Glucocorticoids modulate drug transporter function in human fetal brain endothelial cells

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend P‐glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein are the most prominent drug transporters at the fetal blood–brain barrier. We isolated primary human fetal brain endothelial cells from early and mid‐gestation cerebral microvessels and exposed them to glucocorticoids cortisol and dexamethasone in vitro.

A review of xenobiotic membrane transporter expression within the human placenta: Lessons gained from primary tissue and in vitro methodologies

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A summary of the current knowledge around membrane transporter expression in the most widely used in vitro models of human trophoblasts, including primary placental tissue, cancer cell lines and trophoblast stem cells, as well as the techniques to attempt to mimic the human placenta in vivo.

The Postprandial Chronobiome in Interorgan Glucose Homeostasis

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 4, August 2026.
The postprandial chronobiome framework proposes that meal‐timed oscillations in microbial communities and metabolites may interact with host tissue clocks to shape glucose handling. The liver is the best‐supported temporal interpreter, while phase‐aware human studies are needed to establish causal interorgan effects.

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.
