A novel panel of mouse models to evaluate the role of human pregnane X receptor and constitutive androstane receptor in drug response [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2008
The pregnane X receptor (PXR) and the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) are closely related orphan nuclear hormone receptors that play a critical role as xenobiotic sensors in mammals.

The protective role of pregnane X receptor in lipopolysaccharide/D-galactosamine-induced acute liver injury. [PDF]

open access: green, 2010
The pregnane X receptor (PXR) is a nuclear receptor transcription factor regulating drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters that facilitate xenobiotic and endobiotic detoxification.

Activation of Human Stearoyl-Coenzyme A Desaturase 1 Contributes to the Lipogenic Effect of PXR in HepG2 Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The pregnane X receptor (PXR) was previously known as a xenobiotic receptor. Several recent studies suggested that PXR also played an important role in lipid homeostasis but the underlying mechanism remains to be clearly defined.

Pregnane X receptor and constitutive androstane receptor modulate differently CYP3A-mediated metabolism in earlyand late-stage cholestasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
AIM: To ascertain whether cholestasis affects the expression of two CYP3A isoforms (CYP3A1 and CYP3A2) and of pregnane X receptor (PXR) and constitutive androstane receptor (CAR).
