Nuclear Receptors and the Warburg effect in cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In 1927 Otto Warburg established that tumours derive energy primarily from the conversion of glucose to lactic acid and only partially through cellular respiration involving oxygen.

Role of farnesoid X receptor in hepatic steatosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

open access: yesBiomedicine & pharmacotherapy = Biomedecine & pharmacotherapie, 2019
With the increased incidence of obesity, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become a major global health concern. The pathogenesis of NAFLD has not yet been fully elucidated, and as few efficient pharmaceutical treatments are available for the ...

Current Cell/Organoid and Animal Models for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease with limited therapeutic options and a marked risk of progression to biliary fibrosis, cirrhosis, and malignancy. Progress in PSC research has been hindered by the lack of models that faithfully recapitulate the complex biliary microenvironment and disease heterogeneity ...

Screening for the efficacy on lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 cells is an effective tool for the identification of new anti-diabetic compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Reducing lipid accumulation in insulin target tissues is critical for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to develop a biochemical assay in cells for high throughput (HTP) screening of anti-diabetic drugs by reducing lipid accumulation via

When Fat Goes Astray: Your Liver and Pancreas Get Into Trouble

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and intrapancreatic fat deposition (IPFD) are both common manifestations of ectopic fat accumulation. Although they share multiple risk factors, they also show notable differences in pathological features, standardization of diagnosis, and research maturity.

Potential of Natural Products in the Inhibition of Adipogenesis through Regulation of PPARγ Expression and/or Its Transcriptional Activity

open access: yesMolecules, 2016
Obesity is a global health problem characterized as an increase in the mass of adipose tissue. Adipogenesis is one of the key pathways that increases the mass of adipose tissue, by which preadipocytes mature into adipocytes through cell differentiation ...

Post-translational modifications of lipid-activated nuclear receptors: Focus on metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Post-translational modifications (PTM) occur to nearly all proteins, are catalysed by specific enzymes and are subjected to tight regulation. They have been shown to be a powerful means by which the function of proteins can be modified resulting in ...

Farnesoid X receptor represses matrix metalloproteinase 7 expression, revealing this regulatory axis as a promising therapeutic target in colon cancer

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2019
The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of bile acid–activated transcription factors and an important regulator of cell proliferation, apoptosis, and Wnt signaling.

Phytochemicals in MASLD: A Focused Review of Gut Microbiome‐Linked Mechanisms

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has emerged as a major global health burden, yet effective pharmacological options remain limited. Recent advances highlight the gut microbiome as a key modulator of liver metabolism, inflammation, and fibrosis, making it a promising therapeutic target.
