Mutational characterization of the bile acid receptor TGR5 in primary sclerosing cholangitis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
TGR5, the G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1), has been linked to inflammatory pathways as well as bile homeostasis, and could therefore be involved in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) a chronic inflammatory bile duct disease. We aimed to

Bile Acids Activated Receptors in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

open access: yesCells, 2021
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 ...

TGR5 agonists induce peripheral and central hypersensitivity to bladder distension

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The mechanisms underlying chronic bladder conditions such as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) and overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) are incompletely understood.

Circulating Bile Acids in Liver Failure Activate TGR5 and Induce Monocyte DysfunctionSummary

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2021
Background & Aims: Retention of bile acids in the blood is a hallmark of liver failure. Recent studies have shown that increased serum bile acid levels correlate with bacterial infection and increased mortality.

GLP-2 receptor signaling controls circulating bile acid levels but not glucose homeostasis in Gcgr−/− mice and is dispensable for the metabolic benefits ensuing after vertical sleeve gastrectomy

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2018
Objective: Therapeutic interventions that improve glucose homeostasis such as attenuation of glucagon receptor (Gcgr) signaling and bariatric surgery share common metabolic features conserved in mice and humans. These include increased circulating levels

Dual FXR/TGR5 agonist BAR502 improves liver injury in both GPBAR1+/+ and GPBAR1-/- mice.

open access: yes, 2015
GPBAR1+/+ and GPBAR1-/- mice were treated for 10 days with ANIT or with the combination of ANIT plus BAR502. Serum levels of (A) bilirubin, (B) Alkaline phosphatase and (C) AST.

TGR5 controls bile acid composition and gallbladder function to protect the liver from bile acid overload

open access: yesJHEP Reports, 2021
Background & Aims: As the composition of the bile acid (BA) pool has a major impact on liver pathophysiology, we studied its regulation by the BA receptor Takeda G protein coupled receptor (TGR5), which promotes hepatoprotection against BA overload ...

Effects of BAR502 on scratching behavior in GPBAR1+/+ and GPBAR1-/- mice.

open access: yes, 2015
(A) GPBAR1+/+ and GPBAR1-/- mice were subjected to intradermal injection of DCA, TLCA, betulinic acid, oleanolic acid, PAR-2 agonist and BAR502. Each agent was tested at the dose of 25 μg.

Mechanistic insights into the detection of free fatty and bile acids by ileal glucagon-like peptide-1 secreting cells

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2018
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the electrical properties of ileal Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) secreting L-cells using murine organoid cultures and the electrophysiological and intracellular signaling pathways recruited following

Combinatorial therapy with BAR502 and UDCA resets FXR and GPBAR1 signaling and reverses liver histopathology in a model of NASH

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Non-alcoholic steatosis (NAFLD) and steatohepatitis (NASH) are two highly prevalent human disorders for which therapy remains suboptimal. Bile acids are signaling molecules acting on two main receptors the Farnesoid-x-receptor (FXR) and G protein coupled
