Monitoring the Effect of Tributyltin Salicylate and Propionate, Retinoid X Receptor Ligands, on Heat Shock Protein Expression in MDA‐MB‐231 Cells by MALDI MS/MS

open access: yesJournal of Mass Spectrometry, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2026.
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

open access: yesPharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 4, August 2026.
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.

The Role of Gut Microbiota in Liver Regeneration After Partial Hepatectomy: New Evidence From Animal and Human Studies

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 14, 31 July 2026.
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

open access: yesNuclear Receptor Research, 2016
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.

Generation of a PXR reporter human induced pluripotent stem cell line (PXR-mCherry hiPSC) using the CRISPR/Cas9 system

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2018
Pregnane X receptor (PXR) is a key nuclear receptor that mediates drug metabolism and stimulates hepatocyte proliferation. However, the lack of PXR expression in human pluripotent stem cell-derived hepatocytes limits their application for drug screening ...

Research Progress in Bile Acid Receptor-Mediated Improvement of Intestinal Health by Natural Products [PDF]

open access: yesShipin Kexue
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.

Pregnane X receptor activation constrains mucosal NF-κB activity in active inflammatory bowel disease.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
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 ...
