Activation of PXR by Alpinetin Contributes to Abrogate Chemically Induced Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Alpinetin is a naturally occurring flavonoid from the ginger plants. We previously reported the identification of alpinetin as a ligand of human pregnane X receptor (hPXR). The current study investigated the role of alpinetin as a putative PXR activator in ameliorating chemically induced inflammator...
