Decreased expression of breast cancer resistance protein in the duodenum in patients with obstructive cholestasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background/Aims: The expression of transporters involved in bile acid homeostasis is differentially regulated during obstructive cholestasis. Since the drug efflux transporter breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is known to transport bile acids, we ...

Topical Intestinal Aminoimidazole Agonists of G-Protein-Coupled Bile Acid Receptor 1 Promote Glucagon Like Peptide-1 Secretion and Improve Glucose Tolerance [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2017
The role of the G-protein-coupled bile acid receptor TGR5 in various organs, tissues, and cell types, specifically in intestinal endocrine L-cells and brown adipose tissue, has made it a promising therapeutical target in several diseases, especially type-2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. However, recent studies have shown deleterious on-target effects

Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (TGR5) signaling pathways improved the hepatic lipid metabolism in hybrid grouper

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2022
In the present study, juvenile hybrid grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus♀ × E. lanceolatus♂) were intraperitoneally injected with taurocholic acid (I-TCA), obeticholic acid (FXR agonist, I-T747), guggulsterone (FXR antagonist, I-TGU), SBI-115 (TGR5 antagonist, I-TSBI), and INT-777 (TGR5 agonist, I-T777), respectively.

Regulators of G protein signalling proteins in the human myometrium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The contractile state of the human myometrium is controlled by extracellular signals that promote relaxation or contraction. Many of these signals function through G proteincoupled receptors at the cell surface, stimulating heterotrimeric G proteins and ...

Regulation of hepatic heme synthesis by drugs, bile acids and nutrition : a transcriptional network regulating [delta]-aminolevulinic acid synthase 1 (ALAS1) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
ALAS1 is the rate limiting enzyme of heme synthesis. It is highly inducible in liver in cases of increased heme demand, such as drug metabolism or in inducible hepatic porphyrias.

TGR5 Regulates Macrophage Inflammation in Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis by Modulating NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a chronic liver disease associated with dysregulation of liver metabolism and inflammation. G-protein coupled bile acid receptor 1 (TGR5) is a cell surface receptor that is involved in multiple metabolic pathways ...

Decoding TGR5: A comprehensive review of its impact on cerebral diseases

open access: yesPharmacological Research
Currently, unraveling the enigmatic realm of drug targets for cerebral disorders poses a formidable challenge. Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5), also known as G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1, is a specific bile acid receptor.

Bile acid signalling and its role in anxiety disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
Anxiety disorder is a prevalent neuropsychiatric disorder that afflicts 7.3%~28.0% of the world’s population. Bile acids are synthesized by hepatocytes and modulate metabolism via farnesoid X receptor (FXR), G protein-coupled receptor (TGR5), etc.

Role of High total protein in gallbladder bile in the formation of cholesterol gallstones. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
While it is generally accepted that cholesterol supersaturation of bile is of key importance in the rapid formation of cholesterol crystals, the role of total biliary protein and pH in the pathogenesis of cholesterol gallstones is less well understood ...
