A Role of the Bile Salt Receptor FXR in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
This study reviews current insights into the role of bile salts and bile salt receptors on the progression and regression of atherosclerosis. Bile salts have emerged as important modifiers of lipid and energy metabolism.

Discovery, optimization, and evaluation of non-bile acid FXR/TGR5 dual agonists
Although several potent bile acid Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and Takeda G-protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5, GPBAR1) dual agonists such as INT-767 have been reported, no non-bile acid FXR/TGR5 dual agonist has been investigated to date.

Bile acid metabolism and signaling in liver disease and therapy
Bile acids play a critical role in the regulation of glucose, lipid, and energy metabolism through activation of the nuclear bile acid receptor farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and membrane G protein-coupled bile acid receptor-1 (Gpbar-1, aka TGR5).

Chemically engineering ligand selectivity at the free fatty acid receptor 2 based on pharmacological variation between species orthologs [PDF]
When it is difficult to develop selective ligands within a family of related G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), chemically engineered receptors activated solely by synthetic ligands (RASSLs) are useful alternatives for probing receptor function. In the

Gut microbiota regulates postprandial GLP-1 response via ileal bile acid-TGR5 signaling
The gut microbiota interacts with intestinal epithelial cells through microbial metabolites to regulate the release of gut hormones. We investigated whether the gut microbiota affects the postprandial glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) response using ...

The role of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 in bile acid homeostasis [PDF]
Bile acids (BAs) are important modulators of metabolic functions such as lipid, triglyceride and glucose homeostasis. Intrahepatic accumulation of BAs is known to cause liver injury in cholestatic conditions, where normal trans-hepatic BA flow is ...

Bile Acids Activated Receptors in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Once known exclusively for their role in nutrients absorption, bile acids have emerged as signaling molecules, generated from cholesterol breakdown, acting on several immune cells by activating a variety of receptors including the G protein-coupled bile ...
