Xenobiotic-Sensing Nuclear Receptors CAR and PXR as Drug Targets in Cholestatic Liver Disease
Current Drug Targets, 11/03/09
Kakizaki S et al. – CAR and PXR have a protective effect on cholestasis by activating both detoxification enzymes and transporters. As a result, novel compounds targeting CAR and PXR with specific effects and fewer side effects will therefore be useful for the treatment of cholestatic liver diseases. This article will review the current knowledge on xenobiotic–sensing nuclear receptors CAR and PXR, while also discussing their potential role in the treatment of cholestatic liver diseases.
