a ligand-dependent manner in vitro and in vivo ...

Expression and activation of the farnesoid X receptor in the vasculature [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004
The farnesoid X receptor/bile acid receptor (FXR) is a recently discovered member of the nuclear hormone superfamily. FXR ligands have been proposed as targets in cardiovascular disease, regulating cholesterol metabolism and bile acid transport and metabolism in the liver and gastrointestinal tract.
