Regulation of human class I alcohol dehydrogenases by bile acids

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2013
Class I alcohol dehydrogenases (ADH1s) are the rate-limiting enzymes for ethanol and vitamin A (retinol) metabolism in the liver. Because previous studies have shown that human ADH1 enzymes may participate in bile acid metabolism, we investigated whether

Re‐thinking peripheral dysfunctions in obesity: The emerging role of sulphaceutics and sulphanutraceutics

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Obesity is a chronic, relapsing, multisystem disease in which cardiometabolic risk arises from excess adiposity and progressive dysfunction of peripheral organs, ultimately disrupting endocrine and metabolic crosstalk among tissues. Within this network, sulphur‐based biology, centred on hydrogen sulphide and related reactive sulphur species, has ...

Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) from normal to malignant state [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of ligand-activated transcription factors, which plays crucial role in bile acid, cholesterol, lipid and glucose metabolism, as well as in the development of atherosclerosis ...

FXR induces the UGT2B4 enzyme in hepatocytes: A potential mechanism of negative feedback control of FXR activity

open access: yes, 2003
Background & Aims: Bile acids are essential for bile formation and Intestinal absorption of lipids and fat-soluble vitamins. However, the intrinsic toxicity of hydrophobic bile acids demands a tight control of their intracellular concentrations.

Alamandine/MrgD pathway modulates gut–bone marrow axis in ageing

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Ageing is associated with colon epithelial barrier disruption and up‐regulation of myelopoiesis in the bone marrow (BM). Alamandine (Ala) and MrgD are novel members of the renin angiotensin system (RAS). This study tested the hypothesis that Ala restores the colon epithelial barrier integrity in ageing via modulating gut–

The role of FXR in disorders of bile acid homeostasis

open access: yes, 2008
As ligands for the nuclear receptor FXR, bile acids regulate their own synthesis, transport, and conjugation, thus protecting against bile acid toxicity. Recently, the role of genetic variants in FXR itself, FXR target genes, and regulators of FXR in the

Tissue-specific actions of FXR in metabolism and cancer.

open access: yes, 2015
The nuclear Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) is a transcription factor critically involved in metabolic homeostasis in the gut-liver axis. FXR activity is mediated by hormonal and dietary signals and driven by bile acids (BAs), which are the natural FXR ...
