The Effects of PPAR Agonists on Atherosclerosis and Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in ApoE−/−FXR−/− Mice [PDF]
Background Farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a bile acid–activated nuclear receptor, is a potent regulator of glucose and lipid metabolism as well as of bile acid metabolism.

FXR inhibition may protect from SARS-CoV-2 infection by reducing ACE2
Preventing SARS-CoV-2 infection by modulating viral host receptors, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)^ 1 , could represent a new chemoprophylactic approach for COVID-19 that complements vaccination^ 2 , 3 .

Improving glucose and lipids metabolism: drug development based on bile acid related targets
Bariatric surgery is one of the most effective treatment options for severe obesity and its comorbidities. However, it is a major surgery that poses several side effects and risks which impede its clinical use.

Bile acid dysmetabolism in inflammatory bowel diseases
Aim: To summarize the state-of-the-art data on the molecular mechanisms of bile acid (BA) synthesis and absorption, their impaired absorption and receptor-dependent signaling, as well as on the effects of the gut microbiota on BA metabolism in ...

Bile Acid Receptor Therapeutics Effects on Chronic Liver Diseases [PDF]
In the past ten years, our understanding of the importance of bile acids has expanded from fat absorption and glucose/lipid/energy homeostasis into potential therapeutic targets for amelioration of chronic cholestatic liver diseases.

Molecular Basis of Bile Acid-FXR-FGF15/19 Signaling Axis
Bile acids (BAs) are a group of amphiphilic molecules consisting of a rigid steroid core attached to a hydroxyl group with a varying number, position, and orientation, and a hydrophilic side chain.

Abstract Background and Aims Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor α (PPARα) regulates fatty acid transport and catabolism in liver. However, the role of intestinal PPARα in lipid homeostasis is largely unknown. Here, intestinal PPARα was examined for its modulation of obesity and NASH. Approach and Results Intestinal PPARα was activated and fatty
