Identification of FDA-approved drugs targeting the Farnesoid X Receptor

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) belongs to the nuclear receptor family and is activated by bile acids. Multiple, chemically rather diverse, FXR agonists have been developed and several of these compounds are currently tested in clinical trials for NAFLD ...

The emerging role of the Hippo signaling pathway in interorgan crosstalk

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Hippo signaling functions as a central hub of interorgan communication. Systemic cues from the gut, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle—including hormones, metabolites, and microbial signals—regulate YAP/TAZ activity in a tissue‐ and context‐dependent manner.

Retinoic acid represses CYP7A1 expression in human hepatocytes and HepG2 cells by FXR/RXR-dependent and independent mechanisms

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
Cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) plays a key role in maintaining lipid and bile salt homeostasis as it is the rate-limiting enzyme converting cholesterol to bile acids. Deficiency of CYP7A1 leads to hyperlipidemia in man and mouse.

Uninephrectomy-induced lipolysis and low-grade inflammation are mimicked by unilateral renal denervation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Uninephrectomy (UniNX) in rats on a fixed food intake leads to increased lipolysis and a low-grade inflammation with an increased subset of circulating cytokines.

Toward a Functional Cure for Chronic Hepatitis B: Current Landscape and Future Directions in Japan

open access: yesHepatology Research, EarlyView.
Hepatitis B is a viral liver infection that can become chronic, increasing the risk of developing liver cancer and liver failure. Because current treatments rarely cure these problems, researchers are now focusing on a functional cure in which the virus becomes undetectable in blood and stays that way, even after the treatment ends.

Thematic review series: The Pathogenesis of Atherosclerosis. Effects of infection and inflammation on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism mechanisms and consequences to the host1

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2004
Infection and inflammation induce the acute-phase response (APR), leading to multiple alterations in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. Plasma triglyceride levels increase from increased VLDL secretion as a result of adipose tissue lipolysis, increased de

TO901317 regulating apolipoprotein M expression mediates via the farnesoid X receptor pathway in Caco-2 cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Apolipoprotein M (apoM) may have potential antiatherosclerotic properties. It has been reported that apoM expression could be regulated by many intracellar and extracellar factors.

Evidence‐Based Clinical Practice Guidelines for Metabolic Dysfunction–Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) 2026

open access: yesHepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has emerged as the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, with an increasing number of patients progressing to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Early identification of individuals at high risk for advanced fibrosis is essential for preventing liver‐related ...

The Role of the Enterohepatic Circulation of Bile Salts and Nuclear Hormone Receptors in the Regulation of Cholesterol Homeostasis: Bile Salts as Ligands for Nuclear Hormone Receptors

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2003
The coordinated effect of lipid activated nuclear hormone receptors; liver X receptor (LXR), bound by oxysterol ligands and farnesoid X receptor (FXR), bound by bile acid ligands, act as genetic transcription factors to cause feed-forward cholesterol ...
