NTCP deficiency in mice protects against obesity and hepatosteatosis
Bile acids play a major role in the regulation of lipid and energy metabolism. Here we propose the hepatic bile acid uptake transporter Na + taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) as a target to prolong postprandial bile acid elevations in plasma.

Identification of NTCP animal orthologs supporting hepatitis B virus binding and infection
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a significant global health threat, resulting in more than 800,000 deaths annually. Since HBV naturally infects only humans and chimpanzees, the development and evaluation of new therapies for chronic HBV infection ...

Structure of antiviral drug bulevirtide bound to hepatitis B and D virus receptor protein NTCP
Cellular entry of the hepatitis B and D viruses (HBV/HDV) requires binding of the viral surface polypeptide preS1 to the hepatobiliary transporter Na+-taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP).
