ABSTRACT Organotin (IV) compounds are known to induce apoptosis via the intrinsic mitochondrial pathway, which is a key mechanism of effective anticancer therapy. Their ability to selectively promote apoptotic cell death highlights their potential as chemotherapeutic agents. In this study, the in vitro effects of two triorganotin compounds, tributyltin

Medications That Regulate Pregnane X Receptor: A Systematic Review of Current Evidence
PRISMA 2020 flow diagram of study selection for this systematic review of medications that regulate the pregnane X receptor (PXR), from 12 236 records screened to 101 included studies. ABSTRACT The pregnane X receptor (PXR) gene encodes a ligand‐activated protein involved with the metabolism and excretion of drugs, toxins, and other xenobiotics.

Partial hepatectomy (PH) reshapes gut microbiota composition, resulting in the release of microbial metabolites and components, including short chain fatty acids (SCFAs)/β‐hydroxybutyric acid (BHB), bacterial DNA and extracellular vesicles (EVs), bile acids (deoxycholic acid, DCA), and aminobenzoate degradation products.

Pregnane X Receptor and Cancer: Context-Specificity is Key
Pregnane X receptor (PXR) is an adopted orphan nuclear receptor that is activated by a wide-range of endobiotics and xenobiotics, including chemotherapy drugs. PXR plays a major role in the metabolism and clearance of xenobiotics and endobiotics in liver and intestine via induction of drug-metabolizing enzymes and drug-transporting proteins.

Research Progress in Bile Acid Receptor-Mediated Improvement of Intestinal Health by Natural Products [PDF]
Bile acids play an important role in intestinal health, and an imbalance in bile acid homeostasis is closely related to intestinal diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, bile acid diarrhea, and colorectal cancer.

BACKGROUND:The Pregnane X Receptor (PXR) is a principal signal transducer in mucosal responses to xenobiotic stress. It is well-recognized that inflammatory bowel disease is accompanied by xenobiotic stress, but the importance of the PXR in limiting ...
