Bile acid receptors FXR and TGR5 signaling in fatty liver diseases and therapy.
Bile acid synthesis is the most significant pathway for catabolism of cholesterol and for maintaining whole body cholesterol homeostasis. Bile acids are physiological detergents that absorb, distribute, metabolize and excrete nutrients, drugs and ...

FXR signaling in the enterohepatic system [PDF]
Enterohepatic circulation serves to capture bile acids and other steroid metabolites produced in the liver and secreted to the intestine, for reabsorption back into the circulation and reuptake to the liver. This process is under tight regulation by nuclear receptor signaling.

Gender Differences in Bile Acids and Microbiota in Relationship with Gender Dissimilarity in Steatosis Induced by Diet and FXR Inactivation. [PDF]
This study aims to uncover how specific bacteria and bile acids (BAs) contribute to steatosis induced by diet and farnesoid X receptor (FXR) deficiency in both genders.

SUMOylation of the Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) Regulates the Expression of FXR Target Genes [PDF]
Small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMO) are covalently conjugated to other proteins including nuclear receptors leading to modification of various cellular processes.Ligand-dependent SUMOylation of farnesoid X receptor (FXR) negatively regulates the expression of its target genes.SUMO modification attenuates the capacity of FXR to function as a ...
