Activation of PXR induces hypercholesterolemia in wild-type and accelerates atherosclerosis in apoE deficient mice[S]
The nuclear hormone receptor pregnane X receptor (PXR; also called SXR) functions as a xenobiotic sensor to coordinately regulate xenobiotic metabolism via transcriptional regulation of xenobiotic-detoxifying enzymes and transporters. Although many clinically relevant PXR ligands have been shown to...
